You can install MegaMod 9 via the Steam Workshop or direct download. Direct download is generally more stable Option 1: Direct Download (Recommended) How To Download & Install MegaMod 9 (Banished)

The air in your settlement is thin, and the old ways of building are starting to feel... small. You’ve heard the legends of Installing is a bit more involved than standard

, a massive collection of tools, buildings, and professions that promises to turn your humble village into a sprawling empire. But installing a mod this large is a saga in itself.

Here is the story of how you bring the MegaMod to your people. Chapter 1: The Gathering of Files

Before you can build, you must acquire the knowledge. You head to the BlackLiquid Software forums or the Banished Nexus. You aren't looking for a single file; MegaMod 9 is a titan, often split into multiple parts (usually 1 through 3) to prevent the game engine from buckling under its weight.

The Download: You carefully download all required parts. You ensure they are for the 1.0.7 version of Banished, as the mod requires the modern 64-bit architecture to breathe. Chapter 2: Placing the Foundation

With the files safely in your "Downloads" folder, you navigate to the heart of your game. You find the path:C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Banished\WinData

You move the MegaMod files—those bulky .pkm files—into this WinData folder. You do not overwrite anything; you simply add them to the library of your world. Chapter 3: The Ritual of Activation

You launch Banished. The main menu looks the same, but the tension is high. You click Mods.

There they are. You see the various parts of MegaMod 9. This is where many settlers fail: The Load Order. You enable them one by one, ensuring MegaMod sits at the top of your list. If you use other mods like "Colonial Charter," you make sure MegaMod is positioned to take priority (or follow the specific compatibility instructions provided by the creators). Chapter 4: The Great Freeze

You click "OK." The game freezes. The music stops. Your computer fans hum with effort. Step 3: Installing the Mod File With the

Do not panic. This is the "Mod Rebuild." The game is stitching thousands of new assets into its code. It might look like it has crashed, but it is merely thinking. You wait—sometimes for five minutes, sometimes for ten—until the menu finally returns. Chapter 5: A New Beginning

You start a New Game. You notice new "Starting Conditions" and "Map Types." You pick a lush valley, and as your citizens step off the wagon, you open the build menu.

Instead of five icons, you have dozens. You have bakeries, specialized mines, and decorative fences. The village is no longer just surviving; with MegaMod 9, it is finally ready to thrive.

Step 3: Installing the Mod File

With the file downloaded, installation is a matter of placing it in the correct folder.

  1. Locate your Banished WinData folder. This is usually:
    • Windows (Steam): C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Banished\WinData
    • Windows (GOG): C:\GOG Games\Banished\WinData
    • Mac: Inside the Banished application package (right-click → Show Package Contents → Contents → Resources → WinData)
  2. Copy the Megamod9.pkm file directly into the WinData folder. Do not put it in a subfolder.
  3. Important: If you have any other mod .pkm files in WinData from previous installations (e.g., older Megamods or standalone mods), move them to a backup folder elsewhere. Megamod 9 already contains almost every other mod, and conflicts will arise.

For Steam Users (Windows):

  1. Open Steam → Library → Right-click Banished → Manage → Browse Local Files.
  2. This opens: Steam\steamapps\common\Banished\
  3. Navigate into the Windata folder.
  4. Inside Windata, find or create a folder named: Mods (case sensitive).
  5. Copy the downloaded BanishedMegamod9.pkm into the \Banished\Windata\Mods\ folder.

Step 5 – Verify Installation

After the restart:

4. Install MegaMod 9

  1. Copy MegaMod9.pkm into the Windata folder (do not put it in a subfolder).
  2. Do not rename the file.
  3. Ensure no other .pkm files remain in Windata (move or delete them – backup if you want).

5. Activate in Game

  1. Launch Banished.
  2. Main menu → Mods.
  3. You’ll see MegaMod9 in the list – check the box to enable it.
  4. Click Apply.
  5. Game will restart automatically (may take 1–2 minutes to reload).

Troubleshooting Common Issues

"The game freezes on the loading screen." This usually means a file conflict. If you have other mods active in your WinData folder that aren't part of Megamod, delete or move them. Keep only the vanilla game files and the Megamod file.

"My game crashes when I place a building." This is almost always the RAM limit. Try starting a new game with a "Hard" start (fewer people/resources) to reduce the initial calculation load.

"My menu is too cluttered." Megamod adds thousands of items. Be prepared to scroll through very long toolbar menus. The mod organizes them by theme (Production, Housing, Decoration), but the learning curve is steep. Using the "Filter" button in the build menu to search for specific items is highly recommended.

Steam (default):

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Banished\Windata

Or through Steam:
Right-click Banished → Manage → Browse local files → Windata folder.
