Don't worry, man. I don't hate you... I hate myself.... and Paradox. 10/10, my only issue is that now, for some reason, I'm seeing "duplicates" of the mods, and all of them except "Better Barbershop" don't appear to be activating.
For copy and paste games, Paradox does a decent job 🤣 I'm not sure why it would duplicate, check your mod-loader.json with notepad, and you can manually remove the duplicated mods. Maybe this is your OneDrive, it could be duplicating, try unsyncing documents if it is syncing. Better Barbershop is a mod that is only compatible with certain mods also, it's a tough one to get working alongside a lot of other mods.
@@this-nerd Thanks, I found the issue. Unlike Stellaris, CK3 was apparently reading the .zip files where I store older versions of the mods. Moving them to another folder fixed it, and the files its reading are the right ones.

Have you tried installing the NET framework and C++ redistributables? They should be in the root folder of your CK3 install. Also what are your computer specs? A lot of people report the same issue on older computers.
I'm assuming the mod I'm trying to play (Guardians of Azeroth 2) doesn't work with a cracked version of this game. I've done everything...Manually downloaded the mod, changed the launcher settings from steam to pdx, extracted and stacked the files into one folder with the descriptor.mod file beside it inside the mod folder, changed the path and renamed everything the same. Everything looks good from the launcher view, but the mod never actually runs when the game starts. Is there a way to just run the game with the mod w/o using the launcher...Like adding the mod to the folder I have the cracked version extracted in to make it run from just launching .exe?
Unfortunately there is no way to run mods without the launcher. I've tried everything. Have you updated the cracked game? That mod is built for the latest game.

