i don't see the cd key option in my links

[Just A Normal Person]

could you please help me because i am trying to download the mod "elder kings" and it doesn't say the cd key if i right click on crusader kings 2 or if i select it and look to the right under links the cd key option isn't there but it is for other games.

The CD key system is no more. The new method of registering your games is by connecting your steam and paradox accounts. See this thread for details: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/connect-your-steam-account-to-sync-your-owned-items.894506/

i already did connect it but it says to do that AND use the cd key

[Alpaca Rotorvator]

No, what it tells you there is how it worked on the old system. Like I said, under the new system there are no cd keys anymore.
After connecting it, have you synced your owned items?

Log in, hover your mouse over your name top right and click on Owned Items.
There is an option to synch your games.

Read the link !

Registering your games gives you access to subforums, nothing more , nothing less.

i just don't see why they removed the cd key. what does it matter if there is some thrid party or something because i have spent over a day trying to figure out what to do i reinstalled the mod 9 times, i reinstalled my ck2 5 times before he answered, spent 2 hours searching for the damn sync items thing then i find out it's for some ♥♥♥♥♥♥ sub forums i am never going to want or use and i still have no phuckin clue on how to install the mod

They removed keys, as it's, suddenly, too much work for them, so they said.
Yes it's a stupid excuse and i don't agree with them but that's how they decided.

You need access to the mod subforum to download the mod, get news on it and discuss it.

Unzip/extract it (the rar/zip file contains a mod folder and a file with the modname) to the 'mod' folder in Documents/Paradox Interactive/Ck2 .
Done.

Go to the stickied thread in the mods' subforum with the link for the mod,
follow that link and download it.

No mystery or magic involved.
You don't want me to take your hand , do you...

You already got the link to the subfourm for Elder Kings, you should be capable to find the thread on your own.

m8 i've never been on that webiste before like yesterday. you just said you need to get the subforums to download it then told me what to do after you download it so i asked how i am not a 2 year old. i have no clue how to get to the stickied thread or even the mods subforum i haven't a clue how to find the thread in the elder kings sub forum.
