Mods will not download

[Fireflycat]

So basically the download system broke. Reinstalled steam and that did not solve the problem, all it did was delete all my games. Changed to the ebta version and it still did not work. The only thing that seems to be working is opening the game up then installing mods, at least only then you can see the mod. After you clsoe the game and relaunch its mysteriously gone.
I know where they are being downloaded to, its some weird and bizarre steam folder that never gets installed into the ck2 one.

If you're talking about Workshop mods, then you need to have Steam Cloud Sync enabled for CK2 (also applies to any other game that makes use of the Workshop). Otherwise it'll just subscribe to the mod and do nothing.
