Patch Notes Version 1.10.0
- Addition:
- [Easy Post]: A mod to ease up the Mail gameplay a little bit:
- Mail can now be loaded and unloaded onto any ship type just like a regular good.
- You can set a minimum stock in the Kontor
- You can now use normal traderoutes via ship or airship to distribute Mail (but not convert it! You still need the Airship routes to convert Local into Regional and Oversea Mail!!!)
- You can assign Mail as exclusive good to load/unload at Airship Platforms. For this you first need to press "Shift+C" while the Platform is not selected. Upon selecting the Platform afterwards, you'll find the regular UI of an Advanced Pier. Choose "Local Mail" from the list. The Platform will now only accept Mail Airship Routes to load/unload there. Deselect the Platform and press "Shift+C" again to switch back to the normal UI (Thanks to Kurila for providing his shared mod "UI Change" for this feature to work).

Patch Notes Version 1.9.2
- Fixes:
- [Customizable Research and Items Mod]: fix labeling on one of the toggles (was accidentally inverted before): Toggle on = custom, Toggle off = vanilla settings now! Delete the iMYA tweaking file saved at the Anno 1800 installation directory .../.imya/tweaks/[Cheat] Combined Customizable Research and Items Mod (Taludas).json before using it with iMYA again. WARNING: This will delete your saved settings and you need to set them again!
Patch Notes Version 1.9.1
- Fixes:
- [Customizable Research and Items Mod]: fix an issue with iMYA customisation, where the toggle to switch on/off the custom item research value cost increase didn't work properly.
Patch Notes Version 1.9.0
- Additions:
- [Show Grass for FreeArea Buildings]: This small mod switches the grass in the area of FreeArea buildings back on. Previously, it was automatically hidden and this resulted in the underground of some orchards looking quite bare.
Patch Notes Version 1.8.4
- Fixes:
- [Cinnamon Tree Fix]: fix an issue in the German localization where the new Cinnamon Tree Prop had no text. Thx @Kurila
- [Cinnamon Tree Fix]: improve the new tree prop for the cinnamon tree. The funny stem wobble is gone due to the usage of the updated rdm4-bin-plant.exe from Jakob and Colours are improved.
- [Customizable Research and Items Mod]: fix several Typos in the iMYA description texts of some value descriptions. Thx @Kurila
Patch Notes Version 1.8.3
-
Adjustments:
- Adjustments for all mods to the new features of iModYourAnno v0.5 (new images, default options are toggled automatically in the tweaking tab). WARNING: Adjust your Tweaking options in iMYA before you continue playing, because those will be lost after update to v0.5!
-
Fixes:
- [No Explosions]: Fixed the issue, that the OW Oil Refinery was not effected by the explosion reduction buff.
Patch Notes Version 1.8.2
- Fixes:
- Fixed several load order issues du to miss-spelled entry in the modinfo.json. Therefore some mods that are supposed to load at the bottom of the list didn't load there. This could have caused issue if you were using mods from other authors.
Patch Notes Version 1.8.1
- Fixes and Addition:
- [PC Time as Ingame Time]: Exchanged the trigger to synch the time with a more performance friendly one, only checking every 10 seconds for the local time. Added the option to customize the mod via iModYourAnno. You can now choose to alternatively toggle of the PC time synch and set your own, custom Day Length. The standard Anno Day lasts 24 minutes, so 1 minute real time equals 1 hour in game. Customize to your liking. Note that the time must be entered in milliseconds.
Patch Notes Version 1.8.0
- Additions:
- [PC Time as Ingame Time]: Added a mod to set the PC time as ingame time for the Day-Night-Cycle
- [Fertilizer_Vehicle Drivers_Luggage People with Texture]: Added a mod that fixed white mesh textures at certain zoom levels for a variety of DLC content vehicles and inhabitant feedback units.
