MUST HAVE REFERENCES - CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE You can find this help in the Civ5 - Macintosh forum. You will need to seek additional help from other modders who use Macs. If you are using a Mac, this guide might not be as helpful. I will try to make special notes regarding this as we go along. If you are creating a mod for the original version of the game or just the Gods & Kings expansion, several things will be different, so proceed with caution. Note: This guide was created with the assumption that you are creating a mod for the Brave New World expansion on a PC using the Sid Meier's Civilization 5 SDK available from Steam. Because I have struggled with this myself as a newbie modder, I have decided to produce this addendum to the original guide by Kael in the hopes of helping other newbie modders. It is also possible that the answer is out dated as well, which leads to even more frustration for the newbie modder. While searching the forum will sometimes provide an answer, it usually involves pouring through a lot of irrelevant posts and threads in order to find the few that are actually relevant to your common problem. The “solution” to this is to search the forum and/or ask a question. A new modder can become very frustrated just trying to create something as "simple" as a new civilization and leader if they are not aware of all the little things that have to be just right. This is due to the addition of two expansion packs, as well as various Steam updates and game patches, all of which have changed the way mods have to be created in order to work properly. Several things have changed since the time Kael wrote his original modder’s guide. Some of the problems encountered are due to the fact that Kael’s mod is out of date and doesn’t cover everything.
It is the author’s intent to help other newbie modders who are struggling to mod Civilization 5. Much of what is covered within this guide is information provided by those same modders in response to questions in the main Civ5 - C&C forum. This guide is not intended for expert modders. Most of the information he presents is still relevant.
I highly recommend that all modders start with his guide as it contains a lot of useful information and insight that I do not intend to rehash in this guide. This document is not intended to replace the fine work done by Kael in his original modder’s guide. The intent of this guide is to be an addendum to Kael’s original guide for creating Civilization 5 mods.
