Modding is now officially supported in Afterbirth+, enabling users to mod the game using the Lua programming language and to upload their creations to the Steam Workshop.
Installing Mods[edit | edit source]
Mods can be installed in a few different ways, depending on how the author chose to share it. Mods can typically be found in the Steam Workshop or various community sources.
Steam Workshop[edit | edit source]![]()
Mods found in the Steam Workshop can be installed by navigating to the mod's page and clicking Subscribe. The game must be started to install the mod into the game.
Manual installation[edit | edit source]
Mods that do not use the Steam Workshop can be installed by downloading them and extracting them to the appropriate location.
Enabling unlocks[edit | edit source]
In Afterbirth+, having any enabled mod will disable the ability to unlock any achievements to encourage new players to play the game without any. To enable unlocking achievements with mods enabled, you need to defeat Mom at least once with all of your mods disabled.
Ensuring stability[edit | edit source]
While introducing official modding support, mods for this game are infamous for not working properly due to how the API was constructed and the lack of suitable, comprehensible documentation.
Save data[edit | edit source]
Many mods do not or cannot retain save data in a continued game. This could be due to the mod author not knowing how to enable this, or the mod's data being too complicated to save. It is recommended to avoid continuing any saved games if any mods are enabled.
Some mods may have their save data cleared if one of the situations below occurs:
If any installed mods contain save data that must be kept between runs (for example, custom unlockables) then this would be a big concern, as deleting the mod's save data would remove this progress. Some ways to work around these issues include:
Assets[edit | edit source]
Most mod assets do not load properly if one of the situations below occurs:
When this happens, many textures and animation files will not be applied in-game. For example, a custom monster added by a mod affected by this issue may appear invisible. Some ways to work around these issues include:
Download Failures[edit | edit source]
For larger mods, the game may even fail to install all the files into your game. This can have the same causes as improperly loaded assets have, but some signs that things are not right can include:
These kinds of issues are usually caused by the game failing to copy all the mod's files over from Steam's workshop folder into the mod's folder. Performing this process manually by yourself usually fixes this. Steam's workshop folder is included in:
250900 is The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth's ID on Steam. Inside this folder you will see many more numbered folders, these correspond to the id of each mod. You can see these numbers in links.
Once you have located the problem mod, go into its folder and copy all the files inside over to its true location in the
Binding of Isaac Afterbirth+ Mods folder.
