This Leader has no music, in contrast to Askiya Reborn.

Very nice unique ability, enjoyed it a lot!

Also, playing as Sonni Ali feels great. He's a character to be feared in my game.

Sonni Ali looks incredibly cool here. Please don't change him.

@Chimpan'G i really appreciate the response and ill be sure to look into the info, thank you :)

Hey @Jaj sorry about the delayed response - the best place to start is probably to pick apart an existing mod. If you want a head-start, you can download the modbuddy project for anything I've uploaded via Github. For example, the project for this one is here: https://github.com/ChimpanG/CIVITAS-Songhai

You're welcome to download it and see how it's been set up. We separate leader and civ, but there are plenty other mods on the workshop that don't, which can also be a good reference.

I've also created a reference sheet for things like effects, requirements, collections etc which will come in handy, here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CXLHOBhOKXB9X9kOgED_xTTld4sFEyMxrDoPwX2NUFc/edit?usp=sharing

As for guides and things, CivFanatics is a great place to get started and you'll find a wealth of info over there.

Hope that helps! :)

hey man, sorry this isnt about your mod, id just like some help with getting started with modding, ive downloaded the Tools and everything and i just dont know where to start and itd be really nice to have a little help if you could

Cmon man, it's only cartoons.
Perhaps one day if I gain some prowess in modelling I'll try my hand at it.

@Clancy McFancy To remake it so that it's in-line with Civ VI's art style is far more difficult than it appears, but if you believe it's worth the effort, then I encourage you to give it a shot yourself. As a hobbyist, I am quite happy with my efforts and I don't intend to spend more time than I already do trying to emulate an art style that has been cultivated by industry professionals. It's frankly beyond my skill set.

Easier said than done, but I feel it's worth the effort.
a mod that adds a historical civ should fit with the artstyle; this is more like a Civ 5 thing.

@Clancy McFancy easier said than done

These should really be redone to fit in with the game's artstyle.
