Mods - New to game (Help)

[droidbot25]

Hi Everyone: I like to say new player here and just bought Stellaris. I like help on the mods you can get on Paradox launcher to Steam web site. What I like to know is, if you downloaded the game on Paradox how do you download the steam mods and how do install them without using Steam? I saw great deal of Stellaris steam mods that look interesting but how do download them and install please help?

when you subscribe to a mod on the workshop it should put a file in C:\Users\(username)\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris\mod . try copying this mod folder over to the C:\Users\(username)\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris plaza folder. the files that need to be moved are named ugc then a string of numbers

Pretty sure that mods from the Steam workshop won't download unless you have the game installed via Steam. I don't think there's an easy way to get mods from Steam for use with the Paradox Launcher version. There's a smaller selection of mods here for use with the launcher. Moddb and nexusmods have some and there are probably some other sites as well. But if you want mods from the Steam workshop it's probably easier just to install Steam.

Indeed, to use mods from the Steam Workshop you must subscribe to them in Steam. The mods listed in the Paradox Client are curated by the Stellaris dev team.

It is possible their authors may choose to make them available in other ways for manual installation, you'd need to contact the individual authors on that.
