Mod versions

[Arheilgen]

Hello,

after hours of happy playing I want to try some mods for EU IV.

Imperium universalis sounds good and is popular.
But after loading I get a warning, that the version doesn't fit.

I don't even know which version of EU IV I am running (the most recent, I suppose, for automatic updating is on). How can I see when selecting a mod for download, if it will fit my version? Can I go back to a previous version which might fit?

Yes, right click to Europa Universalis IV in your steam library. Click "betas", then you will see beta participation on the right corner. You can choose old versions.

Thank you, that worked.

But not completely.

I can load the MOD, it will start showing a map where the religions are antiquitiy, but the country names are completely bogus.

And when starting a game I get "localization missing". What else do I need?

This sounds like a mod incompatibility or broken installation. Does it help if you disable all other mods? If not, you can try a clean reinstall as described in my guide on reddit about common startup problems with version 1.29

Well, it was my first mod in my only playset and all files were checked succesfully.

Seems I have to do a complete uninstall of EU IV and than start from scratch. Not this weekend

Sorry, I don't understand at all what you are referring to.
