Installing Mods
To install mods on Ark, it is similar to other services we provide. First you will stop the server from the Overview/Console page.
- Click Ark
- Click Mod Manager
- Search for the mod by name and click install
Often times it is also best practice to go ahead and drag the mod to a different position in the list to make the configuration file update.
