New Frontier Mod Template Request: Civ+Leader+Building+Unit

[IFH]

I've been trying to learn modding, but haven't been successful. I haven't even gotten an existing template to load correctly with images. I've tried the ModBuddy new civ template, Keniisu's gathering storm template, copying raen's posts from here...

Would someone post an XML template for Civ 6 New Frontier that includes a new civ, leader, building and unit? One that builds and works without changes?

Much thanks.

Hi, the new frontier update did not change the major structure of modding, you still use gathering storm template. You haven't been successful in which extend? you cant load images? Did you see logs?

I saw the OP yesterday but hesitated to provide the template I have put together as was not sure about the latest DLC - as I do not own it. Good to know that GS still applies.

I have a couple of tiny kinks to iron out, related to art asset cooking, after which I will happily share it. I should probably also explicitly contact the modder from whom I have pinched some code for my 'example', too, before I share. I give him credit, but think it's only fair.

IFH: you'll be pleased to know the template to which I'm referring loads with no issues and includes a custom Civilization, Leader, Unique Infrastructure and Unique Unit (i.e. all the bits you'd expect to see).

Thanks for the fast replies!

raen: When I load the mods, they don't show up as a leader, or have other unexpected behavior (don't have the reused Civ 6 images expected, don't have the Civ 6 icon of the unit they are replacing/extending, cities with missing names, etc.). I'm not attempting to change the templates - just verify they work as-is. I do have logs, and found these errors, but I'm not sure what to do about them. I've attached my attempt to implement the mod you describe in Civ 6 Modding Tools & Basics.

maconnolly: I eagerly await!

You using my tutorial like a template, but it's more like a step by step process. Also, I noticed you are trying to built it in modbuddy, which needs modart.xml and other configs (my tut is about files you copy to directly to Mods folder).

Even though, I made that code you sent an enabled mod (fixing id and compatibility in modinfo) but has no leader icons (and no leader configs in dep file) and does not show up. Nevertheless, I think I miss a section in my tut for leaders, and maybe that way I can make a template out of it.

Thanks for the reply. Will you be making a template?

I make no promises, eventually will do someday.
