How to Install Workshop Mods on an Unturned Server

Copy the Workshop file ID

Open the item on Steam Workshop and copy the numeric ID from its URL. Confirm it is intended for Unturned and read its dependency list.

Edit WorkshopDownloadConfig.json

Stop the server and add IDs to File_IDs. Keep valid JSON syntax and do not add a trailing comma after the last value.

Configuration example

{
  "File_IDs": [
    1234567890,
    2345678901
  ],
  "Ignore_Children_File_IDs": []
}

Restart and verify

Start the server and let Steam finish each download. Read the console rather than assuming the mod loaded. Players joining the server should be prompted to download configured Workshop content automatically.

Common failures

Private items cannot normally be downloaded anonymously by the dedicated server. Also check deleted items, missing dependencies, incorrect IDs, disk space and file permissions.
