Trivia: Some low level mods (like music or graphic) use also a wildmark for the second number (expanded support), which the launcher accepts (but throws an accusation entry in the error.log). This has no effect on mod loading and the code, supported_version is merely a visual indicator.

Launcher will recognise mod as up to date even when minor Stellaris patch is released. Tip: You can use masks ( wildmarks) in the version string for descriptor files. Unlike the first one, this one does not contain local path to the root mod folder. Second descriptor inside of root (main) tutmod folder. Note how the only difference between two descriptor files is the path line. Path="C:/Users/OldEnt/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/mod/tutmod"

%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris\mod\ tutmod\descriptor.mod.

%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris\mod\ tutmod.mod.

Properly created mod has the following file structure on start: Tip: You can paste %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris\mod\ directly into the file explorer address bar without specifying user name. When a mod is downloaded for a mod store this descriptor file is copied from the mod root folder to the Stellaris mod folder and a local path is added.

Paradox Launcher uses second descriptor when it imports a mod from mod store (Paradox Mods, Steam Workshop).

Root mod folder descriptor must be named descriptor.mod,.

If Paradox Launcher was not used to create a mod one must create root mod folder manually.

Second mod descriptor contains just metadata and is stored in root (main) mod folder, which in the example would be %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris\ mod\ tutmod\.

mod is a Stellaris folder for local mods (as opposed to Steam Workshop mods), Other Stellaris folders are logs, save games, screenshots etc.

%USERPROFILE% is your system user profile folder (by default this point to the same location as C:\Users\%USERNAME%),.

It must be placed in %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris\ mod\

First mod descriptor contains metadata and local path where the game (Paradox Launcher) should look for the mod.

Every mod requires two descriptor files, each one in proper directory. It is highly recommended to store description text file and thumbnail in mod root folder.Ībove effect can be achieved without using Paradox Launcher. Note: Description and Thumbnail inputs in this window are not stored locally and can be lost.

Contents of Description window will be visible on the mod store page after upload. This is where first mod uploads and updates are uploaded. Newly created mod is displayed in the window upon selection in the drop-down list.

Use the images below as a guide to creating a new mod with the Launcher, or skip down to the Manual section for instructions on creating the files yourself. You can get started creating a blank mod using either the Launcher to generate the starting files and directory, or doing so manually.
