@camcam @Don Schoko - Most welcome, glad people like the mod, only started it for my friends and I to use so glad others get something out of it.

Eventually I’ll dig deeper into modding but just not enough time.

Thanks for mainting this ultra nice mod!

thank u for maintaining this mod <3

@Androx89 - Most welcome (:

Thanks for the update <3

@Everyone - Mod has been updated, just waiting for patch 1.2 to come out of beta for anything else.

Sorry for the multiple uplaods, the issue was on my end, and the versions of the uploaded files was mixed up. Thank to those who helped me give it a test.

@Tanaka - thankyou (: I have a new update soon, just testing the changes ect takes abit.

One of my favorite mods thanks for updating!

@<:)))< - Thankyou for the kind words (:

Thank you. Very good Mod

@Everyone - I’ll update the mod sometime this week, I don’t have the DLC but that should not matter, I tested and it still seems to work at the moment. Hopefully the next day or two I’ll get time to get done.

@Dr.SInclair - That's a great point. Hopefully said issue does not exist, I've never noticed it myself and it may be as simple as a item reveal.

to be fair, true seeing exists. and a LOT of items give it aswell.

I absolutely do remember sneaking up near enemies without scouts getting hunted down, provided the hero did not have true seeing.

@HexBugFan - Arh I see, may be worth adding it to the suggestions on their discord too. The Beta patch notes are out already so also a worth checking in there.

I've noticed my camouflaged scouting units be randomly attacked it feels like. I think other people have had that problem, but I do agree that it is something the devs should fix

@HexBugFan - I'm unsure, but it sounds like that is something for the Developers to fix or implement, this mod does not affect those type of inbuilt game mechanics.

May have to test it out, I don't recall anytime recently the AI detecting my armies when camoflaged.

Will the ability for camouflage to work against ai be implemented? Would love to sneak several armies of hidden scouts and shades to surprise a random city

@Justicar - Hey thanks, awesome to hear, I didn’t expect so many people to enjoy it as for awhile before I uploaded it my little group used it just for our matches haha.

Glad it’s helped.

I consider your mod a must have. Always hated strategy games that let the AI magic stuff out of thin air while I"m trying to run an economy to compete! Sadly that is how most of them operate.

The AI gets other tools to compensate, but it’s fairer than dealing with the vanilla AI spamming stacks and worse, as now they play by what their economy and production can handle, making it feel far more fair and competitive and not a endless slog during war.

Check the description for those details.

In my opinion it makes the game feel different for the better, but if you’ve mastered beating the vanilla games hardest AI with their spam stacks, mass resources, xp bonuses and their production bonuses among others, this will be easier.

Do I understand correctly that since the AI no longer receives more armies and resources from increasing difficulty, the AI has become weaker? or has the AI started to play much better to compensate for this lag?

baby

@Bonnibello - Do you mean in the base game or with the Mod? The Ai has some set variables that are different from the player, with the mod, a lot has been removed and aligned so their economy dictates their gameplay far more like the player, and to outright remove their spam of units, production and unit XP ect ect.

So most of the rules for them are the same for the player, the highest difficulties they have some changes to make sure they don't deficit in the early game and can clear their starting area without issue, as neutrals could hamstring them in.

Then you can use the game settings on making a non story realm to set more parametres for more of a challenge for certain ruler. Like a extra starting city or heroes ect.

The AI Cheats regardless of difficulty and boost settings? I knew something was fishy...

@Eveyone - Going forward I will try and keep the mod updated with some changes too, although I cannot spend the money on new DLC.

But! Thankfully, the mod should not require me owning the DLC to continue keeping it updated, or adding any changes needed in the upcoming dev patches.

@Washeek - I tested and I couldn't get it too crash. Try V-Sync off as that has solved alot of crashes for me, although it still happens on occasion.

Sorry, I went between 30-40 turns in on auto play. While watching the AI too, no crashes on my end and I was using a large map Max AI's with my custom leaders on it.

@Wesheek - Hey, maybe unsub/resub, the last patch was it was working fine, i dont have the new season pass for the instant drop, but it looks like a cosmetic DLC. I'll have to test soon, but I had not had any issues myself yet.

Hi, thank you for this mod.
FYI
According to my testing, this is crashing my new games since the newest patch.

This is the mod I was looking for AGEs, OF course it did WONDERS to my games ;)

@Aten ah ok yes sorry i was not sure how i write this in english that is i used my comment in german

- Hey, due to them being AI, not quite, but far more compared to vanilla. Most changes are listed in the mods description.

Does AI have the same rule as players in this MOD?

@Lasswell - hey, sorry I had to auto translate, but I don’t think I’ve ever had that problem myself. Could be a vanilla game bug.

hey hey ich hatte ein bug mit einem meiner Gegner und zwar hatte er nur eine Stadt und hat gar nichts gemacht über das ganze spiel hinweg.

That's good to know, thanks

@M10 - I was still able to get achievements with it, not sure if recent changes have changed anything with that. But I’ve gotten a lot of achievements and have never not used this mod (:

If I use this will it disable achievements?

@Ikari - Thakyou for the kind words, I'll keep the updates coming, I love the game as my friends and I play it when life gives us some free time, and with the new update and this mod we feel like it plays super nice haha. But also, we are not not the best at it. Thankyou again (:

@Slingshot, @Sir Pounce. - Thankyou both, your welcome (:

This mod really has made me enjoy this game TREMENDOUSLY more, and it always amazes me how quick on the trigger you are at updating it when the game gets big sweeping changes. Thank you so much for making it!

Thank you very much! :)

Thanks for the mod, just what I was looking for

@Mblades - Thankyou, that means a lot (:

thanks for your work keep it up

@Everyone - Updated, Resub/Verify install for latest version, may not be save game compatible, I apologise. Working on my end and on friends tests. Still some crashes that were fixed by turning off V-Sync for me, and other settings.

@Everyone - Due to timezone differences and work, I wont be able to update the mod until later tomorrow afternoon.

Good to know. Appreciate your efforts!

@ImIsna - Confirmed it's already fixed for the next version, currently they'll just null each other so it wont skew it out of shape. Thanks for the heads up, I still have some more changes for their personalities with the new update to adjust.

@ ImIsna - I’ll double check today, should only be one. Just waiting for the DLC update to patch the new mod version, think that may already be corrected on my latest version.

Thanks for letting me know, no other mods with it?

The Erudite Sage tooltip states that they both like and dislike "empires with stronger research," which I assume is unintended?

@Everyone - Just saw the new update Beta patch notes. Some great AI changes that will go really well ontop of this mod.

It may take me abit to tinker and get the update ready for when the patch drops. But the latest changes should really help players use this mod while adding their own difficulties on-top of AI rulers for the extra challenge, while this mod should make them still play with the above description, fairer and inline with the player bar the adjusted values of choice.
