I'm trying to use some add-ons for Civ V from the workshop. I subscribed to some as described in this answer. When I start the game, nothing. I restarted Steam and then the game, nothing. I bet I'm suppose to use the "MODS" section, but the only one that appears is one I downloaded long ago, before workshop! Is there some special manipulation that can make it work? I'm on Windows 7.

I have found that some mods won't be delivered through Steam Workshop while others work fine. I have no idea why. In those cases I search for the mod using Google and download it, typically from CivFanatics.

Some mods require the game to restart. All mods in Civ V only appear in the Mod section and must be enabled by clicking the green circular check box in the mod list.

    Hi, welcome to Arqade. The asker to this question says he has already tried restarting, so it'd be nice if you could suggest an alternative.

  • In which case I would try David Harkness' suggestion of manual install. Look here to see if the files are there. "%userprofile%\Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\MODS" you can try searching for your mod. Most of them are available on fan sites like CivFanatics.
