Hello Mayors!
We are excited to share the first iteration of the Asset Mods implementation for Cities: Skylines II!
This patch contains a beta update to the Editor that supports asset mods. This will require an update across the base game and all DLCs to support the new way of asset handling, meaning you will see an update to all previous content released for Cities: Skylines II. This update does not change anything about the content in the DLC, just making them compatible with the new Patch.
This patch basically means that your favorite modders can now start sharing mods, and you will soon see them popping up in the Paradox Mods! We have seen many of the creations that have been worked on already, but it might take a while before they are visible in the mods library.
Before you start downloading any new assets from Paradox Mods, make sure the base game and all DLCs are fully updated, and that the game has restarted. Downloading and trying to play with mods before you have updated might cause unexpected issues, so a minor update and a restart are something that we recommend!
If you are a modder, looking at making your own assets for Cities: Skylines II after the release of this version of the Editor, we have added a few new guides on our Wiki that should help you get started!
We’re very excited to see what you will make for the game. We will be sharing our favorites, and please send us yours, too!
