No more faffing around with precise install locations, lengthy command lines, separate shortcuts for each mod, or esoteric errors (which, admittedly, are four things that don’t crop up all that often any more, even when trying to mod games that don’t inherently support them). Once that’s done, all you need to do is select it and it’s good to go. The next time you launch Civ V and click on the in-game Mods tab, Vanilla Enhanced will automatically download and install. When you find something you want to install – the Vanilla Enhanced Mod for Civilization V, say – then you just click the Subscribe button next to it, aaaand… that’s about it. If you have a game on Steam that supports the Workshop, then all you need to do is highlight the game in your Steam library, click “Browse Workshop”, and hunt through the list of mods (assisted by an able search function, user ratings, and – if you’re into the sort of thing – user comments.) Steam Workshop is, in essence, a very simple way of installing, updating and activating mods for your Steam games and it’s one of the most ludicrously simple ways of doing so that I’ve ever seen. Fundamentally, there’s nothing wrong with it – in fact, it works so well that I’m damned if I can think of a single technical flaw with it. To celebrate the launch of the Steam Workshop we’re also offering 75% off Saints Row IV on Steam all this week and next.I haven’t quite decided what to make of the Steam Workshop. See a mod you like? Hit the “Subscribe” button to install. Head over to the Saints Row IV community hub in your Steam client, click the Workshop tab, and start browsing.
This was all built for the fans who have shown an incredible amount of passion and creativity over the years, and we can’t wait to see what kind of crazy content they come up with! It was all a labour of love for developer Deep Silver Volition who worked directly with the modding community to develop the modding tools and adapt the game code. There were many challenges in implementing Steam Workshop functionality since the game was not originally designed to support modding. It’s never been easier to create and install mods that add new weapons, clothing and change the way you play. The Saints Row series is all about the freedom to play how you want, and we’re now taking that one step further today with the launch of Steam Workshop support for Saints Row IV on PC.
