Here I try to answer some of the frequently asked questions about my mod Fashionist.
The OFFICIAL Age of Calamitous Mod for Conan Exiles Tutorial Channel. We feature Guides, Tutorials, and Tips and Tricks centered around Conan Exiles and spec. System closed January 24, 2020, 4:58pm #5. 440900 is the ID number for the game Conan Exiles on Steam. Each folder inside will be the workshop ID number of a separate mod. Inside those folders you will find the actual mods, all ending in.pak; those are the files you will need to copy, the numbered folders are not needed, just the files inside the folder.
A long existing issue in the vanilla game and not fixable by modders. This can also happen with un-modded items like elevators or maprooms, even on official servers without mods. Yes it looks like it is more likely on modded servers. Yes it affects often modded items but not only. No we can’t fix it.
I have created a small testmod and send it to the devs for investigation. No feedback so far.
A little read from the official funcom forums:
– Zero Hit Points?[forums.funcom.com]
– Vertical elevators glitched health at 0/50000[forums.funcom.com]
Workaround(s):
- Whats up everyone its Onglor. Today I'll be sharing a mod called High Heels System for Conan Exiles. The mod looks very good and you should give it a try.mus.
- Conan Exiles will feature full mod support on PC. This is planned to be available from the start of Early Access. Mod developers will be able to download a custom Unreal Engine editor, letting them create a whole host of modifications to the game.
- Unlock Plus. it adds an additional pickup option to the radial menu if the issue is detected.
- Emberlight: can also add an additional pickup option to the radial menu.
- If your server allows building damage you can hit the placeable with a weapon. Now you can repair it.
This is a long existing issue in the vanilla game and nothing a modder can fix. When ever your chars size is outside of the default size this issue can occur. With mods and their features this problem is only more obvious, but it is not caused by them.
Concrete: if you did not use the hide helmet feature of Fashionist you will wear a helmet and the hair is invisible. No hair physic problem.
Possible solution: resize your char to the default size. With default size settings the issue is less likely. You can use the Fashionist Mirror to re-size your char.

Conan Exiles Mods On Official Servers
The way the Unreal engine manages its files makes it impossible to implement a feature in more than one mod without significant additional effort. Unfortunately I don’t have the time for this effort.
Most parts of the mod are configurable and can be activated/deactivated as admin and/or player (see Fashionist – Mod Configuration). If you miss a setting, you are welcome to make a suggestion. The best place for this is my discord server: Testerles Conan Exiles Mods
The Fashionist configuration can also be opened via the command line. the command for this is

Want to put your own mark on Conan Exiles? Create your own content or make changes to existing features? Well now you have the chance with the Conan Exiles Dev Kit.
You can already choose your own experience in Conan Exiles through a host of different server settings, but now you have the opportunity to customize the game to an even greater extent through mods.
Choose your mods
As players start making mods you will be able to find them in the Conan Exiles Workshop on Steam under the Community hub. You can also reach the Workshop by starting Conan Exiles, choose mods in the main menu and then click the Workshop button.
You subscribe to the mods you want and then choose the ones you wish to play with from the available mods tab and move them over to the selected mods tab in the Conan Exiles mods menu.
If you try and play on a server with mods, you will get a pop-up which tells you which mods you are missing and need to download. Also, if you are using mods and a server you wish to play on does not have them, you will not be able to join that server. Activating and deactivating mods is very easy in the mod menu though, but you will need to restart your game for the changes to take effect.
Create your own mods
To start making mods for Conan Exiles you first need the Epic Games Launcher, which can be found here. In the launcher you go to the modding tab, like shown in the picture below, and choose to download the Conan Exiles Dev Kit. (It is a big download).
Using the Unreal Engine 4 Editor with our Dev Kit you will be able to create content almost the exact same way our own developers do. The kit gives you access to basically all the assets of the game, from maps and blueprints to meshes and animations. The editor itself requires some knowledge, but there are many guides available, and overall it is relatively easy to use.
You will be able to load maps and see how the world is made in detail. Perhaps you would like to make a whole new mountain or ruin, or even introduce a new type of weapon? You can make almost anything you like in the editor and create a mod for it.
The Dev Kit is heavy to run, so we recommend having a quite powerful computer if you plan on using it. Also loading times can be quite long the first times you use it.
Conan Exiles Mod Server
To get started making mods you should also check out the modding page on the Conan Exiles wiki for information. It will take you through the process of making a simple mod step by step. You will still need to learn how to use the Unreal 4 Editor yourself, but the guide will teach you how to build a mod in our dev kit and upload it to Steam.
You may also want to catch our Community Manager Andy Benditt talking about mods on a recent UnrealEngine Twitch stream.
Please note that mods is a feature we just introduced, so expect more information about it, as well as changes and improvements, as we all play and make Conan Exiles together through Early Access.
