Mod targets

Target Path under game folder Notes
Pak mods PAYDAY3/Content/Paks/~mods Primary target for pak files. Disabled files are kept under disabled with a .disabled suffix.
UE4SS mods PAYDAY3/Binaries/Win64/Mods Used for Lua mods when UE4SS is installed. Modrex excludes bundled UE4SS framework modules from the installed list.

Most PAYDAY 3 .pak mods require -fileopenlog. Add it in Settings - Launch Options for Steam and Epic Games, or configure it in the launcher if the app cannot write launch options for that launcher.

For .pak mods, Modrex writes numeric filename prefixes so your visual priority order is reflected on disk. Directory-based UE4SS mods are not renamed for priority.
