How to troubleshoot Palworld Logic Mods not loading?

Logic Mods won’t load on your Palworld server? Let’s fix it step by step. You’ll clean up old UE4SS files, enable BPModLoader, and verify the right files so mods load on every restart.

Prerequisites

  • Access to the Oxygenserv panel (your login and password)
  • Palworld modded server installed and stopped during changes
  • Latest UE4SS archive (.zip) downloaded to your PC
  • Panel file manager or SFTP client (e.g., FileZilla)
  • Backup of Pal/Binaries/Win64, Pal/Binaries/Win64/Mods, and mods.txt

Detailed steps

  1. Remove residual files from an older UE4SS
    Download the latest UE4SS (.zip) to your PC. Log in to the Oxygenserv panel, open your Palworld service, and click “Stop” until the console shows “Stopped.” Open “Files” and go to /home/container/Pal/Binaries/Win64. Upload the UE4SS archive, then use “Extract/Unarchive” to unpack it directly into this folder. Delete xinput1_3.dll if present (common leftover that blocks the hook), then start the server and watch the console; you should see something like “UE4SS: Initialized.”
  2. Enable BPModLoaderMods (enabled.txt + mods.txt)
    In “Files,” open /home/container/Pal/Binaries/Win64/Mods/BPModLoaderMod. Click “Create” → “Create file,” enter exactly enabled.txt (empty) and confirm. Go back to /home/container/Pal/Binaries/Win64/Mods and open mods.txt. Find BPModLoaderMods and set its value to 1 (e.g., BPModLoaderMods: 1), then Save. Start the server; the logs should show BPModLoader initializing. If mods.txt doesn’t exist, create it and add the line.
  3. Place your Logic Mods properly and enable them
    UE4SS Logic Mods go into /home/container/Pal/Binaries/Win64/Mods, one folder per mod (e.g., MyAutomationMod). In mods.txt, add one line per mod with : 1 to enable it (e.g., MyAutomationMod: 1). Save and Restart. You should see console lines for each mod being loaded. If nothing loads, ensure the name in mods.txt exactly matches the folder name (case-sensitive).
  4. Use logs to diagnose and fix common errors
    Open the console and look for “UE4SS” or “error” lines. Also check /home/container/Pal/Binaries/Win64/UE4SS.log if present; it lists detailed issues (missing mod, blocked hook, etc.). If you see “cannot open enabled.txt,” create /Mods/BPModLoaderMod/enabled.txt. If logs mention duplicate hooks or “xinput” conflicts, remove old DLLs that don’t come from the latest UE4SS archive. If “UE4SS: Initialized” never appears, files are likely in the wrong place or the archive wasn’t extracted at the correct level (ensure the UE4SS DLLs sit directly in Win64, not inside a nested folder).
  5. Isolate conflicts by testing one mod at a time
    Open mods.txt and set all entries to 0 except BPModLoaderMods: 1. Restart, then re-enable your mods one by one (e.g., MyAutomationMod: 1), restarting between each change. Watch the console after each activation; if a mod crashes the server or shows no load message, it’s your culprit. Set it back to 0 and continue. This process precisely identifies the problematic mod.

Tips & optimization

– Always stop the server before writing into Win64 or Mods to avoid file corruption.
– Keep only the files from the latest UE4SS archive; delete any leftover hook DLLs (xinput1_3.dll, dxgi.dll) to prevent double-hook issues.
– Avoid spaces/accents in mod folder names; prefer MyAutomationMod to reduce parsing errors.
– Enable mods gradually (1 per restart) to quickly spot incompatibilities. Practically, keep heavy Logic Mods under ~10 for stable performance.
– If a mod won’t load, ensure it matches your server’s Palworld version and check its readme for dependencies or load order requirements.

FAQ

Where do I put a .pak mod vs a UE4SS Logic Mod?

.pak mods go to Pal/Content/Paks (PAK system), while UE4SS Logic Mods go to Pal/Binaries/Win64/Mods and are enabled via mods.txt. Putting a .pak into Mods won’t load it. Always check the mod’s readme.

I don’t have a mods.txt file. What now?

Create /home/container/Pal/Binaries/Win64/Mods/mods.txt via the panel. Add at least BPModLoaderMods: 1 to enable BPModLoader, then one line per mod (e.g., MyAutomationMod: 1). Save and restart; you should see load logs.

What should enabled.txt contain for BPModLoaderMod?

Nothing; it can be empty. Its presence in /Mods/BPModLoaderMod/ is what triggers Blueprint mod loading. If it’s missing, BPModLoader won’t initialize.

Nice, your Logic Mods should be loading again. If one still fails, isolate it and check its version. Come back anytime to push your automation even further.
