What factors are taken into account when I determine if a site is "safe" and "legit"? Help mod makers by only downloading from original links!

If you don't, they stop making mods and we don't want that, right? Last edited by Vinolik ; 14 Feb, pm. Showing 1 - 15 of 83 comments. Buckshot View Profile View Posts. Can this thread be pinned for easy access? Driver View Profile View Posts.

Quick question, is the dog actually ingame? I see yet another plug for yesmods. I thought you said you were NOT affiliated? It's an ad revenue only site that doesn't host or make any mods at all.

This is probably an idiotic question, but are there any potential security risks to downloading mods on Steam?

One of the great things touted about PC gaming is the ability to use mods.. But ever since building one, I've been to uncomfortable with the idea of accidentally downloading something bad alongside the mod. Is this fear justified or irrational? Thank you. Showing 1 - 15 of 18 comments.

I would be amazed if you got a virus from anything steam related. Varainger View Profile View Posts.

Probably safer then surfing the internet and experiencing evil scripts on some websites. Skullever View Profile View Posts. You're more likely to get something bad through your e-mail than through Steam Workshop. Though in this case a letter from a Nigerian prince at least has a slight chance of being real. Thank you all for your kind and reassuring replies.
