#How to use steam workshop mods for non steam games download
If the mod background stays red in the launcher after the download has completed in Steam client, it likely means the installation failed: If not, you can force a re-download of the mod by looking into C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\\ugc for files & folders referencing the mod (for instance 203770_subscriptions.vdf and \referenced\45371260977302539\mod\), deleting them and restarting Steam client. Verify mod file and archive are present in folder ~\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings II\mod.Note that Steam cloud sync appears to be broken for mods with capitals in user_dir. Make sure you have Steam Cloud enabled.In case no download progress appears in Mod tab, check the setting for downloading while game is running ( Steam -> Settings -> Downloads -> Allow downloads during gameplay).Try subscribing to the mod in Steam client, while CK2 launcher is already started.Verify you haven't reached the 50 subscribed mods limit.If the mod doesn't show up in the launcher:
Once the download has completed, tick the checkbox to activate the mod. At the same time a "Crusader Kings II - Workshop Content" download will be triggered in Steam client (where you can monitor progress). Under "Mods" tab, the new mod will appear at the bottom of the mod list as unselectable, with a red background (which does not reflect download progress !). Find the mod on the CKII Steam Workshop. mod file already exists with same name under ~\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings II\mod\ it will conflict during the installation. Important: Remove any previous manual installation of the mod if any. In FFXV mods works great, when I use ModOrganizer, but fbx files with texture - hard to find (easy only nude). I suspect that Steam "locks" the workshop by default, which is why newer games tend to often not be accessible via the downloader - meaning it's up to the game's publisher to explicitly set the workshop to be available.Īh ok. If you want a mod that's currently "locked" for you because you don't have it on Steam, your options are:ġ) Contact the publisher of the game and get them to unlock it (this sometimes works - Klei unlocked Invisible Inc workshop mods for example).Ģ) See if the mod is available elsewhere, such as Moddb or NexusMods - if not, contact the developer of the mod and get them to get their shit together. The API Steam downloader (and similar web pages and tools) uses is a web-based API - it never had anything to do with the game itself. This is nothing to do with Steam Downloader and the API, and everything to do with the publisher of the game not enabling those who don't own the game on Steam to download workshop mods. In the past the steam workshop used to use a different system where the game itself would download mods using an API, which I think is what that steam workshop downloader is trying to use. It all goes through the steam client now. "I think it's not actually possible to use a downloader for newer steam workshop stuff, because it uses the same download depot system for mods as for games. Guess GOG users are not allowed to use mods for that game. "The game that this item belongs too does not allow downloading of its items" on for some games like Hat In Time, you're fucked
