Can't use mods

[Walrus]

I have the full version but i can't use mods for some reason.

[Darth Revan]

maybe the mods you want to use are made for a older game version and dont work with the newest version. can you give a bit more details please?

[Walrus]

The mods don't show up anywhere. The mod i want to use was last updated 3.6.2017

[Darth Revan]

when you start the game there is the tab workshop above of the news. if you click on it the mod you want to use is not shown there?

[Walrus]

Yes

[Darth Revan]

is the mod in the right game folder? if you check the installation folder of call to arms ther is a folder called mods, is the mod inside this folder?

[Walrus]

Nope

[Darth Revan]

the mod must be inside this folder or you cant use it and it will not show in the workshop tab

[Walrus]

How do i do that?

[Darth Revan]

have you downloaded the mod with the worksop or from somewhere else and what kind of mod is it? if its only a map i am not shure if it must be in that folder.

[Walrus]

I have downloaded the mod from the workshop and its a campaign mod i believe

[Walrus]

For some reason the mod wasn't even downloaded so that's the problem thanks for your help.

[Darth Revan]

no problem, i wish you much fun with the mod. :)

hi so i downloaded a set of five mods i believe and they are all faction mods that should add a faction and improve the other two so basically i downloaded them from the workshop and they show up in my workshop tab in the game but it only gives me two options to either unsubscribe or delete the mod and below it says in red letters that i dont have the right game version for the mods

[Darth Revan]

the mods with the red letters are made for a older game version.

1) go to the mod folder and open the folder of the mod. (the "mod" folder is locatet in the folder the game is installed, in order to find it quickly right click at the game in your libriary than click on options, than click at local data and than to search local data(the first tab))

2) you will find a file called mod.info there, open it with a text editor.

3) in this file you see something with game version.

It could look like this for example:

{mingameversion "0.913.0"}
{maxgameversion "0.913.0"}

4) replace the game version with the newest, i dont know whats the newest version but you can see it at the upper left corner of the screen when you start the game.

5) do this with all mods which are made for a older game version. (those with the red letters in the worksop tab)

it is not garanteed that the mods work with the new game version but at least you can enable it and look if it works.
