The best Palworld mods start with two frameworks, UE4SS and PalSchema, and build out from there into minimaps, Pal info readouts, breeding planners, bigger and better organized bases, quality of life tweaks and server tools. The 100 below are the most popular mods for Palworld on PC, picked from Nexus Mods endorsements and Steam Workshop subscriptions and grouped by what they change. Every entry says what it needs, and the older favorites say when their pages were last updated, so you can tell which ones may be waiting on their creators.
Most mods here need UE4SS, many also need PalSchema, and Palworld patches arrive often, so check each creator’s page for an update after every patch before loading your world. Install steps come after the list, and the rest of our coverage lives on the Palworld guides hub.
Frameworks and Essentials
1. UE4SS Experimental (Palworld)
UE4SS is the script loader that most Palworld mods run on: it loads Lua, C++ and Blueprint mods and gives modders the tools to hook into the game. This is the Palworld-specific build, re-hosted on the Workshop with a small config file the game needs to avoid crashes. Its page warns never to run the Workshop and Nexus copies together, because loading two copies of UE4SS crashes the game. Creator: the RE-UE4SS team (Workshop upload by Okaetsu). Download: UE4SS Experimental (Palworld) on the Steam Workshop.
2. PalSchema
PalSchema lets mods change Palworld’s data tables and blueprints through small JSON files instead of replacing whole game files, so two mods can edit the same asset without one silently cancelling the other. Its author says this also makes mods less likely to break when the game updates. Several mods further down this list, including Expanded Storage and Smaller Plantations, depend on it. Creator: Okaetsu. Needs: UE4SS. Download: PalSchema on the Steam Workshop.
3. Mod Config Menu (UI)
Mod Config Menu adds an in-game settings screen, styled after Palworld’s own menus, that edits the config files of the mods that support it, so you can change hotkeys and options without opening a text file. Several mods on this list use it, including Basic MiniMap, Pal IVs, Pal Info and Remote Palbox. Its page asks for UE4SS version 3 or newer and says it is client-side only, so it never goes on a server. As of October 2026 its page was last updated in January 2025, before 1.0, so read its recent comments before you install it. Creator: Dekita. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Mod Config Menu (UI) on Nexus Mods.
4. Automatically Skip Mod Caution
With mods turned on, Palworld shows a mod caution dialog that you have to click OK on every time. This small mod skips it automatically, which is why it is one of the most subscribed mods on the Workshop. Its Workshop page lists it as updated for game version 1.0.3. Creator: AYNJ. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Automatically Skip Mod Caution on the Steam Workshop.
5. Stutter Fix Pack
Stutter Fix Pack targets specific hitches rather than promising a general frame rate boost. Per its page, it reduces stutter when you vacuum up piles of dropped resources, loot field chests, aim while sprinting, fire weapons with Pals in your party, or kill several enemies at once, by skipping redundant party passive checks. Its creator is upfront that it will not fix every source of stutter. Creator: SolTeLu. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Stutter Fix Pack on the Steam Workshop.
6. Stutter Fix
Stutter Fix is an Engine.ini preset aimed at texture streaming and VRAM stutter, and its page says it helps most on PCs with little video memory or a slow hard drive. A separate no-streaming version is for cards with plenty of VRAM. Its creator is upfront about the trade-off: image quality can dip at times in exchange for steadier frame times. As of October 2026 its page was last updated in February 2024, and since it is a config preset rather than a script or pak mod, undoing it only means removing its Engine.ini changes. Creator: TheHybred. Download: Stutter Fix on Nexus Mods.
7. Less Loading
Less Loading cuts the dead time when you fast travel or move between areas. Its creator explains that the game waits for fade animations and several streaming events before handing control back, and this mod removes the fades and returns control sooner while leaving the actual loading logic alone. It needs no other mods, does not have to be on a server to work in multiplayer, and its creator says it does not touch save files. Creator: Dom. Download: Less Loading on the Steam Workshop.
Map and Exploration
8. MapUnlocker
MapUnlocker is the most endorsed Palworld mod on Nexus, with more than 9,000 endorsements. It removes the fog of war from the whole world map so you can plan routes, but fast travel points stay locked until you find them yourself. Its page confirms it works on Palworld 1.0 and explains that the clouds over Sunreach Island are a separate story effect, not fog of war, so they stay. Creator: W1ns. Download: MapUnlocker on Nexus Mods.
9. Map Collectables Overhauled
This is a native C++ rewrite of the long-running Map Collectables mod, rebuilt for 1.0. It puts Lifmunk Effigies, lore notes, ancient ruins, dungeons, chests, eggs, fruit trees and all nine ore types on your world map and compass, with an in-game settings panel, presets and collected-out-of-total counters. With close to 500,000 subscriptions, it is one of the most popular mods on the Workshop. Creator: Krosstak. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Map Collectables Overhauled on the Steam Workshop.
10. Remote Fast Travel
Remote Fast Travel lets you fast travel from the world map wherever you are, instead of walking to a statue first, but only to destinations you have already unlocked. It is a lightweight Lua mod with no save file changes, and its page says it was built and tested for Palworld 1.0 and runs client-side in multiplayer. Creator: 醒醒. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Remote Fast Travel on the Steam Workshop.
11. HD Map Texture
A simple, popular visual fix: its author found the vanilla world map displays a lower-detail version of its texture, and this mod swaps in a sharper version so terrain and landmarks read clearly when you zoom in. Version 7, released for 1.0, scales back its upscaled icons because the 1.0 map already ships with higher resolution icons. Separate files cover the Steam and Game Pass versions. Creator: notrustk. Download: HD Map Texture on Nexus Mods.
12. Basic MiniMap
Basic MiniMap puts a small, configurable minimap in the corner of the screen that hides itself in battle and zooms in when you are in caves or under trees. With close to 6,000 endorsements it is one of the most endorsed Palworld mods on Nexus, and it works in single-player and online play from the client side. As of October 2026 its page was last updated in December 2024, before 1.0, so it may be waiting on an update; YetAnotherMinimap and PalMiniMap, next on this list, are newer alternatives. Creator: Dekita. Needs: UE4SS, plus Mod Config Menu for its settings. Download: Basic MiniMap on Nexus Mods.
