Is it possible to publish mods made by UME?

First off. I know UME is broken. Im just wondering if the mod i made with it still can be published on steam workshop. Please help me i dont know how to use the API to make mods.

Yes, you can publish them, they work like normal mods

Thank you. Though do i publish the .ume or do i have to use something to convert it to a different file type?
Sorry about asking this after my original question

iirc, you use UME to export the mod as a rar file, then unpack the folder inside the rar file to somewhere and upload that

Ok thanks! Everyone who replied is a life saver i wouldve wasted hours searching how to publish it.

How do i export as .rar? I find a build expansion mod package but that gives a .zip
i tried the folder in the zip file it said that mod source folder not found

Seems UME exports as ZIP then, I thought it exported as rar.
And for the source folder not found, did you extract the folder from the ZIP file.

I figured it out i had to convert the zip to rar then do as you said thanks again! My 2 mods are now on steam.

Nice one, although even though you’ve already uploaded them, I’d recommend using the standard API to make your mods, it easier than a lot of people think :wink:

The wiki will tell you everything you need to know.

I was told that it still required some basic programming knowledge which i dont have so thats why i ended up using UME

Like I said, the Wiki will tell you everything you need to know, you don’t need any programming knowledge, hey, I’d even help if you sent me a DM.

Alright ill look at it also noob question whats a DM…?

Thanks thanks but He answered by sending me one thanks anyway though!
