If you haven't already, go check out the modlists by trmplays, Loreplays, Kokoplays, Yeti's, Roll1D2Games, and Quarantine Games's and Barky's mod showcase videos. Those were the ones I watched while getting ideas for what to include, though a lot of other fine mod videos exist out there. I'm def not the best at modding or explaining what each one does - I'm just honestly really interested in these mods and how they make the game feel new to me again. I grateful for any knowledge of mod conflicts or other ones you might share with me, as usually that helps me explain it better in future videos. Haven't been in the modding world in awhile tho, so hopefully I did at least a little justice to these great mods! There's also a bunch I didn't include because they add a completely different facet to the game, like SOS and Hospitality, though those are fine too! This is not an exclusive list by any means. And if I haven't said it already, thanks to all the amazing people who mod the game and provide fun experiences for everyone!

Ambiguous tries just a few mods and now he's doing them like crack cocaine.

I've had a colonist literally bite off an entire arm of a guest in a "social fight", so I think the Ugh You Got Me sounds like a good adition to the game

That was quick, you've fallen into the Rimworld Mod rabbit hole too.

ah, Rimworld, the perfect game to use your Cthulhu-praising Jedi Catgirl to kill some invading magic zombie-Xenomorphs....

i love how after just 2 years, the rimworld devs managed to implement most of the mods shown in the video in the base game

Along the lines of careful raiders, "Sometimes raids go wrong" adds an element of variety to raider spawns, as the name suggests, raids can go wrong for them in a multitude of ways, my personal favorite is when the raiders spawn in, alongside a hostile bear that attacks them, but there are plenty other events in a similar vein.

"lets go for a vanilla experience this time!" me 2 hours mod searching later: 27:38

So I was laying in my bed watching this video. and when he mentioned what "common sense" did I litterally sprung up and leapt at my computer to install it because food poisoning from dirty kitchen is my #2 problem for my current colony. #1 is that my storyteller is obsessed with cats and I keep getting cat related events, like 10 cats just joined your colony or 7 man-hunting cats have appeared and one of your colonists has been clawed almost to death.

17:15 ah yes, a mod that finally lets your pawns “move while they’re running”, finally

Finally you embraced wall lights 😂 I've been pitching them to you for months!

12:20 "so you can move when you are running" thank you i didn't know i can move when im running

Me: Looks at this video My CPU: "My time has come."

This video took me nearly 2 hours tabbing to Workshop constantly. Thank you!

Tynan: I´m gonna destroy this man whole career **Releases Rimworld 1.2**

honestly, most of these mods should've been in the base game

You just got me watching an entire mod list video for entertainment and for ideas for an colony of my own, thanks for the mods and keep doing what you’re doing, but make sure you know what you want to do too.

Instead of a top 10 mods, i like how this is just lets take a look at all these mods that i like, great video

A small note on Map Reroll, whenever you do it all the items that spawned with you will disappear, so make sure to put everything in your colonists inventory first.

I have a mod suggestion for you! Check out the Megafauna mod it adds some larger extinct animals (some very useful but need high taming skill and eat a lot). Some are really useful as battle mounts and others can be super useful with carrying stuff in caravans! They also look like they belong in the vanilla game so to me it's an absolute must!

Thanks for supporting the mod community and thanks for featuring at least six of my mods!

Honestly, Thank you for your Mod Reviews! Half of them where already on my list, but the other half looks intresting too

Great now im downloading not only Kenshi but Rimworld because of you. Videos are just too great for me to just sit here and watch, i gotta experience it myself

you can use ctrl+scroll wheel to zoom in and out in the research pal

Ahhh yes. They all fall eventually. Welcome to mods my favorite rimworlder.

Thanks for the modlist, im happy you took the time to talk about them all. most of the time when i get mods i just want to get a list and play but never really look at what most the mods do. since this video im going to try out all these mods and see where it will go. you did a great job explaining all the mods too. the video of you using the mods was even a greater visual of understanding the mods. thanks!

I’ve watched the last few series and he had no mods. “Here is my 100+ mod list”... straight to the deep end I like it

Somehow, this vid just flew under my radar! I legit love Rimworld and modding, seeing some new mod ideas and combos is always awesome! Thanks for introducing me to doormats and dragable corners and mad skills! (I hate how fast the skills regress).

