 Disable mod auto-download Is there a way to do this?
No matter where I stick CC it always connects up to Steam and redownloads all the mods I have. Which is kinda annoying 'cause it overwrites all the changes I make to my own mods so I can't update them.
I tried deleting SteamAPI.dll on the off chance that worked but alas, the game can't run without it.

Re: Disable mod auto-download You can also run the game from the main .exe and not the Steam app shortcut.

Re: Disable mod auto-download 4zK wrote: You can also run the game from the main .exe and not the Steam app shortcut. That doesn't sidestep the fact that mod downloading is part of the launch sequence for the steam version. Unless launching it via the executable itself somehow bypasses this... Better off just not subscribing to your own mods in the first place.

Re: Disable mod auto-download Yeah don't subscribe to your own mods, that just makes no sense.

Re: Disable mod auto-download Huh. That's weird. I've never had any issues with it redownloading my own mods.

Re: Disable mod auto-download UPDATE: I just had this issue as well. This seems to be intentional somehow, as I saw the log specifically stating that it was checking for updates from self-published material.
This is, obviously, not good for modding. But I have no idea which end it's on, unfortunately - whether it's some weird workshop thing, or the client, or what. Quote: [06:58:52] weegee: Speaking of workshop mod overwhriting. Een if you're not subscribed on your own mod CC will try to redownload your own mod if your local copy is too old.
[07:00:07] weegee: I think sometimes it fails to determine which one is older due to Steam might return the wrong file time or steam server and system time mismatch badly.
