Game modding is a popular trend in the gaming industry, which can not only add new mechanics to your favorite game, but also improve the gaming experience.
But how to do it with a cloud service? We'll try to answer all the questions in this article.
The most important criterion for the work of mods / addons on the service - the user agreement from game developer/publisher. If the developer does not mind modding the game, he usually provides the game community all the necessary tools to do it. The easiest way to find out if there is an opportunity to modify the game (if the publisher is ok with it) is Steam WorkShop.
On our service it is possible to set any modification from Steam WorkShop, the way to do this:
Let's take Cities Skylines as an example.
- Start the general Steam card and login (if you didn't do it before) with your Steam account.
- Find the game you want in your library (Cities Skylines in our case) and open the Steam wizard.
- Subscribe to the mods you are interested in.
- Wait for the mods to be installed.
- After installing the necessary modifications, you will be able to successfully run the game with modifications.
Common problems and questions about mods and addons.
- Mods will be downloaded every game session.
Our service saves only the "vanilla" version of the game, which means that any change in the game distributive is valid only within your (one) game session. - If the game is not in Steam WorkShop, can I modify the game?
Yes. You can modify any game on the Virtual Computer card.
For more information about the Virtual Computer card, see THIS article. - Mods\addons are already on the service, example: Allods (any other MMO game, which is available in a separate card). But this game does not have the mods I need, can I use others?
Please send us your list of mods and we will consider adding them to the service. In your request, please specify:
1.Game name
2.Name of addons\mods and links to forum\site where you can read their description and download.
We do not guarantee that your mods will be 100% added to the service. Because each modification will be discussed with game developers.
