Trying to get a mod to show in the Mod Selection screen

[Odysseus]

Hello there,

I'd like to apologise in advance for being too lazy to find my sign-in for my 0 A.D. account, but I was hoping to get some help on a problem I've been having.

I installed 0 A.D. on the following path -> G:\0 A.D. alpha and I'm trying to get a mod to show in the 0 A.D. mod selector. What folder should I manually put the mod in? Do I need to make a separate folder for it? I already have a 0 A.D. installion on my main drive with a potentially conflicting mod in there, hence it's on the G drive. Here's a screenie for what's currently there:

The mod is Hyrule Conquest: Revival. 

Kind regards,

Odysseus

Hi, I followed the path from this post:

• On Windows (Vista or newer): C:\Users\{name_of_user}\Documents\My Games\0ad\mods\
• On OSX: ~/Library/Application Support/0ad/mods/
• On Linux: ~/.local/share/0ad/mods/ (may be found in GUI via Home/.local/share/0ad/mods/)

Documents folder and keep going, place the mod inside mods folder

Thanks for your reply guys.

My G: drive doesn't have a Documents folder. Should I make it?

No.

(On Windows) The game either reads C:\Users\YourName\Documents\My Games\mods or 0adInstallLocation\binaries\data\mods. If you run the game with -writableRoot flag, then it only reads the later. Mods installed through modio are in the former, unless you're using the flag.
mods installed in 0adInstallLocation are only visible to that specific installation.
