Trove’s modding community is one of our greatest assets. The creativity and passion shown by so many players allows endless customization and limitless imagination! To better support you, and your creations, we’re proud to bring modding to the Steam Workshop.
Mods are creations made by other players that allow you to customize how items in game look. There are mods for weapons, costumes, allies, mounts, and dragons!
Here is our Drumsticks mount, as it appears in game:
Here it is with the Ignerius, the Firebringer mod skin:
Placing community created mods into Trove has never been easier with the Steam Workshop!
Steam Workshop
Visit the Trove Workshop to browse through player-created mods. As you browse, you can rate them with a thumb’s up or thumb’s down, mark the mod as a Favorite, share a link to it on social media, and Subscribe to the mod.
Subscribing to a mod allows you to download and install it for use the next time you launch Trove. Disable a mod by pressing the Esc key, clicking the Mods button, then the Disable button for that specific mod. To remove a mod completely, Unsubscribe from it on the Workshop and it will be removed from your game files fairly quickly.
Mod Creators
To learn about the basics of creating your own mods please take a look at our TroveCreations Subreddit.
You can share a previously created .tmod file (new mod format), or a brand new mod, directly to the Workshop while in game. To get started make sure you launched Trove via Steam and your mod shows up in your Mods menu.
Uploading a Mod
Use this command to upload a new mod or make changes to an existing mod:
- /workshop upload title="the name of your mod" changes="any comment to describe the mod"
You’ll see upload progress announcements in your combat text log on the right side of the game window. If there are any issues you’ll get an error message explaining the problem.
Once the upload completes successfully the Steam overlay will pop up with the URL to view your mod in the Workshop. On that page you can add additional info about your mod or share it on social media.
For more info on uploading your own mods to the Workshop check out this guide on Trovesaurus.
Enter a world of limitless possibilities with Trove mods!
