When you play with mod you are in offline mode and the DLCs are only available when you are online. So you have to use AnnoCookie to play with mod online or the DLC-buildings dissapear.

Do you have build the normal streets underwater on the ground? The harbour street is only ornamental. It's a bit difficult to build because you cannot really see what you do underwater but there is no other way for a harbour city :(

And I only tried shortly to play multiplayer with mod and this worked without desync. But I do not have this done over a long time. So I don't know what there could be the problem.

Sounds like you installed Anno 2070 fresh and do not have started the game before you installed the mod. Anno has to run after installation once online - only then you can play in offline mode later and with a mod it allways start in offline mode so there is the problem with this endless login screen.

And the mod is made for both - Anno 2070 and Deep Ocean. With main game only all AddOn-Content is deactivated but a lot of changes are ingame.

The ark is an online feature of Anno 2070. So it's not available in offline mode. But with AnnoCookie it's possible to to play with mod online and there you'll have your ark.

No it's not possible. The Game checks if both have the same version. When he wants to join your game there will be a message with an ansynchron game data error.

There are a lot of good ideas, but unfortunatly the most ideas cannot be done. It's not possible to change the GUI of Anno 2070 and so we can never add there new missions or scenarios. Also a lot of these buildings seems to be not possible. We can only do smaller changes.

No, we do not want to add infantery, but there are a lot of new ships, planes and with the next update also drones for having new ways to fight. We thought about the problems and so there are much more options to destroy or hijack your enemy.

With a mod installed anno 2070 goes to offline mode so there you do not have the ark. But with the tool AnnoCookie it is possible to play online with mod, there you have your ark.

The visible roads in harbour cities are only ornamental stuff and do not have any function. To build cities it is nessecary to build normal streets underwater. Here is a guide how to do this: Anno2170-arrc.de

I've heard from users that they have played in Multiplayer together. But only when all players have the same mod version installed it is possible to play multiplayer.
In general Anno 2070 is set to offline mode when a mod is detected. The tool AnnoCookie allow you to play with mod installed online, it is also available on our homepage.

From wich country do you come? I've had some mails where users from asia have problems because they can't access the homepage. Seems to be locked generally there. You could try to use a proxy site like "hide my ***" or something like that.

Which url you have tried? I cannot see any problems now. Maybe the server had a short downtime, it's only a free hoster :)

It's not possible to change the game mechanic of the AIs - they will allways cheat and do not have problems with materials to build houses, ships or something else.

The mod doesn't add new AIs, it is only possible to get back AIs on a map. With the AI Shipyard you can build an ship of for example Tilda and when she find an island she will settle there and grow when there are enough islands free.

No the mod doesn't do something with these effects in post card view and until now there is nothing in work to change it.
We have at the moment enough to do with our new underwater city and fixing quest bugs in campaign because of the changed buildingmenu and new buildings.

When playing with mods Anno is allways offline because of the modding detector. But with the tool AnnoCookie it is possible to play with a mod online.

Hello,

the easiest way is to build a Harbour City Center and place the Homes in the water with 1 block distance to build a street. Then you have to use a normal road to build the streets. You will not really see them, they are underwater on the ground. The Harbour Streets are only a ornamental building and do not have any function.

We never found another solution, so it's a bit hard to build a functional city in the harbour area. That's why there are also harbour cities as ornamental building - for people who only want to have an optical effect in their harbour.

Here is a guide to show how to build streets in harbour:

Sometimes people try to install the mod to the anno folder in documents where savegames and screenshots are saved, so the mod would not work too. Make sure you install it to the game directory where you can find the anno5.exe

When you installed the mod into your game directory: does the game update files when you start it?

Sometimes the installer isn't able to rename the autopatcher.exe and when you start all changes from the mod will be overwritten.

Try to install the mod again and rename the autopatcher.exe in the game directory into another name.

Hope it helps :)

Well, you're right this is a bug. I've tested it and also could not build a city center in the firt mission of the campaign.

The mod was created for continous games. In the campaign is a smaller buildingmenu used so there should be the problem.
I'm sorry. At the moment the best would be to uninstall the mod to play campaign I think.

We'll try to fix it in the next version, but to look at each mission will need a lot of time.

Hello,

in general your way to bring the texts into the russion version was right. When you rename it, you also have to go into the rda to rename the eng into rus in the loca folder. That should work I think.
But so you insert all english texts. Isn't it easier to change the game to english?

In Anno 2070 it isn't possible to insert new 3D models. In Anno 1404 it was possible with Granny3D I read, but now Related Designs has an own file extension for their 3D models. So nobody found a way to work with them.

Thank you very much!

The two submarines should be in the tech military shipyard.

Which version of AnnoCookie you have tried? Sometimes the version 0.30 doesn't work so try the 0.32 maybe.

I think there is no difference if you start anno in steam or uplay-launcher. AnnoCookie only needs the runnig game to work.

I do not have Anno in steam, so when you test it, I would like to hear if everything works as intended with steam :)

We've translated all texts so when you play with an english version all new texts are in english.

I've tried another tip too. When you want to build a building in harbour area and this area blocked bug appears, there is sometimes the "broken" building marked in dark red. When I try to build at the east side of your island, all of your shipyards on the south coast where marked. When I build in the south, the warehouse in the east is marked. It's a really strange bug of Anno I think...
