   * Using the Mod Launcher app: there'​s a special Mod Launcher program that will scan subscribed content in SteamWorkshop (where applies) and the local "​redist\mods"​ directory. To make your mod entry appear in the launcher'​s list, it must be located in its own directory under the "​redist\mods"​ directory. For example, a mod for SOMA in a directory called "​my_mod"​ would need to have the path "​full_path_to_the_SOMA_redist_dir\mods\my_mod"​   * Using the Mod Launcher app: there'​s a special Mod Launcher program that will scan subscribed content in SteamWorkshop (where applies) and the local "​redist\mods"​ directory.

   * Using the command line: to run a mod directly, you only need to run the game executable passing the "​-mod"​ option followed by the full path to the mod's "​entry.hpc"​ file as arguments. Using this method, the mod can be placed anywhere as long as the path to the "​entry.hpc"​ file passed is correct. For the previous example, given the full path for the mod "​my_mod"​ is "​C:​\my_mod\",​ the command line for running it should read like this:   * Using the command line: to run a mod directly, you only need to run the game executable passing the "​-mod"​ option followed by the full path to the mod's "​entry.hpc"​ file as arguments.
