[Mod] ST: New Horizons: A Stellaris Total Conversion

[ducevans]

Just a quick note as this Mod seems to be growing in size, scope and general awesomeness...should this thread be moved into a sub folder so there can be clear threads for Bug report, screenshot/artwork, suggestion...etc?

hehe...we want it, push that msg to the forum mods

Caitians were requested... and so they're added. Showing them here in their Starfleet uniforms, but they have non-Starfleet clothes as well for when outside the Federation:

 

[Lucidnonsense]

Very nice, can't wait to see them in game. How goes the xindi events

 

[Grinsel]

the events are finished...its not implemented so far.

 

[Walshicus]

Yeah... Given the fail effect, we need to make sure that it's not too hard.


If you guys want to see specific races added to the game feel free to request here. Might not be done immediately but always willing to take a look.

@Walshicus
Saurian race ?

 

[Walshicus]

Hmm... simple enough I think!

 

[Grinsel]

http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Saurian

which exactly ?

 

[xGinoCazinox]

I think http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Selay and http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Saurian_(species) are two famous missed saurian races

 

[Lucidnonsense]

Both of those look like good choices.
About how many races could realistically be in the mod?
Also I think the Medusans and Melkot could use some love.

The Ekonians from "patterns of force" might work as a primitive fanatic collectivist society.It could potentially be interesting for the democratic and individualistic federation to try and peacefully integrate a species which finds autocracy more natural and fitting for them.(As well as the autocratic galactic powers trying to get to them first)

The Ekosians can actually show up as a pre-warp species on M43 Alpha. Only in the alpha/beta map, though, and the spawn is randomised, so you don't get them in every game.

 

[Bananabus]

My apologies

 

[mash84]

Hi. Maybe also

El-Aurian ( close to the borg
Sona


Tzenketi (like they are in the books)

We can have quite a few more 'minor' races in the game given how little space they use with small borders.

Generally I'm looking for species that need additional artwork. Human clone species that have unique clothes could work too.

 

[mash84]

The Tzenketi could be a major race in the same area as
Bajor
Cardassian
Ferengi
They would block Bajor from expending to fast.

The Tzenketi never really appear in the show, they are only mentioned. Though the Kzinti appear in the animated series, which if I remember correctly, is considered canon.

 

[Walshicus]

Kzinti "canon" status is pretty... confused. It's why we're using Caitians.

It is quiet confusing, apparently plans were made to have them in season 5 of enterprise, but that never happened.
