I havent played this game in a while and i want to start again. Recommended mods tend to change over time. So is there a list of recommended mods?

No Intro can be done through steam by adding SKIPINTRO into the Start parameters of the game. No need for a mod. (unless you use Microsoft Store 11)
How is "No more plants" not mandatory to you?

Seems like i got most of them already. Some of them doesnt really seems recommended at all. I cant imagine playing with cube fish. That is so ugly.

I use SKIPINTRO. What is the difference between SKIPINTRO and NOINTRO? Is there any difference?

Any version of small trees, no useless plants and no snow are the only ones I would call mandatory.
Grid mod used to be mandatory, but it got added to the settings now

What AoE2:DE Mods do you have installed?

I'm curious what useful mods you all have installed. There are a bunch out there that look similar. Are some better than others? Did you create a mod that only a few people are using? Is there one that everybody has that's NOT good? Do you admit to trying age of cubes? Here's what I've got so...

I only have small trees. I think I have grid mod enabled when building stuff, but that's about it... Don't know why you'd need all those other mods, or even what they do for that matter.

As a sidenote, I do sometimes accidentaly place towers in range of tc's, so you could make an argument for the range indicator thing, but I just don't like it. If we're going for total optimalisation, you can just as well install cube mod or something...

That is an old list. Things like these change a lot over time in my experience. Once in a while someone make a better version of an existing mod. So the new mod become popular, while the old mod got outdated.

Recently found a mod for smaller berrie bushes. Sth like "small bushes". Incredibly helpful to see the shape of the berries and for quickwalling vills, especially on hills.

Saw it first in saymynames stream.

The mod "silent terrain" is not working. Anyone knows another mod to get rid of the annoying crickets?
