Setup the path's, without using steam let the path for steam mod's empty.

(worked well, but sometimes overrun and you still need to copy/unzip the mod manualy) (bad expierence since i rarely got he latest version of the mod even after tynan set some flag) I discoved some websites which allow to download workshop mods. Since 95% of all mods are released at the workshop and only a few of the mod author's provide non-steam download link it was sometimes frustrating to get interesting mods. In FFXV mods works great, when I use ModOrganizer, but fbx files with texture - hard to find (easy only nude).This is for the minority of people who don't use steam for various reason. I suspect that Steam 'locks' the workshop by default, which is why newer games tend to often not be accessible via the downloader - meaning it's up to the game's publisher to explicitly set the workshop to be available.Īh ok. If you want a mod that's currently 'locked' for you because you don't have it on Steam, your options are:ġ) Contact the publisher of the game and get them to unlock it (this sometimes works - Klei unlocked Invisible Inc workshop mods for example).Ģ) See if the mod is available elsewhere, such as Moddb or NexusMods - if not, contact the developer of the mod and get them to get their shit together.

The API Steam downloader (and similar web pages and tools) uses is a web-based API - it never had anything to do with the game itself.

This is nothing to do with Steam Downloader and the API, and everything to do with the publisher of the game not enabling those who don't own the game on Steam to download workshop mods. In the past the steam workshop used to use a different system where the game itself would download mods using an API, which I think is what that steam workshop downloader is trying to use.

It all goes through the steam client now. 'I think it's not actually possible to use a downloader for newer steam workshop stuff, because it uses the same download depot system for mods as for games. Guess GOG users are not allowed to use mods for that game. 'The game that this item belongs too does not allow downloading of its items' on for some games like Hat In Time, you're fucked
