📋 About This Mod
This mod allows you to spawn any creatures you wish in games that you control. Currently, this is only the Prologue and the Meat Grinder training area.
The full features are:
-
[]Spawn any creature, sorted by lists in Mod Options
[
]Trials / spawn wave system written by Grimalackt[]Save up to 3 creatures with the /save_unit <number> command and spawn them through separate hotkeys
[]Display the names of your saved creatures with the /selected_units command
[]Despawn all creatures
[]Hotkeys to heal, restore toughness, reset ability cooldown, and assist the player in the Meat Grinder
[]Disable vanilla spawns in the Meat Grinder
[]Disable the sound muffler in the Meat Grinder
[]Disable player invisibility in the Meat Grinder (toggle keybind)
[]Disable player invulnerability in the Meat Grinder (toggle keybind)
All hotkeys are unassigned by default, so open Mod Options and set them to start using the mod.
Spawning creatures outside of their normal levels and some actions (e.g. dying in the Meat Grinder) with the mod can cause crashes. At worst you'll have to restart the game, but use at your own risk.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge download count (104,968) shows it's a go-to for many players.
- Nearly 2,000 endorsements means the community digs it.
- Adds Meat Grinder improvements, so it's not just a spawner.
⚠️ Cons
- Only works in self-hosted lobbies, so no use in official matchmaking.
- Last updated July 2026, but no guarantee it's compatible with the latest game patches.
- Potential conflicts with other mods that alter spawn logic or the Meat Grinder.
For Darktide players who host their own lobbies and want to test builds or create custom challenges. Also great for players who enjoy the Meat Grinder and want extra features. Skip if you only play official matchmaking or don't care about spawning enemies.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you're hosting a private lobby, as spawning won't work in official games.
- Check the mod's page for any required mod loader like Darktide Mod Framework.
- Use the Meat Grinder enhancements to practice against specific enemy types.