13. YetAnotherMinimap
YetAnotherMinimap draws a round or square minimap that shows Pals, eggs, treasure, fast travel towers, dungeons, relics and notes, with its own settings menu for choosing what appears. It can rotate with the camera or keep north up, hides itself inside your base, and has a super zoom mode on Z. Its creator says it was inspired by Paldar, an older minimap that is no longer available from its original author. Creator: SvenBrnn. Needs: UE4SS. Download: YetAnotherMinimap on the Steam Workshop.
14. PalMiniMap
PalMiniMap takes a different approach: instead of rendering the world a second time, it draws the game’s own world map texture in a corner of the screen, which its creator says keeps it light on frame time. It shows Pals with their portraits (or only shiny ones), human NPCs, other players, chests, eggs, effigies, skill fruit trees, dungeons and fast travel points, and hides anything you have already collected. The whole mod is one UE4SS Lua script with no pak file, so there is little for it to conflict with. Creator: jeankassio. Needs: UE4SS. Download: PalMiniMap on Nexus Mods.
15. Effigy Beacons
Effigies are easy to walk past, and Effigy Beacons puts the tall death-marker beacon over every effigy you have not collected yet, so you can spot them from a distance. You still have to travel to each one and pick it up, which its creator says keeps collecting from feeling trivial. It is client-side, so every player who wants the beacons installs it, and Alt+F7 toggles them. Creator: Dossicles. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Effigy Beacons on the Steam Workshop.
16. Glider Restoration
Glider Restoration brings back something patch 0.5.5 took away: with it, a boosted glider looks like your glider Pal again, so you are back to flying with Celaray or Galeclaw while that Pal is in your party. You still need a glider in your inventory, and its creator admits it is not a perfect recreation, since some sounds differ and a few gliders sit slightly off. It has more than 100,000 Workshop subscriptions. Creator: Primarinabee. Needs: UE4SS, PalSchema. Download: Glider Restoration on the Steam Workshop.
17. Remove Flying Stamina Cost
This mod does exactly what its name says: flying mounts stop draining your stamina, so long flights across the map no longer need rest stops. With more than 4,500 endorsements it is among the most endorsed Palworld mods on Nexus, and its page says it works on dedicated servers when both the server and the player have it. As of October 2026 its page was last updated in February 2024, long before 1.0, and Pocketpair has warned that mods left installed since 2024 can crash the game, so try it on a backed-up save. Creator: Vuxacha. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Remove Flying Stamina Cost on Nexus Mods.
18. Infinite Wings
The Wing Pack burns Wing Cells as fuel, and Infinite Wings makes them last forever. You still need at least one cell in your inventory, and its creator points out that the fuel meter will not show an infinity symbol; that only appears in the mod’s logo. Creator: Stephenr. Needs: UE4SS, PalSchema. Download: Infinite Wings on the Steam Workshop.
19. No Grappling Gun Cooldown Timer
This sets the cooldown on every grappling gun to zero, or to any value you put in its config file, so you can grapple again the moment you land. It has more than 1,800 endorsements. As of October 2026 its page says it was working as of game version 0.4.12 and was last updated in February 2024, so treat it as untested on the current version. Creator: ImPleby. Needs: UE4SS. Download: No Grappling Gun Cooldown Timer on Nexus Mods.
20. Better Riding
Ground mounts in vanilla Palworld snag on small rocks and need constant jumping on steep slopes, per this mod’s page. Better Riding makes their movement over obstacles and steep terrain fluid while keeping it believable, and its page lists it as ready for v1.0.4 on Steam, Game Pass and dedicated servers. Its creator does not permit Workshop uploads of their mods, so get it from Nexus. Creator: Caites. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Better Riding on Nexus Mods.
Pals, Catching and Fishing
21. Pal Info Simple HUD
Aim at a Pal and this mod shows an info card with its HP, Attack, Defense, work speed, IVs, gender, elements, active and passive skills, work suitability, item drops and capture progress. It detects your game language automatically, and a settings menu lets you switch to showing the card only while holding Left Alt. It is client-side, so nothing goes on the server. Creator: ge.rnd. Download: Pal Info Simple HUD on the Steam Workshop.
22. Pal Analyzer
Pal Analyzer is the most endorsed Pal information mod on Nexus, with close to 8,000 endorsements. Hold Left Alt (or the right bumper) and wild Pals show their stats above their heads, but the details unlock as you go: attack and defense right away, active skills after five captures of a species and passive skills after ten, so it feels like a vanilla system rather than a cheat sheet. Every setting is adjustable from its own menu, it is client-side only, and its Workshop listing says it was updated for v1.0.5 in September 2026. Creator: ThisIsZac. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Pal Analyzer on Nexus Mods.
23. Pal IVs
From the same creator, Pal IVs shows each Pal’s hidden Individual Values next to its stats in the game’s menus. Its page explains that IVs run from 0 to 100 and that a 100 IV gives that stat a 30 percent bonus, which is why breeders chase them. As of October 2026 its page was last updated in February 2025, before 1.0. Creator: ThisIsZac. Needs: UE4SS, plus Mod Config Menu for its settings. Download: Pal IVs on Nexus Mods.
24. Pal Info
Pal Info is the other long-running wild Pal readout, and its card adds things the others skip: how many of that species you have caught, how many are in your Palbox, its IVs and passive skills, plus an optional research and progression system. Shift+O toggles it, and it is client-side, so it works on servers without being installed there. As of October 2026 its page was last updated in February 2025, before 1.0. Creator: InhumanityMods. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Pal Info on Nexus Mods.
25. Visible Pal Capture Counter
If you are chasing capture bonuses or completing the Paldeck, this small mod shows how many of a Pal you have already caught right next to its name, so you know at a glance whether it is worth another sphere. It has more than 2,700 endorsements and was updated on July 12, 2026, two days after 1.0. Separate instructions cover Steam and Game Pass. Creator: jsthope. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Visible Pal Capture Counter on Nexus Mods.
