Enlightenment Era is now fully compatible with Vox Populi. Techs are streamlined, Units and Buildings re-balanced and integrated with VP. The mod also includes RER. Enjoy!
The mod was initially created by Xony. I've continued the work to (hopefully) a successful finish. Special thanks to: zwei833, Pouakai, pandasnail, phantomaxl1207, barrizqi, sukritact, JanBoruta, Chrisy15, Enginseer, Padre19, Aldebaran1997, Gazebo.
I have decided to rework entire EE/RER/VP-EE set and create a single, VP-specific mod. The first version is available here. Please note that you only need to enable this single mod, it will block original EE and RER anyway.
Current version: 1.2 (posted 2018-11-26)

Enlightenment Era is quite a big mod and Vox Populi is incredibely complex. I have reviewed and adjusted to VP standards and logic all EE objects (techs, policies, units, buildings, wonders, etc.) BUT there certainly are still some glitches. If you find one - please post it here or on Steam.
