TL;DR:
- Make a new bookmark
- Copy the contents of the snippet below into location field for a new bookmark.
- Call bookmark whatever you want, I went with
AoE2 DE Mod DL
.
- Make sure you are signed into the website (https://ageofempires.com/mods), if you aren't, the API will just reject your request.
- It's completely free and doesn't care if you own the game on that account.
- Navigate to mod of your choice and click the bookmark.
- Wait for a bit, the API tends to be slow...
- You should get a download popup for mod's archive.
- Extract archive into something like
C:\Users\YOUR USERNAME\Games\Age of Empires 2 DE\SOME NUMBERS\mods\local
- For example I want x256 techs mod (mod id: 832), I would extract contents of the newly downloaded
aoe_832.zip
into folderC:\Users\alyti\Games\Age of Empires 2 DE\1212112121212121212\mods\local\aoe_832
.

Hello, I'm not sure if this is still being maintained but I'll go ahead and report that it's not working for me.
I'm on latest Mozilla browser and I disabled all my plugins in case they're interfering, this is what I get on the web console when I click this bookmark:

Thanks in advance.
