How to Install Mods on a Cracked Version of Total War: Rome 2

If you have a cracked version of Total War: Rome 2 and want to install mods, you might encounter some difficulties. The official mod manager from Steam Workshop does not work with pirated copies of the game, and some mods require .pack files instead of .bin files. However, there is a way to overcome these obstacles and enjoy the game with mods. Here are the steps you need to follow:

1. Launch Rome 2 and go into Options and select the Mods box.
2. Enable the boxes for “run user script mods” and “run movie and release pack mods”.
3. Download Mitch’s “ModManagerV2.0.zip” from here. Do not use the latest 3.0 version since that one tries to launch the game from Steam[^1^].
4. Get the mods you desire from Total War forums, ModDB, Skymods, or any other source that does not require Steam Workshop. Make sure they are .pack files and not .bin files. If you find a mod that is only available as a .bin file or on Steam Workshop, you can request it on Skymods here and they will upload it as a .pack file[^2^].
5. Drop the .pack files into the Data folder of the game where all other .packs are.
6. Launch the Mod Manager and select the boxes to enable mods.

Now you should be able to play Total War: Rome 2 with mods on your cracked version. Enjoy!
