When I just click "Play" the stupid launcher of the game opens, I click play in the launcher and the game starts, but all the time Wemod is just stuck in "enabling mods", and finally reports "Cannot detect the game you're running. Shall we try again". Trying again doesn't work either. I tried:

  • running the game and then once I'm in the game switch on Wemod
  • using the workaround described here https://steamcommunity.com/app/552500/discussions/0/4811561152907324196/ to turn off the launcher so the game runs directly when started from steam (clicking start on WeMod still runs the launcher unfortunately)
  • running the game without the launcher and then once I'm in the game switch on Wemod
  • running WeMod as administrator
    All attempts ended in the same result. Clicking "Try again" just opens the stupid launcher again, despite the game already running.

If you’re experiencing issues with WeMod, your antivirus software might be interfering. To resolve this, try whitelisting or adding exceptions for the following folders:
- C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\WeMod

  • C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\WeMod

My virusscanner reliably lists things it blocks, and this is not the problem. After checking the forum it seems my problem was that I always tried to run the modded realm, which seemed obvious, as it seemed to be the one that isn't protected by EAC. After a few attempts and playing through the prologue without cheats it worked on the unmodded realm. I might be mistaken, but isn't that the part that also includes multiplayer?