I have a different problem with ck3, when I download a mod in the workshop, it doesn't appear in "installed mods" do you know how to solve this problem?
It sounds like the OneDrive error to me. Try taking manifest.json from %appadata%/paradox/ck3 folder and putting it in the root folder of CK3. Let me know if that doesn' work and we can try something else.
I have this problem but with the xbox game pass version of all paradox games. Each time it tells me there's a problem with the launchr after 30 seconds and closes. Do you have a solution for this to?
Try installing the updated version of the paradox launcher v2 from the Paradox website. For some reason the Gamepass version comes with an older version.
the mods don't work for me. i tried installing them on both steam paradox and nexus. none of them worked. the game just keeps launching vanilla. i have already selected the mods into the playtest, and i remebered to select the right playtest before launching the game, but it still didnt work. i tried to download the "change appearance mod" from lover's lab that makes it so you can paste DNA into character's easily and that worked. i didn't do anything differently. do you have a solution? would be greatly appreciated :)
Did you watch my other video? ruclips.net/video/BlPGVJwZMk4/видео.htmlsi=3Dkt_vGs6T3IFeL5 You might have to edit the descriptor.mod file and add the path line 😁
You can open the .json file with notepad and see if there is a broken character or string. Also check your appdata in the ck3 folder, make sure your launcher-settings file isnt there, if it is copy and paste it to your ck3 root. Also, did you install the launcher through the launcher folder in the ck3 root folder?
Quick question, how do you delete playlists you no longer want. I can see how you remove the files from a Playlist, but I have no idea how you actually delete the Playlist completely.
for some reason, even after i changed my json file the launcher still wont open. I changed it to pdx for the Distplatform but even after trying to run it multiple times the launcher just wont launch.
I have a problem with the Xbox game pass version, where I try to start the game and it takes me to a white screen then says launcher not responding. How do I fix?😭😭
There are lots of problems with Gamepass. You'll have to check the language of the mod, make sure everything is set to English. Check mod-loader.json with Notepad and see if your mods are loading. Check OneDrive, make sure documents is not syncing. Let me know if those don't work and we will keep troubleshooting 🙂
downloaded a 1.10.2 version, i did replaced the "steam" to "pdx", but the problem is that after i open the launcher the dlc's have red warning sign and says "we were unable to verify the ownership of this dlc"
Glad you got it! That's a know issue with some cracks. If any of the DLC's stop working you can find the separate DLC packs on CS Rin. I'd link it on here, but you know... 🤣
Hey, quick question, it says "Unable to verify ownership of this DLC" on every single one of my "legitemately" acquired DLCs in the launcher after doing this, is there a fix? (The DLCs are enabled in launcher but aren't in the game.)
Bro, did all the steps above. Placed AGOT mod in /mod directory (added the path line too), still it isnt showing up on the dowser launcher. Not able to activate it :/ Any help?
AGOT is a tough one! We've been trying to figure it out on my Discord. The method that worked for me is update to 1.8.2, I have the file to do that in my Discord also, the link is in the description. If you're there already you need to copy the agot.mod file to the mod directory, so the documents/paradox interactive/crusader kings 3/mod folder. Then if it still does not work add a path file to the .mod file. Open it with notepad and add path="mod/AGOT" if that doesn't work let me know! 😁
@@this-nerd huge thanks for the reply buddy! But did all the steps (updated to 1.8.2, did the mod file thing, dowser, turned off antivirus etc), no avail :/
@@adithyanandakumar3884 Is it showing up in the playset list? Did you add a playset? Do you want to join my Discord? I can message a lot quicker there 😁😁
i did this but when i opened launcer/dowser it says launcher-settings.json file contains invalid json which cannot be parsed i reinstaled the game deleted everything but same error.
There is a parsing error, which means there is a coding error on a line in the file. Do you have a Discord? I can upload a working file to my Discord channel under #useful_files, the link is in the description. You can also update the game to the latest version on cs.rin.ru and the launcher will be cracked. I have the update files in my Discord also in the same #useful_files channel.
I’ve tried every way and once I deleted all of the documents and uninstalled it but it doesn’t work I really want to play Agot again but my computer and game doesn’t want to cooperate
I'm having an issue, so I did what you did and add the mods to the launcher but there not working there all green lit, and I'm using the right playlist but once in game it doesn't work tried both zip installing and adding from PDX mods, but both don't work somehow I got some zip mods to work on different playlist but some mods I download don't work (cheat menu daddy pika) for me doesn't work when I zip download it into the file it doesn't show up in game but vampires and Lathrop works even tho I did everything the same, so I'm lost on a fix any ideas ?
Try using the method I use in this video, it will fix the path error for most mods. ruclips.net/video/BlPGVJwZMk4/видео.html If you still need help let me know and we'll will figure it out 😁
You should have a launcher downloader, the launcher file is called dowser.exe. If you got it from fitgirl it will come with the launcher installer in a file.
Hi thanks for the video, mine is stuck when create a playset of mod, it says' please verify the launcher is have acces to your document folder' dou have any solution?

@@sadok6066 you need to name the path the same as it appears in your file explorer. So whatever the mod folder name is in documents/paradox/ck3/mod should be the path.

Hey man, i keep trying but nothing work. Nothing happens when i click on dowser, the launcher just doesn't start. I have modified the settings but nothing. At this point any idea is more than welcome 😅
Heyy man, do you know how to change the version of the ck3 in paradox? I don´t have it on steam, and the AGOT mod that i´ve installed its not compatible with the 1.9.0.2 (lance). Or maybe the mod have a version of itself that works with the 1.9.0.2 (Lance) verison of the game, but i just can't find it.
I just read your whole comment. I don't think you can go back versions with Paradox anymore. There used to be a way in the launcher, but it is gone now.

would this work with any paradox games such as imperator rome as example? because even though i manually added the mod file into the game files, the mod still wont appear in the launcher.
I'm almost positive it will. Most Paradox games are relatively the same. Try using my video here ruclips.net/video/BlPGVJwZMk4/видео.html this one I know worked with Hearts of Iron 4 as well as CK3. It will create a file path allowing the mod to appear in the launcher.

