Mods are typically distributed through Steam Workshop. However, since the game is also sold on other platforms, some people with a legitimate copy may be unable to access mods normally. We'll hope you are one of those.
Which mods can I install manually?[edit source]
RainDB now acts as a Workshop mirror with direct download links.
If a mod is not on RainDB for some reason[edit source]
To our knowledge, it is against Steam TOS to download workshop items for games you don't have. You have two options:
- Some authors provide non-Workshop download links in mod descriptions (usually hosted on GitHub).
- If there isn't a direct download link, you can instead ask someone with a Steam copy of the game to download the mod and send you the files. Workshop items are downloaded into subfolders
[steamlibrary]/steamapps/workshop/content/312520
(312520 is Rain World's steam appid). Subfolders are named by workshop item ID.
How do I install these mods?[edit source]
You take the files and put them into [Rain World]/RainWorld_Data/StreamingAssets/mods
so that modinfo.json
is directly in a subfolder. Exact mods
subfolder names do not matter, but it is a good idea to call them something sensible regardless.
Done, your mod should appear in Remix menu, be toggleable and work as normal.
