How to manage a Reforger mod list

Each entry in game.mods needs at least a modId. A name is optional but keeps the file readable, and a version pins the mod instead of using the latest release. The adding mods guide covers the format in detail, and the server mods guide explains dependencies and update behavior.

How to find Workshop mod IDs

Search by mod name on this page, paste an ID from the official Workshop, or open the Arma Reforger Mods Browser to inspect mod detail pages and copy IDs.

How mod ordering works

The server handles required dependencies, but a consistent order helps admins review and maintain the file. Use the controls to move entries into a readable order before export.

How duplicate mods are handled

The shared validator checks for repeated modId values so you can remove duplicates before restart. Keeping one entry per Workshop ID avoids confusion over version pins and required flags.

How dependencies are shown

The dependency check compares your current list with dependency metadata from public Workshop pages. It suggests missing entries when data is available, but you decide what to add.

How to export the mods array

Copy only the game.mods array for an existing config, or download the full shared config.json. Validate the finished file with the Arma Reforger Config.json Validator.

Related tools

This list is the same working config used by the config generator, so you can switch between the focused mods view and the full config editor at any time. When the list is final, validate the whole file with the config validator.

Frequently asked questions

How do mods get into this list?

Search Workshop mods by name right on this page, paste a Workshop ID, use Add to Config from the mod browser, or import an existing config.json in the config builder. All of them edit the same working config in your browser.

Does mod order in config.json matter?

The server resolves dependencies on its own, but a readable order helps humans maintain the list. This tool lets you reorder entries and keeps the order you choose in the exported JSON.

Can it add missing dependencies automatically?

It checks dependencies using Workshop data and lists anything your config does not include, but it only suggests additions. Dependency data comes from public Workshop pages and can lag behind, so you stay in control of what is added.
