Cultural Overhaul [ Ethics-Civics-Traditions ]

ANNOUNCEMENT
**********************

As you might already know, Paradox is planning a big update "Le Guin", which will majorly affect game's economy. For me personally, weak economic system alongside with boring tile-based planetary management, were the most general complaints towards Stellaris, so I'm looking forward to these changes and will try my best to adapt my mod to it at it's full potential.

***********************

Here are the links for the mods, created by @NewAgeKid52 and @ThugQueen69, which are based on mine:

In a way, they can be used as a replacement for my original mod, in case I don't find anybody to keep up the current maintenance.


2.0 UPDATE
***************

Mod is currently updated to 2.0. Please check. Use "Bug Reports" thread for problem reports.

I have to tell you that this was probably the last big Stellaris update I follow. The mod itself is very big and adapting everything to changes of such a scale takes enormous amount of time, especially considering the style in which Paradox holds these updates - absolutely careless towards modders, I'd say.

So, in the near future I will probably have to pass the maintenance of this project to somebody else capable. In hte meantime everyone is free to take the mod and make his own version of it. I'd be grateful for credits, of course:)

=============================================================================

In one of the pre-release Stellaris videos I've seen on Youtube, a chief game developer (not sure who was it, not Martin Anward, some other guy) pointed out, that a key feature of Stellaris will be it's high replayability potential. Stellaris do have it, and I fairly believe that my mod significantly enhances this potential, with all the diversity it provides for customization and development of your Empire's Culture.

It completely reworks almost all the existing Ethics, Civics and Traditions, putting them together to a complex and at the same time pretty coherent system.

This is an overhaul mod, so PLEASE, pay attention to the FULL DESCRIPTION in the related topic

I've opened the donation mainly because, unfortunately, the development of this mod takes not just my time - which I enjoy spending - but also my money, which I have to spend on graphics (icons and pictures).

If you willing to support me, you can do it using PayPal.

My e-mail: pzubets@gmail.com - you should use this address to transfer the money.

Any help is appreciated!
