Where Does Grounded Store Mods?

Grounded mods are Unreal pak files in a ~mods folder under Content Paks. Verify the project folder name on the mod page per build.

Last updated

Grounded runs on Unreal Engine 4, so modding follows the engine's pak convention with a ~mods folder inside Content Paks. The game ships without it, so create it once and drop pak files inside. Quality of life tweaks and building conveniences lead the scene.

Project folder names can vary between store builds, so confirm the tree on the mod's download page and treat the tail from Content onward as the stable part. Backyard survival saves run long, so copy the save tree before experimenting. Shared worlds need identical mod sets on every client.

Manually created tilde folder for pak files. Confirm the project folder name per build on the mod page. Mirror mod sets across shared world players.

Frequently asked questions

The mod stopped working after an update. Why?

Confirm the tilde, the pak placement, and patch compatibility. Backyard updates bump the engine build mods target, so stale paks fail quietly. The mod page lists supported versions.

Do mods work in shared worlds?

Yes when every player runs the identical set, no when versions drift. Shared world saves demand matching content on all sides. Test new mods on a creative world before the main survival save.
