Open TMOD File

A TMOD extension file is a mod file, created by tModLoader, which is a program used to create and distribute mods for Terraria, which in turn is a 2D action adventure game.

The TMOD file is related to the CS and PNG files since the mod that TMOD contains can be compiled from these files, adding content to complement or alter Terraria's scenarios.

It is important to note that tModLoader gives the possibility of loading modifications for terraria, but it does not modify the original code of the game, although it alters stage elements, these are not made by code, but by external modifications.

Terraria is a 2D open world video game with elements of construction, exploration, adventure and combat, similar to classic games such as the Metroid series, Minecraft or Roblox, although the latter are 3D creations.

tModLoader creates the TMOD file to store a user's personal mod. You can open the location of your TMOD files from the main menu of tModLoader.

To install tModLoader, download the utility and copy it to the Terraria Steam installation folder.

To create, open or modify a TMOD file, you must have the following software installed:
