So I’m trying to mod but the docs are kind of hard for me to understand dose anyone have or know of a video that goes step by step teaching you to mod ? I have searched on google and YouTube and other places and i cant find anything that goes step by step on all the stuff for modding.

I’m unsure if there’s any truly up-to-date video tutorials for what you’re looking for. Though most older player-made tutorials should still contain some useful information. Our official documentation (currently) assumes the modder is referencing the game’s vanilla/official content, along with the Example Assets provided.

If you have no experience with modding the game, to get started I recommend:

  1. Read the “Getting Started” page to understand what software you need to create mods.

  2. Install Unity. Make sure you’re installing the correct version (as explained in “Getting Started”).

  3. Create a new project in Unity.

  4. Import the Project.unitypackage and ExampleAssets.unitypackage from the game files. (More information provided in “Getting Started”.)

From this point, what you do next is dependent on what you’re trying to do. Assuming you’re trying to create a custom gun, I would recommend:

  • Creating a new folder in your Unity project to hold your custom assets.

  • Reading “Asset Bundles — Unturned 3.x documentation” to understand master bundles. Your newly-created folder can be used for your master bundle.

  • Looking in the imported CoreMasterBundle folder for an example of a vanilla asset that you’d like to create. For example, if you’re trying to create a gun, you might duplicate the “Eaglefire” folder from CoreMasterBundle into your custom folder.

  • Read “Introduction to Items — Unturned 3.x documentation” to better understand how most items are setup in Unity, and the properties they can have in-game.

  • Read “Gun Assets — Unturned 3.x documentation” to better understand how Guns are setup in Unity, and the properties they can have in-game.

You can find tutorials for pretty much everything about modding on YouTube if you just look hard enough. Not for everything but for me I’ve found tutorials for all the things I’ve needed up to this point. Sure the tutorials might be old but the process of modding things hasn’t changed a lot so most tutorials should work just fine. And yes there aren’t tutorials for everything on YouTube but I think you can find more stuff in the official text documents that tell you how to do stuff but I’m too lazy to read them as It’s easier for me to just watch a tutorial on YouTube.

I’ve been modding unturned for roughly 6 years and could probably help with your questions. What exactly are you trying to do?
