@RPGist my guess is because Mario and Luigi are Heroes, which require the Babylon pack for the Heroes and Legends mode. and the Vietnam pack might be the Preserve district which i believe Daisy relies on. idk if not having the Babylon Heroes and Legends mode will stop the mod from working, but the Vietnam one probably would. if you check the in-game mod menu, it should tell you if its disabled (and i think the DLC thats missing?).

Hmm, any idea why Bowser's improvements are still getting damaged by the volcano?

This mod is stupid fun.

THIS IS THE BEST CIV MOD, DO MORE PLEASE I WILL PAY FOR THAT IT´S BETTER THAN THE NEW CIVILIZATION

Question: I understand why Rise and fall DLC is required, but why are the other DLCs needed?
Is that why the leaders aren't showing up in my selection screen?

This is probably thee highest quality mod I've seen so far, it is so obvious that a tremendous amount of love and effort was put into this. Thank you so much for putting so much care into this. ♥

would it be possible for you to do this with Sonic the Hedgehog characters?

oh this eats, pls do more mods from mushroom kingdom <3

this is so silly and high effort I only wish there were enough leaders I could make an 8 player game

great mod, you could also add the beanbean kingdom from mario and luigi with maybe queen bean as the leader and bean soldiers (a more traditional and militant state maybe)
and than as a counterpart, with similar armies and the same kingdom, you could add fawful as a science focused civ perhaps

Kamek or Bowser Jr as an alternative leader for Koopa Kingdom would be pretty cool. Bowser Jr. Could have his Galaxy Mech as a special leader ability unit and Kamek maybe more science, a special building or unit aswell. The shroobs as a civ would also go so hard. Aswell as the bean kingdom. Fawful and Metaboss could also have their own civ. This has so much Potential lol

Bro this mod is insanely awesome. I love this. I wish Daisy's soldiers were Shy Guys though instead of regular humans!!

Just want to say this is one of my all time favorite Civ mods.

If i understand clint's wording - i too have the same issue.

None of the leaders are appearing in the leader selection screen for me. I will add that I do have a bunch of mods installed, so it absolutely could be a typical 'conflict' situation.

But tl;dr, can confirm that they arent showing for me either.

I have tried to undo any mods I can think of. still does not show. I may have missed some. Did not know if any one ran into this before.

@clint_henness Did you add any new mods after that? there might be a compability issue with one of those ofther mods.

I have played before and is good. But I have come back to it and it will not show in leader pick to use; any ideas as why

Looks so cool but you need to buy dlc that I don't own I really want to play looks 10/10

this mod is so freaking good. i love the mods that just add so much attention to detail

Had to add in this was a stupendous mod. Absolutely loved playing as Bowser all the way to a Diplomatic victory!

This is probably the best mod i have ever played, but i have an idea on how to improve it a bit!
There aren't really enough city names for players
I think the only ones who will end up settling less than 16 cities are the AI, so i ran out fairly quickly
Besides that basically everything is perfect, again, probably the best mod i've ever played!

This is fantastic, if you can add some custom paintings from or similar to the Mario Games that would be amazing!!

Ooh i just had a cool idea!
Could you maybe add a great artist that makes some paintings from Super Mario 64 to go along with Peach's ability? Not sure who would be the artist, but having the Bob-Omb Battlefield painting to teleport around with would be so cool :D

all the civilizations should do this. i love how bowser and peach have their own troops. the lord of the rings WoW warhammer etc should all do that bowser quickly became a favorite just because of that alone

@Tam, Daisy can have a total of 5 palaces due to her leader ability. If your capital is on a desert, coast, next to a wonder, etc. it does not prevent other palaces from spawning. So yes the capital does not count for the bonuses, only the cities after that.

Having fun with this mod, but having a tough time getting a Daisy game off the ground. Could you tell me, if she lands her capital on one of the tiles her civ ability lists, does she effectively lose the free palace for that tile, or does the capital not count and the next city on that tile will get the extra palace?

it's crazy that this is one of the few mods with animated leaders. Cool but crazy.

Bowser adjecency bonuses toward geothermal fissure should be tune down, it is a bit overpowered for the lack of risk compared to volcano or at least, not impact campuses

I love this mod, played it for hours! Daisy has this awsome version of the Chai World theme and I can't find it in the song list, would love to find it outsode the game.

