modding

Good day! I am new-ish in modding, and i have encountered a problem. Modbuddy says that your mod can "change it's behavior based on the settings of the game". I need to update database depending on what difficulty current game is being played. For example, if DifficultyType="DIFFICULTY_PRINCE"...

Hi! I've meaning to play with JFD's Belgium and everything seems to work fine, except the Unique Unit Leader, which doesn't have heads. I've already managed to make them appear, but the are all white and I can't seem to give them their correct ethnicity. The unit depends in a Unit.Artdef and...

So I made this mod for the wheel of time, and it's going to have multiple factions. I just made my first faction and I wanted to test my mod. So I moved it to Documents/MyGames/Civilization 5/MODS, and it showed up in the game, so I enabled it only to test it. It worked, showed the mod was...

Now I'm combining American Domination made by Envoy and The USA (Lincoln) made by JFD for personal purpose. I have a question about this work. First, I want to upload this on Steam Workshop, but I think it needs permission from JFD. Could I get permission from JFD? Unfortunately, I couldn't...

Hey everybody, I'm new to Civ 5 modding and have been having trouble creating an actual working mod. I'm not concerned with it being the most amazing project or anything. My goal is small and personal. Make a mod that I can enjoy in singleplayer and mess around with. Been working on this...

Not sure I'm posting in the right forum so apologies if not. I'm trying to make a modified version by editing the text files. I've altered things like tech tree, unit capabilities, terrain stats, etc. Usually when I make an error in the text file, the program crashes with a "failed to start"...

I am trying to fix an issue with Community Call to Power. After a certain number of spies (6~8) the game seems to be unable to handle them anymore, which causes the Espionage Overview to stop working and any save games afterward to corrupt. I've been wondering if there is a hard-coded limit to...

Hey, so I already know it's technically possible to set up music in Civ 6 for your new civilizations. But, wouldn't it be nice if there was a way to set it up much easier. This would be a lot of work for the developers, so I understand that it is already a bit unrealistic. That being said, I...

Okay so I bought Civ 6 and all dlc recentry on sale, to my dismay I didn't buy it through steam (don't like steams layout or servers) but woth that mistake I can't mod and I hear their are a lot of anime themed Civilizations mods (mods to add new Civs to play) now I want to appease the in error...

Hello. I'm a modding beginner and I want to enhance some underwhelmed Civilizations, and the first target is Khmer. I want to improve the UU, Domrey; giving two type combat abilities like Immortal of Persian, which can perform either melee attack or ranged attack. Domrey is a siege unit, in...

This might be kind of a stupid question, but I am having troubles finding something that seems pretty basic to me. Where the hell do we find/edit how much units cost in production? Can't find it anywhere! I want to make a unique unit cheap to build as one of its strengths. Thanks. EDIT...

Hello ! I'm trying to create a new civilization and I want to use custom icons, fallbacks and portraits for my empire ! So, I know that images used in Civilization VI are .DDS so I downloaded a plugin for Photoshop to open and save images as .DDS files but I don't know which to use : Do you...
