Eridani IV - The Most Deadly World
I made this mod to test my combat skills and for enjoyment and decided, why not upload it onto nexus? Any of you guys want a planet that is really dangerous? Sort of like your own Predator or Klingon proving grounds? Well try this out!
Technical Background:
I have changed the fauna on planet Eridani IV to be a nightmare. This planet now has some of the scariest spiders and bugs from the game. They are a lot bigger and deadly too, also added terromorphs. I have tried to scale all the fauna to your level so you don’t need to be level 80. You will need powerful weapons and armor, I made it brutal by design.
The Backstory (irrelevant unless you’re into immersion):
The UC military has been experimenting on Eridani IV since the colony wars! Eridani IV has been a vessel to test different biological weapons in the UC Xenowarfare division. Top secrete UC clearance will tell you that there was a disaster in one of their top secrete science facilities. All the experimental weapons got free from the facility and the entire project was abandoned as well as the planet.

UPDATE: 12/13/2024 - Version 1. 3
1. 3 Version Notes:
-Version 1. 3 is more deadly than its predecessor v1. 2. Most creatures are a bit more balanced but very strong and will kill you quickly if you're not careful. As always, you will need powerful weapons and armor to survive.
-Terromorphs are now deadly, they will one shot you. My best strategy so far has been to kite them using a powerful rocket launcher, I sill die a lot at lvl 55.
-Although I have tested the mod being level 3, I suggest being at least 30-40 level range to have a fighting chance...
-I have cleaned up the mod quite a bit by making a new plugin file from the original version and just using the creatures that I have put in the mod itself. This is why this newer version is smaller in size but still just as relevant.

Happy Hunting (and don’t get lost in the woods lol).
You may play with and modify this mod to your heart’s desire.
If you like what I’ve made please give me feedback whether positive or negative. I’d really love to