You can download the FitGirl version and it has the cracked launcher. I have the updates on my Discord, if you use an update it will also update the launcher.
idk my game keeps crashing. i have both a legit copy no dlcs and a cracked copy, same with hoi4. when i play hoi4, i play with mods on steam, but i run the cracked copy, and the mods transfer. when i play ck3, i have it through xbox game pass, and when i play the legit version, the agot mod works no issue, but crashes during loading on the cracked version. is there a way to fix this?
If you have cracked CK3 try reinstalling. Mods break the files. Xbox is a little different, first make sure the mods are not on OneDrive. You can turn sync off in OneDrive settings for documents. You can also use the Paradox Plaza mods site to install the mods and activate them in the launcher.
mano, estou com esse problema no launcher, mas o meu CK III é do game pass, ja tentei diversas formas mas nada resolve --- (Bro, I have this problem with the launcher, but my CK III is from Game Pass "XBOX"', I've tried different ways but nothing solves it)

If you downloaded the crack from some random repacker the cracked launcher isn't included. FitGirl will include the cracked launcher, which will give you the required files.

Hi! You are not the only one having issues with the AGOT mod! In my Discord we have been trying to come up with a solution for AGOT. The method that worked for me is make sure the AGOT.mod file is out of the AGOT folder and put it in Documents/Paradox Interactive/CK3/mod. The AGOT mod folder should be in that location as well.

@@George_consol_log it's on my Discord which is in the description and on my channel banner. It's under the channel #useful_files. It's just a straight torrent with v1.8.2. 😁
You have to add the mod to documents/paradox/ck3/mods. The descriptor.mod file needs to be taken out of the downloaded folder and put in the mods folder also. Add the line to the descriptor.mod file with notepad path="mods/[your mod name]" Make a playset and you are all set 😁
If you're on a cracked version I suggest getting it from FitGirl, during the install select download Paradox launcher. There are two repackers that include the cracked launcher and FitGirl is one of them.

Its missing the mesh, or not loading the mesh. Do you have all the DLC active and is the game on the right version for the mod?
for some reason, even after i changed my json file the launcher still wont open. I changed it to pdx for the Distplatform but even after trying to run it multiple times the launcher just wont launch.
Do you have the launcher installed from the included file? If you are using FitGirl she includes that launcher.
Thanks bro if only all tutorials were like yours
No problem! They all could be! What other games do you need? I'll make a tutorial for it. 😂
@@this-nerd i have subbed and followed you're content , you are the best for now bro im just sticking to ck3 but thanks for the thought 💪💪💪
I have a problem with the Xbox game pass version, where I try to start the game and it takes me to a white screen then says launcher not responding. How do I fix?😭😭
There are lots of problems with Gamepass. You'll have to check the language of the mod, make sure everything is set to English. Check mod-loader.json with Notepad and see if your mods are loading. Check OneDrive, make sure documents is not syncing. Let me know if those don't work and we will keep troubleshooting 🙂
downloaded a 1.10.2 version, i did replaced the "steam" to "pdx", but the problem is that after i open the launcher the dlc's have red warning sign and says "we were unable to verify the ownership of this dlc"
nvm, it still enabled when i play the game. tnx
Glad you got it! That's a know issue with some cracks. If any of the DLC's stop working you can find the separate DLC packs on CS Rin. I'd link it on here, but you know... 🤣
Nice video, very helpful and easy
Thank you! I try to not add any annoying fluff to videos so it's straight to the point 🙂
Hey, quick question, it says "Unable to verify ownership of this DLC" on every single one of my "legitemately" acquired DLCs in the launcher after doing this, is there a fix? (The DLCs are enabled in launcher but aren't in the game.)
If you try deactivating all dlc then load an existing save, let it fail, then close, activate all DLC again. It should work.
@@this-nerd what do you mean by let it fail?
@@dragonknightah2678 if you created a save game with DLC active, then deactivate DLC, the save game won't be able to load and will fail.
Bro how about the DLCs? eveytime it shows a red triangle which says " we were unable to ownership of this DLC" ??
You need to find a cracked version with the dlc included. In my Discord I have the links to all of them with DLC included.
Bro, did all the steps above. Placed AGOT mod in /mod directory (added the path line too), still it isnt showing up on the dowser launcher. Not able to activate it :/ Any help?
AGOT is a tough one! We've been trying to figure it out on my Discord. The method that worked for me is update to 1.8.2, I have the file to do that in my Discord also, the link is in the description. If you're there already you need to copy the agot.mod file to the mod directory, so the documents/paradox interactive/crusader kings 3/mod folder. Then if it still does not work add a path file to the .mod file. Open it with notepad and add path="mod/AGOT" if that doesn't work let me know! 😁
@@this-nerd huge thanks for the reply buddy! But did all the steps (updated to 1.8.2, did the mod file thing, dowser, turned off antivirus etc), no avail :/

