EDIT 4/7/2019: Mods are now hosted at https://beatmods.com and a new Mod Installer (BeatDrop 2.0 will be released later today or tomorrow to install them automatically)
For now, we’ve patched the old Beat Saber ModInstaller to work with Beat Mods. Download it here
Watch the Virtual Reality Oasis video below for a guide on installing.
If you haven’t installed the mod yet to play custom songs and are just getting started with Beat Saber, I’m excited for you. You’re about to experience a whole WORLD of new content and the ability to experience “inside” your favorite music like only VR allows! It’s really a magical experience.
To get started, you’ll need to follow this link here
Click on the modsaber-installer-setup-1.2.0.exe link under Assets to download itRun the app (click Run if Windows has any verification messages)The installer should automatically detect which version of Beat Saber you have and where you installed it. If you installed it to a custom location, you may need to manually locate it.Press “install” and you’re done! (By default, just the “essential” mods will be selected. You may check additional ones if you wish and read more about each one)
When you launch the game, you’ll now see a “Get More Songs” button in the main menu. This allows you to search for any custom songs, download them, delete them, preview them, etc. If you prefer to install songs outside of VR on your desktop, use BeatDrop, your “bookmarks” and SyncSaber or simply download any song through BEASTSABER with the “One click download” button.
SyncSaber is the newest and easiest way to get songs outside of your game. You now have the option to sync your Bsaber account with the game so that any map that you “Bookmark” from the website will automatically show up in the game. You can also “follow” mappers that you know are good and their songs will magically appear in your game every time they release one.
This is very convenient, because you can add maps for your phone, tablet, work computer, etc. and all the songs will be ready for you to play when you want to play!
Go here to get started!
If you have any issues, watch the fantastic video below, join the Beat Saber Mod Discord Group or comment below!
I don’t know if this is the right place to post this but with this new update out (today is Aprol 3rd) the link to re-install mods does not work and git-hub leads you to a 404 message, On a secondary note, if I already have these mods installed, is there a place I can go reactivate it?
unfortunately due to the creator of modsaber’s wellbeing at the moment in time modsaber has been shut down
It’s a pity you don’t have a donate button! I’d certainly donate

Is there any news on when Beatdrop 2.0 will be ready? It’s been a few days and I really like to get back to playing some good songs please.
Will you be updating your blog with a more detailed tutorial once beatdrop2.0 is released?
Any new update on when Beatdrop 2.0 is ready?
I just tried downloading the mod manager, and it kept asking to check my internet connection because it failed to get version info. I know my internet connection is perfectly fine, so is this an issue with the app currently? Or is there a simple fix for this? Thanks in advance!
I’m sorry, not sure how I missed seeing these comments! Did it start working again? I believe the server was down for a couple hours that day, but should be good now. Let me know if you’re still having issues and I can walk you through it.
I have the ModSaber installer v1.2.7 and whenever I run it I get a Connection Error every time. I followed the steps above and I’m wondering if I’m missing something. I’m not super tech savvy or else I might be able to figure it out on my own.
Specifically it says: Error: request to https://www.modsaber.org/api/v1.1/mods/approved/newest-by-gameversion/8 failed reason: connect ETIMEDOUT 104.24.121.18:443
Hmm, It seems to be a rare error with CloudFlare. It’s not something that can really be fixed since it only seems to affect users with slower network connections. If you’re still getting it after a little while, try this older installer here: https://github.com/Umbranoxio/BeatSaberModInstaller/releases
Thank you for the response. That worked perfectly.
I did a quick google speed test and it says I have 200mbps down and 13.6 up. I’ll keep trying the modsaber periodically to see if anything changes.
Again, thanks for the reply.
Sorry if you’re already aware of the problem, but I just tried the new beat saber mod manager linked at the top to interface with the new site on the 0.13.2 version, and it went through the download process, claimed everything was installed, I start up the game and… nothing. I get a logo, and then I get an empty black void. No way to interface with anything and it seems to lag on a force-shutdown command. I’m using a VIVE through steamVR if that helps explain anything, but the game is entirely unplayable with the mods in this state.
Just tried against with a clean download of the game from steam, a fresh download of Beat Saber Mod Manager v3.0.5, everything claimed to be properly installed, then everything crashed right after the title screen again. I’ve got a command line that opened at the same time, saying
[CRITICAL @ 20:42:26 | UnityEngine] NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
[CRITICAL @ 20:42:26 | UnityEngine] MainSystemInit+c__Iterator0.MoveNext () (at :0)
[CRITICAL @ 20:42:26 | UnityEngine] UnityEngine.SetupCoroutine.InvokeMoveNext (System.Collections.IEnumerator enumerator, System.IntPtr returnValueAddress) (at :0)
It looks to me like somebody got sloppy updating one of the required mods and tried to send the pointer to a location that no longer exists, cause the whole thing to freeze eternally, but I don’t know what to do about that if it is the case.
Does anybody know a cause or any kind of workaround for this?
Using windows mixed reality headset the mod stops my controller from selecting menu items like solo party. It points at them but they don’t highlight like normal and I’m stuck.
I’m sorry for the delayed response, I assume you’ve gotten in working. If not, PM me and I’ll be happy to walk you through some things!
