Community mods on Curbolt: How to submit your mod

The community mods hub on Curbolt is live: upload your own 7 Days to Die mods, get an author page, and receive votes from other players. This is not the same as our Curbolt modlets — those are small add-ons we publish; the community hub is for full mods. Curbolt does not replace Nexus Mods — many authors simply mirror their mods here as an additional channel.

What you need

• A Curbolt account (free, e.g. Google sign-in)
• Your mod as a ZIP file (standard mod layout with ModInfo.xml)
• Optional: screenshots, icon, DE/EN description, Nexus or GitHub source link

How to submit

1. Go to Submit mod and sign in.
2. Fill in title, game version (e.g. V3.1) and category.
3. Upload your ZIP — optionally add screenshots and tags.
4. Submit. Your mod will show as Pending review first.

Note: We usually review submissions within 24–48 hours. You can still edit mods while they are pending.

What we accept

• 7DTD mods as ZIP (overhauls, QoL, UI, content, translations — anything that helps players)
• QoL, UI, gameplay, overhauls, translations — anything that helps players
• Mods with a Nexus source: add the source URL; Curbolt hosts the mirror

What we reject

• Malware or stolen content without rights
• Pure advertising without a working mod package
• Duplicates without added value

Why Curbolt?

• DE + EN audience alongside tools, map and guides
• Author page, upvotes, comments and collections
• Integration into the Curbolt mod hub (version, tags, dependencies)
• No paywall, no exclusivity required
