<t> Okay, so considering the ammount of views this page has gotten, someone has to have tried it, right? I really don't have much time to work on it dedicatedly, so progress will be slow (unfortunately), but basically everything is up for review and could be subject to change at this point. For ...

The Ergreagd art banks look really awesome! Did you draw all these yourself? I may also have missed something, but what do the 'houses' represent?

Hello, Great ideas on plant family! Is your mod active and wip still? Because i like 2 races from your mod which i would like to add to big project i am working on called Beyond Extended Universe, which stands as possible future megamod to ...

<t> Okay, so I intended to wait until Universa released, but as Azuran is taking his time to make sure that everything is good, I am probably going to release a 'beta' version either tonoght or within the next couple of days to get feedback on the current state of the races (as aside from the Ulint ...

<t> As a 'newb' to modding this game but in the process of working on my own custom races as well, I can't give the best answers, but can give some basic info from what I know.<br/>

It's been basically just free stuff as nothing I've investigated has been threatening or really devastating. Few explosions and a few nothing found here but that's it.

That's going to be an extremely helpful option. This is looking really neat, and you've only shown us the Biases tab!

<r> Thanks for liking the art guys. I did not make them - I just did about a dozen Google Image searches with different parameters, haha - but I am going to do my best to give credit to each of the artists as I release the races - I'm gonna do a reverse-image search on the actual pictures I cropped ...

DW tends to use a very loose method of grouping race families. It is less based on actual science and physiology and more on simple "urgggh dirty bug" methods. If you decide to alter that methodology just be sure to do it for every single race ...

Looking good! Are you getting closer to a stable 1.0 release?

Race 'family' is more a description of their behaviour and similarities, it is not necessarily a description of the genetic heritage. These are species evolved from life that occurred on different planets. We categorize animals as primates or ...

These are amazing. Thanks for uploading them Haree, and thanks, too, to the artist who created them.

A valid point, but on the other side of the token, not all primates are necessarily humanoids, at least in the way that the game portrays them as. Humanoids are Humans and ...

Reserved just in case.

Also, the image above isn't showing up for me, but should still be seen if you right-click to ivew it. If that isn't working, let me know so I can swap it out.

<r> These Galactopedia entries are up for review and updates (such as fixing grammatical errors in the Ulint article or removing the hybrid mention in the Sycha article as that was used for the Myodocks instead, as examples), being this early in the mod stage, so if anybody wishes to help me improve ...

I'm enjoying it. I had never heard of the game until shortly before Universe released but I really like it now that I've had a chance to play and mess with it.
