Mod Index (Categorized)

[Alex]

This post is intended as a list of all mods with downloads available. To install a mod, download it and unzip it into the "mods" directory. On Windows, it's in the installation directory. On Mac, it's right inside the application package - right-click on the application and select "Show Package Contents" to see it. On Linux, it's in the starsector directory. You can then select which mod(s) you want to run with in the launcher. Mods are listed in chronological order.

Vanilla-Balanced These mods represent factions or additions which we feel are pretty close to balanced with the vanilla game. New ships will match up well against existing ships, with things not being too overpowered.	Non-Vanilla Balanced These mods represent factions or additions which may not be particularly balanced with the vanilla game, or might just be trying to give a different balance altogether. Maybe overpowered, or something just a bit out there, but certainly no less entertaining.	Total Conversion These mods have been specifically designed without any consideration at all for the vanilla Starsector universe, or at the least will be quite far removed from it.

Let us know if we're missing any, OR if we got your intention wrong and you would prefer we shift your mod to a different section.

Important Note: Also, if you want your mod moved from the modding forum into this Mods specialized subforum, PM any of the admins. Note that you'll need a download available generally, and also tested your mod to the point where you have a reasonable expectation of it working on the latest version of the game.

I've just noticed, I can edit this! I feel a bit like spiderman, with these unexpected new powers.

I'll have a whizz through and make sure this is a bit more up to date, save the devs to do some real work

Just wanted to say thank you for updating this list

Yay! Helpful, benevolent and contributing moderators!

I suppose Thiiei's Ascendency can be added to the list, as it's got a playable demo now.

Thanks! Added.

would it be posible to get a list of which mods work together? i love them all but cant work out which ones are compatable with which 

That's a great idea, I just don't know how we can do it yet. So many mods are being updated / improved so quickly that it's kind of a moving target. I'm sure you aren't alone in thinking that would be useful, because I'd like that, too! Once things settle a little (depending on how quickly we get another release), I'm sure we'll get something put together. Maybe a Google Docs spreadsheet, or something similar. Once the game stabilizes, we'll have a wiki and all of that can go there.

I have a feeling we'll end up seeing super-mods being constructed at some point that combine popular mods into prepackaged joy (Mount & Blade fans know what I'm talking about). I've already seen some clever merges showing up.

Aren't these mods fantastic, though? Every time I see a new one I'm impressed by the creativity and cool ideas -- and awesome artwork!

[Alex]

I thought the bug with the mac build was fixed?

It is as far as I know. You mean the one re: where the mods go? I remember testing that prior to release and it working.

[Dante80]

Each mod comes in a zip or rar archive file. You have to extract the contained folder into your starfarer/mods/ folder, and then select the mod you need via the game launch menu.

two of the problems you might have:

1. you put the archived file directly into the mods folder.
2. you extract the contained mod folder into a new folder, thus making the game unable to see it.


Hope that helps, cheers...^^

Nice work guys, this looks great!

[Cordacc]

well my old mod would fit under campaign integrated, not sure about balance though, not super op like IDF and the only really op one is the big cap ship, but not as much playtesting as other mods.

Generally if you're not sure about balance, and haven't really playtested, you're not considered vanilla balance. Achieving vanilla balance and maintaining it typically takes up a significant amount of a modders time. So for now I'll place you in Non-Vanilla. If it changes later on, it's not a problem to shuffle you over.

[Schmitski]

is there a mod that increases the campaign fleet size? i tend to find that a fleet size of 100 is too smal for my likeing in the campaign... :p

[Trylobot]

Here you go! Fleet Size Mod

I've also added this mod to the list for others.

[K-64]

Don't suppose you could add my mod, Trade Scavengers to the list, could you?

Added!

[DelicateTask]

Can we get Thaago's Restock mod added to this list? No one should have to live without it.

Listed.
