I didn't realize it, but José Rizal gets a unique event for *every* civ in the game... coming soon in Yamatai v4. Sadly we can't mod the 3D event panels yet, but this will do for now #civ7 #modding

Hard at work on the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom for #Civ7. This is one close to my heart, as it was one of the first Civ 5 mods I ever made, so I've gone through a lot of iterations to try and get it right. Coming up with abilities for a Great Person civ is hard #Civilization #Modding

A handful of places I visited while researching Yamatai, including the burials at the Yoshitake-Takagi site, and the Fukuoka City Museum which houses the King of Na Gold Seal (Himiko's Memento)! #Civ7 #Civilization #modding

Realized I hadn't updated my mod to match the new, galvanizing loading screen text yet. Once again, writing these is WAY HARDER than it seems. Here are a few tries #civ7 #civilization7 #modding

BG and localization working! No idea how to get the BG loaded in to the shell so it appears on the main menu, but I'm sure we'll get full modding capabilities soon 🥲 #civ7 #modding

Played a whole game up to the Modern Age just to check if this super rare event no-one will ever see actually worked (it did!) #civ7 #modding

Finally finished my read through of Autumn in the Heavenly Kingdom by @stephenplatt.bsky.social. A really gripping narrative of the Taiping movement at its height, with lots of fascinating details about the characteristics of their strange, improvised government. Highly recommended.

Successfully modded Narrative Event! Writing these is WAY harder than it looks. The temptation to ramble is real #civ7 #civilization7 #modding

This effect is intended for (probably not until mod tools) an Antiquity Age Yamatai civ, which hopefully will synergize nicely with both Himiko personas. Might even get some simple 3D work in there too, we'll see.

It's working! Officially a #Civ7 modder

I don't think the samurai are keen on my elective republic #civ7 @andrewalanjohnson.bsky.social
