Have you seen screen shots of fancy pots, a different greenhouse or nursery, and cool-looking flowers? Those are all from game modifications (mods) that have been produced by the very talented members of our community here. It's easy to put those mods into your game, and they are some of the goodies that you'll find in our Plant Tycoon Guides Section! You'll find everything from non-spoiler Getting Started Walkthrough and strategy tips , to interesting graphic mods, to complete breeding guides, and even how to back up your Plant Tycoon savegame files. There are several pages in the guide, so make sure to check out each page!

It's short for "modifications" and, for our games, usually involves editing the game's image files to create a new "look" for many elements of the game. You can see examples of game modifications here.

Borg's guide has been updated with pictures, prices, and a 4-generation breeding tool.
sfrose has developed a breeding and mutation guide, complete with instructions and explanations.

Hmmm. Thinking to myself here on what areas could be modded ... The plants themselves, plus the seeds, shouldn't be touched. The graphics are lovely already, and any changes would only confuse things.
The Main screen - perhaps some changes to the design of the pots? I imagine the insects would be a difficult job to alter. Backgrounds to the snapshots can be changed easily.
The seeds screen - possibly some changes to the colours of the seed trays? The actual layout couldn't really be altered.
The Collection screen - maybe a different background?
The Nursery screen - changes to the background? Visitor's clothes? Some of the bought garden "furniture"?
It would have to be a very good mod indeed to improve in any way on the artwork already supplied!
