Civilization Selection Bonus Tooltips

Description
IMPORTANT UPDATE: The new patch (8/21/2013) seems to have broken loading this mod with the Mod menu. The only way to load this mod is to set it as default with the method below by copying the zStuff folder to the Asset\UI\ folder.

The new patch will no longer load UI mods before entering the game, therefore the only way to use this mod is to set it as default. The normal installation instruction has been removed. Achievements should still be available with this method. - 9/9/2013


This mod add more detail tooltips to the Unique Units, Unique Buildings, and Unique Improvements for each civilization during the civilization selection process when starting a game.

Make this mod default without having to load in mod section:
- Subscribe to mod.
- Go to your mod folder.
- Default mod folder is: Documents\My Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 5\MODS\
- Copy the \zStuff\ folder in the \Civilization Selection Bonus Tooltips (v 1)\ folder to the Assets\UI\ folder in your Civ 5 installation.
- Default location for steam is SteamApps\common\Sid Meier's Civilization V\Assets\UI\

v3:
- Added promotion details to unique units.
- Added stat compare to the base unit/building.
- Added more tooltips to improvements.

v2:
Tested to work for vanilla, GodsAndKings, and BraveNewWorld

FAQ:
Does it affect acheivements?
It should not. If you are worried, save the game once the map is generated, then reload it without this mod.

quick question because im having a problem. I installed it into my UI folder, and the mods works fine in singleplayer but when i tried to use it in a modded game the game would not let me scroll past like the first 4 civs so i had to choose through advanced options. Do you know how to fix this?

Is there an easy way to localize this mod by myself? I'd like to have a Russian version.

This mod does work, even with custom civs! You have to follow his special instructions but it does work! Thanks man, you've made my life so much easier I can't thank you enough
