I can't count the number of issues I've had to troubleshoot as a result of the Workshop and I know its systems and limitations in detail, so I feel fairly qualified to explain what makes the system inadequate compared to the standard methods the community uses for mod installation.
#WHERE DO STEAM WORKSHOP MODS GO DOWNLOAD#
You don't necessarily need to have it installed, just owned, to download mods for it.Holocron requested that I go into some general detail for the community about why the Steam Workshop is generally bad for modding, both to have all the issues laid out and easily referenced, and to clarify some common misconceptions. If you're really dead-set on modding a game with workshop files, consider checking a place like ITAD or gg.deals for a good price on a Steam copy of your game. There are places that mirror workshop items, but I would be leery of downloading anything executable from them. Once downloaded, you should be able to use the mods as you wish - such as moving them to your GOG installation directory.You can however explore other mod websites, such as: If you do not own the game for which you are trying to download mods and the publisher has not allowed downloads, then this operation will error out cryptically.To download a workshop mod, run workshop_download_item where AppId is the depot of whatever game you want to download mods for and WorkshopId is the ID of the workshop item you wish to download.To override this behaviour, run force_install_dir within the steamcmd terminal, for example I would use force_install_dir H:\Games\StellarisMods\. By default, files will be downloaded under steamcmd's directory to somewhere like.Use login anonymous or login from within the steamcmd terminal to do this. You will need to log in either as an anonymous or authenticated user depending on whether or not game ownership is required to download workshop content.You can run the tool directly or from another terminal like cygwin or cmd. Download steamcmd which is Valve's official command-line tool for running dedicated game servers and mods.I know for a fact that Paradox doesn't let you download mods for say, Stellaris without owning it on Steam. There's no easy way to tell whether they do or not, until you try and fail. This varies from game to game and depends on whether or not the publisher allows mods to be downloaded without owning their game on steam.
