o.k under the rome folder i have 3 things i can do: open rome and play it, paradox community, and uninstall rome. where the heck is the mod folder?

not in the start menu, in the hard drive. Press my computer, then press your hard drive and follow the path that I wrote in my past post
 
i put it under mod in the rome folder

ok, then I am going too put forward the things that might have gone wrong, because that should be about right. when downloaded it should be one folder and one file and the launcher is the thing that appears when you press the shortcut to play Rome.

If none of these helps then I have too say I am out of ideas
 
well when i downloaded it, it was in the downloads folder. And i know what the launcher is so that is out. i will try an earlier patch and see if it works. Also may it be because i have vae victus 2.2 patch installed on my computer?

that would not make it invisible in the launcher
 
I didn't test it yet with 2.2. I would say it's compatible as for now all I do is add countries and change the map and stuff, but I can't be sure. I'll try it to check if it works or not.

Anyway, it should be visible in the launcher. Make sure the downloaded files (that is, the folder named Magna Terra and the .mod file with the same name) are inside the "mod" folder, that is in the directory where the game was installed.
 
crap i feel so stupid!!! i found the problem. I need to download an extractor first:rofl:!!!!! ahhh!!! so anyone have any advice on what site i should download an extracter? Free extracter for rar. No viruses either lol

7-zip for example? Link
 
o.k this sucks, does anyone know why the Magna Terra download is not extracting into my mod folder:mad:? It wont do it. It starts and gets 37% of the way through and then It says:


7-zip: diagnostic messages:
# Message
0 can not open output file C:\Program Files(x86)Paradox Interactive\Europa Universalis-Rome\mod\Magna Terra.mod
 
I have the Steam version, can't add mods to that, right?

I think it's possible, but I don't know how. Try asking in the technical support help.

Maybe the downloaded file is corrupted? Wait, Magna Terra.mod is a file that is not to be opened, it doesn't need to be extracted. Like I said, the download file is a .rar. Try open it with 7-Zip like you would open a txt, then you'll see the folder and the .mod file inside it, copy them to the mod folder in the game directory.
 
o.k i opened the archive with 7-zip and right clicked and clicked copy to C:\Program Files (x86)\Paradox Interactive\Europa Universalis - Rome\mod\ to first copy the folder and 982 of those message type things came up like....