Patch Notes Version 1.7.2
- Fixes:
- [Combined Research and Items Mod]: fixed a small bug with CultureItems (Animals, Museum exhibitions, Flowers, etc.) not being stackable inside ship slots.
Patch Notes Version 1.7.1
- Fixes:
- [No Explosions]: The buff to remove the explosion chance should now be active in newly discovered regions.
Patch Notes Version 1.7
-
Fixes:
- Edited the names of several mods in the modinfo.json for increased uniformity between mods folder name and displayed iMYA mod name
- Renamed a title in iMYA tweaking for the mod "Combined Research and Items"
-
Additions:

- Added a mod that disables factory explosions via a buff.
- Mod "More Arctic Scrap" is now tweakable via iModYourAnno.
Patch Notes Version 1.6
- Added the Combined Research Mod and merged it with the "Items Stackable" Mod. Therefore, if you install manually, make sure to delete the old mod named: "[zZzFix] Item Stack Size". iMYA will give a automatic warning in the mod browser. Please remove the old mod there as well.
- Added "Fan Factory Fixed" Mod, a mod to resolve the issue of the non-clippable Fan Factory persistent since GU17.
Patch Notes Version 1.5
- Small Bugfix to include some missing German localization for the Mine overhaul
- Fix for Halloween Ornaments pack for GU17 as well as missing decal for Halloween marketplace.
Patch Notes Version 1.4
- Removed the Mod "Celluloid Planes floating" since the fix was finally included in GU16.
- Adjusted the Mod "Highlife Goods Fix for Tourist Season" for addition of Mezcal in DLC12.
- Adjust the Mod "Campher and Cinnamon use different tree configs" to the new orchard construction category with GU16.
- Adjust the Mod "Mineslot Unification" to the new slots introduced by DLC12, so that new slots are considered as well. Minor clipping on some slots for some mine slot/workarea models may occur. If you have loaded the expansion of the NW already, slots will be "converted" to look uniform, but still have different GUIDs. Therefore if you select one slot, they don't highlight unisono, but still individual. If you start a new game or use a pre GU16 save, this issue will not be present.
- Adjusted the Mod "Halloween Decorations" to use the new Church skin tab with the Ornamental DLC "Old Town".
Patch Notes Version 1.3
- Added the Mod "Halloween Decorations" with many spooky Ornaments fitting to bring you in a good mood for Halloween Festival.
Patch Notes Version 1.2
- Added the Mod "Mineslot Unification", which lets you build every mine on every slot.
Patch Notes Version 1.1
- Removed the Mod "Fertiliser Silo in Enbesa costs Wanza and Mudbricks" since the fix was finally included in GU15.
Please remember to always check the Changelog to see the new or changed features.
This little mod makes scrap grinding in the Arctic more easy. It increases the maximum scrap amount from a crate to 15. Average is going up as well, the range is normally between 5 and 15 tons per crate.
Note that the "new" crates need some time to spawn, so don't worry if your first crates have normal amounts of scrap in them.
This mod fixes not only the oversight, that camphor and cinnamon orchards use the same tree as graphic asset, but the same tree config as well. So before cinnamon and camphor orchards haven't had their productivity lowered by overlap as much as the other orchards. To fix this, I created a recoloured tree prop with the camphor tree as base. The new tree is a little smaller, the leaves use a darker green colour and the bark is now coloured in a more redish tone. With the tree ready I assigned it to a unused tree config of the NW, so that now cinnamon and camphor orchard overlap properly. The cinnamon tree can be used for the tree brush as well.
In addition, the orchards are now located in a separate construction category inside the Jornalero build menu to reduce the entries for better overall visibility. Furthermore, I reduced the internal storage of all orchards from 10 to 4 to reduce the enormous range they have in vanilla which creates all sorts of logistical problems.
This small mod fixes the notorious bug with the floating plains of celluloid in the chemical factory for celluloid which Ubi continues to ignore or just won't fix, so I did it myself. NO LONGER NECESSARY SINCE GU16 FIXED THIS!