I'd love a new version of this video. 1.4 has changed quite some stuff

I just want to say that I love how perfect Rim World is as a platform for different genres and even franchises. You want Lord of the Rings? Absolutely. Star Wars? Got it. Halo? Sure. Furries? Why not? Medieval Stuff? Certainly, mi'lord. Warhammer? Yes, by the Emperor! It's just great.

I already have a mod list with over 100 mods. While several of these mods I already have my mod list has grown by at absolute minimum 25 more. You’re a monster Ambiguous Amphibian.

i just want to thank you so much i've been wanting to get back into rimworld after playing for over 500 hours and this gives me so many ideas and im really thankful that you'd make a video like this for newer players and veterans alike. i'm so happy i've given you a sub and im probably going to give this video 12 veiws by myself. keep up the great content!

Look forward to your content every day. Love you! And welcome to the rabbit hole that is rimworld mods. Last run I had about 200 mods and it was great

Thank you for sharing your mod experience! I’ve been loving the recent content and I’m excited for more soon! I hope your new job is going well!

"run and gun, it lets you move while you run" ah yes, the mod we all needed

I know this is from last year, but thank you. I recently found you and you've given me hours of entertainment! I've been binge watching your Rimworld series and when I saw this video, I admit, I got excited. Thank you again for all the great content! Keep up the amazing work!

I've been enjoying your videos, man. I'm a new rimworld player but by no means a new gamer. You're giving me a nice crash course and I love what i'm seeing when it comes to possibilities in this game.

Thank you so much, this actually rekindled my fire for this game. It is grindy, but the mods you suggested tackled all of my issues.

pretty much the overview i was looking for, while being too tired to read through reddit posts, thanks! also, nicely chosen relaxing background music. good guide!

I didn’t watch the whole thing, but I didn’t see “No Pause Challenge” in there. I’ve been playing with it and it adds more real time tactics. I’d think that’d be a great addition to wave survival to keep you on your toes.

I'm sitting here working, making a list of all the mods I want to add tonight... amazing video, thanks for this

"chuckles knowingly" Welcome to The Addiction that is rimworld mods.

damn your video was insanely good for me, been playing this game and moding it for a while and you showed me really great mods i didn't know i needed until i saw what they did

the BEST mod list on youtube, thanks!

Part 1 is basically: “Tynan please add this”

The Hygiene mod has become a must have for my in my recent games. It adds some basic elements that make the game a bit more realistic.

Rimworld of Magic, Rimsaves, StartUp Impact, and Dragon's Descent are also VERY excellent mods. What The Hack?! also adds a lot of really cool new approaches to mechanoids.

this vid is super chill. music choice made this vid for me tbh. perfection

I discovered your channel with Torsolo, and im realy glad , I want to play the games you play, they seem funny, may be more funny when you are playing them.Anyway thank you for this mod pack, I just downloaded Rimworld and this is gamechanging.Love your vids !

been waiting for a video like this. thanks!

That really a great video, thanks for showing me new mods for this amazing game!

QoL modes are things that I really like in every game I play, from Rimworld to Minecraft, and they increase the pleasure I get from the game to enormous levels. I have downloaded so many mods from this video(it will probably take me a few hours to try to install them all into the game) the game seems to have started all over again for me :) Thank you very much for this beautiful video, I hope that there will be more videos of this kind. I'm sorry for the bad language, I'm using yandex translation, but I don't see an error :))

I already had 20+ QOL mods installed. After this video I have installed about 20 more. Great summary.

You're the Born-Again-Christian of modding. You found your Mod-Jesus and now it's all you wanna talk about. As a peddler of mods, I approve of this while finding it amusing.

This was awesome and just the video I was hoping to find!

I started watching you on the coral island and found you funny, and so I continued watching your content and enjoying it. However, today sir you earned my sub and bell click...even though I knew about many of these mods this was a very well made video and you introduced me to some mods I am looking forward to trying myself. Good Job & Well Done!!

I know I'm late to the party but fluffys breakdown is awesome. Things will need fixing every so often or they will break. When they break you must fix them like normal vanilla with a component. This mode is a good way to conserve components.

