You will be jumping between these two folders often, as you will need to follow their folder structure directly.Ĥ.

You should have a res and res_mods folder. Navigate to your World_of_Warships folder (default is C:/Games). Depending on how the file was set, it may or may not have the proper file paths (for the record, most of the skins do NOT have the proper filepath, whether it’s Tanz’s or the anime ones).ģ. Use a program like Winrar or 7zip to unzip the file (if you don’t have either, download one of them and review how to use them), preferably into the same folder. Download the file to a folder you know the location of (default on Windows would usually be User/Downloads). We’re assuming use of Windows as the OS, and the ship in question is an IJN cruiser.ġ. Let’s take a typical example that of a KanColle skin or one of Tanz’s skins, for a single ship. If you’ve downloaded a mod (or made one of your own), use these steps to figure out where to put the modded files and have them work, without replacing the original (and risk losing files or breaking something somewhere). Like in World of Tanks, World of Warships features a mod folder for you to place modded game files without needing to replace the actual game files. I’ve seen a few posts on making mods, but quite a few players still seem unaware of how to install them outside of using Aslain’s excellent mod installer.
