Really ? Then I will try to find a way to do this



Oh and I forgot to mention that I dont know if it's save compatible or not.



By the way, if you have any ideas, tell me (even colors)

I guess you could create a lot of quests for example, create a lot of new factions, custom traits, items etc...



The first thing we'll add concerning modding will be a folder called mods where you can put all your mods and we'll be able to select them from the ingame menu, and it will be both in SP and MP, and then you will be able to mod in a "proper" way



Yet you will not be able to change graphics (2d or 3d), nor GUI. These elements should be added later, if we can, as we encounter some issues with unity that we are trying to solve with them. Of course if you find ways to mod these elements today, we would love to know

I've already fallen in love with this game, but if you end up doing all that, I will love you forever. I was a huge fan of the Fall from Heaven 2 mod in Civ4, and more specifically the modmods Orbis and Rise from Erebus with probably 2000 hours in them total, and was really excited to read their discussions of plans for the new total conversion mods that they were going to make for Civ5. But then Firaxis never released what would be needed in order to alter graphics, I guess fearing people would just make mods of all their DLC and cut into their profits. Or something. It's been a few... years? since I last looked into it. The possibility of Total Conversion mods, or even just new factions with custom art, is a huge draw for me.

Heads up, the color part of the mod won't work in its current place. You accidently left the "Palettes" XML file in the simulation folder, it needs to be in the mapping folder to work.

Thanks Kingsguard! The colour part of the mod was just what I needed. And yellow happens to be my favourite colour.

And thanks also to Baleur for pointing out the palette/Mapping.

Could you post the segment of the XML where you added the faction colors please? I would love to make that change without the other modifications. Thanks in advance!

Sir, yes, sir !

You accidentally had the file Palettes moved away from the Mapping folder. Moving it back solves it.

Noting this for any others who had issues getting the new colors

Just a note, even basic mods (someone had an issue with adding colors) may cause "version compatibility" errors in multiplayer. If you intend on playing Multiplayer, you should swap the original files back in before playing until proper modding is released.

Hmmm yea maybe. I havent this issue indeed cause I dont like 4X multi ^^

Well, I really love EL and as you can see im already modifying the source XML files to have the best experience ever



I thing this could be interresting to share what I changed and why :



-3 new colors, Black/White/Yellow, for fun mostly and more color diversity...



-Big Armies traits for every factions, it means bigger battles



-Doubled the number of unit graphic for units (6 units representated instead of 3 for Settlers or militias for example, 12 instead of 6 for most of the basic units), for more epic scale !



-Added Tier 1 Weapon unlocked tech for Broken lords at start and +10% dust trait as they were really too weak...



Thats all at the moment, its a very few thing, but I will do alot more when Mod support will be released.



If anyone interrested, I will start making some Traits soon, I can upload the files or else, I will keep it for myself



As some of you asked me by PM, here is the mod : http://2zzegfwnn4.1fichier.com/



Extract it in your "Public" folder in Steam/SteamApps/common/Endless Legend



Enjoy

Why not, I like ambitious project, but I will talk with SpaceTroll about it before anything

If you find a way to mod it, I'd be willing o take care of the 3D work Ship models and their animations are very easy for me

Ye It was funny to discover this



Its a really little mod but I really enjoy it. I will make it better when the Mod support will finally come out !



Im planning for some unique traits for each factions to balance them with lore-wise traits.



And if other can like it, im even more happy