This mod is not really made by request, but by an idea from Wiesl in the Ubisoft Discussion Forum. His post inspired me to adjust some of the highlife goods and features for better integration with tourist season and other DLC.
Detailed changes:
- add Cognac and Mezcal to Beer Festival Buff
- add Cognac and Mezcal to Harvest Festival
- add Cognac and Mezcal to City Carneval
- add Cognac and Mezcal to Anarchy Festival
- add Cognac Production Chain to all alcohol production chains
- redesigned Buffs for cafe, bar and Iron Tower recipes to include cognac and biscuits and even the amount of buffed goods
- add Cognac and Mezcal to Armagnac Bottles
- add Cognac Manufactory to all drink productions
- add Biscuit Assembly Line to all food productions
- add all Orchards to Origin of Mankind of and Miombo Woodlands set buffs
This small mod changes the building costs of the Fertiliser Silos in Enbesa from Timber and Bricks to use Wanza Wood and Mudbricks. NO LONGER NECESSARY SINCE GU15 FIXED THIS!
Adds the Particularly Pull-y Pulley to be craftable at Old N8s Kontor in the Arctic Region. It comes at quite a hefty cost though! So be prepared!
Crafting costs for Pulley
- 50 t of Artic scrap
- 50 t of Tier 3 OW scrap
- 50 t of Gold Ingots
- 25 t of steam engines
- 25 t of celluloid
- 50 t of Gas
The crafting recipe is unlocked upon completing the main storyline of the arctic session (so when you get your first pulley).
Just a little mod to get rid off the ugly anarchistic Mercier flags that pop up all over your residences and factories if they are influenced by a anarchistic Mercier Item like the Sophisms, Pietro Proud or the Printing Press so that you can enjoy an unobstructed view onto your city.
Tired of Emperor Ketema commenting on all things you do? Increasing hours for your workers, building water pumps, researching great discoveries, your city going up in flames? No more, I virtually shut his mouth so that you can be a cruel multi-million industrial and exploit the workforce of your people properly.
Adds three new variations of the Anarchist Loudspeaker Ornament.
- No flags
- One Flag with Player Banner/Colour
- Two Flags with Player Banner/Colour
Cycle through the variations of the original Loudspeaker ornament with your individual hotkey (Standard: Shift+V) to get to the new variations.
Needs the Uplay reward unlocked to be able to build the loudspeaker ornament.
Ever wondered why the icon background colour of the shopping arcades doesn't fit the roof colour of the respective building? Look no further. This small mod changes the background colour of the icons of the furniture store and the drugstore to the colour of the roofs of their buildings for better accessability and congruence.
Second feature is the coulour change of the 6 flags hanging on the long side of the buildings to true player colour. Before they were mixed up because there was an other colour underneath the player colour layer.
You enjoy it thinking about Investors having to hump up a new billiard table to their apartment in the skyscraper every day? Then this mod is just for you. Replaces the Icon for Billiard Tables with on more suited for a sturdy and heavy Billiard Table.
In my opinion, the Billiard Table Icon from the Highlife DLC is a little underwhelming. If you have played at a tournament graded table once, you will see that these legs are to small and not sturdy enough to be a good quality billiard table. Since there is an alternative Icon file in the game assets, which looks way better in my opinion, I wrote this little mod to just replace the icon. Nothing else was changed gameplay wise!
This little mod allows you to build every mine on any slot available. There is one uniform slot for all mines. Therefore you can no longer build mines directly from clicking on the slot. You have to find the mine in the build menu first!
Same goes for clay pits. There is now one slot called Opencast Resource Deposit on which all opencast mines will fit.
After DLC12, I exchanged all new mine slots in the New World (Bauxite, Helium, Iron, Minerals) with Gold slots. If you use an existing savegame, the way I implemented it means, that on Manola, the slots are uniform in Icons and slot type, but if you click on, it doesn't highlight all mines. But I don't think this is a big issue, since all mines are suited for all slots. If you start a new game, this issue is not present.
