📋 About This Mod
Unfortunately, due to the complex nature of managing multiple armors from different mods and their requirements, this is a "Lite" version of the Star Wars Genesis faction overhaul.
Major Differences:
-
[]Genesis Militia armors are more fleshed out featuring camo variants of Bonepunk's armors[/]
[]Genesis Rebel Alliance armors are more fleshed out with armors from Crozzbow[/]
[]Genesis features additional factions such as the Imperial Army, Trade Federation, Swoop Gang; as well upcoming factions such as the Black Sun and Zann Consortium[/]
The factions present in these POI's share the same faction as their city ones. So killing stormtroopers will give you a UC bounty. Killing Rebels will give you a freestar bounty, etc. The NPCs in this are largely unleveled too, meaning they are level 1. I refrained from giving any crazy armor values to any armors as most of it is just clothing so this should all be compatible with vanilla balance setting
I know it's a bit of a dirty tease to do this, but I unfortunately don't have the time to maintain and update two versions of this mod as my priority is Genesis. This mod will largely be left as-is and is open permission though. I highly recommend using this as a template for any faction expansion mods you wish to make, as it includes fixes to many bugs that other faction expansion mods don't account for (paid mods btw). You are also free to make expansions and patches to this. Simply pick an existing standalone faction that I've added (I recommend Stormtroopers), copy all the records as a new record for your new faction, then make a new keyword like the other existing ones and add that keyword to each poi to get them to spawn there. Add each NPC to the human hostile leveled npc record with a condition based on that keyword, and you're good to go. I know it sounds complicated, but its on the easy end.
Requirements:
Freestar Rebels
Star Wars Gangs
SW Spacer Overhaul
Star Wars Blasters
Conflicts:
This is compatible with the POI mods I have in my modlist, such as POI Cooldowns, Dark Universe Takeover, and Batten's Shipwrecks. However, both Dark Univers and Batten will need patches for the new factions to spawn there. Every other POI mod that fundamentally changes vanilla POIs like POI variations and Desolation are use at your risk. Do let me know though if they work fine
