The 2nd link is just about mods being screwed up in the steam beta client I mean you might want to click through wehn you do a blind google search? The first link is the only one that even vaguely says it might be the case Something that would immediately barf if the mods weren't available in offline mode Eventually another modder (Keallu) came along and posted a newer mod that included the functionality of mabako's mod into his creation called Hide it! but rather than deleting mabako's old mod from the workshop because other people might still be using it, I still keep it on there.Note I have a dozen mods installed, and they all work fine in steam's offline mode. I'm no modder that's why I've kept his file and code as is. He did explain why he pulled it out though, but seeing as I needed the mod as well as a few other users I decided to upload my saved copy onto the workshop with mabako's concent of course.
But that can be an adventure in and of itself.ĭefinitely works for mods as well as this was how(why) I ended up still having a copy of a modder's mod (mabako's hide district policy icons mod) with me when he decided to pull out his mod from the workshop. Any good mod will have source code that you can recompile to use proper folders. It just depends on what mod authors hard code into their mods. I don't really use mods, but I did this at release time with mods from simtropolis (manual install only). Mods can have issues if the mod uses specific folders. You have tried(tested) this for mods and it works? I know it works for assets just fine for I do this to back up missing assets. You may have to remove the files from appdata when you return online? Id you leave them offline, then you'll need to manually update them again on the next patch or game expansion/fix days.Ĭ:\Users\Mark\AppData\Local\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylines\AddonsĪppdata is hidden, so you need to click on the VIEW tab of file explorer and select show hidden files/items.Īppdata is hidden, so you need to click on the VIEW tab of file explorer and select show hidden files/items.
Option 2 is copy/link your workshop folder to your appdata folder (local folder) and it will work fine, with a few exceptions, that mod authors can easily fix. It's quite obvious Steam is leaving it the way it is. Steam did it intentionally, probably to save bandwidth? But it's been broken so long that CO should have fixed it like everyone else. All other Unity games have moved mods to local folders so they can play offline.
