Hi infixo,
your mod has been translated by ASM590319 into German and the translation is now part of the German translations for Civilization VI mods mod pack.
We would be more than happy if you could refer to the language translation in your mod description.

Is this compatible with Project 6T: Grand Eras?
infixo  [author] Jun 30, 2023 @ 12:30pm 
This is what civ is about. You make decisions and then you have consequences xD

You are right, there is no way to remove a selected tech or civic.
I know that the best thing is not to select it in the first place. But sometimes I do it and then realize that it is a mistake and that I shouldn't have selected anything.
That's why I thought that maybe you could create a solution for that use-case.
infixo  [author] Jun 30, 2023 @ 7:46am 
@adi4k Can you ve more precise? Remove how exactly? A civ/tech cannot be removed from the tree in-game. If you don't want to progress a civ or tech, then just don't sleect it...?
adi 4k Jun 30, 2023 @ 5:39am 
@infixo, would it possible for you to add the ability of removing a tech / civic from being selected for progress?

Or is there another way of doing that already?

Just as you can remove something from being produced in a city, so that there is no progress towards anything on that turn.

nice job

@infixo If it is not possible to do this without turning off the mod, then fine. The point is that this mod fixes a bug caused by another mod, but I do not like the abundance of icons :)
infixo  [author] Jan 27, 2023 @ 7:15am 
@lowpolycat Disable the mod?
Broken Lord Jan 27, 2023 @ 1:27am 
Can I turn off all the new icons?
JNR Jan 21, 2023 @ 2:22pm 
they're not compatible btw

@jakob Is it so difficult to check by yourself?

Does this mod works with the 6T Project mods?
infixo  [author] Aug 25, 2022 @ 11:47am 
@mckstumpy Yes, ofc.
PPORI Aug 25, 2022 @ 9:10am 
nice!!
mckstumpy Jul 3, 2022 @ 4:57pm 
Does this work with your other TechTree mods?

Base game tech tree shows star icon on Mercantilism that says "lumber mill can be built on rainforest"
btt does not show this
infixo  [author] Dec 1, 2021 @ 12:45pm 
@sgames Is there in the base game (with no BTT)?
s.games Dec 1, 2021 @ 10:23am 
"The Lumber Mill is a standard tile improvement in Civilization VI. It can be built only on tiles with Woods.

In the Gathering Storm expansion, the Lumber Mill is unlocked with Construction and can be built on tiles with Rainforests after researching Mercantilism."
(https://civilization.fandom.com/wiki/Lumber_Mill_(Civ6))

The Mercantilism Civic does not indicate that. There is no icon for that.

Para, you've commented that on a few mods, none of which crash. Fix your game and mods before saying multiple mods don't work.

Game crashes with this mod on start.

Hi Infixo,

I've been tinkering with the mod a bit to make it a better fit for a mod I'm currently working on and was wondering if you'd be interested in talking about it in more detail so that those changes might find their way into this mod's live version.

What I added:

- database tables for custom items that may not come from modifiers. Other mods could also add tems here without having to deal with tech/civic descriptions themselves. The goal was to remove the necessity of the "star icons" completely.

- populated those tables with all base game abilities (GDR upgrades, victory points, etc.)

- reworked the icons and created new backgrounds; preview of some (mostly background) icons: https://i.imgur.com/uHWOa1H.png

- yield-colored backgrounds for improvement bonuses

- a new setting to make the eureka/inspirations icons optional (since some mods add quite a lot of new elements, leaving no space for those icons).

