Event and I'm happy to see so many mod authors have been sharing their content. In Week 3 (20th - 26th April) we had 259 entries from 230 author across 48 games. Cm2 dongle manager latest version. Overall we saw 1301 mods shared in total, which is the highest since we started this event. Historically, Firaxis released this ‘DLL source’ to the public some time after a Civ game’s release – six months after Civilization IV, and 18 months after Civilization V.

A splendidly-named Civilization modder, GrrrArrrg, has released an environment reskin for Civilization VI that recreates the look of Civilization V. Better yet, GrrrArrrg is actually Brian Busatti – Civ VI’s art director.

Busatti was challenged by his colleagues at Civ developer Firaxis to “create an example environment skin using only the tools and off-the-shelf modelling software” – so, no internal dev tools. He came up with a total environment conversion, and a clear demonstration of just what’s possible with Civ VI’s basic SDK and other readily available tech. Details, and more gorgeous screenshots, are on this thread at CivFanatics.

This is a pretty big deal given how limited Civ V’s SDK was when it came to graphical modding. Ahead of Civ VI’s release, we spoke with some of the community’s best modders, and this area was universally agreed to be a weakness with the previous game. In this respect then, Civ VI has been a clear improvement. You can sample the results for yourself at Environment Skin: Sid Meier’s Civilization V on the Steam Workshop. It’s compatible with every version of the game, up to and including Gathering Storm.

Busatti has done a great job recreating the look of Civ V, through a more muted colour key and modifications to all terrain textures. He’s even adjusted the density of water (modders have some godlike powers these days) and the base colour of the ocean floor “to match [the] lighter sand of Civ V.”

When it was first revealed, Civilization VI’s art style was pretty controversial. Featuring warm colours and cartoonishly-proportioned character models, its look seemed inspired by the Civilization Revolution mobile spin-offs, and alienated Civ’s more traditional fan-base.

Personally I found the new look a little jarring at first, but I’ve adjusted to it since and I really enjoy its warmth. Many players haven’t been able to get to that point, though, so it’s great that a mod now exists to help them enjoy Civ VI.

The Civilization V SDK ships with the C++ source code for the Civilization V CvGameCoreDLL. This is the most powerful tool modders have, as it allows us to directly alter game code and game logic, but also one of the least used, as it has a codebase in excess of 100,000 lines of code and the architecture of the program is not always clear. In this article some basic tasks in modding the DLL will be covered, as well as some more advanced ones as well.

This article is NOT a C++ tutorial. If you need one of those, Google is your friend. I will assume that you have knowledge of C++ coding, as well as knowledge of how a civ game works. I will not assume knowledge of the Civ 5 dll or the civ 4 dll, which was very similar architecture-wise.

The DLL source comes with solutions for Visual Studio 2008, 2010, and 2012 (the 2012 one also compiles in 2013). However the project requires the VC++ 2008 toolchain. Since Visual Studio 2008 is a slightly outdated IDE it doesn't have the best features, so you should install Visual C++ 2008 Express and Visual C++ 2013 express to get the best development experience. If you don't want to do that just developing in VC2008 is fine as well. Any of the paid versions of Visual studio from these years will also work. Both of the express ones can be downloaded for free from Microsoft's website.

Once you have your IDE(s) installed you only need to make one change to make the DLL compile. In CvGameCoreDLL.rc for each project (there are 3, one for each dll) you need to change the reference to afxres.h to windows.h. After this simply build (you may need to clean first) and you should get 3 dlls, one for vanilla, G&K, and BNW. Note, you can safely remove the projects for versions your mod will not support (ie, you can only have it build the BNW dll).

To add a new DLL to a mod, open up ModBuddy, and right click your mod project and select 'Add existing item'. Navigate to the output folder from Visual Studio and select the DLL file, then click 'add'. After this you need to set import to VFS for true for the DLL, and when your mod loads it should also tell the Civilization 5 exe to unload the normal DLL and load yours.

The civilization 5 DLL has a lot of code in it and can be confusing to a newcomer. In this section I will endeavor to give a 30000 foot overview of the internals of the DLL.

The Game Objects: The Civilization 5 game is represented by a few major classes.

CvGame: This class is the current game in progress. It contains basic info about the game, such as the settings used to create the game. It also does game-level things such as track score and check for winners, among other things.

CvMap: This class contains the game map. It contains all of the CvPlots, as well as map-wide methods, such as the areas visible, the areas which contain water, the number of owned plots, etc.

CvPlot: This is one hex tile in the game map. It contains enough data to describe what it is (terrain, features, improvements, resources, etc). It is also referenced by all location-based game objects and functions, so if you are making any edits to location based game mechanics you will need to edit CvPlot to be aware of these mechanics.

CvPlayer: This is a human or AI player. If AI, it owns all of the AI objects. NOTE: Any player-wide effects you want to add should normally be handled through CvTeam, which deals with permanent allies and other instances of multiple civs working together. CvPlayer should only be used if you want to expressly want the effect to only be on one civ.

CvCity: This is one city. It (through other objects) handles all buildings inside it, and processes many different effects. It also is responsible for ensuring that construction of anything is properly handled.

CvUnit: This is a unit. It mainly contains info about itself and it's situation. It is also responsible for moving itself around and performing actions on it's environment. It is NOT responsible for combat. See CvUnitCombat if you really want to mess with combat mechanics.

These are far from the only objects, and each of these objects is more complex than this. This is only meant as a top-level overview for new dll coders on where to go if you want to do certain things. Later I will explain how these interact with the data loading code when I write about new XML/SQL items.
