Anyhow, I don't know much about this mod tools or how they work, however, I did discover that the most important part of the file directory installed by the "swbattlefrontiimodtools.exe" is the Microsoft Word documents within the "documentation" folder. Workshop's intent is to use the Steam interface for mod management, not in game.Hey yall, Valameir here. This is something Workshop can't really do. The Mod.IO website UI is secondary to its real purpose, which is an API to provide direct mod management in game. In this way a game can use Mod.IO to support mod management for ALL versions of a game, but also fill the vanity needs of Steam modders.Įdit: it should be noted that Mod.IO is not intended to replace Workshop.

Mod.io is owned by the same company that owns and operates ModDB, IndieDB, and they used to own and operate Desura (an old digital distribution platform like Steam). If this is true, than Mod.io can not be trusted with your information. Looking forward to seeing all the mods you make,įound this on The Steam version of this thread.