26. Capture Bosses
Capture Bosses lets you catch boss Pals that the game normally will not let you sphere. Its creator caught tower bosses with Legendary Spheres, since the capture rate still depends on the sphere, but reports that a raid boss caught this way came out invalid, so raid bosses are a gamble. It was updated on July 13, 2026, three days after 1.0 launched. Creator: yakuzadeso. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Capture Bosses on Nexus Mods.
27. 100 Percent Pal Capture Rates
For players who are done with sphere roulette, this mod makes every capture succeed and raises every Pal’s work suitabilities to level 8. It comes in three versions, and its page says tower, raid and predator bosses also need the creator’s separate boss capture mod. It was last updated in August 2026. Creator: Gantz79. Download: 100 Percent Pal Capture Rates on Nexus Mods.
28. Recover Pal Spheres
Missed throws stop costing you spheres. A hand-thrown sphere that misses becomes a pickup where it lands, misses from the Sphere Launcher and Homing Sphere Launcher are recovered too, and spheres that land underwater or out of reach go straight back to your inventory. Its page says version 2.0 was confirmed working on Palworld 1.0.2 with full multiplayer support. Creator: VykosX. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Recover Pal Spheres on the Steam Workshop.
29. FSS: Full Sphere Summon
Full Sphere Summon brings back throwing your Pal Sphere to summon a Pal, with collision, hit effects and knockback, and a thrown Pal pulls aggro from the wild Pal it hits even in Defensive mode. You aim by holding the summon button and can swap active Pals with the mouse wheel. It works in hosted worlds and on dedicated servers as a client-only install, per its page. Creator: MatthewOfJadeSpear. Needs: UE4SS. Download: FSS: Full Sphere Summon on the Steam Workshop.
30. Pal Squad: All Out!
Pal Squad lets all five Pals in your party fight at the same time instead of one. F1 to F5 summon or recall individual Pals, Ctrl+Z recalls your whole squad, and version 1.6.0 fixed multiplayer commands crossing between players. In multiplayer, its page says the host or server and every player need the exact same version. Creator: YANG. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Pal Squad: All Out! on the Steam Workshop.
31. True Mercy
The Mercy Ring, Pal Tamer’s Glasses and the Mercy Hit passive stop you from knocking a Pal below 1 HP, but a burn or poison tick can still finish it off before your sphere lands. True Mercy closes that gap: burn and poison still hurt, but they cannot take the last point while Mercy applies, and capture rates and damage are unchanged. It installs on whatever runs the world, so a dedicated server needs it and players joining do not. Creator: SSyl. Needs: UE4SS. Download: True Mercy on the Steam Workshop.
32. Remove Pal Revive Timer
Knocked-out Pals normally spend a long time recovering in the Palbox before they can fight again. This mod cuts that revive timer, though you still have to put the downed Pal in the Palbox. It has more than 2,300 endorsements, and as of October 2026 its page was last updated in February 2024, before 1.0, so test it on a backed-up save first. Creator: Vuxacha. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Remove Pal Revive Timer on Nexus Mods.
33. Pal List Searchbar
Scrolling through Palbox pages for one Pal gets old fast. This mod adds a search bar to Pal lists that sorts and highlights matches, and it works in the Palbox, Global storage, the Expedition and Condenser menus, merchants and the Palpedia, with highlighting in Dimensional storage. It is client-side and works in every language. Creator: nextrg. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Pal List Searchbar on the Steam Workshop.
34. Remote Palbox
Remote Palbox opens your nearest Palbox from anywhere with one key (K by default), so you can swap party Pals in the field. It stays blocked while riding, as in vanilla, and inside dungeons, which its creator says avoids a dangerous bug. On dedicated servers you press Insert first, and it only needs to be on your own PC. Creator: Atomic. Needs: UE4SS, plus Mod Config Menu to change its options. Download: Remote Palbox on the Steam Workshop.
35. PalSync
PalSync lets you fuse with your Pals and play as them. Equip a Pal’s Synchro Ready skin at the Pal Dressing Facility, press Ride, and you take full control, with bonuses to attack and defense and much shorter cooldowns. Its page says more than 70 Pals are supported, that since 1.0 the sync bonus comes from a three-tier Synchronization passive, and that it adds nine new passives to the random pool. Creator: Primarinabee. Needs: UE4SS, PalSchema. Download: PalSync on the Steam Workshop.
36. Always Win Fishing
This mod fixes the two complaints players have about fishing: the minigame and the wait for spots to refill. The green bar covers the whole judgment area, so catches land reliably, and pressing F9 toggles much faster fishing spot respawns. Its page stresses that fish, Alpha and material rewards are unchanged, so you catch faster but the loot tables stay the same. Creator: 润就完事了. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Always Win Fishing on the Steam Workshop.
New Pals and Variants
37. Pal Variant Paldemonium
Paldemonium adds 50 new Pal subspecies that are woven into the game rather than dropped in: each has its own look, partner skill and passive, and they turn up in the wild, in breeding, at merchants and as bosses. Its page also lists 35 new base raid events, 23 new overworld boss encounters, 21 new partner skill items in the technology tree and 7 new foods. Creator: DeadFishPRO. Needs: UE4SS, PalSchema. Download: Pal Variant Paldemonium on the Steam Workshop.
38. Palvolve
Palvolve adds evolution: hold 4 to open a wheel, pick Evolve, and a captured Pal turns into a related form while keeping everything it earned. At the end of its line a Pal can prestige back to level 1, up to ten times, and version 2.0 added fusion, either for 60 seconds in a fight or permanently at a Fusion Altar. Its creator says it was tested on Palworld 1.0.5 in single-player, co-op and on dedicated servers. Creator: DooDesch. Needs: UE4SS, PalSchema. Download: Palvolve on the Steam Workshop.
39. One of a Kind: Pal Variant Overhaul
One of a Kind, often called the OK Overhaul, is a framework that gives Pals alternate looks based on their passive skills, so a Lucky or Legend Pal can wear its own texture or model, and variant packs from other creators, such as Txoba’s Shiny Lucky Pals, plug into it. Version 2.0 made it fully client-side and dropped the need for UE4SS. As of October 2026 its page was last updated in April 2024, and its creator says they can no longer update it, so it may not run on the current version. Creator: Sora101Ven. Download: One of a Kind: Pal Variant Overhaul on Nexus Mods.
