How to Add Workshop Mods to Your Arma Reforger Server Print

Modding is a major part of the Arma Reforger experience, and Imperium Hosting fully supports the integration of Workshop mods on your dedicated server. This guide walks you through how to obtain mod details and properly configure them on your server.

Step 1: Obtain the Mod ID, Name, and Version

There are two ways to gather the information you’ll need to configure mods.

Method 1: From the Workshop Web Page

1. Visit the official Arma Reforger Workshop:
   https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop

2. Locate the mod you want to install

3. Copy down the following information:

   • modId (a long alphanumeric ID)

   • name (the mod’s title)

   • version (the current version number)

These values are usually displayed at the top of the mod page.

Method 2: From the Installed Mod’s ServerData.json

1. First, download the mod using the in-game Workshop browser

2. Navigate to your local mod installation folder:

   C:\Users\<YourUsername>\Documents\My Games\ArmaReforger\addons\
   

3. Open the folder for the mod you want to use

4. Locate and open the file named ServerData.json

5. Copy the values for the following fields:

   "id": "591AF5BDA9F7CE8B",
   "name": "Capture & Hold",
   "revision": {
     "version": "1.0.8"
   }
   

Step 2: Add the Mod(s) to Your Server Configuration

1. Log in to your Imperium Hosting Control Panel

2. Select your Arma Reforger server

3. Stop the server

4. Click on Configuration Files

5. Select the Config Editor for serverconfig.json

6. Locate the Mods section

Each mod must be added using the following format:

{"modId":"ID","name":"Mod Name","version":"1.0.0"}

Example – Single Mod

{"modId":"591AF5BDA9F7CE8B","name":"Capture & Hold","version":"1.0.8"}

Example – Multiple Mods

If you're using more than one mod, separate each with a comma, except the last one:

{"modId":"591AF5BDA9F7CE8B","name":"Capture & Hold","version":"1.0.8"},
{"modId":"59673B6FBB95459F","name":"BetterTracers","version":"1.0.5"},
{"modId":"5614E482BF83E310","name":"Sample Mod - New Car","version":"1.0.5"}

Step 3: Save and Start the Server

1. Click Save in the Config Editor

2. Go back to the Service Overview

3. Click Start to launch the server with the selected mods enabled
