About

Irony Mod Manager is a new advanced mod manager for Paradox Games, it started out as a Stellaris oriented mod manager at first with plans to add additional games later. Not all of the advanced Stellaris equivalent features might be available for most supported games but that might change depending on community support in these games. In order to have a fully operational conflict solver Irony needs to understand the game structure and whether certain game folders utilize FIOS\LIOS rules.

Linux & Mac Install Instructions:

Linux

Extract the .zip file somewhere that you'd like to have Irony installed. Navigate to the folder where you extracted Irony and run the chmod +x IronyModManager command. That will allow you to execute the app. Finally you can run the app using the ./IronyModManager command.

Mac

Extract the .zip file to a location you want Irony installed to. Open Terminal.app and cd to the directory you installed to. Run chmod +x IronyModManager. That will allow you to execute the app. Then you can either start the app in Terminal.app with the command ./IronyModManger (the ./ are important!) or double-click the file in Finder.
