Since the last thread for this was 4.5 years ago, it is unlikely that you will read this one, but in the event that you do:

Different Government Types - probably the worst kind of grievances penalty in the game, especially as the game progresses.

A -25 penalty can very easily turn into a -75 penalty, once you switch over from a tier-3 government to a tier-4.

There are mods for this, but they are programmed in such a way to where they cannot conform to the current rendition of the game.

gotcha. Thanks for the response. Game On!

No - I doubt it works with saved games. The mod works by modifying the initial values the games loads with. For a saved game, those values have already been initialized.

Same question actually. I just put this in, loaded my game and all the warmonger penalties have been doubled. ???

Does this work with saved games?

thank you i was wondering could you make a 0 version, id love to be able to have diploamancy with other nations while fighting a war, if i get -1 greviance they almost will not talk too me

Also if there's some different version of this you're interested in, I'll see if I can get to it. This one halves everything. Thought about making a 3/4 version

This mod is made with SQL Update statements. Against the following tables:
Eras, GlobalParameters, DiplomaticActions, DiplomaticStates, ModifierArguments, GameEffectArguments and DiplomaticActions_XP2.

Otherwise on building a mod - you have to use a tool called ModBuddy built by Firaxis. Recommend watching some youtube videos or such to get into it. Too big a topic to get into here. :)

which files did you have to edit or would to make a customize version for ourselfs if i may ask and how to get there, brilliant work

Nice. I hope this mod works nicely without being too extreme in the opposite direction.

@Lilt, after trying the mod, what did you think?

I'm really looking forward to trying this! I always cram Civs in on maps (30-40) so killing one is effectively political suicide. There are some (Zee) mods that help a little bit, but nobody has found the value to tone down that action in particular that IMO is just absurdly extreme for what it should be in Ancient/Classical/Medieval eras.

It's very annoying when, say, Montezuma invades, is pushed back, you leave him his one city, and then the fool re-declares war a few turns later. So I put him down, and then the world treats me like Hitler despite being the victim of a surprise-war, twice.
