Rumours say that alphabit will update UME very soon to support publishing and updating mods directly from the editor :wink:

Important note

If you encountered or still encounter a ā€œCould not load modā€ error, please (re-)subscribe the item that could not be loaded, restart GDT and then unsubscribe the item again.

This can happen if you had the previous beta installed and faced the mentioned problem.

Additional Note

When you update a mod and upload it to Steam Workshop, please give the system some time to process the submission. We cannot influence on how long the process can take. Generally it only takes a few secs, but sometimes it can take up to a couple of minutes.

Please keep that in mind when uploading / updating, testing, distributing and subscribing Steam Workshop mods.

As a good news to all current beta testers that had trouble updating and synchronizing items after a restart, this problem has been identified and fixed and will be available in the next update :slight_smile:

Thanks @kristof1104 :thumbsup:

didnt see this any where.

I had to delete my mods downloaded from here. to get steam workshop mods to activate.

Thank You all for making this great game even better!

EDIT: ok so started a new game. Noticed you cant mix any mods form this site, and the workshop.
I installed my usual mix of mods(expansion, tweak,cheat,competitors, couple new mods.) as there is no info stats mod on the work shop, i tried to use it form this site, the game didnt like it.

You have to ask access for the private beta. The workshop is not currently public.
PD: Sorry, as I see in this post Celebrating Game Dev Tycoon with Workshop support
Itā€™s now public, try restarting steam if you didnā€™t get the automatic update.

Wellā€¦ it is.

You donā€™t need private beta for accessing Steam Workshop features anymore. Weā€™ve gone public about 3 hours ago :slight_smile:

So, using the regular release is fine now.
