How to download mods on victoria 2

Anyone disappointed by the cancellation of East vs West, the semi-mythical Paradox foray into the Cold War, can find at least some solace in this remarkably detailed conversion of Victoria II to the modern day. The sheer complexity of modern institutions means that a large amount of potential events must be bolted on through event pop ups. These can get annoying after a while. You can grab the mod here. Yet there is method to such madness.

In many ways NEM needs further development. A start date in and is appreciated, but it is somewhat off-putting to find a s Germany with something like three hundred thousand men under arms and no Versailles Treaty.

Grab it here. An ominous title conceals a quite eclectic alternate history mod that does everything at once. What if China had kept on exploring the seas around it? What if Burgundy remained independent? What if Scandinavia remained a unified state? The result is anarchy — which, in the best traditions of Paradox fans, has had quite a bit of thought put into it. Concealed beneath are the various improvements of the Pop Demand Mod covered later. The point here is to maintain the fundamentals of Victoria II whilst improving a variety of things under the hood.

Probably the most noticeable change are the dramatically increased number of decisions available to players. Want to form the Roman Empire? Go crazy! Fittingly, BAI stands out from the pack thanks to the changes it brings to war.

Whilst new units are added in the other mods mentioned — BAI adding Stormtroopers to the mix does a better job of reflecting the changes World War I brought than most mods surveyed — where 19th century armies apparently are the beginning and end of things.

This is just the tip of the iceberg for a host of new additions that certain total conversion mods covered above might do well to note. War is hardly the only thing BAI covers of course, with a variety of event chains and other additions.

Another notable addition is the inclusion of several of the more powerful trading companies, like the notorious East India Company. At the moment, the mod only touches up mountains and hills — the creator has plans to improve the heightmaps across the game, perhaps even adding water effects as well at some point down the line. I cannot comment upon their quality myself my Victoria II save games are long gone! The following is the procedure for most mods:. Step Two: With the mod folder found, open up the compressed mod file.

Could someone please help us out here? You should see your mods listed in the launcher before you actually start the game, just pick which ones you want to use and you should be good to go. Hope this helps! I already solved this, thanks for telling me though. Is there a specific name I should call the new folder because it is still not working for me. Varainger View Profile View Posts. With any expansions it's the mod folder inside the game folder. Without any expansion its overwriting original files, at least it used to be.
