Quo's Combined Tweaks - Depth Expansion

[Socra]

I decided to add a little more depth and theme to each Civilization's traits, expanding on each one's feel.

Although it all looks basic here, I put extra extra care into making sure the traits and text were presented in an aesthetically pleasing manner, in-game and menu.

This will be a simple optional addition to Quo's combined tweaks. The mod and traits work all 100% at the moment. I just need to figure out how to replace/update the original text files with mine, and it's ready to release.

Not everything is fully rounded and finished, but I feel good enough about it to finally drop a thread. Critic the balance and such, I'd appreciate all feedback. Who knows, maybe someone will want to play this.

[[to_xp]Gekko]

this looks pretty interesting, I'd love to try it out

 

[watsface]

I'm keen to try this too, wondering what the status is?

 

[Socra]

No worries, this is still under construction, and has grown/updated quite a bit. After a certain patch, the game was literally unplayable, insane turn times.. so I felt no motivation for modding. This bug was finally fixed with R&F so i'm back full swing, and planning to release this soon.

 

[watsface]

cool cool!

 

[Socra]

I have finally put out the Beta 1.0!
