How to Install Mods on your Insurgency Sandstorm Server

Insurgency: Sandstorm server owners have a wide range of mods to choose from, including extra weapons and complete overhauls. Modding is an excellent way for servers to increase available content and provide a more unique experience for players.

Many mods can be found on mod.io and can be automatically installed onto your Shockbyte Insurgency: Sandstorm servers using the mod's Resource ID.
