Mods are in tModLoader’s workshop or through the in-game mod browser. You have to own Terraria already of course. Just find it in the games section of the steam store. To Play: tModLoader is pretty slick and user friendly from this side. The tutorials and included instructions are mostly good, but I wanted to share the solutions to the issues I had… You may need to forward port 7777 in your router to connect from outside your home network if upnp doesn’t work.My use case is simply hosting a very simple private modded server on Ubuntu. server/TerrariaServer -圆4 -config /shares/Terraria/config.txtĪnd to ensure a clean shutdown, add this funky command to clean.sh screen -S terr -p 0 -X stuff $'exit\n' To start the server on boot, add this somewhere to init.sh screen -S terr -d -m. Press CTRL-A and R to attach to the session again. Press CTRL-A and D to detach from the screen session. shares/Terraria/server/TerrariaServer -圆4 -config /shares/Terraria/config.txt

You probably don’t want to keep your SSH session open all the time. Now start the server with the 圆4 option and the full path to the config file /shares/Terraria/server/TerrariaServer -圆4 -config /shares/Terraria/config.txt # the name should match the full path above World=/shares/Terraria/Worlds/Terraria.wld It defaults to /home/root/.local/share/Terraria which gets wiped on NAS reboot (unless you have my Entware package installed). Make the binaries executable chmod +x server/TerrariaServer* v=1353Ĭat $v/Windows/serverconfig.txt > example_config.txt Select the linux server, keep an example config and clean up the rest. Or simply download it via your browser and copy it to your Terraria share. cd /shares/Terrariaīrowse to the official website, scroll down and copy the link of ‘dedicated server’ at the bottom.ĭownload the server binary like this curl -L -o terraria.zip I’d recommend to create a Terraria share via the WD web UI so it’s easier to add worlds.

Warning: modifications to your NAS are at your own risk. Here’s how to do it based on the official instructions A friend asked if I could host a Terraria server for him.
