thats the thing i just startet modding but i want it to put a custom model with animations as the default leaders of the game

Good Day and Thank you,

I am currently building a mod 'collection' through the steam workshop for Civilization VI. I am very familiar with my approach of modifying games through (Skyrim & Total War) in-which I download mod categories and move-on to the next category in as complex way as possible. 9/10 I over due it and I have just way to many mods. But, most of the time there is a pattern I can follow. Example: Skyrim crashes on startup. Simplest solution while time consuming is to disable all mods and go one-by-one. This usually always works.

This method simply does not work for CIV VI. Sometimes it loads just fine through the boot-up and introduction videos. Sometimes it crashes on the main menu. Sometimes when starting to create a new game. Sometimes the game is created.

Now to me this all seems random, With all current mods active (this variable is a constant).

I have tried unsubscribing to the mods thought to crash the game...etc.... I am lost

My thought is it is a ram crash (currently have 64GB installed) not sure what my PC is configured at, I have not changed it, so it stock config for windows 11.

Hey guys! I'm trying to get into civ 6 modding, however I've already met my first hurdle and can't find anyone else posting about it.

When I launch the Development tools, everything seems fine. But when I then click on "ModBuddy", I get the following message: "Cannot find one or more components. Please reinstall the apllication."

I've reinstalled both the development kit and assets multiple times now, but none of it works.

Any ideas?

Hi Civ modding central! I am a very new modder with no experience other than a music pack I made that is too big to be uploaded to steam workshop. i.e, I haven't really gotten my hands dirty in code yet. I am currently trying to make a mod that buffs assyria because they are the first civ I played but as I've grown older I've learned that they suck :(. Right now, I'm thinking of making it so that if they capture a city from somebody and they've eclipsed them in tech, they get a small tech boost instead. However, I do not know how to change this. In game, assyria is given their UA through an xml variable called techfromcitycapture. I've tried finding where they define how this actually works, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. How does base civ 5 know what its XML means? How can I change it? Should I alter the XML somehow? Or do I need to recreate the ability in SQL/LUA? Any help would be appreciated as I don't really know where to go to find resources on this

So I'm trying to make a mod of the leaders of England pack in which Elizabeths leader ability is supposed to give you +2 gold to trade-routes with city-states for every great admiral you recruit after the first one.

I'm everything but an expert in this and while I do have some programming experience this is all very confusing nevertheless.

I have installed civ 6 Modbuddy and have created a project, I'm at the stage where i need to add a File;

How do I do this?

Which File/what type of File do I need to add?

How do I create that file?

And most importantly, what is supposed to be written in the file?

I have tried to look up tutorials etc. but there are seemingly none on Youtube and the countless Forums I checked or the civ wiki entries didn't help at all either. I'm not looking to learn the in depth mechanics of creating mods, I'm just looking to implement this concept
I know that I might be asking for a lot and that my questions are not very specific but nevertheless any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I tried out Vox Populi and really, really enjoyed some parts of it. But other parts I really did not like.

Is it possible to only apply the changes I enjoy?

Examples of things I loved:

• CBP (i.e. bug fixes and AI enhancement)

• Units/Combat overhaul

  • “skirmisher” type units
  • “explorer” type units
  • “settler” type units
  • unit & city attack-range changes
  • ships able to move onto forts/citadels

• Civ4 diplomacy options

• “War Score” system

Is it possible to only apply these changes, and leave everything else out? Thank you :)

When building a district on a wooded tile, you can place the district and automatically remove the woods (or whatever resource is there) but you don't get the yields from having harvested the resource. I'd like to make a leader who gets some sort of 'chop' bonus when the feature is removed by district/wonder placement.
Is there an event I can use as a trigger?

I've been scrolling through the Civ VI Modding Companion spreadsheet but I'm not sure if FeatureRemovedFromMap works insofar as I don't know how to check whether it was removed by placing a district/wonder or if it was just removed by a builder. I'm new to modding CIV6 so if there's a discord or similar that would be a better place to ask questions let me know.

Hi, I would like to know where or how to make my mods that add additional civilizations compatible with known mods like Historical Religions, Cultural Diversity or CivIV Trait, for example.

I doubt anyone is gonna answer at this hour but I am gonna post anyway. I need some help creating a custom civ. I have made the civ I want with the existing civilization abilities using civ6blitz.app. I now just want to change the civ name, leader name, civ description, unique ability name, mod description, and mod title. I am not trying to do any of the fancy stuff yet (making custom civ ability, custom unique unit, custom unit or building design, etc.)

I am using Notepad++ but I am not sure if it's the most user-friendly. I have tried modbuddy as well, but it was too difficult to follow paths and understand what I was doing. I have looked at every single custom civ tutorial on forums.civfanatics.com but I messed up multiple times when trying to follow. Thankfully I had backup files.

YouTube isn't much help either. I have followed these 3 tutorials but I was unsuccessful. I have absolutely zero modding experience but I feel like modding for civ 6 is a lot harder to get into than what it's supposed to be.

Any help is appreciated. If there are any tutorials on civfanatics that I missed please share them. Thanks

I’m making a new civ whose unique unit replaces the Great Scientist. It’s all working just fine, except for one problem: this UU cannot use the “Discover Tech” action like a Great Scientist can. The button is not present in the little column of action buttons on the left side of the screen.

It can build an academy just fine - I simply added an entry to the Unit_Builds xml table (or whatever it’s called). However I have no idea how to give it the “Discover Tech” action.

Note: this is primarily for Civ V with DLC
