I have bought games outside of Steam, for example Fable 3 , but I want to install some mods for it from the Steam Workshop. I would prefer to use Steam Workshop to install mods, as I don't trust my abilities to install them manually. Plus it's a lot easier to manage from the Steam Workshop. Obviously Steam isn't picking up the copy of Fable 3 from the 'Non-steam-game' shortcut. How do I tell Steam that I own a copy of Fable 3?
Do I need to enter the game's product key into Steam to enable it installing the mods for me? Steam doesn't know anything about the folder structure of non-Steam games, so Steam doesn't know how to install mods for them. Even though Steam sells the same game, it will never recognise that a non-Steam game you add is the same game. Sign up to join this community.

Or is this not possible? Super Moderator. Jun 29, You don't, is the short answer! The Steam Workshop is a benefit for Steam customers, they don't give free access there to others.

Unless specifically stated otherwise, mods are created by fans in a game's community for their fellow players. Developers are not typically involved with mods or their creation, other than allowing their games to support them. If you're not clear about a mod in any way, check the Community Hub for more information and help. Mods can have comments, reviews, and ratings like other content on Steam. If your content is intended for a game's Workshop, follow the directions from the game's developers to learn how to upload that content, as each game may have a slightly method for doing so.
A mod is a player-created modification of a game or software. The mod itself can range in scope and size from a minor edit to an individual item in a game such as a different graphic for a sword to new characters, levels, maps, missions, or even completely new games built off of the base game. Mods destributed via the Steam Store are typically full conversion mods or modifications that expand the storyline of their base game.
Browse the Steam Workshop and find over games and software titles that offer various forms of player-created content, ranging from in-game items to community-made mods. Home Discussions Workshop Market Broadcasts.
