Hi, Distant Worlds has been one of my favorite game since I started playing in 2011. Back in 2016, I had a mod with 30 additional races (there was a limit of 50 shipsets). In 2023, I started working on an updated version of my mod for Distant Worlds 2. I learned how to use blender and stride. Kevin ...

Hi I have created the Eldar race. They are a reclusive race that seeks beauty, might and glory. I have modified a minimal number of files, so it should not interfere with your other mods.

Thanks for the sneak peak.

<t> From what I can gather, you can select an individual ship from the bottom interface, which is nice. Selectioning a ship in DW was sometimes somewhat difficult. I'm excited for more quality of life improvement like this.<br/> <br/> As someone else noted, the planet's graphic looks nice and ships'...

Thanks for the update.