Great video, that windows mod looks really cool. The Rimcuisine 2 mods and the Vanilla Expanded Cooking/VEPlants mods play nice together and are fun for roleplay playthroughs. There's a drugs add-on for Rimcuisine 2 that lets you make painkillers even from neolithic beginnings, as well as brewing add-ons that are pretty fun. Also Dress Patients changed my life, it should just be a base game thing but it lets you dress downed pawns - like stripped wounded prisoners - and gets rid of easy mood debuffs by just putting some fucking pants on them. Like you do with IRL bedridden people. lol

i feel more open to playing rimworld now , thank you Ambi !

Very nice video with lots of mods i haven't heard about after dozens of hours playing modded

This list was super informative!

A really really useful set of mods. Thank you.

I’m super looking forward for to all these mods! The only thing that might be tough is dumping all of them into a new play through all at once

Zombieland mod could make for an interesting survival play through especially with some of the OP combat mods you have

SNAP OUT AND MEDICAL TAB ARE SO FLIPPIN USEFUL! I tried them once and NEVER went back. And when I thought 'eh I don't use it much' and took it out, I realized just how useful it is. It tells you who's bleeding and how badly, pain levels, each stat, if they can self-tend, and apparently lets you set surgeries, but I haven't figured that bit out yet. I use it after raids to tell who needs to be treated first and who can take a backseat and when I'm making bionics to quickly tell who's missing parts so I can make the proper bionics.

Before you invest too much time into a series with androids, you need to know that they are horrendously unbalanced in terms of colony wealth. I've tried this before, and with just 3 t1 Androids and normal Crashlanded scenario beginning stuff, I was getting space pirate raids within a season on the middle difficulty. You may not think that's insane, but when you just have 4-6 wooden buildings, a bolt-action rifle and almost no security buildings, a tripple-rocket launcher is quite difficult to handle, so do be careful.

With enough mods you too can experience the wonders of never being able to play above 1x game speed! :P

This is great. You make some essential videos. Good on you and thank you.

Researchpal - Shift and scroll is to zoom in and out

I love using Simple Sidearms as it lets me build actual loadouts for my soldiers. I like having a composition of 1 Sniper 1 Light Machine Gunner 3 Assault Troopers 2 Grenadiers (these guys get regular rifles but switching to grenades make them so good against mechanoids.)

this is a big help for me every couple of seconds i pause to download a mod

Fluffy Breakdowns has been one of my highest priority mods from the moment it was created. Equipment maintenance is one of those things I just cannot accept as a pure random event. Switching breakdowns from a random event to a consequence of equipment condition was perfect, and saves so many headaches when it comes to budgeting components.

Even while I play with so few mods as possible, it is very nice overview.

This would make a great series,like always :D

25:27 I don't really know about this one but I think when I was playing not very modded gameplay with ZombieLand, the blood that was coming out of them was actually cleaning out itself after a rain rather than staying. I don't know if this was because of any mod's option or because it may disappear after some time, but if it's not in vanilla game then I think it's good that somebody added it. I still think filth should disappear much quicker.

I don't know how a video in the morning could make my day

i have played this for years and this was very useful video. thank you.

I love the Rain washes the filth~ It makes the game run a bit faster.

Great video man, keep it up!

Hashhash i love how last series he was "lmao this mods looks good idk if im into mods haha" and now he is like 100 MODS ESSENSIAL for your MODDED Rimworld EXPERIENCE!" i love u aa, keep doing ya thing

I knew you by a project zomboid video, and i stay here for your content.It's really good.

Skylight is amazing as you can create greenhouses and farm during winter (if you of course build some heaters). There is also additional mode to LMV Storage mod, that adds single storage containters.

Yo I want to say thanks for both this video and for getting me into RimWorld since it's one of my favorite games

Thank you for this, ive been trying to find some good mods to add to my game ^^

Thanks a ton for this video. I mod a lot of the games I play, and I've already modded Rimworld a fair bit, but it's difficult to find those needles in the haystacks that is the modding community for Rimworld. You have very similar tastes for the types of mods I like for Rimworld and you've even inspired me to shirk my usual strategy to just build a large colony until I get bored and actually experiment with what Tynan insists is not simply a game you play to win, but a story simulator. The first thing I'm going to do is use that one dev tool option to spawn in a premade colony (bunch of pawns, clothes, weapons, workbenches, etc, but no walls or organization) on Randy Random "losing is fun" and just see what happens. I'm not sure if you'll like this game, but the modding scene and ease is similar, plus the people who like Rimworld seem to like it; try out Starsector. It may be a fun series for your channel.

