Does the Reloaded II mod manager disable steam achievements?

[Hysorn]

I got the cutscenes mod but I don't seem to be able to get "The Other Self" achievement.

Why do people keep asking this, it baffles me. Why would a mod maker specifically hack out the achievements? The game itself doesn't care (or even know) it's being modded.

Pretty much the only exception is Fallout 4 and only because that game was made with mod support in mind, so the devs specifically accounted for this use case. And still there's a mod that lets you earn achievements even when playing modded.

It's not intentional. I think what happens is that the cutscene mod replace the event that triggers the achievement, I am playing this game for the first time so I don't know if there are other achievements tied to events that get replaced by cutscenes but yeah, The Other Self only works without the mod, other achievements seem to work fine however, so as far as I can tell it's more of a mod issue rather than the mod manager itself.

Oh that actually makes sense, sorry for the overreaction. But anyhow, you should try contacting the mod author on Game Banana, I doubt they check Steam forums.

I don't want to bump this thread, but OP is probably right. I use this mod and I didn't get The Other Self achievement. If you plan to use cutscenes mod, then play unmodded game first to unlock this achievement.

I think I know why this is. The trigger for that achievement is placed in the 3D rendered portable version of the awakening scene. The cutscene mod completely removes/skips over that scene replacing it with the cutscene instead. As a result, the trigger for that achievement is also skipped over. The mod creator could probably fix it by adding the achievement trigger into the cutscene, but until then, either play that part with the cutscene mod off or use that one program to unlock it.

It affects the the first achievement for sure (You can use Steam Achievement Manager for this), but other achievements have been popping properly for me.
