Looking to install mods on your V Rising server? Whether you're adding quality-of-life tweaks or diving into full gameplay overhauls, BepInEx is the tool you need. This guide walks you through enabling BepInEx on your V Rising server so you can start modding in just a few clicks.

⚠️ Important: BepInEx requires at least 8GB RAM to install properly. If you're on a package with less ram, it may fail to initialize. You may need to upgrade your server package before continuing.


Step 1: Open the Advanced Tab in Your Server Dashboard

Navigate to your server dashboard and click on the Advanced tab.

  • Select: V Rising (PC) - (v1.1 latest) - BepInEx
  • Click Change Edition

💡 Your server will restart automatically. This can take a few minutes—BepInEx is setting everything up behind the scenes.

Step 3: Verify BepInEx is Installed

Once your server restarts, go to the Files tab. You should now see a new folder named BepInEx.

  • Open the BepInEx folder
  • Inside it, you’ll find a folder called Plugins

This Plugins folder is where you'll upload your mod files.


Step 4: Download Mods from Thunderstore

Head to Thunderstore's V Rising page and browse available mods.

⚠️ Please note: We do not officially support or verify mods on Thunderstore. Use them at your own risk.


Step 5: Install Mods to Your Server

Each mod page usually includes install instructions, but in most cases:

  1. Download the mod files
  2. Upload them directly into the BepInEx/Plugins folder on your server

You can do this using the File Manager or via SFTP.


Step 6: Restart Your Server Again

After installing your mods, restart the server once more to make sure everything loads properly.


Step 7: Install BepInEx and Mods on Your Client

Mods won’t work unless your game client also has BepInEx and the same mods installed.

Here’s how:

  1. Download and install the BepInExPack for V Rising on your PC:
    👉 https://thunderstore.io/c/v-rising/p/BepInEx/BepInExPack_V_Rising/
  2. Place the downloaded files in your local V Rising installation directory
  3. Install any plugins your server is using into your local BepInEx/Plugins folder

❗ Both the server and the client must have the same mods installed for them to work properly in multiplayer.


You’re Done! Connect and Enjoy

Now connect to your modded V Rising server and enjoy your new setup. If something doesn’t seem to be working, double-check that:

  • The server and client both have BepInEx installed
  • All mods are compatible with the current game version
  • You’ve met the minimum RAM requirements
