Getting Custom Content

You can get custom lots, households and mods from the Steam workshop, the Discord server and more.

Installing from Steam workshop

To install a mod or other custom content from the Steam workshop, all you have to do is select the item you want to install, and then press the big green "Subscribe" button! After a few seconds or after restarting the game, the item should appear in-game.

If there are any errors or your items don't appear in-game, it'll be logged in the most recent file in the Logs folder in the game folder.

Installing manually

Installing a mod or other custom content is pretty simple:

  • Find the Tiny Life folder by following this simple guide
  • Find the Mods (or Custom Lots, Custom Households or Custom Maps) folder in there
    • For mods, if you received it as a zip, just put it straight into the Mods folder. If it's any other kind of archive, you need to extract it first, and then you can put the mod's dll as well as its Content folder into the Mods folder.
    • For custom lots and households, simply put the json file(s) you received into the respective folder.
    • For custom maps, simply put the zip archive you received (or the three map files as described in the custom maps article) into the Custom Maps folder.

Done! Now just start the game and the added content should automatically load. Again, if there are any errors or your items don't appear in-game, it'll be logged in the most recent file in the Logs folder in the game folder.