Breeding and Passive Skills
40. Smart Breeding Planner
Press F8 and this planner works out breeding routes from the Pals you actually own: pick a target Pal and the passives you want, and it builds a multi-generation tree with the genders you need and estimated egg counts. It can also send both parents straight to a Breeding Farm, show every farm’s progress and remaining Cake, and pin where to catch a missing Pal on your map. Its creator stresses that it never changes Pal stats. Creator: PPF. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Smart Breeding Planner on the Steam Workshop.
41. Auto Hatch
Auto Hatch takes the busywork out of late-game breeding: eggs from a Breeding Farm go straight into an empty incubator, and when they are ready they hatch and the Pal goes to your Palbox, so two assigned parents keep producing as long as there is cake. Its Workshop page says it was updated for 1.0 and works with the Ancient Hatchery and with Grintale and Broncherry partner skills. Dedicated servers need the separate server version from its Nexus page. Creator: Atomic. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Auto Hatch on the Steam Workshop.
42. Instant Breed Farm
This makes breeding at the Breeding Farm or the Ancient Hatchery instant. One version still uses cake, and another swaps the Special Cake requirement for berries, which takes most of the grind out of chasing perfect passives. Its page says to use only one version at a time. Creator: Gantz79. Download: Instant Breed Farm on Nexus Mods.
43. Low Cost Pals Condensation
Condensing Pals to raise their rank normally eats a lot of duplicates. This mod cuts the cost to a single Pal at every level or, in its alternate version, to 2, 4, 6 and 8, and its page explains a workaround for Pals you already condensed with more than four before installing it. It was updated in September 2026. Creator: Gantz79. Download: Low Cost Pals Condensation on Nexus Mods.
44. GY_ChangePassiveSkill
Instead of breeding for perfect passives, this lets you edit them: press H to open a menu for your current Pal, change its passive skills and save. Its page says it was adapted for the full 1.0 release on July 10, 2026, and it has more than 1,600 endorsements. Creator: GuYing333. Needs: UE4SS. Download: GY_ChangePassiveSkill on Nexus Mods.
45. Azomer’s Passive Skill Expansion
Azomer’s Passive Skill Expansion, or APSE, roughly doubles Palworld’s passive skills, from 114 to 222, including 10 new breeding mutation passives and 8 new World Tree passives, covering everything from work speed to health and jump power. It also changes how passives roll on wild Pals so rare ones feel earned, and reworks purely negative vanilla passives into trade-offs. If you have not reached it yet, our guide to getting to the World Tree covers the route. Creator: Azomer. Needs: UE4SS, PalSchema. Download: Azomer’s Passive Skill Expansion on the Steam Workshop.
Base Building
46. Less Restrictive Building (for 1.0)
The go-to building mod since early access, now updated for 1.0. It allows floating foundations, building on steep terrain, overlapping objects, and building over water with wood instead of the Aquatic Construction Kit. It also removes the height cap and object limits. The UE4SS version adds building near your Palbox and placing bases in normally restricted areas. Creator: Caites. Download: Less Restrictive Building on Nexus Mods.
47. Base Radius Improved
Instead of one flat bigger radius, Base Radius Improved grows your base area as the base levels up: 5 percent per level by default, from 35 meters at level 1 to about 94 meters at the level 35 cap that 1.0 introduced. The blue boundary dome resizes to match, and a config file lets you set the exact radius for every level. Creator: nossr50. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Base Radius Improved on the Steam Workshop.
48. Vertically Stackable Storage, Farms and Pal Beds
Floor space in a busy base goes fast. This mod lets you stack storage chests, crop plantations and Pal beds directly on top of each other with no shelves or racks, and its page lists six chest types, eight plantations and five beds as supported. Its creator says to try building even when the blueprint shows a red overlap warning. It is designed for single-player, and its page says it is unlikely to work on dedicated servers, which check building placement themselves. Creator: jhoik1023. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Vertically Stackable Storage, Farms and Pal Beds on the Steam Workshop.
49. Building Enhanced (Free Camera)
Building a big base from your character’s eye level is fiddly. This mod detaches the camera in build and dismantle mode inside a base camp, so you can fly around freely, place and remove pieces at the reticle without your character in the way, and snap or dismantle from 15 times farther away. It supports keyboard and gamepad and is client-side. Creator: Will. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Building Enhanced (Free Camera) on the Steam Workshop.
50. BaseShift
BaseShift moves furniture, storage, production facilities and even your Palbox without dismantling them, so nothing is lost and no materials are spent. Enter Dismantle or Move in build mode, press F7 to pick up an object, position the blue preview and press F7 again to place it. For multiplayer, its page says the server and every player need the same version. Creator: PTSolar. Needs: UE4SS. Download: BaseShift on the Steam Workshop.
51. Nudge Until Totally Satisfied
For builders who care about alignment, Nudge Until Totally Satisfied lets you look at any placed structure, from a workbench to a wall or roof, press H, and nudge or rotate it with the arrow keys. Ctrl makes bigger moves, Alt makes tiny ones, and Escape cancels and puts the piece back where it was. Creator: Syzzle. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Nudge Until Totally Satisfied on the Steam Workshop.
52. Smaller Plantations
Smaller Plantations shrinks every crop plantation to the footprint of the Berry plantation, which is roughly one foundation. Farms take far less space and snap neatly onto a foundation grid. It has more than 180,000 Workshop subscribers and was last updated in July 2026, after 1.0. Its creator notes that multiplayer and dedicated servers are not officially supported. Creator: Syzzle. Needs: UE4SS, PalSchema. Download: Smaller Plantations on the Steam Workshop.
53. Base Trimmer
Grass and lavender poking through foundations make a tidy base look messy. Base Trimmer clears decorative plants around your buildings, both on existing bases when you load in and on new pieces as you place them, with a config file for the radius and plant types. It is client-side, and its creator notes the grass can look slightly different from vanilla for now. Creator: ppepsaa. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Base Trimmer on the Steam Workshop.
54. Crude Oil Extractor Build Anywhere
Crude oil normally means building on an oil field. This mod lets you place the Crude Oil Extractor anywhere inside your base instead, and it was updated on July 10, 2026, the day 1.0 launched. On a server, its page says both the server and players install it. Creator: Gantz79. Download: Crude Oil Extractor Build Anywhere on Nexus Mods.
