Downloading mods is a common thing for people who consider themselves to be gamers. This process consists in connecting amateur extensions to the game, making the gameplay richer and more interesting.
Instructions
Step 1
Prefer trusted sites to download mods. Digital distribution services such as Steam are ideal places to download mods. By downloading the product from there, you can be one hundred percent sure that it does not contain a virus or "worm" and, moreover, it works stably and reliably. This is achieved due to the fact that any modification is either published by the developers themselves, or approved by them. However, it is not necessary for the site to be licensed: many game portals conduct moderation of the same thoroughness, but post exclusively amateur additions - an example is Stopgame.ru.
Step 2
Download modifications with the installer. On the Internet, you can find different variations of the same mod, and the most faithful will be the one that will require the least effort from you to install. As a rule, good and high-quality add-ons (and even more so the official DLC) are equipped with an installer program that requires the user to only specify the directory with the game. Such mods are made more carefully and with diligence, and most importantly, when installing them, you completely avoid the possibility of damaging the game files if installed incorrectly.
Step 3
Sometimes it is possible to download an addon directly from the game. There are two basic options to do this - download the DLC (plug-in add-on from the official site) and connect the modification from the hard drive. In the first case, the game will automatically (if the mod is not paid) will start downloading and installing and you will not have to do anything. When starting from the hard drive, on the contrary, you need to first download the modification, place it in the appropriate directory (it should be written in the installation instructions for the mod) and after starting the game in the "add-ons" menu, find the downloaded one and press the "run" button. This "convenient" setup exists in Fallout, The Elder Scrolls and Doom 3.
