Mod Management

Actions

Row actions, multi-select, options, conflicts, and Nexus Mods tools.

Row buttons and menus change with the view. Profile rows configure a loadout. Library rows manage the shared collection.

Profile row actions

ControlAction
ToggleEnable or disable the mod for this profile. Only enabled mods deploy.
ConflictsOpens conflict details when Arsenal has found overlapping patch files. Hidden otherwise.
Download updateShown when a newer Nexus Mods file is known. Becomes Install after that download finishes.
Check for updatesQueries Nexus Mods for a newer file. Disabled when the mod has no Nexus Mods identity.
OptionsOpens option / sub-option selection. Disabled when the mod has no options.

Rapid individual toggles are batched so the UI stays responsive. After a toggle, conflict highlights refresh.

Multi-selection

Select with the circle on each row, or the circle in the table header (visible mods only, separators excluded). Hold Shift and click to select a contiguous range from the last clicked row.

The bar at the bottom shows selected / selectable and a close button to clear the selection.

If a bulk copy or Nexus action finds nothing applicable (for example no selected mod has Nexus data), Arsenal notifies you and does nothing.

Mod options

Options come from the mod's manifest.json. Open them with the sliders button on a profile row.

ControlBehavior
OptionsCheckboxes. Several can be on at once.
Sub-optionsRadio buttons: one choice per parent option.
Enable an option that has sub-optionsExpands that group and selects the first sub-option if none is selected.
Disable an optionClears its sub-options.
PreviewEye overlay on option images, same as mod thumbnails.

Confirm writes the selection onto this profile only. The icon ring turns yellow/orange if the mod was already deployed, as a reminder to deploy again.

Note

Option state is per profile. The same Library mod can use different options in different profiles.

Conflict detection

In a profile, Arsenal compares enabled patch files (including files that belong to enabled options and sub-options) and marks overlapping mods with a warning icon.

Click the icon for a dialog that lists each conflicting mod, sorted by list index, with:

  • Load-order number and that mod's deploy status color
  • How many files overlap
  • Where the overlap is: Root, a named option, or Option > Sub-option
  • Whether that location is currently enabled (disabled pairs are visually muted)
  • Expand / collapse per conflicting mod

Note

Conflict warnings are informational. Overlap does not always mean the mods are incompatible. Many packs are meant to stack. Treat the dialog as a map of overlapping files, then reorder, disable, or change options as you prefer.

Resolving conflicts

ApproachEffect
ReorderChange which enabled mod is deployed last (or first), according to Settings
Disable a modIt no longer deploys and drops out of the live conflict set
Change optionsConflicts that only exist in a disabled option no longer apply at deploy time
Leave themHarmless overlaps can be ignored

Nexus Mods tools

Copies a manager-style file URL:

https://www.nexusmods.com/helldivers2/mods/123?tab=files&file_id=456&nmm=1
MOD NAME
Download Link: https://www.nexusmods.com/helldivers2/mods/123?tab=files&file_id=456&nmm=1

Enabled Options:
- Option A
- Option B > Sub-option 1

Bulk copy with settings joins several mods with a = divider.

Check for updates

Uses the Nexus Mods API for that modId / fileId. If a newer file exists, the download-update button appears and Check for Updates hides. If nothing is newer, Arsenal says so.

Bulk check reports how many of the selected Nexus Mods entries have an update.

Download and install the update

See Adding Mods for Premium in-app download, the Downloads panel, and installing from the row button once the queue item completes.

Remove versus delete

Remove from Profile

The mod leaves the current profile and stays in the Library. You can add it back later.

If the mod was deployed, Arsenal purges all deployed files from the game directory after removal. Enable and deploy again to restore a loadout. The same purge happens after a bulk remove if any selected mod was deployed.

Delete from Library

Available in the Library, in the profile more-actions menu, and on the right-click menu in both views.

This deletes the files and removes the UUID from every profile. It cannot be undone.

Warning

Library delete is permanent. Confirm the dialog only when you intend to discard the files.