55. All the Bases
All the Bases raises the base limit per guild to 128, the default maximum for a whole server, so a group can share one guild while everyone keeps their own bases. It is a single pak file that servers must install too. As of October 2026 its page was last updated in January 2024, and its creator warns that it had little testing and to make a backup before installing. Creator: BaronKiko. Download: All the Bases on Nexus Mods.
Storage, Inventory and Base Pals
56. Expanded Storage (8x Vanilla)
Expanded Storage multiplies the slots in supported chests and Inventory Expansion Bags by eight, so large production bases stop drowning in half-full boxes. Its creator also publishes 2x and 4x versions if eight is too generous. One catch from its page: existing chests do not upgrade, so dismantle and replace them after you enable the mod. Creator: Chistix. Needs: UE4SS, PalSchema. Download: Expanded Storage (8x Vanilla) on the Steam Workshop.
57. Integrate All Camp Storage
This mod links every base your guild owns into one shared material pool, so building or crafting at any camp can pull from chests at every other camp. That ends the chore of shuttling ingots and wood between bases. It is a 1.0 rewrite built on UE4SS that works in single-player and on dedicated servers, and its page says it writes nothing to your save. Creator: Sarfflow. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Integrate All Camp Storage on Nexus Mods.
58. Guild Storage Expander
The Guild Chest holds 54 items by default. This mod raises it to 444, a number its creator arrived at by counting every distinct material used across the game’s 1,414 crafting recipes and 498 building recipes, so one chest can hold one of each. It has no dependencies, only the server needs it, and its page says removing it never shrinks a chest or deletes what is inside. Creator: Walkman. Download: Guild Storage Expander on the Steam Workshop.
59. Bigger PalBox
Bigger PalBox raises your Palbox’s capacity, with versions from 480 to 3,840 slots, or spreads the slots across more pages if you prefer smaller boxes. Its page says you can change the size freely in single-player but need a new character on a dedicated server, and that reconstructing from the Global Palbox only works into the first 16 pages. It is listed as ready for v1.0.4. Creator: Caites. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Bigger PalBox on Nexus Mods.
60. Super Stacks No Lag
Its creator explains that a Pal mining for ten minutes can leave a hundred separate ore drops on the ground, each one an object the game has to track. Super Stacks No Lag turns on Palworld’s own item merging even while you are standing in your base, so drops collapse into a few stacks next to where they fell, which noticeably reduces lag in busy bases, per its page. It changes only existing values through PalSchema, with no new scripts. Creator: Kroos. Needs: UE4SS, PalSchema. Download: Super Stacks No Lag on the Steam Workshop.
61. Infinite Weight In Camp
Stand inside your base camp and weight limits disappear. Step outside and normal carry rules apply again, so this cuts out inventory juggling at home without trivializing exploration. Version 3.0.3, updated in July 2026, fixed a long-running bug where the mod quietly stopped working mid-session, and it now works however you arrive at camp, including by fast travel or mount. Creator: qais. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Infinite Weight In Camp on Nexus Mods.
62. Carry Weight Increase
With more than 6,400 endorsements, Carry Weight Increase is one of the most endorsed Palworld mods on Nexus. It raises how much you can carry and can also cut the weight of items. As of October 2026 its page was last updated in February 2024, well before 1.0, and Pocketpair warns that mods left installed since 2024 can crash the game or damage saves, so back up first, or use Infinite Weight In Camp, above, for base work. Creator: Vuxacha. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Carry Weight Increase on Nexus Mods.
63. BigInventory
BigInventory raises the player inventory from 42 slots to 105. Its page is clear about two catches: the extra slots are written into your save, so they stay even if you remove the mod, and your inventory should not be full when you install it. As of October 2026 its page was last updated in January 2024 and asks for the old UE4SS 2.5.2, so expect it to need an update on the current game. Creator: leesiontoo. Needs: UE4SS. Download: BigInventory on Nexus Mods.
64. Max Stack Count
Max Stack Count raises item stacks from 9,999 to 999,999,999, so ore, wood and spheres stop splitting across slots. Its page says it worked on the Feybreak update (0.4.11) with UE4SS 3.0.1, and as of October 2026 it was last updated in December 2024, before 1.0. Complete Game Rebalance, further down, also raises stack sizes for common materials. Creator: Eld3rBrain. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Max Stack Count on Nexus Mods.
65. Smart Pal Feeding
It fixes a long-running complaint: base Pals leave the feed box half full and come straight back. Smart Pal Feeding makes them start eating at a set hunger threshold and stay until they reach a satiety target, 95 percent by default, which cuts down the back-and-forth. Food choice, nutrition and buffs are unchanged, and its creator credits xTeh’s older Pal Force Feeder as the inspiration. Creator: Raysør. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Smart Pal Feeding on the Steam Workshop.
66. Stuck Pal Rescuer
Pals that get wedged in terrain or buildings stop working. Stuck Pal Rescuer watches for Pals that have not moved far enough in a set time and sends them back to the Palbox, with checks so it does not interrupt Pals that are fighting, sleeping or working. Its creator believes only the host needs it. As of October 2026 its page was last updated in February 2024, before 1.0, and its creator advises backing up your world first. Creator: xTeh. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Stuck Pal Rescuer on Nexus Mods.
Gameplay Tweaks
67. MH All Game Setting and Faster Hatch Press
Two mods on one page. Faster Hatch Press removes the long button hold when you collect eggs from an incubator. MH Game Setting adds an F3 menu with about 60 adjustable settings and features, and any value set to false is left alone, so it will not fight other mods. Its page lists the latest build as confirmed for patch 1.0.3 on Steam and Game Pass. Creator: MoxxyHaven. Download: MH All Game Setting and Faster Hatch Press on Nexus Mods.
68. QualityOfLife
QualityOfLife bundles a set of anti-grind changes for multiplayer groups into one config file: a 1.5 times larger base range, four times faster Pal work, fast travel from the world map, better passive skill odds, cheaper Capture Power statue upgrades, half-length expeditions, condensing at 2, 4, 8 and 16 Pals, bigger chests and Guild Chest, and automatic merging of dropped items in bases. It is one of the most subscribed mods on the Workshop. Dedicated servers must install it along with both of its requirements. Creator: yinqvanr3. Needs: UE4SS, PalSchema. Download: QualityOfLife on the Steam Workshop.
