If this scenario is applicable, you can verify if the mods are actually downloading by switching to Big Picture Mode.

To change the loading order, activate the Show loading order checkbox below the table 2. Click the icon to go to the Workshop page, where you can subscribe to the missing mod or see the mod troubleshooting section for further information.
