It is time for the November 2024 Stable Update.

The tModLoader team and our amazing community of contributors continues to improve tModLoader. Once again this month's release contains many improvements to the user experience, some gameplay bug fixes, as well as new features with examples and documentation for mod makers.

We'd like to remind modders about the preview branch where we test new features before they arrive in stable the following month. Modders interested in new these features, listed both on our GitHub and in the #preview-update-log of our Discord, can join the preview branch to get early access to the new features and test them in their mods. We really appreciate the feedback from modders using the preview branch to try out the new features.

One feature we are currently previewing is additional support for modded tiles that react to wind and player movement, as some vanilla tiles do. Modders on the preview branch can test it out and make sure it works correctly for chandeliers, banners, vines, and other similar tiles.

As always, if you are having issues of any sort, definitely don't hesitate to check out our FAQ on GitHub[github.com] or reach out to us at our Discord[discord.com].

It is time for the April Fools 2024 Stable Update.

The tModLoader team and our amazing community of contributors continues to improve tModLoader.

This month we've fixed several issues, the most impactful being the issue with corrupted config.json files preventing the game from loading for some users. We hope this fix allows users experiencing this issue to continue playing tModLoader.

Notably, the mod loading and syncing logic has been reworked in this month's release. Users will see a new menu when joining a multiplayer server if mods need to be reloaded, explaining which mods will be downloaded, enabled, or disabled.
The new menu can be seen in the image below.

As well, mod loading speed has been improved by roughly 10%. We expect to see faster mod loading times and more consistent syncing of mods in multiplayer.

We would like to encourage modders to read the new Assets wiki page[github.com] and apply the contained guidelines to their mods. We have noticed that many mods are incorrectly using the Asset system, leading to slow mod loading as a result.

As always, if you are having issues of any sort, definitely don't hesitate to check out our FAQ on GitHub [github.com] or reach out to us at our Discord[discord.com].

It is time for the March 2024 Stable Update!

The tModLoader team and our amazing community of contributors continues to improve tModLoader. This month's release mainly contains bug fixes.

This month we've continued our work to harden multiplayer by updating the server host scripts, made several improvements to Mod Config support, and fixed a dozen or so bugs.

As always, if you are having issues of any sort, definitely don't hesitate to check out our FAQ on GitHub [github.com] or reach out to us at our Discord[discord.com].


This month we will be testing a major rework of how mods are loaded and synced on the [c]preview-v2024.02[/c] beta branch. When joining a server, a new menu will inform the user about pending mod downloads and config changes. Modders should read the How does this affect modders? section of the pull request[github.com]. Users will be happy to know that local mods will no longer override workshop mods, reducing potential errors from loading outdated mods significantly. The new UI will greatly help users avoid lengthy mod reloads in multiplayer. See this video[github.com] to see the new UI in action. We hope to perfect this user experience in anticipation for next months release.
