Mods missing in Content Manager

Article verified: March 2022 - TM:PE 11.6.5.1

Symptom

In Content Manger > Mods:

• there are no mods listed, or
• a recently subscribed mod isn't listed

This guide is also applicable to the Content Manager > Assets screen too if it suffers same problem.

Cause

This bug is not caused by TM:PE.

It is likely a temporary workshop error or problem with another mod.

Solution

Try each of these in turn; if it starts working you can stop.

• Completely log out of your Steam client account, then log back in again.
  • Exit Cities: Skylines (exit to desktop)
  • In Steam client, click your profile link (top right corer of window)
  • Log out
  • Then exit Steam client, and relaunch it
  • Log in
• You need Steam to be in online mode for mods to work; they disappear in offline mode
  • Lots of mods, particularly the more advanced ones, need to be run online because it's how they detect other mods for compatibility purposes
• Make sure you aren't using the --noWorkshop or --disableMods launch parameters
  • If you are, remove them, then relaunch the game
• In Steam Workshop, make sure you are * NOT * subscribed to these two mods:
  • Improved Assets Panel - unsubscribe!
  • Improved Mods Panel - unsubscribe!
  • Or any other versions of those mods
• In Content Manager > Mods, press F5 to refresh the page.
• Exit the game and reload:
  • Depending on Steam settings (or server issues), subscribed items might not download while the game is running
  • Disabling mods such as Less Steam, Skip Intro or NoIntro might also help in rare cases
• Change Download Region
• Refresh Steam Files then Verify Game Cache
• Did you move the game to a different disk drive?
  • See: How to move the game to a different disk drive
• Make sure there are no files in the folder ...\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylines\Addons\ColorCorrections
  • Broken LUTs can cause content manager to fail

Fixed?

If problems persist, probably best to ask the internet.
