A handful of dedicated Volition devs worked on this in their free time to update the engine and remove memory restrictions, as well as finding a way for individual mods to interact and work correctly with each other without the need for running special tools. There were many challenges in implementing Steam Workshop support since the game was not originally designed to support modding. The news post from Volition’s IDOLNINJA mentions Similarly, following the trend of other Steam Workshop games, the added support will also allow the option to run custom scripts and tweak various gameplay values for an even bigger over the top Saints Row experience. The Saints Row 4 Steam Workshop will allow players to create, share and install mods to change some of the craziest weapons and clothes into even more crazy creations. The files will now appear in your selected saints row folder and in the backup folder.

ADDING MOD PART 2: Give your mod a name by typing it in under the label Mod Name then click add.

Given the Saints Row franchise is an open world crazy sandbox experience, developers felt that giving players the freedom to play however they want would be a great gift and for that they have enabled Saints Row 4 Steam Workshop to the Windows version of the game and are working towards a Linux version as well. ADDING MOD PART 1: Simply Select the the mod you want to installed by selecting the Browse Files button and select your mods for example (mod1.xml, mod2.xml). More than 3 years after release, developer Volition still continues to support their game and this time their latest update is in the form of Saints Row 4 Steam Workshop.
