Factorio mods

[BlakkCooper]

Hello,

I have no longer access to my original Factorio account (blakkcooper) and therefore cannot download any mods. I do however have Factorio in my Steam library. How can I download mods and why do I have to log into the Factorio website with an account that is marked as owner of the game to download mods?

Thank you in advance.

Thank you to whomever restored my account but I still cannot log into the Factorio website (only the forum).

You can download mods from all non official websites without need to log in, but if you want to download within the game itself or use the official mod portal you will need to show that you actually have an account by logging in.
If you can proof you purchased the game you can contact the support per email and have your access restored.

Thank you.
