This is the main menu for Civilization V. You click mods.
Now this is the End User License Agreement for mods. You have to agree to this every time.
Now, this is the main mod menu.
You click on "get mods" and this will open Steam Workshop where you can download
any mod you want
We'll click "Ethnic Units" to start
and just hit subscribe
and you get this message
saying that it has been added.
Return to the game
and wait for a moment while it catches up.
It is now downloading the mod.
Most mods are very quick. This is a somewhat large mod
so it will take some for it to do the transfer
and it has several steps after this, but usually this process takes a few seconds
this mod will take a little longer.
Right now it is installing the mod.
This is the final step of the installation.
The mod is now installed and will be available in the list of mods as soon
as it finishes this screen.
Now I'm going to update some existing mods. Simply click the update button
and wait.
There's a little delay between
sending that command to subscribe or update and the actual update.
Now it's beginning the download for both of these
and as you see
the Canadian mod was almost instant. This one takes a little longer.
Now I'm going to activate a few mods.
Africa map...
...and i already have the Ireland mod activated
and I'm going to activate Rohan, The Lord of the Rings Civ pack.
Click "next" to activate the mods.
There's a slight pause while loads the mods into memory.
These are the mods that are active
and this is all you would get back to the main menu, through the back button.
We're going to look at this screen. This is telling you this mod is
unavailable because it requires DLC or an expansion pack.
If you see that red text, you can't use the mod.
Now this is the single-player screen. We're going to set up a game,
and this just shows you
that Rohan has been activated.
Now, King Theoden and The Rohan are available as a civilization in the game.
Those are the unique features of the civilization.
We're going to look at the maps next. Africa is listed
and Ireland will be listed below.
Click back if you want to go back to the main menu.
And you would "Start Game" if you actually wanted to start.
Now I'm disabling the mods.
This is how you remove a mod.
This one is not compatible with my version of the game, so I'm removing it.
When you do this, there's a delay, so you see I will
still see it listed so I can even go back and unsubscribe again. It just takes it a
second to catch up and now it's going to disappear
and that is all there is to
installing mods and removing mods using Steam Workshop
