Current version 0.2
. I do not plan to enhance this mod manager now except for bug correction or new great ideas to
implement. Your issues/bug reports are welcome.
Works only for the steam version (using steam PROTON). It is only a simple file that I would like to keep as light and simple as possible.
Just download/clone the python file and place it on your computer wherever you want and then launch it.
python3 VMM.py
Now, just follow the steps explained in the upper half of the (ugly) interface.
- launch steam.
- add a launch option to the game (
PROTON_DUMP_DEBUG_COMMANDS=1 %command%
). - force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility :
Proton 4.11-13
. - in some cases, you might have to rename the executable
v2game.exe
tovictoria2.exe
. - launch victoria 2.
- one you are on the game main menu, quit the game.
- click on Save your data in the mod manager interface, this should detect all the mods you already have installed.
- you might need to swap executables of your game if you did not swap them in the past.
Select the mod you want in the mod list and click the button Launch selected mod.
Download the mod you want on your preferred website (list on wiki, Paradox forum, moddb, etc...).
Extract and place the files in the mod directory of your game (should look like something like
/.../SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Victoria 2/mod
).
- Make the interface less ugly.
- The logs do not work.
