Fix 1: Opt Out Of Steam BetaĪlthough it isn’t entirely clear why this method works, it’s one of the easiest and least time-consuming fixes on this list, which is why we suggest trying it first. Don’t worry there are quite a few confirmed working solutions available. The mod downloads blank files, which are unusable.ĭifferent users have reported different experiences with this strange Steam Workshop problem.The mod appears as successfully downloaded and is visible in the launcher, but the actual mod file folder will be empty.The mod begins downloading when you initiate it but stops at a random percentage afterward and eventually fails.You click download, but the mod doesn’t even start downloading.When you encounter this problem, you might notice one or more of the following things: This makes it even more confusing to deal with, especially for less experienced users. A shame, particularly considering how much success SimCity 4 had with mods.Based on our research and previous experience with the Steam Workshop failing to download mods, we concluded that this problem could manifest in a few different ways. Even aside from the Steam aspect, many major publishers have traditionally been a little wary of heavily associating themselves with mods because of potential legal issues, so it’s possible that the Workshop will largely be populated with a plethora of independent games. It’s true that all three of those are EA products, but it’s a dangerous sign that some of the titles most likely to get a boost from user-generated content are highly unlikely to use this new, user-friendly service. The new SimCity, which is reportedly likely to gain mod support sometime after launch, is unlikely to support Steam Workshop simply because, as an ea game, it’s unlikely to turn up on Steam. The same goes for The Sims 3, which is still going strong. Dragon Age: Origins has a sizeable modding community, despite the game’s lack of direct support for mods, but – age notwithstanding – I’d be surprised if it ever turned up on there. Second: this is a problem, because there are publishers out there which would doubtless rather focus on their own digital distribution platforms than give you a reason to shop on Steam.
