HI Noreplyz.

I've just joined Fandom today. Please bear with me if I am asking for something too obvious or too obscure.

I am an avid player of Civilization 6 and have the Gathering Storm expansion installed.

I have been downloading mod files to use them into the initial installation of the game. I am having problems about where to copy them to. This may seem like such an obvious enquiry because I can find the solution a lot on the web. So I will be very specific with my situation.

I have created separate folders for them and placed them into my mods folder which is :

C:\Users\User\Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization VI\Mods

These are the straight-forward cases and they are verified to be correctly installed by going into the game and checking them under 'Additional Contents'

However they are certain 'Mod' files which have contents that doesn't look like they should be placed there ( the Mods folder ). So reading through the 'Modding (Civ6)' page, under

' How to Install Mods'

'Method 2: Manually'

I read this :

'''3. Unpack the download .zip/.rar file into the Mods Folder. This should result with a single new folder appearing in the DLC Folder. '''

My questions :

1.

If I have unpacked them into my 'Mods' folder, how can they appear in my DLC folder ? That folder is located somewhere else, which is :

C:\Games\Sid Meiers Civilization VI Gathering Storm\DLC

2.

Some of the mod files seems to have sub-folders and files that looked like they should be placed into the location of the games original folder and subfolder tree structure.

Please help me to identify pecisely where these different kind of mod files should be copied to. I would appreciate your kind assistance if you could resolve this or direct it to those who can.

Thanks in anticipation.

PS. If this is resolved, I will help to edit the page with the updated information, if I am allowed to.

Thanks.
