Mods that are available in one variant may not be available in the other. Due to the enormous number of changes in the 1.4.0.1 (Journey's End) update, which required fundamental alterations of the tweaked base game, there are two 'variants' of tModLoader: One that is based on Terraria 1.3.5.3 ('1.3-legacy') and one that is based on Terraria 1.4.3.6 ('1.4-stable'). tModLoader's version of Terraria is therefore updated separately from the vanilla game. The normal, ' vanilla' Terraria and tModLoader are entirely separate, as the base game is included in tModLoader and is tweaked to allow modding. The official wiki, with information about creating mods and using tModLoader, can be found on GitHub. tModLoader is developed by the TML Team and is released by them as a standalone program, although it is also available on Steam as Terraria DLC.

The built-in Mod Browser facilitates downloading and updating mods, as well as uploading one's own mods. TModLoader ( TML) is a free program which allows playing Terraria with mods.
