My Mods is a concept created because of the wide availability of various mods. Modders have been producing many unique mods that are interesting to explore in single player instances. However, with such creative freedoms, comes the invevitable breakdown of any standards. Zip files are packaged differently from one release to another, using a variety of download hosts, and with different installation instructions.
My Mods attempts to standardize mod releases to make it easier for players to play on the latest mods, without having to jump through hoops or risking other modded files.
In the Server / Mod Select screen, right click and choose "Add My Mod".
Enter in a unique My Server Name, and optionally, add a My Server Description.
Click on Add New Download Link, and copy and paste each of the modder's downloadable zip links.
Click on Save
The structure of your zip file will be more important with 7D2D Launcher support. The zip will will be extract in the top level of the game's folder, so the structure of the zip file should support placing the files in the correct locations.
Provide an easy to use hosting provider, such as MediaFire.
It is also recommended that you use zip files from software such as 7 zip, as opposed to other compressed files such as RAR.
The installed 7D2D Launcher will automatically check for updates when it starts.

The 7D2D Launcher will create a copy for each of My Mods, leaving the originals unchanged. This will allow you to have multiple configurations on your computer, allowing you to switch to them quickly.
The base 7 Days to Die game takes a little over 3 gigs of disk space. You'll need atleast 3.5G available in order to run each new copy.
We believe that My Mods will help standardize the modding community of 7 Days to Die, and provide consistent content to the players.
The 7D2D Launcher was designed to deploy downloadable mod files, and install them in the correct play. If a modder structures their downloadable modded file in a standard format, the mod should play.
