Best version
- For Windows and Mac OS X users the GOG.com version of Torchlight is the best because it is DRM-free and includes extra downloads including artwork, soundtrack and a level editor.
- For Linux users, the Ubuntu Software Centre version of Torchlight is the only version available, and therefore the best. WINE emulation also works very well[1].
Improvements
Official patch

Mods
- TorchED level editor can be found at GameFront.
- Most mods are found on the Runic Games Fansite.
- Mods are located in game's application data.
Recommended mods
- These are all conservative mods that essentially conserve the original gameplay. However, if you don't want to hassle too much with mods without altering the game experience too much, download Wulf Beginner's Mod Pack.
- SSS Torchlight Texture Project - Retextures most of Torchlight
- GenderMod - Adds opposite gender variants of existing classes
- Merchant Pack - Adds additional merchants
- Better Balanced Sale Prices - Balances the amount of gold acquired when selling
- Total Respec Mod - Adds 10 different respec potions into the game for resetting character's stats and skills.
HotSpot
- A portable Torchlight mod manager for Windows that is able to download and install mods automatically.
- Currently in beta, v2.0.
- Mac and Linux versions planned.
- Full features list is available on the RGF forums.
TorchKit
- This is a portable settings and mod configuration editor for Torchlight which uncovers all hidden settings from "settings.txt", (but not local_settings.txt or Ogre.txt) configuration file which includes camera shake, blood, keybindings, automap zoom etc.
Game data
- This game does not follow the XDG Base Directory Specification on Linux.
- To clear save games from the game once Steam Cloud has been used you will need to remove the save files from the Steam Cloud folder as well. The Windows and Mac save files are compatible but have to be manually synced by removing all existing save files for the target platform and then copying the source files to the regular save file location.