WARNING: The activation of this mod in a savegame means, that this savegame now relays on the presence of the mod. If you remove mid playthrough, all mine slots will become iron or gold depending on the region and all opencast resource mines become clay slots. The mines may no longer fit the slot, so you cannot build them any longer. So watch out! If you want to remove the mod, load a savegame from before loading this mod for the first time! Make a save before with a clear name so you can always remember it!

Made as a team effort by Ricky and Taludas!
This mod is combining one of the most anticipated QoL Updates since the release of Anno 1800 concerning Item gameplay - at least for me - with a fully customizable Research Institute. This mod is meant to be tweaked via iModYourAnno Mod Manager. Otherwise you'll get vanilla values for all the features concerning the Research Institute.
- You can now stack every item in the game apart from Quest Items (which are usually unique) to 99 pieces a stack. No longer maintaining a whole fleet to buy a hand full of items from Eli. This should be a huge time saver in long term. Just buy one of each item you want to mass-purchase, then afterwards all other items will be greyed out because of no space left inside your ship. Only the selected items will be buyable and stack inside your ship.
- You can modify nearly every value involved with the Research Institute. From maximum Queue Size, over custom research time and cost config, cost limit for item research, till number of permits granted per research. Best have a look inside iMYA and play around with the numbers to get the full experience.
- You can also customize the Item Transfer Module in every session. Frustrated over the limit of 24 items? No problem, with this mod you can increase it to whatever number you like. You can get rid of the timer until the item is available, too! Includes support for Arctis and Enbesa Modules, if you use those mods.
This mod is (not necessarily) incompatible with all other mods that in any way change the features of the research institute (time, cost, output, etc.) I marked as incompatible the mods I found at Nexus that have a modinfo.json. But there are enough mods that do not have this. So be careful with your mod choice! If you still have some of these mods, my mod will most likely overwrite them, thanks to LoadAfterIds, so don't worry too much!
The little problem which actually isn't one
With this mod enabled you could potentially exploit the expedition feature of the game, since every item inside the holds of your ship counts towards the success probability of the selected expedition. So you could just load a stack of 6 legendary items and never have problems with the "minigame" again. But as you could have stacked ActionItems like the pirate flags before and no one has done that, I believe in you all, that you use this feature wisely and maturely to only not get crazy over buying items at Eli.
This mod is fixing the issue present since GU17 concerning the Ventilator/Fan Factory. The building is sporting a 0.5 tile offset, that made it impossible to be clipped, since the center of the building was off-grid and disrupted the usual clipping mechanic.
If you install this mod and have already built some Fan Factories in your savegame, you will have some graphical issues where street might clip through the building. This can be easily solved by grabbing the building up with the Move-Tool. When placing the building down again, the graphical issue is fixed.
This mod allows for customized Amounts of Influence gained from residences in all sessions. The tweaking can be done via iMYA or by manual asset modification. Standard Values are vanilla. You can also customize the amount of Influence gained for Engineers from the Palace Edict and the amount gained for Obreros/Artistas from the Hacienda Decree. Notice that the values are absolute and won't get influenced by the game setting concerning the amount of Influence gained by residences!
A very simple mod that adds a buff to all buildings with a maintenance cost (GUID=368) that reduces the chance of an explosion by 1000%. So even if you have other buffs or items active in your factory that increase the risk of an explosion, it is very unlikely that it will ever happen again. This mod reduces the annoyance of going through all the sessions to restore the ruins. Have fun and above all, safe building!
A simple mod to synchronize the ingame time of the Day-Night-Cycle to your local PC Time. Notice, that you can't change the time manually anymore, neither is the normal time progression available. To use those features again, disable this mod.
This small mod fixes various texture bugs with DLC vehicle and inhabitant feedbackunits, visible as white textures on certain zoom levels.
