    Most do, some do partially, some wont just show up, a few cause a crash.
    most of the new ones work, if not its stated in mod description.
    for older ones you can check reviews (nowadays some ppl tend to rate this :bored:) or comments
    theres also is a list (but i think its not 100% trustworthy) for compatible mods somewhere here in this forum.
    in case u are not sure wheter they do work or not u just gotta try them out (preferably one after another in a test city, not your regular one)

    in any case make sure to install community mod first (from xln, not steam!) and to get montys shader fix for old mods

    I was going to carry on building up a list but as pretty much all the old mods work I stopped.
    I think a better list is ones that don't work.

    In short, sorta but no.

    There's some features of mods that are entirely not supported such as shader mods because of the different DX versions. I've noticed a lot of animation files from CXL breaks CXXL, though I don't have the modding knowledge to give you an explanation or even confirm if it's all animations or just some.

    Most mods that you would want from CXL have been updated for CXXL, with very few exceptions aside from maybe maps honestly.

    If you really want to bring a CXL mod over you can check the comments, usually someone either says it works for CXXL, or asks if it is, eliciting a response from the author.

    Should you not find an answer in the comments, slowly start adding your desired mods, one at a time, checking if the game breaks or not each time. Don't just copy over your old CXL mods folder or your game will break.
