2. Making it work

Now that you have Atlas Novum cloned, make sure it is in the correct location in your mod folder like this:

Windows:
C://Users/USER/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Europa Universalis IV/mod/Atlas-Novum/
GNU/Linux:
/home/$USER/.local/share/Paradox Interactive/Europa Universalis IV/mod/Atlas-Novum/
MacOS:
/Users/USER/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Europa Universalis IV/mod/Atlas-Novum/

If you use the PDX Launcher, move or copy the !AtlasNovum.mod file from the MANUAL-GIT-INSTALL folder to the /mod/ folder, so that it is outside the Atlas-Novum folder.

Rename it, so that it has the same name as the folder containing the mod.

Example:
Contents of (…)/Europa Universalis IV/mod/:

• Atlas-Novum (folder)
• Atlas-Novum.mod

Now you can load up EU4 and the mod should show up under the name of Atlas Novum: Manual Install.

If you use the Irony Mod Manager, Atlas Novum would show up 3 times.
You can identify the correct mod by checking the trophy icon, the correct mod will have the broken trophy icon.
Alternatively, to get rid of the other, not working entries, you can delete everything in the folder /Atlas-Novum/ except for the subfolder /AN_Core/. The other files are mostly developer-related.
This will eliminate the other descriptor files, which are being picked up by IMM.
