Question about mods in franchising mode

[Zephirot10]

Are the animal reskin compatible with franchise mode? In case they do the variants will show up in the game or not?

you mean mods? Mods would not show up in Franchise mode. The Franchise market depends on other players and Frontier's offerings, and I doubt the system could be coded to look and match for compatible mods from other players. Now, if the game COULD be coded to accept mods in franchise and on the franchise market, that would be amazing!!

The same is almost certainly true for Challenge mode if not even more so. It depends only on Frontier's offerings, and of course, Frontier would not be offering mods.

Variants should show up in Sandbox mode just fine though.

If you're talking reskins as in variants of existing official Frontier animals, like leuistic, piebald, albinos etc..those should show up in all of the modes.

Mods DO work in challenge mode.

the "reskin" mods DO work in franchise mode. For example, the fluffier camels or big cats "improved" versions, or the "improved exhibit animals - DO work with franchise mode (I only play in franchise and use a ton of mods - they work fine.) You will still see the regular version in trade but the mods do work in your zoos. New Species Mods will not show up in the franchise mode trade. New Species mods only work with sandbox.

Perfect, thank you

Interesting. Maybe I had an issue with a particular mod, but then again I haven't used mods in the last few updates. That's actually advantageous then, if you want to run a zoo with guest-oriented funds.