I play game from xbox so I cannot dowland the valyrian steal mod is there anything I can do?
So i tried this in hoi 4 and it's all good except when i open the mods in launcher there are no mods showing up even though they are in the mod folder
You need to edit the .mod file that comes with the mod in notepad. Add a line that says path="mods/[your mod file name]"
i did this but when i opened launcer/dowser it says
launcher-settings.json file contains invalid json which cannot be parsed
i reinstaled the game deleted everything but same error.
There is a parsing error, which means there is a coding error on a line in the file. Do you have a Discord? I can upload a working file to my Discord channel under #useful_files, the link is in the description. You can also update the game to the latest version on cs.rin.ru and the launcher will be cracked. I have the update files in my Discord also in the same #useful_files channel.
I’ve tried every way and once I deleted all of the documents and uninstalled it but it doesn’t work
I really want to play Agot again but my computer and game doesn’t want to cooperate

i use a steam mods website for the zip files fyi
Try using the method I use in this video, it will fix the path error for most mods. ruclips.net/video/BlPGVJwZMk4/видео.html If you still need help let me know and we'll will figure it out 😁
IT says to me: Installation of this mod failed.
The action failed because we encountered an internal error. Try Again or restart the launcher
That's a new one! 🤣 What mod are you using? Is it the right version? Are you using the dowser.exe rather than the paradox launcher v2?
what do i do when my ck3 doesn't have the file "launcher" in it's file?
You should have a launcher downloader, the launcher file is called dowser.exe. If you got it from fitgirl it will come with the launcher installer in a file.
Hi thanks for the video, mine is stuck when create a playset of mod, it says' please verify the launcher is have acces to your document folder' dou have any solution?

@@sadok6066 you need to name the path the same as it appears in your file explorer. So whatever the mod folder name is in documents/paradox/ck3/mod should be the path. You can rename your Realms in Exile folder to "example" and put in path="mod/example" and it will still work. I hope that makes sense.

Heyy man, do you know how to change the version of the ck3 in paradox? I don´t have it on steam, and the AGOT mod that i´ve installed its not compatible with the 1.9.0.2 (lance). Or maybe the mod have a version of itself that works with the 1.9.0.2 (Lance) verison of the game, but i just can't find it.
You cannot do it in the launcher. If you have the Steam version you can right click the game and roll back versions. Gamepass cannot roll back either.
I just read your whole comment. I don't think you can go back versions with Paradox anymore. There used to be a way in the launcher, but it is gone now.
I do this then my game loads up but it is still base game no mod loaded and " i checked the playlist i launched"

I'm almost positive it will. Most Paradox games are relatively the same. Try using my video here ruclips.net/video/BlPGVJwZMk4/видео.html this one I know worked with Hearts of Iron 4 as well as CK3. It will create a file path allowing the mod to appear in the launcher.

idk my game keeps crashing. i have both a legit copy no dlcs and a cracked copy, same with hoi4.
when i play hoi4, i play with mods on steam, but i run the cracked copy, and the mods transfer.
when i play ck3, i have it through xbox game pass, and when i play the legit version, the agot mod works no issue, but crashes during loading on the cracked version. is there a way to fix this?
If you have cracked CK3 try reinstalling. Mods break the files. Xbox is a little different, first make sure the mods are not on OneDrive. You can turn sync off in OneDrive settings for documents. You can also use the Paradox Plaza mods site to install the mods and activate them in the launcher.
