Veronica Hohenheim Posted September 27, 2025 Report Posted September 27, 2025 How does mod updates work ? We need to manually download a patch for the game to update , does that mean also I need to go ahead and update every mod I have one by one and reinstall it ?

The game will flag outdated mods, and you'll need to update them manually. However, just because a mod is flagged as outdated doesn't mean it won't still function normally. Whether or not it functions as it should depends on what changed in the base game code between versions; always test outdated mods before using them on a permanent world. 1

Nyaaori Posted September 29, 2025 Report Posted September 29, 2025 For what it's worth, someone did make a mod updater tool and it's available on the moddb. Linux version: https://mods.vintagestory.at/modsupdaterforlinux Windows version: https://mods.vintagestory.at/modsupdater You should still make sure to look at changelogs of the mods you have as sometimes they'll need a few manual changes for updating worlds and/or their configs, but the tool here has been pretty helpful to me.
Kaldo Posted September 29, 2025 Report Posted September 29, 2025 There are quite a few community made tools for this. There is rustique if you like the terminal, but atm I'm using VS launcher which also lets you easily manage multiple different installations alongside their mods. It is not being developed actively as the creator is working on a big rewrite though, but so far it worked flawlessly for me.
