Thank god for this tutorial, I have like 60 mods and with windows 11 not showing the file thumbnails I got hella frustrated. Thanks, I could easily find it with the ID.
genius. thank you so much, been trying to find out which mods took up 71GB of space, you saved me a massive headache. also good video. no nonesense, just straight to the point.
Thanks a bunch ! Helped me a lot. Steam recently blocked all workshop direct downloads. I have the in a specific folder cos I rename and modify them often. Now I know how to get the latest version while keeping my personal folder structure. Excellent tutorial of something not complicated but not so easy to explain.
Thank you for this guide, my black ops 3 was showing 155!! Gbs of workshop maps and I forgot to unsubscribe from the maps I used to have and was losing storage from nothing. I deleted all of them
This is great! Thank you. I have gotten more interested in modding by starting with CKIII save file editing, and I'd like to try my hand at first modding a mod, them trying one from scratch.
man i love you cuz of that tip now i manage do turn these files into a game that i still havent got DLCs for a game and i can fianly enjoyy thanks meeen
i accidentally unsibscribed from like 50 workshop files and i found the IDs but do i really need to go through all these individually and resubscribe to them? or is there a easier way
how do i make it so boii client gets them directly for black ops 3 i cant get any help on this the newer videos are trash and not wat i want it should be able to go to my bo3 right away please help
This is a good totorial but im having an issue trying to find L4D2. I put the numbers that I think are L4D2 and SteamDB says its an unknown app. None of the workshop items in the folder come up on steam either.
So im having issues finding. I dont own the game through steam but subbed to the files. Theres no folders there with that game title just 4 folders of different games.
@@Stratega_Digitalis yeah I unsubbed from all the mods, found the game id folder in the addons folder, opened it, and saw that there were 700 megabytes of left over stuff so I deleted the whole workshop folder for the game.
Depends ..tut was written from the P.O.V that mods hadn't been removed when unsubbing and were taking space.Unsubbing doesn't always delete. so you might be alright. otherwise to replace them you try and remember what you subbed to on the workshop...Remember this is workaround because the way workshop handles files is kinda pants when things go wonky . ▼ Exploding Ribcage
it's almost comedic how none of any of this matches with the files on my pc or steam, sure there are plenty of similar names randomly spread throughout a dozen different folders each claiming to be THE "app" or "program" folder with a random mix of numbers and letters before each one giving away that they're just a random folder containing a percentage of the overall content such a folder is normally supposed to contain, but they're all either suspiciously empty or completely unrelated or with tiny pieces of the information I'm looking for. I mean I guess it has been 2 years, and with the way things are online, everyone eventually gets an INTENSE f*tish for overcomplication, and with nobody wanting to create a new working tutorial for something that already has an old not working tutorial covering it I really shouldn't have expected anything from this. the closest I got to the right folder was through a filepath around 27 folders long which ended with the names of the games from steam, though the folders were entirely empty. there was also something that looked similar with the game IDs but none of them were for the IDs of the games I have and they had some weird filetype that I apparently don't have the app needed to open. well anyways I guess I should've known better, this is why I try to avoid paying for games from steam, it's always easier to get pirated versions of things to work, pirates are just more civilized than companies. take p*rnhub for example, if you have slow internet and their add fails to load for 30 seconds then it skips the add, now compare that to youtube, where if you have bad internet then it loads ads in 1080p until completion even if it takes an hour, and if you don't finish the add in 5 minutes it adds another one to the pile you gotta get through to get to the video, not to mention the skip button doesn't bother loading if your internet is too crappy, and exiting the video and finding another will just bring back up the same pile of ads which are conveniently saved for you so you can never get out of watching them. my current record is 27 ad stacks at once before the video plays, already watched ads don't count when waiting for them to pile up. anyways that's why I use adblocker for youtube regardless of internet quality or any kind of situation.
What About Games You dont Own That you wanna Download mods for?? Like for example I bought a game on GoG and at the time steam didnt have it ... and the only way i can get mods for it is thru steam SOOO HOW?> HOW How do i do this PLease help me cause i isearched EVERYWHERE
@@Stratega_Digitalis Nexus doesnt have the all the mods /Maps Steam does I bought Command and comquer Remastered and I would like some of those mods/maps But if u could link me a adress ill check out Mod db
Thank you for this helpful tutorial. I was wondering, if I were to want to install mods from other sites into games that only have a Steam Workshop Mod folder, can I simply paste the mods' files in there, or do I need to find a number for Steam to recognize it?
@@Stratega_Digitalis Thank you for the quick response. Funny you should mention that, I'm looking for a method to install Non-Steam mods on Total War: Warhammer 3
@@morbidiusgrandestofthegran91 take a look at the medieval kingdoms /ancient empires guides i did ....all the post empire stuff could just have files dumped into the data folder .
This helped so much but at the end when you’re finding that workshop mods ID why not just go to that mods page on steam and find it’s specific ID in the URL from the start instead of pasting random IDs until you find the right one
To find folder for specific mod: go to workshop page > copy url > paste the numbers in a non shit file browser (I use Everything). You'll see the folder there, no need to worry about the path because every workshop item has a unique ID. This really ought to be a feature in steam, or someone should make a browser extension for it.
