Mechromancer DLC installed but not recognized by the game

[Djörk]

I own the GOTY version and have both character DLCs checked off and installed, however Gaige the Mechromancer cannot be selected from the list (Krieg can be, however). Selecting the Mechromancer brings me to the steam store page even though I already own the DLC and have it installed.

Google searches have suggested verifying the game cache but doing that didn't solve this problem (although it says 1 file will be reacquired), as did deleting the DLC folder and redownloading it.

Has anyone else that's run into this issue found a fix that I seem to be missing? I'd really like to play this character but have exhausted all options I can think of.

you probably need to contact gearbox support directly

Go to that arrow in the top right. Corner next to that little head icon then it should bring you to the updates of every game you have installed you'll have to MANUALLY install the update for gaige trust me this happened to me when I installed kreig and gaige and the headhunter dlcs but thank god you'll only have to do this once. Have fun with gaige mang hope this helps ya

I found the solution! Apparently my game did not want to recognize that Mechromancer Pack was installed until I clicked the checkbox for the premiere club DLC, and that fixed all my issues.

I know this is super old but I want to give it a boost for people looking for this as it is the only place that actually has the answer to this.

Did you have this problem and this worked for you or are you just "boosting" it because you thought it might help ?

Usually on steam if peoples DLC isn't recognized the solution is to just restart steam , sometimes it bugs out during the install and forgets to set the DLC , other times you might need to go and edit a text file to tell it you have the DLC (this won't work if you don't actually have it legitimately).

If this solution is still needed the steps to get to DLC are different now , You can just right click the game in your steam library , click properties , click DLC and the box with all the DLC will pop up and you can look and see if there is a check mark next to everything

While you are at it make sure you DO NOT have the HD texture pack and if you do have it make sure you UNCHECK it , because that DLC causes serious crashes and problems with the game , it was poorly designed and never fixed.

what if doing all doesn't work at all, i bought every DLC (except the HD texture pack) and the game doen't recognize UVH1 at all, can you explain for the text file edit (i tried all but didn''t fixed it)
