Does GeForce NOW support World of Warcraft Addons (Mods)?

Yes. This article provides information on using World of Warcraft Addons on GeForce NOW.

How is GeForce NOW enabling World of Warcraft Addons?

GeForce NOW Addons are powered by CurseForge.

How do I enable World of Warcraft Addons in GeForce NOW?

If you have a premium (paid) GeForce NOW membership, you will then see the addons option when you launch World of Warcraft (retail), World of Warcraft Classic, or World of Warcraft Cataclysm Classic on GeForce NOW. Members can enable and configure these Addons through the in-game interface.

What membership do I need to enable World of Warcraft Addons?

You must have a premium (paid) GeForce NOW membership to use Addons; they are not available for free users. If you have a premium account, you will then see the addons option when you launch World of Warcraft (retail), World of Warcraft Classic, or World of Warcraft Cataclysm Classic on GeForce NOW.

Will Addons work with different World of Warcraft expansions or versions?

Yes, Addons are available on World of Warcraft (retail), World of Warcraft Classic, or World of Warcraft Cataclysm Classic versions supported on GeForce NOW. The Addons will also work with future expansions of the games. Please note the Addons author may need to update the Addon to support updated versions of World of Warcraft. You can check the Addon on the CurseForge website to see if it’s been updated.

Which CurseForge Addons does GeForce NOW support?

We support the top 25+ CurseForge Addons. We will continue to monitor Addons and try to add more over time. Here are links to see the top CurseForge Addons:

NOTE: these Addons are not available on GeForce NOW at this time: SimulationCraft TradeSkillMaster

Do I need to login to a CurseForge account to use Addons?

No, just launch World of Warcraft on GeForce NOW and select the Addons you want to use.

Why can’t I use all Addons for World of Warcraft?

We’ve partnered with CurseForge to bring support for the most popular World of Warcraft Addons used by its community. This is just the beginning, and we’re hoping to learn from feedback from our members to improve this support over time.

When I click “Enable All Addons” when playing World of Warcraft I keep getting an error message. How do I fix that?

We do not recommend enabling all Addons on GeForce NOW. We suggest you select the list of Addons you want to use when you are running World of Warcraft.

What do I do if the Addons gives me a warning that it’s out of date?

Users may see this message for two reasons:

  • The Addons author may need to update the Addon to support the latest version of World of Warcraft. You can check the Addon on the CurseForge website to see if it’s been updated.

  • If the Addon still says it's out of date on GeForce NOW, our patching system may just be delayed to release the new Addon. Please wait a few hours and our system will patch to the latest version of that Addon

Does GeForce NOW support WeakAuras Addon?

Yes, we support WeakAuras, but please note the following:

  • WeakAuras are supported and persisted between your game launches on GeForce NOW.

  • Updated August 29, 2024: We have increased our in-stream copy limit to 65,536 (64k) characters which. This should make it easier when copying a WeakAura website (such as Wago.io) into the GeForce NOW. However if you have a large WeakAura copy, we recommend copying it into GeForce NOW in smaller chunks of text.

  • You can do in-game sharing of WeakAuras from other players using chat. NOTE: If you are having problems importing WeakAuras using the chat channel please keep trying. We have seen intermittent problems where this does not work on GeForce NOW or a standard gaming PC.

What happens if an Addon I use drops out of the top 25+ Addons? Does it get removed from GeForce NOW?

While we do not intend to remove Addons which fall outside of our top 25+ list. However, Addons may become unplayable on GeForce NOW for a variety of reasons. In that rare case, we may have to remove them.

How will GeForce NOW handle conflicting Addons?

When World of Warcraft detects conflicting Addons, a notification will alert players about the issue. To resolve this, disable one of the conflicting Addons and then click "Reload UI."

How often will the list of Addons be updated?

We update the Addons available on GeForce NOW twice a day.

NOTE: If you launch World of Warcraft and the Addon still says it's out of date on GeForce NOW, our patching system may just be delayed to release the new Addon. Please wait a few hours and our system will patch to the latest version of that Addon

Will there be a way to backup and restore Addon settings from an existing CurseForge account?

This feature isn’t available at this time.

Will Addons be saved to my GeForce NOW account or my local PC?

Addon settings are saved in the GeForce NOW cloud and will be saved between game launches on GeForce NOW. They are not saved to your local PC or your local copy of World of Warcraft.

What happens to my Addons if I switch between different GeForce NOW devices?

Addons will persist between devices using the same GeForce NOW account.

If I subscribe to GeForce NOW using a partner like GAME+ or GFN.co.kr, are Addons supported?

Yes, Addons are available to all premium members.

If I am having problems with addons, how do I fix it?

If you are having problems with addons, we suggest using the console command /reload first during your game session. If that does not work, you may have to disable the Addon.
