Well, I go to the folder where the compressed mods are stored, and they are all in a long series of numbers. Opening one of these folders I find two things, one being the civ5mods and the other is always labeled data.vdf. I can expand the civ5mods using your instructions, but the data.vdf when opened is literally just a title for the mod. The mod folders in their original form as I said before all coded by a series of numbers, such as 1119411831371094896. I cannot do anything with these folders, as they cause errors to occur when trying to expand. Is this normal, or have I done the right thing with removing the civ5mod directly out of the folder?
Here is the contents of a data.vdf file
""
{
"filename" "end of dark ages (v 3).civ5mod"
"appID" "16830"
"creator" "76561198006766898"
}
