Legacy bonus "Civilization 6: Rise and Fall"?

[Bate1999]

Does anyone know how to reactivate the legacy bonus, like are there files where I can change something or can someone make a mod that adds legacy bonus to Civilization 6: Rise and Fall?

Can anyone please help with this? I am willing to pay for the help.

Hi there. This actually wouldn't be too hard to implement, I think. I took a look at the Governments.xml file from the base game and the Expansion1_Governments.xml file from the expansion data, and really the only thing you would need to change to do this are the entries in the <GovernmentModifiers> and maybe <Modifiers> and <ModifierArguments> tables. All of the effects for the governments, in both the base game and expansion, are handled just through these tables. You would, of course, change the entries in the <Governments> tables to use the old text strings (or your own), so that the text in-game reflects the actual effects. The only thing that you might have difficulty with is the old percentage number in the governments UI, that your government used to have, and that used to show the maximum percentage you could get from legacy bonuses when choosing governments. For that, you'd likely have to change some of the base game .lua files, probably just the one, though, and you could probably copy/paste code from the old lua file to the new one, so it would definitely be possible.

Thanks for the info; I will try to look into this in the coming days. Also, are you saying that I should just be able to copy lines from the Governments.xml in the base game and like paste them over what is in the Expansion1_Governments.xml file? When I do look at it I plan to experiment with copying and pasting things but just from looking at everything briefly it looks like it will be a lot of trial and error. Unless you have a better idea on exactly what has to be changed/pasted over?

I mean, yeah you could probably copy/paste into the game's xml files, but it's not recommended that you do. You should do it via ModBuddy, it's real easy to make a small mod like that up and running (I say, having a bunch of experience with it). I probably would know at least what xml stuff to change, but I've even forgotten what I wrote a couple days ago. If you're new to modding, try doing smaller tweaks to figure out how modding works in civ 6, and the modifiers system in particular.

I have never used “ModBuddy” I guess I will have to try and lean how to use it myself (and at this point I would happily pay for DLC from Firaxis Games that made this change).

In Steam (assuming you bought it through Steam), hover over the Library category, and click on the 'Tools' entry in the drop down menu. Install Sid Meier's Civilization VI Development Tools, and maybe also the assets. (Be warned that the assets are as large as the game itself). Once the tools are downloaded, open them up, and one of the options is Mod Buddy.

@Bate1999 Legacy bonues are in policy cards in R&F. They no longer are active all the time, you need to slot them just as any other policy card.
