Same here (and the same issue with Imperator, which means they did not fix it since Imerator's launch because I have reported it at that time)

Holy sh*t, this looks awful... like it's made for a touchscreen. hopefully we soon can switch back to a more pc-user friendly ui.
Mods are not sorted by alphabetical order anymore. This is an absolute downgrade.
Some mods are listed duplicate as local and steam mods, some don't.

- All mods are now continuosly "broken" and won't reinstall, no matter what I do (I followed your instructions)
- After closing the launcher, steam still thinks you are playing Eu4, theres nothing in my task manager (I need to restart steam every time)
- I now need to reinstall everything and let's see if it works then
Thanks paradox. Once again you just threw something new out there, that doesn't even work properly. Just because it's free for once, it doesn't mean you can just shit on it.

Understood, thank you very much for the help! Very helpful gentleman.

Wait, so we need to effectively have 2 versions of our mods? Pre-existing mod (for 1.28) and a new uploaded mod for 1.29?
And that one I have reported for Imperator around version 1.1 (in June)
I just wonder what is bug forum for? For fun and for players to vent?
I'd like to see the Mods part with subcategories (Sound, Graphics, etc) instead of just a bunch of mods thrown together.
Well the launcher does not work for me in Linux and I will never ever try to sort my mods through a JSON file or try to launch it through the executable directly. Tried it with my main x server, and creating a separate one in TTY2 with my Nvidia card enabled. Both of them did not work. Just shows the paradox spinning logo and closes immediately. And after closing, it still keeps some background processes. I would appreciate if you guys can at least add a failsafe to this mess so it closes itself completely on a crash. I am on Arch Linux btw.
Don't worry I am sure next year the new DLC will fix that issue for everyone who buys it. Going to be two of them, one for modders and one for people wanting to play with mods. Also won't work as well as it did before but that is par for the course at this point.
Can we revert to the old launcher and keep the stable functioning version of the game and the rest who want to edit every single mod they own to use it can keep the less stable non functioning new launcher .
Is this starting it through Steam? What happens if you launch dowser directly from a terminal?
I can't seem to even install the new launcher, and I don't want to spend the rest of my days launching the game through the /steamapps/common folder ... I get a "unable to install paradox launcher error 1603 " everytime, disabling firewalls and windows defender didn't work either
anyone having the same issue/resolved it ?

I actually just fixed it by manually launching the dowser.exe file as administrator in the eu4 files. Whew, was getting a hard time with this, hope it fixes your problem as well
So, I managed to get it working after trying it numerous times. The condition of it is still not stable enough. What I tried is, I deleted the "~/.paradoxlauncher", "~/.local/share/Paradox Interactive/Europa Universalis IV", "~/.local/share/Paradox Interactive/launcher-v2", and "~/.local/share/Paradox Interactive/launcherpath" directories every time I tried to launch the launcher so it can launch in a clean state. Sometimes it launched sometimes it didn't, but most of the time it launched when I ran the dowser directly without steam getting involved. And even then it can still fail sometimes. After launching it, sometimes the launcher also crashes as well, mostly when it tries to load the mods and dlc. That is probably because of the fact that I delete its files and it never really has time to cache it but it still shouldn't happen. Also, running eu4 directly works fine without any issue whatsoever.
Sorry about my angry rant earlier, I love this game, I have over 1k hours, and I want it to succeed. And I was kind of looking forward to play as Mongolia, it frustrated me a little.
My specs:
OS: Arch Linux x64
Kernel: 5.2.9
Desktop Environment: XFCE 4.14
CPU: i5-8250u
GPU: Intel UHD 620 and GeForce MX150
Detail on GPU: I have bumblebee and nvidia-xrun setup. So on my main x server I run with Intel Graphics (mesa). If I want to switch to nvidia I use nvidia-xrun in a different TTY to open a new x server with openbox window manager. I do not know if this matters at all for this situation. I tried my experiments on both scenarios and the results were pretty much the same for both of them.
Sorry for bad English as well
Thank you, though I tried C:\Users\Me\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Modding\MarsUniversalis and it also didn't work
EDIT: Now it does, but it crashes. *Sigh*
EDITEDIT: Looks like the replace_path syntax has changed, but I don't know what to.
