Steam Workshop mods not working

Hi! I wanted to install some mods for TEIN, so I went to the Steam Workshop, subscribed to one of them, downloaded it, and launched the game. However, I can't find the content of the mod where it is supposed to be. I checked the settings, but the didn't seem to be any options to apply mods in-game or anything like that.

Am I missing something? Do you know why this happens? If you now, please tell me.

Thanks in advance.

Question about Super Mega Cart 1000 Rings

So I'm going for the Platinum trophy and "100% all cartridges" is killing me... I fully completed the game, all other carts and all other objectives (even got all unbreakables on all carts except infinite lives carts and Super Mega Cart).

But for some reason, 1000 rings is killing me. I got SMC no continues in a couple days, but I'm stuck on 1000 rings for a week already and never made any progress whatsoever...

Any tips on how you practiced for it? Or how to keep going? I know I could do it, but I wanna know how to "train" more efficiently for this last trophy...

Thanks! :)

(Spoilers) Plot Theory

The game is an incredible representation of the human condition when we learn that we're about to die.
Ash had the opportunity to choose between doing nothing and doing something.

He made the bold decision to find a friend, despite knowing there was no point and the world was doomed.

He was overjoyed when he finally made a friend. He had found his last goal in life, and he let him go with ease. He had accomplished one last goal, and it was a truly magnificent experience!

We're all going to die at some point. And it's likely that our lives will be more eventful than Ash's.
In essence, he chose life! He knew he was going to die, but he chose to live. And we, too, must choose to live and try!

If TEIN was to receive a sequel, what classical pieces would be arranged in the soundtrack?

Just a bit of fun. I think Dance of the Knights and Mozart's Lacrimosa would be great.

Just finished Nevermore

When I saw everybody saying how hard Nevermore was I was excited, but now that I'm done it I'm disappointed. Its definitely the map I died on the least, I got less than 10 game overs and I only had like 25 tumors. Now I have to finish all the carts and then I'll be 100% done.

Guy dude

In the secret area leading to the fallen fantasy cart (SS Exodus) there's a guy in one of the rooms, I'm pretty sure its impossible to get to him, but if you can then tell me what he says.

I bought it during a steam sale a while ago and oh my god, i do not see myself completing every achievement like in smb. I'm already struggling on the Rubble Bobble cartridge and it's so frustrating 💀

Endings?

I'm trying to get all of the endings, but I haven't seen anyone give a straight answer on how many there are. Please help me.

Isn’t Ash gay?

I remember Edmund said it once in a Q&A but I can’t find it so I’m looking for confirmation

A few questions

  1. Is it normal to have 2 extra keys at the end?

  2. I saw in some complete save files that there are 3 stamps on the top, a ghost in the upper left and two cartridges in the upper right.

I think those are for completing all cartridges and doing all cartridge challenges, is that right? And the ghost? For all deathless cartridges?

  1. I saw in some deathless 100% runs that ash is followed by a tons of flies (for collecting tumors I think). Do they reset when you die? Is that why I never had that many at once?

Thank you in advance for the help! I love the game!

Does turning of the crt filters in the game files disable steam achievements?

Just wondering because I want to 100% the game and if disabling the crt filters doesn’t mess with anything then I’d want to do it.

Spike room in Anguish

So I was exploring Anguish in order to find the Isaac Easter egg when I suddenly came across this strange room above Anguish 15. I haven't explored the entire room yet since I can't seem to get to the final platform, but it doesn't seem like there's anything in here
