This is the repository for the Civ V SDK + Vox Populi Mod

VP is a collection of mods for Civ V with the Brave New World Expansion.

• The Community Patch (CP) is the base mod. It contains bugfixes (also for multiplayer), performance improvements and many AI enhancements, but minimal gameplay changes. It can be used standalone and is the basis for many other mods.
• The Community Balance Overhaul (CBO) changes and improves many aspects of the game.
• City State Diplomacy, Civ4 Diplomacy Features and More Luxuries add features to the game.
• EUI improves the user interface.

• You can subscribe to CP on the Steam Workshop, but that version is relatively old.
• One-click installers for the complete VP pack are available on the forum.
• Do not mix both options!

• Just clone the repo. Visual Studio solution files are included in the Expansion2 folder
• You need the Visual C++ 2008 compiler to actually link the resulting game core DLL
• It is possible to use a recent IDE like Visual Studio 2017 Community though, just make sure to use the correct toolset
• Significant portions of the mods are Lua / SQL files. Those can be modified without rebuilding the game core