Just scrolling through at 1:30 in the morning and I see this is uploaded now it's good to work the night shift

I'm definitely interested in mods that make the colonist behavior actually make more sense. The work mod is interesting too because I would like to prioritize different crafting stations that use the same skills/job duties. Have you ever done a play through where you make it to the other side of the map where the quest is for the off world ship at the beginning of the game? Might be a different objective to try.

Would we be able to get an updated mod list for 2021? You've inspired me to pick up Rimworld and give it a go. I am an avid mod user and enjoy anything that adds to a game in general. But since I enjoy your content, It'd be cool to get your updated opinion on what you suggest and advise people to give a looksee nowadays, If you have any updated stances to begin with, that is. Keep up the good work, and I look forward to your next Rimworld series!

Good vid, straight to the point, no useless fluff

He is finally modding!!! I love your videos man, but I always thought how much of a hassle it would be to have no quality of life mods

I'm gonna have to live vicariously through you and your Rimworld playthroughs as I don't have the time to play video games lately :( I am excited for this video as it reminded me of a lot of the QOL mods I used to use in the game, but had to uninstall a lot because of incompatibility due to the 1.1 update. I'm glad that more mods have been updated because I've missed some of these mods! A warning with Hunt For Me, though. I had to uninstall it because my colonists pets kept getting killed trying to hunt small animals. If you like the smaller animals and don't want to just use them as food, be sure to keep them in a safe area or a hare will be the death of fluffy. I actually started using Achtung! because of your last Rimworld colony! I love being able to line up my colonists! Rainbeau's fishing mod is my favourite fishing mod. It can be a little OP because you get a lot of small fish and it's basically an infinite food source, but I love that it adds new recipes that give your colonists a mood boost similar to fine or lavish meals. I try to balance it out by only using the shellfish traps but it's one of my faves! It's definitely my fave fishing mod, it seems a little boring to me that other fishing mods don't add extra recipes. Rainbeau doesn't update the mods themselves anymore, but they have been getting fan updates so it's really exciting! Trading Spot is another really nice one that allows you to choose where you want traders to go. It's nice because, if you've designated other parts of the map as Home area (for example, if you use a growing zone to automatically harvest ambrosia), traders will gather at any home area and it's nice to have them gather right next to your base. I also recommend More Trade Ships because I always feel like there aren't enough traders after I built the trade beacon. Animal Food Restrictions is nice because I'd rather animals eat raw food rather than eating my nice meals. Partially Passable Wind Turbines is nice and very self explanatory. Let's Trade! is fun as t just ads new types of traders, makes it nice if you just want to sell animal skins or building supplies. Blighted Alert is nice as it just adds a notice on the side, similar to the one that shows the weather or if you have toxic fallout, so you know that you have blighted plants, but it might be unnecessary if you have the mod that allows you to cut blighted plants automatically. I love mods that add fences, like Gloomy Furniture or Fences and Floors (or fences and no floors, same thing as previous but just fences), as it seems fairly natural to have in the game. It's nice to have fenced in fields so your animals can roam free and not eat your crops, and, for me, I like it a bit better rather than just setting allowed areas. It makes it nice so wild animals can't eat your crops.

As of March 2023 this video, although outdated is still very useful. Some mods are now part of the base game, some don't have a 1.4 version but any still do and/or have been updated. Thanks!

I'd love to see more videos like this of the other kinds of mods you think are cool! Do it!

Dub Skylights is pretty much essential for me now, it seriously helps to cut down on power usage. Sunlamps take up so much but skylights don't need power and if you have a solar flare, you don't have your plants dying.

can't wait for Rimworld your next series

I smell downloading every mod coming up soon

Awesome stuff. Didn't realize most of this stuff.

Nice you convinced me to comeback into RimWorld

Oh thank god he's using the essential mods now. Watching that 100 colonist series when he didn't have the allow tool was nightmare inducing.

I'm and avid modder and I didn't know about some of these mods, great video! Here's to hoping it doesn't annihilate my compatibility...