Nice
Beat Saber says that the SongLoader plugin has cancelled loading every time I start the game. What do I do?
Try it now. Modsaber was down this morning. It’s back up and working now!
It moved the files to a different folder called incompatible plugins. I moved them over to the plugins folder and now I can get custom songs to load although beatsaver doesn’t appear :c then again apparently v 0.12.0 came out right when I tried modding Beat Saber so it’ll prolly be a bit before that plugin is updated.
Hi im new to beat saber but absolutley love. i’ve only got it on psvr, is there a way to add mod to it?
Unfortunately, no 🙁 The mods and music are only for the PC version. The devs did say a whole bunch of new song packs are coming out, so at least you’ll be able to get some more really high quality maps that way.
Chrome won’t download the installer (or even the source) as of 11/28/2018. It claims it’s malware. 🙁
Great tool! It enhances the BS experience so much! Thanks a lot
Does this not work with oculus rift? Can’t find where beat saber is installed
Why isnt this picking up my already downloaded custom songs? I spent so much time downloading songs and now this player doesnt see any of them that are in the custom songs folder…
Modsaber now costs money to install. In fact it costs $100 if you want to install all the options.
That was an April Fools prank. Mods will not cost money and actually Modsaber Installer has been discontinued (check the description for the latest updated).
I downloaded the mod installer, but when I open beta saber it acts as though nothing has happened. Do I need to download songs first?
Also, wherever I download the mod installer it doesn’t show an option for custom songs. The only options are:
Illusion plugin utils
Song loader
Beat saber utils
Harmony
Ini file parser
Newtonsoftmjson
I just updated the description. Modsaber Installer is no longer supported as we’re moving to a new and better solution. Sorry about that!
this is BROKEN? How do I download the modsaber song plugin so I can play all the 400 or so songs i’ve already downlaoded?
I just updated the description of the current status. The Modsaber Installer will no longer be used and a new installer will be up soon!
I love this game and I really appreciate this Mod Installer. I just wanna ask whether the latest Mod Installer is not supported by game itself and you have to develop a new one or just you want to make a new Mod Installer?
Cuz I can see several comments which shows their disappointment had been made in Steam today. Those players think the game developers banned the current mods and the Mod Installer. Just wanna figure out the truth. Cuz I really like this game and I don’t think the developers would make such an unwise decision.
I would really appreciate you if I can get an answer. I don’t want to see this great game and your works be hit with some inappropriate comments. 🙂
Excited to see BeatDrop 2.0, could be a really nice one-stop-shop for Beat Saber mods and songs.
what exactly have you seen? because so far i havent seen jack – want to play my songs ><
Plss down load saber
It’s really annoying that I cannot play my songs anymore. I hope the new beatdrop 2.0 will arrive soon. Should really have finished it before breaking the old one. I think the beatsaber devs should include this in the game because it’s a big part of the appeal of beatsaber.
It seems the link to the manual install explanations is much better then 3 days ago. I was complaining about no new install for the mods, but what can the people here do? The original modder stopped and they have to scramble to get a new version out I guess. I can play with modded songs again! If you really want to, you can follow the manual instructions.
I just tried BeatDrop out, quite a remarkable tool.
What I’m wondering, will it be able to link to my account to auto install the Songs I have in my Bookmarks? This would be the feature I need for every update of BeatSaber, then I don’t have to search for my old songs again.
Great! We’ll be releasing BeatDrop 2 any day now and it’s been written from the ground up to be quite a bit better, so look out for that!
The feature that you described is what we built with SyncSaber directly into the game as a plugin, so you don’t even need to open a separate app. SyncSaber creates a playlist of any of your bsaber bookmarks that you can then edit in BeatDrop.
Your last update mentions Beatdrop 2.0 being released “later today or tomorrow” , that was April 7. It is now April 12 and there has been no update. Wondering what is happening with beatdrop 2.0.
Thats what i thought, turns out they silently released it https://bsaber.com/beatdrop/
Hi. . .
please guide me , how to install Bear Saber on VR scene . .
Thanks
So I just installed beatdrop yesterday and installed bunch of mods and launched my game but nothing shows, and I reinstalled my game and beatdrop then for some reason clicked “scan songs” and beatdrop kept scaning songs for 10+ mins with an empty custom song folder. Tried uninstalling the app, uninstall then clean registry then restart, reinstall, the scan just starts automatically and doesnt stop for ever. 🙁
Why is this tutorial outdated?
I love Beat Saber, but it always seems to give me trouble. I wanted to install some mods so I downloaded the newest mod installer (I had the previous ones too) and now my Beat Saber refuses to launch. Can anyone help?
need help cant get beat saber to run at all
“BeatDrop 2.0 will be released later today or tomorrow to install them automatically”
Bullshit.
Pull your finger out of your ass and click upload.
Hey, if you have beat saber custom songs downloaded on Xbox one version?
Beat Saber is a VR game, so until Microsoft makes an Xbox VR HMD, unfortunately Xbox players are left out. 🙁
I don’t use Beat Saber, but I think some online song downloaders and free hd video converter factory are great tools to help us download songs and make some edits.
