How to Install Mods for FS25: Complete Guide

This guide covers installation procedures for all supported platforms.

Important Notes Before Starting

• .zip files for mods
• Avoid using “-” or “.” in mod filenames
• Use underscore “_” instead of hyphens or periods
• Download mods from trusted sources
• Ensure mods are compatible with FS25

Windows Installation Guide

For Windows 10/11:

1. Navigate to the mods folder:
   This PC\Documents\My Games\FarmingSimulator2025\mods
2. If the folder doesn’t exist, create it manually
3. Copy your .zip mod files directly into this folder
4. Do not unzip the files – the game handles this automatically

Common Windows Troubleshooting:

• Ensure you have sufficient storage space (the game requires a 45GB base)
• Verify your Windows user account has write permissions
• Check that antivirus software isn’t blocking mod installation

MacOS Installation Guide

Standard Version:

1. Navigate to:
   /Library/Application Support/FarmingSimulator2025/mods

App Store Version:

1. Use this directory instead:
   ~/Library/Containers/com.focus-home.farmingsim2025/Data/Library/Application Support/FarmingSimulator2025/mods

MacOS Tips:

• Use Command + Shift + G in Finder to quickly navigate to these folders
• Ensure you have proper permissions to modify these directories
• Keep mods in .zip format, don’t decompress them

Console Installation (PS5/Xbox)

1. Launch Farming Simulator 25

If mods aren’t working:

• Verify file names contain only letters, numbers, and underscores
• Check mod compatibility with your game version
• Ensure you meet minimum system requirements
