Beyond official Frontiers


Mordhau uses Mod.io for its community content rather than the standard Steam Workshop. This allows for cross-platform mod support and more granular control over mod updates. To install a custom map, you must subscribe to it via the server config and use its internal name to load it.

1. Subscribing to Mods (Game.ini)

  1. Find the map you want on Mordhau Mod.io.
  2. Note the Resource ID (a series of numbers).
  3. Open Game.ini and locate the [Modivol.Modivol] section (or create it):
    [Modivol.Modivol]
    Mods=123456
    Mods=789012
    

2. Launching the Map

Adding the ID tells the server to download the files, but it does not tell the server to start the map.
  1. To change to the custom map in-game, use: changelevel U_InternalMapName
  2. Finding the Name: The internal name is often different from the Mod.io title (e.g., U_HelmsDeep for “Lord of the Rings - Helm’s Deep”). You can find this name in the mod’s description or by checking the server log on boot.
