Publishing mod (Workshop) - Venom Fox - 09-03-2016

My mod is ready and I'd like to publish it. I know how to upload it to Moddb but steam workshop is a whole different story, I have no idea how to do it! Does anyone know how to do it?

There is an application in the main Soma directory called WorkshopModUploader.exe that's used to upload mods to the steam workshop.

When I first launch the uploader and have to find the mod folder, I just have to select the
entry.hpc and it should go just fine?

If your entry.hpc file is correctly configured, then that should be all you need to do at that step.

entry.hpc
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Content
    Author="YourNameHere"
    InitCfg="config/main_init.cfg"
    Type="StandAlone"
    Title="Your Mod Title Here"
    Description="The description for your mod that will appear on the Steam Workshop page."
    LauncherPic="ImagePreviewFile.png"
/>
  • Author - Your name
  • InitCfg - The local path to your main config file (should just be config/main_init.cfg unless you changed it)
  • Type - Either "StandAlone" or "AddOn", depending on what type of mod you are making
  • Title - The title of your mod
  • Description - The description of your mod
  • LauncherPic - The image that will appear in the Mod Launcher when your mod is selected
