Addon doesn't appear in my in game Addon window

alsaud_ · April 2014

i downloaded ESO addon but when i enter the game and go to addon management i see nothing there , however i searched for a way to install the addon in the right way but still

here is my ESO Addon folder located in :

Computer > system (c:) > Program files (86x) > Elder scrolls online > the elder scrolls online EU > Addon

i guess maybe there is a problem in the folders

There is a problem in the folders, because you've installed the addon to the wrong place.

(edit:note that you want your liveeu folder, not just live)

Thank you very much seerah

So I need to put liveeu folder inside elder scrolls online eu folder ?

No, you need the file path that is listed in the "How To Install" FAQ that I linked.

Thanks very much, been trying to work this out myself.. So the addon folder goes int a totally separate directory and a totally separate drive to my game files. Genius.

I can't figure out how to make a new thread from my phone so i posted in here, sorry.

Oh guess my answer is in there too. Tbh i thought about trying that but wasn't to the trial and error part of looking for answers yet. Lol

Stabjoo · April 2014

Erm, im not sure what the rules are on spam but that link doesn't actually say what to do when there's ni live folder. Ugh i might have to start trial and error approach. Can't ask in game since I'm lvl 8 and all the other beta players already moved on ahead of me. $:\$

Dear developers...can we just get a section in the addon interface where we can manually direct the game to where our addon folder is? Many people, especially laptop users, have a small c: drive, so we have to add a second drive and move all of our user folders, like downloads, documents, etc to the d: drive so we don't run out of space on the c:/ drive. It would be great to just tell the game that is where it is located at so we stop having these issues. Having a place in the addons folder oin the character login screen would make things a lot easier for everyone. Then that can update whatever file you store that info on just like the other settings do. Thanks ;-)

It's pretty standard for the Windows OS. Application data generally goes under the Windows AppData directory somewhere, or under the Documents directory, there's nothing unusual about that.
