Updateing Mods

Post by ozarkhippy »

If I install a Mod, and later there is an update for it, When I install the updated mod, do I have to start a new game?

Thanks

Maps you have to sometimes. Usually with other mods you don't have to.

Are you renaming the file or overwriting the existing?

You should just be overwriting the existing file.

It depends on the changes to the mod. It can happen for all mods. just some 'bad luck' for the users.
I assume people don't use Seasons, unless they say otherwise.
