Fame-based Era Thresholds for Humankind is a mod designed for Windows that modifies the game's era star goals. By replacing the traditional era-based system with a Fame-based system, this mod requires players to achieve higher Fame values to earn stars, creating a more balanced gameplay experience. This adjustment reduces the tendency to snowball, ensuring that players face a more level competition as they progress through the game.

In addition to the Fame system change, the mod also alters the base star thresholds to one million for each star. This modification ensures players cannot enter a new era with pre-accumulated stars, allowing for extended gameplay within each era. It's important to note that the Scientist Star remains unchanged from the vanilla version, maintaining its original mechanics.
