How to Install Custom Maps to your Mordhau Server

Custom Maps allow you to easily expand the content available on your Mordhau game server. Luckily, Shockbyte simplifies the Custom Map installation process due to our automatic Mod.io installation support.


Locating Custom Map Resource IDs

Before you can install a Mordhau mod.io Custom Map, you will need to locate the mod's page and copy its Resource ID.

  1. Navigate to the Mordhau mod.io page, filter maps only.
  2. Locate and select your desired custom map.
  3. Copy the Resource ID.

Automatically Installing a Custom Map

Custom Maps should be installed the same way as a mod, then added to the active map field or map rotation in your mordhau.properties file.

For this example, we will be installing the FFA_Hell map from mod.io.

  1. Access your control panel and Stop your server.
  2. Navigate to Files > Config Files.
  3. Click MORDHAU Server Settings.
  4. In the Active Mods field, enter the resource IDs of your desired custom map(s), separated by commas.
  5. Add the name of the custom map to your Map Rotation, or set it as your Server Map.
  6. Save and Start your server.
