So it works great for me, except whenever I start a mod (either via in-game or by manually editing the enabledmods folder), I can't see the main game menu of any mod. With no mods enabled, I can see it just fine.

Is burnstrobe really that giant of an ***?

Anyone figure out how to mod expansion disapproval? Most annoying feature in the game.

Thank you, it seems to work. Just have to change the file name.

I have no clue how to do that lol, I just knew from prior paradox games what I could change in the defines and how. Most likely you can't though, I haven't seen anything that indicated manual map making abilities.

Holy crap this impressive.

Now the threats: how dare you! This will make star destroyers go into atmosphere, and they can't do th...*watches rogue one*...nevermind.

Holy crap, it's going to fill up the entire star system map....
Good.

Putting Petroglyph to shame

Hover the mouse over the center of the ship, then hold right mouse button and move the cursor in the direction you want. A little green arrow should pop up in that direction. Slow, but it works normally.

So the S in SMG is back? That great.

I would like to respectfully note though that what really made this mod stand out was the strategic and technical complexity of it, along with the difficulty. Please don't change this...

I honestly prefer the one from the mod, I'm not sure what petroglyph was thinking with this one.

Not working

Hm, thanks I'll try that. Saw that last guy's attempt to do this, but I think the code has changed since 1.0 cause it didn't work when I tried it.

Could do the Scarif space map like Awakening of the Rebellion did some of their maps, with a map-wide planet background. Not sure how you would get a shield gate prop in there though...

For the Mand'alor!

Thank god

Anyone figure out how to mod the auto-explore research for the start? They said it was going to be easy...

Modded games I play:

Rome Total War
Medieval II Total War
Star Wars Empire at War: FOC
Star Wars Battlefront II
Distant Worlds: Universe
Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion
Skyrim
Supreme Ruler Ultimate
Crusader Kings II
Europa Universalis IV
Stardrive
Stellaris

Stellaris for sure

Very nice indeed.

Crash trying to play single player:

Windows 10, Steam SOSE:R 1.82 (clean install, checked integrity), LAA Installed properly (used fine with SOGE/Ascendancy/SOA2). Flood is off, only non-standard settings are double fleet size, allied victory, and quick start. Did not add new fonts, I don't want to change my base install. Version 0.75.1 worked perfectly fine for me, I literally deleted it and installed 0.80.

I can start the game fine with the mod activated, navigate through menu to single player match start, and start. It goes through the load screen fine, fully loads...and crashes about 3 seconds after loading, with the (I assume) modified LAA generic warning and a minidump. Tried about a 6-7 times, same result each time regardless of which faction I start with or which map.

Now the really weird part: I installed and started it on Dev mode to see if I could troubleshoot it myself, and besides the 300 errors it throws up during start-up and loading, it didn't error out after starting, and I actually was able to play for a few minutes before I gave up.

Ideas?

Having this same problem, I've used LAA for years now for other mods and games

Looks awesome!

When is stardock going to get off their butts and release the final v1.83? There's been no news whatsoever from them for months now...

No no, I just need to get the .alo viewer working, this is for a different project requiring top-down views of starship models. I can do it in game but it's a pain to get them without shadows and other discolorations.

I would really, really appreciate that. I've been trying to get it or something else to work for a couple years now, and I was thinking I would have to teach myself how to use 3ds Max.

Last I heard it couldn't handle custom models and just showed bright green skeletons

What viewer/editor is that in the first screen?

Man, I hope we get 1.0 for Christmas ;)

Do you know how to fix the .alo viewer so that it shows skins too? I've been fooling around with it and all it does is show me ugly bright green models...and google has failed me.
