For this guide I am using [OBSOLETE MOD] Adventure Leveling block[www.moddb.com]

Once you've downloaded your mod, extract zip. file. You should see .pak file(s)

Now we need to put them in correct place.

Open your start tab and look for RUN tool. In the tool type in %localappdata% and open it, then find Astro folder


In the Astro folder navigate to Local/Astro/Saved. Put the .pak file in Mods folder. If it's not there create it.



Once it's there, download Mod Manager

In order for mods to work, you will need Astroneer Mod Manager wich you can get here -> https://github.com/AstroTechies/astro_modloader/releases
After downloading zip. file of Mod manager extract it to your desktop or folder you will know how to quickly locate. Launch the Mod manager app.

If your PC doesn't let you launch A.M.M displaying meesage like This file came from another computer and might be blocked to help protect this computer. Right click on the file, navigate to properties and click "Unblock" then apply




After you've launched Mod Manager, you will be asked to find your game location inside the software. Simply using browse option find your game folder. You can easily find it by right clicking on ASTRONEER in your steam library, then choosing browse local files.




Usually path looks like:

Disk/SteamLibrary/Steamapps/common/ASTRONEER

Correct folder you need to select in the Mod Manager:



If the mods are in place your manager should display them

Once everything is in correct places, nice and working it's time to play.

In order to play with mods you need to launch ASTRONEER via mod manager.

Check or uncheck mods you want to use or disable, choose latest version of mods to ensure working and click play

I recommend you create backup/new save for mods just in case





Good job and enjoy!
