Fifteen Techs per Era

For some reason with the "15 techs" mod in by itself in the middle of the mod stack it wasn't working, but I ended up putting the "12 tech" mod second-to-last in the stack, and then the "15 tech" mod as the last one in the stack. I have no idea why, but that worked on the next game creation. Maybe I just had a competing mod or something. All good now, and thanks for the quick reply.

The three * Techs per Era mods are essentially identical under the hoods, and the game's not been updated for years: if one works, they all work. If a faction lacks enough techs to reach the threshold, then it cannot progress to the next era. Either do something to add more techs to the tech tree (buy DLC, add another mod with techs),, or use a * Techs per Era mod which works for you, i.e. 12.

If you're getting vanilla behaviour, then you're either not installing the mod correctly, or another mod is overwriting my changes.

The "12 Techs per Era" seems to work, but this one doesn't. I loaded it, and the first Era moved to the second after only 9 techs (the default). Is this because the first era only has 14 techs, so less than 15?

Hit subscribe, and it'll download from Steam. Once that finishes, open the game, and at the main menu there's a button that says "Mods" or something similar. Click that, and in the new menu, you need to select the mod and enable it. Sorry, I've not used/played the game in a very long time, so I may not be describing it perfectly.

i am a rookie at adding mods- so- I just subscribe and it will be applied to my game or is there further instructions I am missing?

That's great! Glad it worked out, and hope you enjoy yourself.

@Vacuity. Your suggestion did work! It is active now! Thanks!

@Vacuity, thanks again for the help and searching for the solution, much apprciated! I will try what you suggested and hope for the best!

I've never seen or heard of that issue with this game. A quick search on Google didn't offer any obvious solutions aside from reinstalling the entire game. I'd recommend unsubscribing and then resubscribing to the mod before you consider uninstalling and reinstalling the entire game. Other than that, I'm at a loss for troubleshooting steps.

@Vacuity, thanks for the reply! The mod does not appear in the mods menu ingame. I have no other mods installed.
