Installing mods for Macs? Help?

[oakdragon]

If anybody can help me find where to install mods in the Mac version, I'd be grateful. I can't find a mods folder anywhere this time, even inside the Civ VI application "package".

DOH!

Just found it myself. It's in user/Library/Application Support/Sid Meier's Civilization VI/Mods this time.

Where are the xml files? I'd like to have a look and see what can be changed while we wait for updates. I've looked everywhere (except the correct folder apparently).

Scattered throughout here, I think, but I've never done any modding before, so I'm not sure those are the xml files you mean.

(BTW, anyone know a way to copy a filepath to the clipboard as text?)

hum ... try ctrl-clic on an application : show package content ( a very basic on mac ) ... do not forget to make copies of the files you want ( and shouldn't yet ) modify

start here for some xml modifications : http://forums.civfanatics.com/forums/civ6-mod-components.560/

interesting things already.

I think if you highlight the file or folder and select Copy, then paste into a text page, or text field, it should paste the path as text.

Not on my Mac at the moment, but that works for me if I want to copy/paste a path into Xcode.

[Technical stuff]
When you copy something, the clipboard gets copies of all valid representations of the object. For a file system object, that will be the path as text, and an alias for the object. When you then paste it, the destination gets the most appropriate representation. In the case of a text field, that would normally be the text path.

[EDIT]
Sorry. Just got back to my Mac. That doesn't seem to work as described. You only get the file/folder name, not the full path. Drag and drop works from Finder to Xcode - or to Terminal - to provide a full path, but it doesn't work to other text destinations.
