Description
Consider my mods to be informally licensed in the spirit of formal licenses such as CC BY-SA[creativecommons.org] and MPL 2.0[www.mozilla.org]. In other words, I strongly support "Cathedral" style modding ideals[wryemusings.com]; feel free to build upon my work so long as you provide proportionate attrition to myself and generally follow the spirit of the licenses mentioned above.

Every Rise of Nations mod that I've released, all in one collection for easier perusal.

I currently have no further new mods slated for release (as of Feb 2021), so I can focus my modding efforts on further developing CBP, and finishing Fall of Nations. This will almost certainly result in nonetheless making standalone mods for features developed for FoN (see: Extra Menu Backgrounds), and I may fix/port old mods in the process as well.

Recommended for all users:

CBP includes every other bug fix mod I've created, as well as additional bug fixes not in other mods - including a workaround for the extremely significant bug with object masks. It also incorporates features other than bug fixes which were previously released as individual mods. Thus, I no longer specifically recommend any of the individual bug fix / enhancement mods - use CBP instead.

Personal highlights:

The full list below is sorted with the newest mods at the bottom, so if you find the first few mods boring, that's why.

Please see each individual mod's description for information, installation guidelines, and compatibility notes. Some of the mods in this collection are not compatible with each other.

Support:
If you like one of my mods, please consider rating it. If you notice any issues, please let me know so I can fix them!
