  2. Locate Workshop ID & Mod ID:

    • Visit the Steam page of the mod(s) you've installed.
    • Scroll down until you find the section labeled "Workshop ID & Mod ID."

  3. Modify Configuration Files:

    • Open the configuration file located at "Zomboid\Server\servertest.ini."

    • Find the line that says: WorkshopItems=

    • Add the Workshop IDs in a semi-colon-separated string, as shown below:

      WorkshopItems=1234567890;1234567890
    • Next, locate the line: Mods=

    • Add the Mod IDs in a semi-colon-separated string, similar to Workshop IDs:

      Mods=ModName1;ModName2
  4. Save and Restart:

    • Save the changes you've made to the configuration file.
    • Restart your game server.

Your selected mods should now be activated and ready to use in the game!
