how to manually download mods for hearts of iron 4

Note if the mod is made for an older version and it has issues you can use winmerge doc comparer program to update it yourself if you feel like it.Originally posted by BjornB:Currently most mods have one mod descriptor, usually ModName.mod. The path and 'supported_version='2.5.*' need to be edited in this 'descriptor.mod' as well just to be on safe side. Note some mods contents are in zipped form after extraction from archives like those ugc_1181575896Īrchive='C:/Users/your user/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/mod/pdx_13/downscaled_ships.zip'Īlso in the actual mod folder(as in Murder AI folder) where the mod contents really are should have a doc as well called 'descriptor.mod' and it should have the same contents as the other doc. you gotta change to 2.5.* for it activate in-game) Supported_version='2.5.*' (note if this isn't 2.5.* it means it wasn't updated for last stellaris version. Path='C:/Users/your username/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/mod/Murder AI' (this needs to be edited with your folder path) Open it with a text file editor like notepad/notepad++ and you'll see something like this. Now we assume the 'something.mod' is called 'Murder AI.mod' If it has a folder named 'something' with a 'something.mod' document you are good. I think the mod folder is in them with it's text.mod document.Īnyway take one of those ugc_1181575896 etc and try extract it inside the mod folder (C:/Users/your username/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/mod). you better try to unzip them with 7zip or some other extractor. I'm gonna assume that each one of those things are one mod each and probably a kind of zip file.