69. Expanded World Options
Palworld’s world settings sliders stop at fixed limits, and Expanded World Options pushes nearly all of them far past those limits, from day length to combat damage and drop rates, through one config file. Its creator notes that a drop slider at 100 times gives 37 items per drop because of a cap in the game, which the config can raise. Every player needs it in multiplayer, and its creator calls multiplayer hit or miss. Creator: ARAMA. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Expanded World Options on the Steam Workshop.
70. More Status and Tech Points
This mod multiplies the stat and technology points you earn: technology points at two, four or eight times (or half, for a harder run), stat points at two, four or eight times, with tech gains from fast travel statues and bosses scaled too. Its page lists it as ready for v1.0.4, and our guide to getting technology points covers the vanilla sources. Creator: Caites. Needs: UE4SS. Download: More Status and Tech Points on Nexus Mods.
71. Pal Time Tweaks
Pal Time Tweaks puts Palworld’s longest waits in one config file. Its defaults cut boss dungeon cooldowns to 2 minutes, breeding to 60 seconds, Palbox revives to 1 minute and expeditions to about a sixth of their length, and speed up cake cooking, research, oil extraction, fishing ponds and skill fruit trees, with optional fast travel from the map. Its creator says it works on 1.0.4 as is. Creator: Balbars. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Pal Time Tweaks on the Steam Workshop.
72. Max Level Increased
Its page says vanilla caps you and your Pals at level 65, and this mod raises that cap for both to 70, 79 or 98, depending on the version. It works on new and existing characters, needs only the server side on dedicated servers, and is listed as ready for v1.0.4. Creator: Caites. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Max Level Increased on Nexus Mods.
73. Faster Expedition Time
Expeditions can send Pals away for up to two hours. This pak mod cuts every expedition timer by 75 percent, so a 1-hour run takes 15 minutes and a 2-hour run takes 30, without touching rewards or unlock conditions. It needs no other mods, and its creator says you may need to switch mods back on in Mod Management after a game update. Creator: Shiroy. Download: Faster Expedition Time on the Steam Workshop.
74. No More Hold Button
No More Hold Button turns most long presses into a click or a short hold: freeing caged Pals drops from 5 seconds, collecting hatched Pals from 4, and standard 1.2-second holds like Cancel Work become a click, along with opening treasure, starting raid bosses and checking junk heaps. Its page lists it as ready for v1.0.4. Creator: Caites. Needs: UE4SS. Download: No More Hold Button on Nexus Mods.
75. SmartPause
SmartPause adds a real pause to single-player: open the Esc menu and the whole world freezes, so you can step away without coming back to a raid or a dead character. You choose which other menus, such as the inventory, party and technology screens, pause the game too. By default it pauses even mid-combat, which you can turn off in its config. Creator: Luke Thorne. Needs: UE4SS. Download: SmartPause on the Steam Workshop.
76. No Food Decay
No Food Decay does what its name says: food stops spoiling, so meals keep indefinitely. With more than 4,400 endorsements it is one of the most endorsed Palworld mods on Nexus. As of October 2026 its page was last updated in March 2024, long before 1.0; if it has not caught up, Gantz79’s Food Not Spoil, updated in August 2026, is a pak mod that does the same job. Creator: yakuzadeso. Needs: UE4SS. Download: No Food Decay on Nexus Mods.
77. Infinite or Increase Durability
This mod multiplies the durability of tools, weapons and armor by two, five or ten times, or makes it infinite, with a separate multiplayer version for dedicated servers. With close to 2,800 endorsements it is the most endorsed durability mod we found on Nexus, but as of October 2026 its page was last updated in February 2024, before 1.0, so test it on a backed-up save. Creator: Vuxacha. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Infinite or Increase Durability on Nexus Mods.
78. True Monster Rancher
True Monster Rancher expands what Pals produce at the Ranch: Vixy can dig up higher-tier spheres, Melpaca drops leather, Sparkit drops Electric Organs, Kikit produces crude oil, and dozens more. Condensing a Pal raises its rates. Updated September 5, 2026, it comes in PalSchema and pak versions, and its page explains how to clear out older files first. Creator: Sin of Pride. Needs: PalSchema (for that version). Download: True Monster Rancher on Nexus Mods.
79. Currencies, Keys and More Are Key Items
Gold, keys and Pal Souls clog your normal inventory. This mod moves them into the Key Items tab, freeing up slots. Its creator is upfront about the trade-offs: key items cannot be dropped, and Pals cannot transport them, so ranch gold will not reach you automatically. Last updated in July 2026, after 1.0. Creator: Syzzle. Needs: UE4SS, PalSchema. Download: Currencies, Keys and More Are Key Items on the Steam Workshop.
80. Pal Surgery Table Unlocker
The Pal Surgery Table implants passive skills, but normally you buy each implant from merchants first. This mod unlocks every implant by default and charges gold instead, from 10,000 for the lowest tier to 300,000 for World Tree implants. Its page says it works on Steam and Game Pass and was ready for v1.0.2. In multiplayer, the server and every client need it. Creator: mEi. Download: Pal Surgery Table Unlocker on Nexus Mods.
81. Complete Game Rebalance
Complete Game Rebalance is an overhaul aimed at cutting MMO-style grind without making the game trivial. Its long change list includes condensing at 2, 4, 6 and 8 Pals, faster work speeds, IVs always inherited from parents, a two-minute Palbox revive, bigger pouch bonuses, better treasure loot and far fewer button holds, and every value can be tuned in its config files. Its page lists it as compatible with Palworld v1.0.5 on Steam and Game Pass; in co-op, every player installs it. Creator: Kayrxnn. Needs: UE4SS, PalSchema. Download: Complete Game Rebalance on Nexus Mods.
