A Survey on Mod Users

Purely for fun could all players who have/do use(d) either library or user-created mods please post below.

This is to get an idea of how many players use mods in their games. This is not anything to do with the recent Metaverse audit so please dont be affraid to come forward :)

I will start by adding my own name to the list as i use nearly all of the mods from the library :HOT: Plus some custom made ones that are still in testing.

I have never used any MODs but I am considering using some political party mods.

Heavily modded. I use probably 90% of them from the library.

I've tried all of the certified mods (in various combos) as well as testing a few I created myself.

I use some of the capital mods and an event pack (don't remember who made them) and of course the four versions of the Diplomats Party.

The only mod I use is the mini-colony ship because of the ability to set the pop slider more easily in the mid-late game. Loaded a couple of others, but don't use them.

In order that I started using them:

1) Mini colony ship
2) Religious and Cultural capitals
3) Sneaky diplomats party
4) Research, Inc. party

Those are the only ones I've tried.

Let's see what we have here in the old mods directory... There's all the mods I've submitted to the library, of course. Except for one. An anomaly that increases ship speed by one move (Slipstream in the library, but the Power has to be changed to 10. for it to work, because of the way the Speed ability works). A whole bunch of .event files, with only one event in each of them. Enhanced Terraforming and NanoTechnology. Everything in the library by Nand1, except for the AP stuff. Instanton TechTree. I don't think I've ever gotten far enough in the game to use that one before winning, actually. The Monstrous Mod. I just put that one in and haven't gotten to use it yet. Malleus' Xeno Religious Thought Mod. Agriculturist and Jedi Council parties. ImplantTechnology. I got that from the unofficial mod site a while back, but I don't see it in the library. The Smuggling tech. The Force Tech Pack. The UP issue where you vote one who gets a new planet, with a Jedi-related description.

I use a small collection of mods I made myself, and none from the library (they don't do what I want).

I'm using Research Inc, New Diplomats, Cultural and Religious Capitals, and the mini-colony ship right now. I have used the Halut Pack also. I think all the mods are great. :CONGRAT:

I have actually built the MiniUniverse and MegaUniverse once, in the AP campaign, scenario 3 when it was still just a few steps short of impossible. I was able to hold off the Korx with mines and other high def, low cost ships until I started building Excaliburs of my own (slower than they were building them, unfortunately). The standoff finally broke when I got the Universal Gateway and MiniUniverse into play, but it still took forever to wade through the sea of Korx Excaliburs.

I had one mod I was working on with a theme similar to what ended up in Altarian Prophecy... I'm working on rewriting now. Most of it, fortunately, didn't get too badly affected, it's just a matter in having to work the new races in, and change a little bit of backstory-ish tech descriptions that I had written.

I tried lots of mods in past.

My favorite was the Star Wars mod.

Right now the only mod I have is the research.inc party.

I am using the Research Inc mod only. I started using the mod a few weeks ago.

I would be interested in knowing about other mods. Your favorite library mods and why they are your favorite.

If that is not hi-jacking the intent of your thread to much DW, it would be good information for mod newbee's like me. :)

Well out of the load of mods i prefer (in no strikt order):
Good/Evil Pack + Saint Pack, because I need (and want) the additional morality events.
Omega + Halut Pack, two reasons: 1. They add a huge amount of new stuff 2. I created them
Some of the additional ships (like Firehawk and Battledefender)

Any more ?

One more that I now like, that I just downloaded, is the "Star Replacement Mod" by turgotZ. It doesn't affect game play, at all, but adds more artistry to game by animating stars.
