Please Note: I have not uploaded this version to Steam yet. I will likely do so on Monday.

As always, mod updates have the potential to break previous saves, so don’t update until you are ready. Also, as the update makes changes to the config file, all settings will revert to the default and you will have to re-apply your preferred settings after you update.

Hey everyone! v.17 is more a maintenance update than anything else. I still don’t really have the time to add new religions to the mod at the moment. So, I focused on house cleaning, fixing some bugs, and adding some requested options to the config file.

- Joao added to the files (Catholicism)
- Slightly tweaked the colors of the preferred religions to separate them more on the game map
- Fixed some of the city bar size religion icons to appear more distinct (I still have a few more I need to correct in the future)
- Misc. copy-editing and text changes to the pedia files
- Corrected the Japanese and Chinese language text keys so the files now properly load
- Corrected issues with some of the other translations not adjusting for enabled denominations
- Added additional alternate religion preference options to the config file (primarily focused on modern civ equivalents which was frequently requested)
- Added a config file option to change the default name of several of the religions (mostly based on requests, will look into expanding this option in the future)
- Misc. bug fixes

Mod updates are usually incompatible with older saves. If you need a previous version to finish an older save, a download link for v.16 is included at the bottom of the Steam Workshop description.

I hope everyone is well and still enjoying the game and mod!

HR v 14

So, the reason why a simple preference update took so long was because I decided to be a masochist and re-code the entire mod.

As a result, the config file now lets you enable / disable (almost) every religion individually instead of in groups. This was always my original intention for the mod, but wasn’t possible as a result of initially having to code the mod piecemeal as I added religions throughout Civ VI’s releases.

However, I’ve also removed the ability to disable the core religions found in the base game. I hate to take out options, but this would continually cause issues with other mods that checked for those religions.

I’ve expanded the ‘Lite Mode Exceptions’ section of the config file. You can now essentially use Lite Mode with only the preferred denominations added.

Druidism added to the Lite Mode

Ambiorix now prefers Druidism (with option for Forn Sidr)

Basil prefers Eastern Orthodoxy (with option for Catholicism)

Added the Japanese name translation by hirami_lemontea (Thanks again!)

Ajivika can be enabled in the Unfinished Religion/Icon section of the config file

Since I re-coded the entire mod, it’s very possible I made a simple typo or mistake somewhere. Please let me know if you encounter any issues. Currently the mod will initially load in Lite Mode (enable Complete Mode in the configuration file) as I see how everyone uses the new file system.

Because of all the changes, I strongly recommend starting a new game with the new version. As always, I’ve provided a download link for the previous version at the bottom of the Steam Workshop description.

I hope everyone is well and enjoys the update!

v.12c

- Added a translation of the religion names in Italian (thanks to Diaz Ex Machina)
- Fixed an error message (which didn't impact the game in anyway but annoyed me )

Note: This update does not change anything in the actual game files so it should be fully compatible with your old saves as long as you remember to reset the configuration file to your previous settings. Regardless, I've also included a link to the previous version at the bottom of the steam workshop page.

Reminder

* I’ve temporarily removed the option to reduce Catholicism-Orthodoxy-Protestantism into “Christianity” from the config file. This will be re-added later once the load order changes are worked out.
* The religion pressure icons in strategic view are still not yet implemented for the mod religions. I haven’t had any luck figuring out how this is done, but I continue to look into it. It may not be possible at the moment.