Crafting, Shops and Loot
82. Free and Instant Crafting Items
For sandbox-style play, this pak makes everything at workbenches, factories, kitchens and crushers free and instant. A second version keeps the material cost and only removes the work time, which is the gentler option. Use only one version, and its page notes it conflicts with any mod that edits the same recipe table. Creator: Gantz79. Download: Free and Instant Crafting Items on Nexus Mods.
83. Ultra Fast Materials Production
Logging sites, stone pits, ore mines, crude oil pumps and the other resource stations produce materials very fast with this mod. It only affects stations you build after installing it, and undoing it means rebuilding them. Its page points out that crushers count as crafting, not production, so they need Free and Instant Crafting Items instead. Creator: Gantz79. Download: Ultra Fast Materials Production on Nexus Mods.
84. 2x-5x-10x-100x Palsphere and Ammo Crafting
Every time you craft Pal Spheres or ammo, this gives you two, five, ten or a hundred times the normal amount for the same cost and time. Its creator made it as a stopgap when older sphere and ammo mods had not been updated, and its page lists version 1.4 as updated for Palworld 1.0.3 on Steam, adding that the Game Pass version is probably not compatible. Install only one multiplier. Creator: Kialee. Download: 2x-5x-10x-100x Palsphere and Ammo Crafting on Nexus Mods.
85. New Sale Items in All Merchants
This adds new Legendary Schematics to every merchant’s stock and lets Medal Merchants sell Training Crystals, Ancient and Future Technical Manuals, Slabs, Applied Techniques and more for one Dog Coin each. Its page notes that after you remove it, shops may keep selling the modded items until their stock regenerates. Creator: Gantz79. Download: New Sale Items in All Merchants on Nexus Mods.
86. Better Sell Rates
Better Sell Rates multiplies the gold you get for selling items and Pals, with versions at half, two, four, eight and a hundred times the vanilla rate. An optional file raises Pal values specifically, which its page warns raises buying prices as well. It is listed as ready for v1.0.4. Creator: Caites. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Better Sell Rates on Nexus Mods.
87. Alpha Pals Legendary Blueprint Drop Buff
Its page puts the drop chance for Legendary Blueprints from Alpha Pals at 3 percent, and this mod raises it, with versions at 5, 10, 20, 25, 33, 50 and 100 percent; 20 percent is its creator’s suggested middle ground, and there is even a 1 percent version for a harder game. The main version is a plain pak with no requirements, with a PalSchema version as an alternative, and its page says it was tested on Steam version 1.0. Creator: mantazzo. Download: Alpha Pals Legendary Blueprint Drop Buff on Nexus Mods.
88. Herman’s Slot RNG Buff
Tio Herman’s mod raises the odds on many of Palworld’s rarest rolls. Its page lists book drops from a dungeon’s final chest rising from 0.1 to 10 percent, Dog Coins from rank 1 salvage from 0.5 to 50 percent, better IV Fruit odds from treasure maps, and fishing ponds in the snow, Sakurajima and Feybreak areas always yielding High Quality Pal Oil, which our High Quality Pal Oil guide covers the vanilla way. Its creator has not made a Game Pass version. Creator: Tio Herman. Download: Herman’s Slot RNG Buff on the Steam Workshop.
Visuals and Camera
89. Better Night Light
Palworld’s nights can be hard to see in. Better Night Light replaces the flat night skylight with blue moonlight, brightens the stars and strengthens dawn and sunset lighting, so nights stay readable without looking like daytime. It has more than 5,000 endorsements, and its page lists it as up to date for 1.0, with files for Steam, Game Pass and dedicated servers. Creator: LPYRO. Download: Better Night Light on Nexus Mods.
90. Enhanced Palworld Visuals
With more than 3,600 endorsements, Enhanced Palworld Visuals is one of the most endorsed Palworld mods on Nexus. It turns off fog, depth of field, lens flare and bloom, adds anisotropic filtering and sharpening, and can raise the internal resolution; its Epic preset increases draw distance, shadow resolution and level of detail, and Epic Plus adds screen-space global illumination and reflections for strong PCs. As of October 2026 its page was last updated in December 2025, before 1.0. Creator: FrancisLouis. Download: Enhanced Palworld Visuals on Nexus Mods.
91. Ultra Graphics
Ultra Graphics switches on Lumen global illumination and reflections, extends view distance, adds dynamic shadows and reworks lighting, including new lights on objects, skills and projectiles that had none. F9 toggles Lumen and F10 a performance mode, and it is purely local, so it is safe in multiplayer. Its page warns of a frame rate drop at dusk when it is combined with Better Night Light. Creator: Fr4nsson. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Ultra Graphics on Nexus Mods.
92. Ultra Weather
Made to pair with Ultra Graphics, Ultra Weather turns on the volumetric clouds that its creator says Palworld ships disabled, complete with cloud shadows, rebuilds each time-of-day sky preset and blends fog color through the day. You can choose full custom skies, light tweaks to the vanilla presets, or clouds only. Creator: Fr4nsson. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Ultra Weather on the Steam Workshop.
93. Hide Backpacks, Lanterns and Back Weapons
A cosmetic favorite for anyone who spent time on character creation or screenshots: it hides the backpack, lantern, weapons on your back and the folded glider wing pack, so your outfit shows. Its page says it works with vanilla and modded outfits, it covers both Steam and Game Pass, and it was last updated on July 17, 2026, after 1.0. Creator: notrustk. Download: Hide Backpacks on Nexus Mods.
94. Immersive Palworld: First Person
Immersive Palworld plays the game in first person while exploring, fighting, building, swimming, climbing and riding, with a visible body, arms and weapons, smooth camera transitions and separate field of view settings. Its creator built it with ultrawide screens, the Steam Deck and controllers in mind, it is client-side, and it was updated on October 18, 2026. Creator: DrDryEyes. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Immersive Palworld: First Person on the Steam Workshop.
Multiplayer and Server Tools
95. PalDefender
PalDefender adds server-side checks against known cheats, exploits and crash tricks before actions run, and can warn, kick or ban players who try them, per its page. It runs only on dedicated servers, its official wiki covers setup, and it was updated in October 2026. Creator: Ultimeit and Zvendson. Needs: a Windows dedicated server, or Wine or Proton on Linux. Download: PalDefender on Nexus Mods.