Hello, now I can't trade with other civilizations. Please check it. Thank you

Hi, the following file has been updated, you might want to take a look:
..\Base\Assets\UI\Popups\BoostUnlockedPopup.lua
infixo  [author] Jan 30, 2021 @ 2:03am 
@narnyay Yes. Why?
Narnyay Dec 26, 2020 @ 4:52pm 
does this mod still work?
infixo  [author] Nov 30, 2020 @ 11:34am 
@fkagargamel Features that CQUI provides also work when using BTT. Previously there were overwritten by BTT.
fka-gargamel Nov 30, 2020 @ 1:03am 
What updated with cqui exactly?
Human Crouton Nov 29, 2020 @ 3:37pm 
Just noticed the update with CQUI. Nice.
GeloDGreat Sep 25, 2020 @ 5:42am 
Is this compatible with concise?
temp.use88 Sep 9, 2020 @ 3:38pm 
Is it possible to make this mod show the actual tech/civic progress on hovering? Like 780/1318. Or is there a mod that does this?
infixo  [author] Aug 27, 2020 @ 4:22pm 
@blaze Thank you, I will look into it.
Blaze Aug 27, 2020 @ 2:23pm 
Minor adjustment that may need to be made for the August update; when scrambled tech is on, techs that provide civ-unique features are still indicated by the "!" icon, even though unrevealed, which gives information about certain tech locations. It's a very minor issue, which some people may even prefer as a method to reduce the randomness, but probably good to take a quick look at.
infixo  [author] Jul 24, 2020 @ 7:24am 
@gelodgreat BTT and RTT are independent. You can use both or only one of them.
GeloDGreat Jul 24, 2020 @ 7:02am 
should I use this with Real Tech Tree?
dkb322.sign Jul 3, 2020 @ 12:34am 
@infixo Thanks, it works now.
I was using this mod on a game on Jun 30 and when I reloaded my game on Jul 1, it showed the new errors in Lua.log.
For other linux users, inorder to get most Civ6 mods to work, I create symlinks of the current mod's files in lowercase that points to the current mod's files.
eg. civicstree_btt_xp2.lua -> CivicsTree_BTT_XP2.lua

The only downside is that when a mod is changed then symlinks have to be recreated.
I believe Mac users might be facing the same problems because their OS is case-sensitive like linux and not like Windows.
infixo  [author] Jul 3, 2020 @ 12:07am 
@dkb Well, you did not have previously because the mod didn’t overwrite any files. The functionality I added in v3 unfortunately requires changes to .xml and there is no way to do so without overwriting them. So, when you lowercased the files, it works ok now?
dkb322.sign Jul 2, 2020 @ 10:29pm 
@infixo Thanks for the quick response.
It worked after I renamed the files to lowercase. I am accustom with changing files in mods to lowercase inorder for them to work for Linux but for some reason I thought I didnt have to do it because I had this mod working before.
Firaxis has to come up with a method to automatically handle the case-sensitivity of mods because most developers do not make their mod to be 'linux-friendly'.

Your UI mods are great and are a 'must have' when playing Civ6.
infixo  [author] Jul 2, 2020 @ 5:23pm 
@dkb These are all game files, not the mod. Could be a naming issue. See important notes, p. 1. You need to change the names of these files to lowercase.
dkb322.sign Jul 2, 2020 @ 3:59pm 
I am getting an error when I load a saved game which uses this mod.
It was working before the most recent mod update (1 Jul @ 8:16pm).
I am running it on Linux so maybe there is some case-sensitivity in the code.
Here is the output of the error -

Runtime Error: C:\Emu\AppAssets\Base\Assets\ui\screens\techtree.lua:275: attempt to index a nil value

@spacemilk Wonders are handled by the game. For resources please read the section “harvests and removal icons”.
< blank > Jun 22, 2020 @ 1:37am 
Out of curiosity, does this work with wonder mods that add new wonders to the tech tree (but do not change the tree itself?) or resource mods?
infixo  [author] May 27, 2020 @ 8:34am 
@kitvs Well, I don't know about Korean much, but if you accidentaly put some illegal Unicode characters or the editor messed up the line breaks, then you could exactlu get this kind of game crash. Please do not change manually the mod files unless you really know what you are doing.
KITVS May 27, 2020 @ 7:20am 
@infixo

1. I played on the Windows 10 operating system and it happened directx 11 or 12.
2. It happened yesterday. It didn't happen before that.


The mod I installed is as below.

AI +
Better Report Screen
Better Tech Tree
Colorized Historic Moments
Concise UI
Enhanced Mod Manager
Expensive Nukes

Good Goody Huts
Leugi's Unique Distict Icons
Quck Start
R.E.D. Modpack
Real Great People
Religion Expanded

Sukritact's +Civ Series (Burma, Iceland, Siam, Ethiopia)
Sukritact's Civ Selection Screen
Sukritact's Resources
Warfare Expanded Complete
Warfare Expanded Armored Assault


*Maybe it was because I randomly changed the translated xml file to change Better Tech Tree mode to Korean inside my computer.
Of course, this is also a guess. The reality may be different. That's it.


3. There is no problem today as we have turned the integrity around and used Better Tech Tree as it was in the existing English language.
infixo  [author] May 26, 2020 @ 12:40pm 
@kitvs 1. What platform. 2. When exactly does it happen. 3. Post the logs.
KITVS May 26, 2020 @ 9:12am 
help me!!! In my case,
I get an error when I install this mode. Anyone with similar symptoms?