I really enjoyed playing with your mod, especially with all the extras it came! 3D Leaders, Toad & Koopa Minion Units, Bowser’s Airship and of course the Toad Rock Bands

Although I noticed a few issues with Mario & Luigi strangely having no charges to repair after chopping the devotion project (this was played on YnAMP Giant Earth which also didn’t load the Grand Eras mod, so I don’t know if it persists on other maps, currently playing on a custom YnAMP made by me), and it being possible for Daisy to have the ’Exploitative’ Agenda as an AI despite her abilities not necessarily encouraging so lol

I do hope we get more of your civ projects to see in the future!

To whomever made the toad rock band, i shall forever curse you with mild inconvenience on your pants pocket.

I'm curious, are there any model changes to Koopa mechanized units?

@Mico27 OH! Duh. Thank you very much!

@PizzaDeleteza Options ->Graphics -> advanced options -> all the way to the bottom it should say "Animated leaders"

Sorry to bother you, its probably been answered already, but how do I use the 3D animated versions of these leaders? I've been using this mod for a little bit and can't figure out how to turn it on.

dang i dont own the vietnam dlc

At first, I was like "alright, cool, I guess, they'll be fun to see as AI civs" until I started a game with Bowser and realized his governors have things like Arsonist: Builders can start forest/jungle fires in this city. Absolutely amazing and bonkers. Great mod!

Excellent mod. Even more so for having animated portraits, that's a rarity. I'd like to ask if princess Rosalina the "Mother of Stars" could be added (here, or better yet as a separate mod in the same style)? She's my absolute favorite Mario series character, and if her civ were to be packaged separately from the other Mario civs it'd be far easier to justify using her in multiplayer.

Moving on, maybe she could be equipped with buffs towards science and/or religion, as the grandeur of the cosmos could grant both great insights and awesome inspiration.
Aside from that, perhaps her civ could create a "Star Bits" unique luxury resource in small quantities with a unique building or district. Similar to some city-state unique resources.

Anyhow, post's getting long so if you are at all interested please do feel free to use any of these ideas and/or contact me (here or via PM).

Will Mario and Luigi be getting an in-game description of what their ability does? It's a mild inconvenience to consult the workshop page just to reassess what they do.

Also, what is your policy for a mod that takes one of your assets and makes changes to it for use in your mod? I'm asking because I want to make Peach's gloves whiter.

it used to be pretty weak before the update and became obsolete very quickly too, and it still costs population to train

lmfao giving bowser a siege weapon that is faster, works on water, no penalty against land units, AND can settle cities? hilarious

One of the most fun Mods I've ever used. Love the Bowser theme and style, the airship is blast, mobile and able to retreat to the sea is excellent tactically

@Jack Napier
No I'm sorry, I do not do commission.

Are you Available for Commission ?

my best friend and I laughed ourselves silly when I sent out some rock bands from the mushroom kingdom and That happened. it's unbelievable how much fun this mod is, I've had an incredible game with every leader. one thing I will point out is that bowser's airships get confused and appear to rest on the wrong tile after being targeted with ranged attacks, but it also literally doesn't matter because the game still knows where they're supposed to be. thank you for making this, it owns like crazy

@Bragh I made a discussion for bug reports, I noticed the custom animation sometimes get a bit glitchy, I'll try to come back to them and see if I can fix it, I remember trying to fix it and it was really finicky

Do you want bug reports in the thread or here? Peach's animated avatar has a hiccup where I presume the animation loops. She twitches momentarily to the left then back for something like a frame or three. I've noticed it when I click on her when playing as her to read her abilities in-game.

@Soothsayer98 I made a thread in the discussions tab so that we dont clog the comment section too much.

Is there a forum somewhere where we can discuss balance changes, nerfs, buffs, reworks, and bugs over this mod?
It can get a bit of an eyesore and eventually they get hidden on this comment thread, and replying gets annoying too...

Of the three, I feel like Daisy is actually the strongest after having played all 3. Her preserve building being so early is really helpful, and the fact that she passively grants appeal helps the early preserve explode her into the game the fastest of the three, and then she can easily just stay that way with Voidsingers and playing a normal culture game. Peach is next just because culture is the easiest (not counting religious - I ban that in my games) win-con and she gets extra artists assuming you remember to pay attention and not let the AI get them under you. It's super easy to theme Peach's museums compared to every other civ, excepting maybe Kristina.
