Nexus Mod Manager Meets Steam Workshop? - posted in XCOM 2 Mod Troubleshooting: Okay, so some of the mods on Nexus Mod Manager suggest mods that I can only find in the steam workshop.

This document is intended to help you answer any questions that you may have about XCOM 2: War of the Chosen

  1. Does XCOM 2: War of the Chosen support achievements?

    Yes, achievements are supported by XCOM 2: War of the Chosen.

    If you are signed in to Steam, your achievements will be visible to you in-game and also to other players through the Steam application.

  2. How do I use mods in the Steam version of XCOM 2: War of the Chosen for Mac?

    There are two ways to install mods: you can either subscribe to mods via the Steam Workshop (this installs the mods automatically), or you can download mods from other sources and install them manually.

    Once you have installed a mod, you can enable it by using the Mod Manager. To access the Mod Manager, select the Mod Manager tab on the pre-game Options window (this is the window that appears when you launch the game).

    You'll find full instructions on using mods below.

    Mod stability and compatibility

    The vast majority of mods are made by amateur developers: many mods have not been thoroughly tested, and some may cause crashes or other stability issues.

    Many mods are incompatible with each other. Enabling incompatible mods may cause the game to crash. If you plan to enable multiple mods at once, we recommend checking the mods' documentation for information about their compatibility with other mods.

    Saved games and mods

    It is possible to add mods to a saved game: you can enable mods and load a saved game made before those mods were enabled. However, we recommend enabling any mods you want to use before starting a new game, rather than adding them to an existing game.

    It is not possible to remove mods from a saved game: if you save a game while using one or more mods, you must always have those mods enabled while playing that saved game. If you disable any of those mods, you will be unable to load the saved game.

    Installing mods via the Steam Workshop

    The easiest way to install mods is to subscribe to them via the Steam Workshop. Subscribing to a mod installs it automatically.

    To subscribe to a mod:

    1. Open the Steam application.

    2. Download recover my files full crack bagas31. Select Library.

    4. In the list of links on the right-hand side of the window, select Community Hub.

    5. Select the Workshop tab.

    6. Use the Browse tab in the workshop to search for mods. To subscribe to a mod, click on the Subscribe button (“+” icon) on the mod.


    The next time you launch the game, any mods to which you have subscribed will appear in the Mod Manager on the pre-game Options window.

    To unsubscribe from a mod:

    You can also unsubscribe from mods via the Steam Workshop. To do so:

    1. From the Workshop tab, place your mouse pointer over the Browse tab, then select Subscribed Items from the drop-down menu.

    2. A list of the mods to which you are subscribed will appear. Click on the Unsubscribe button next to a mod to unsubscribe from it.


    Once you have unsubscribed from a mod, it will no longer appear in the Mod Manager.

    Installing mods that you have downloaded

    It's also possible to download mods from sources other than the Steam Workshop. In this case, you'll need to install the mod manually.

    To install a mod manually:

    1. Open the Steam application.

    2. Select Library.

    3. In the list of games on the left-hand side of the window, right-click on XCOM 2, then select Properties.

    4. Select the Local Files tab.

    5. Select Browse Local Files….

    6. The “XCOM 2” folder will open. Navigate to XCOM2Data/xcomgame/mods. If the “mods” folder does not already exist, you should create it yourself.

    7. Copy the folder of the mod you want to install into the “mods” folder.

    8. From the “XCOM 2” folder, navigate to XCOM2Data/xcomgame/config.

    9. Open the defaultmodoptions.ini file in a text editor.

    10. Add a line to the bottom of the file that says:
      ActiveMods='[MOD NAME]'
      …where [MOD NAME] is the name of the mod file you are adding, excluding the file extension. For example, if the mod is called LW_SMGPack.XComMod, you would add the line ActiveMods='LW_SMGPack'

    11. Save the defaultmodoptions.ini file, then close it.


    The next time you launch the game, the mod will appear in the Mod Manager on the pre-game Options window.

    To uninstall a mod that you've installed manually, you must delete its folder from the “mods” folder. You should also remove the line from the defaultmodoptions.ini file. Once you have deleted a mod, it will no longer appear in the Mod Manager.

    Enabling and disabling mods

    Once you have installed a mod, either by subscribing to it in the Steam Workshop or by installing it manually, you must enable it using the Mod Manager before it will appear in the game.

    When you press all three keys at once, a single image of the on-screen contents will be saved in the Feral Interactive folder in your computer's ~/Pictures folder (the '~' symbol refers to your home directory).

    The JPEG image contains metadata in a string in the following format.

    For example in XCOM 2: War of the Chosen the string might look a little like this:

  15. Can I play this game on a case-sensitive file system?

    No. XCOM 2: War of the Chosen has been tested with the basic formatting option for Mac OS X, which is HFS+. This system is not case-sensitive and identifies files by name without checking capitalization.

    The capitalization of filenames is not consistent throughout the game. While this will not always prevent the game from running on case-sensitive file systems, it may lead to crashes and other unpredictable behaviour.

    If you have to run a case-sensitive setup and you experience problems with XCOM 2: War of the Chosen, please install the game on a standard formatted partition or read/write disk image. In most cases this will allow you to play the game on your machine.

    There are several factors which have an impact on the speed at which XCOM 2: War of the Chosen runs. Please see the XCOM 2: War of the Chosen Performance Tips section in the ReadMe for ways to increase the speed at which the game runs on your computer.
