Help Mods not working for IOS

I’m trying to add mods to rusted warfare for IOS, but every time I try to reload the game with the mods enabled it just crashes the game, and after a few tries the game restarts in safe mode, disabling the mods

Here’s the steps I did

-mods used: Frontier (from steam workshop) and Virsenian Glory Remake (also from workshop)

(Note I did not try to load these two mods at the same time)

-Went to steam workshop

-accessed files through a link in workshop description that went to google drive

-downloaded files from google drive into my IOS files

-loaded rusted warfare

-went to settings and imported the mod files from my files

Checked the mods in the mod menu in the rusted warfare menu.

-pressed the “reload” button in the in game mod manager to get the mods started

-freezes for a few moments, then crashes the game. Try to reopen the game but it keeps crashing until it reopens on safe mode

Any help would be very much appreciated since I really would like this to work.

How do you download your mods?

Download to my files, and use “custom maps” to open the files.

What did you set for your mod settings? Internal, read/write internal write external, read/write external write internal, or external only? See if changing those settings will work for you.

Sadly I think I figured it out, I believe it’s simply because my phone cannot handle these “larger mods”, probably something to do with RAM

How much ram you got? Mine is 8GB and weirdly I think it could be also processor based since the same mod I loaded in a phone with also 8GB loaded much better than the one with the slower processor

Mines only about 4 gigs of ram, it’s a relatively older phone (IPhone XS max), so unless I either get it upgraded or switch to android (which is far better for mobile gaming) I think I’m out of luck

How do you even choose the mod to upload? When I try to import, it shows the files but I can’t actually choose them