96. AdminEngine
AdminEngine adds admin commands for spawning and editing items, picking up far-away objects, teleporting and more, and it can be installed client-side or server-side depending on how you play. It has close to 900 endorsements. As of October 2026 its page was last updated in March 2024, before 1.0, so server owners on the current version should read its recent comments first. Creator: cwsharkbones. Needs: UE4SS. Download: AdminEngine on Nexus Mods.
97. Expedition XP
Expedition XP turns expeditions into a way to level Pals: they come home with experience rated to the expedition’s tier, under-leveled Pals get a catch-up bonus of up to 1.8 times, and Pals far above the expedition’s level earn next to nothing. It is a server-side mod, so it goes on the dedicated server or your own game in single-player, and players joining need nothing. Creator: A New Darn. Needs: UE4SS. Download: Expedition XP on the Steam Workshop.
Sandbox and Save Tools
98. Creative Menu
Creative Menu is a sandbox tool that opens with F1 (or by holding crouch for three seconds). It spawns items, Pals and NPCs, and lets you set a Pal’s stats, IVs, active skills and passives before it appears. It also comes from Okaetsu, the PalSchema creator, and does not need UE4SS. In multiplayer, host and player both need it, plus admin permission. Creator: Okaetsu. Download: Creative Menu on Nexus Mods.
99. PalEdit
PalEdit is a standalone save editor rather than an in-game mod. It lets you edit passive skills and stats on Pals in your save, or clone a Pal and change its species, which skips the breeding grind for perfect passives. It was updated in August 2026, and its page repeats the one rule that matters: back up your save files first. Creator: Eternal Wraith. Download: PalEdit on Nexus Mods.
100. Palworld Pal Editor
Palworld Pal Editor is a full save editor for players, Pals, technology and inventories that runs as a desktop app, a web interface, a command-line tool or a Docker container. It currently works with Steam-format saves, and its page points to a separate tool for converting other saves. It makes its own backups, but its creator still tells you to keep a copy of your save. Creator: connlost. Download: Palworld Pal Editor on Nexus Mods.
How to Install Palworld Mods
Most mods on this list come from one of two places. Steam Workshop mods install themselves: subscribe, then on the title screen open Options and Mod Management, switch Enable Mods on, tick each mod and its requirements, and save, and the game restarts with them loaded. Workshop support is Steam only. Nexus Mods files go in by hand, and each creator’s page has the exact steps: UE4SS goes in Pal\Binaries\Win64 (WinGDK on Game Pass), script mods go in its Mods folder, Blueprint mods go in Pal\Content\Paks\LogicMods, and plain pak mods go in Pal\Content\Paks\~mods, a folder you may need to create.
Never run both copies of UE4SS: the Workshop’s UE4SS Experimental page warns that loading the Workshop and Nexus versions together crashes the game. Before reinstalling mods after a major update, Pocketpair’s own advice is to back up your save, delete old mod files from the game folder (disabling them is not enough), verify the game files on Steam, and add mods back one at a time once their creators have updated them. Its mod guidelines explain how to remove mods cleanly. That matters most for the older favorites above whose pages have not been updated in a while.
In multiplayer, check where each mod goes. Some are client-side and work anywhere, like Pal Analyzer, the minimaps and Effigy Beacons. Some run only on whatever hosts the world, like True Mercy, Guild Storage Expander and Expedition XP. Others, like Pal Squad: All Out! and BaseShift, need the same version on the server and on every player’s PC. Pocketpair notes that some servers, including official ones, do not allow mods at all.
How We Chose These Mods
We started from each platform’s own popularity data, Nexus Mods endorsements and downloads and Steam Workshop subscriptions, took the most popular mods in each category, and checked every one on its creator’s page on October 21, 2026: that it is published with files you can download, that it is free, and what it needs. Loved mods that have not been updated since early access are still listed, because creators update their mods all the time, and each of those entries says when its page was last updated. We left out adult mods, near-duplicate variants (Expanded Storage comes in 2x, 4x and 8x, for example, and we list one), model swaps that borrow characters from other franchises, and Workshop re-uploads of other creators’ mods. If a mod is not on its creator’s page, do not download it from anywhere else: re-upload sites spread outdated and sometimes malicious files.
Palworld modding follows a pattern we have seen with other survival games; our Valheim 1.0 mod compatibility guide and best Valheim mods list cover the same cycle there, and our best Sims 4 mods list uses the same checks. If you would rather finish the story unmodded first, our Panthalus boss guide covers the fight. Most mods here also work in co-op, and if your group wants something new to play together, see our best PC co-op games of 2026.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Palworld have official mod support? Yes. Pocketpair added Steam Workshop support in the v0.7 update in December 2025, with an in-game Mod Management menu under Options. It is only available in the Steam version, and Pocketpair notes that some servers, including official ones, do not allow mods.
Why did my Palworld mods stop working? Game updates change the files mods rely on, and 1.0 was a major overhaul. Pocketpair recommends backing up your save, deleting old mod files from the game folder (disabling them is not enough), verifying game files on Steam, and reinstalling mods only after their creators confirm they have been updated.
What should I install first? UE4SS, then PalSchema. Most mods on this list need one or both, and their pages list any other requirements. Do not install both the Workshop and Nexus versions of UE4SS, because loading two copies crashes the game.
Are the older mods on this list safe to use? Several popular mods, such as Carry Weight Increase and No Food Decay, have not been updated since 2024, and Pocketpair warns that mods left installed since then can crash the game, corrupt saves or stop quests from progressing. Back up your save, add them one at a time, and remove any that cause problems; each entry says when its page was last updated.
Do Palworld mods need to be installed on a dedicated server? It depends on the mod. Client-side mods such as Pal Analyzer and the minimaps only go on your PC, server-side mods such as Expedition XP and Guild Storage Expander only go on the server, and some, like Pal Squad: All Out!, need the same version on both. Each entry and each creator’s page says which.
Do Palworld mods work on Xbox, PlayStation or Game Pass? Console versions do not support mods. Several Nexus mods on this list include Game Pass PC files, but the Steam Workshop is Steam only.
Are these mods free? Yes. Every mod on this list is free to download from its creator’s page. Some creators accept optional tips, but nothing here is paywalled.
