Mass Effect: Beyond the Worlds

Beyond the Worlds uses optimized 2K textures, but we also have a 4K texture pack available here! Brought to you by the creators of Mass Effect: Beyond the Relays, Beyond the Worlds is a standalone release of the planet class overhaul that has been completed as part of the upcoming 1. 0 release of ME:BtR. BtW is heavily inspired by the planetary overhaul mods that have come before, and as development on ME:BtR progressed it became apparent that in order for us to fully present the Mass Effect Galaxy in the way we wished, we could not rely wholly on just integrating other mods that have come before, and from this realization Beyond the Worlds was born. Functionally, Beyond the Worlds follows the approach of Real Space: New Frontiers - and in fact the majority of Real Space 3. 8, as well as some smaller parts of New Frontiers are included in Beyond the Worlds, primarily graphical assets to supplement our own. For those of you unfamiliar with Real Space: New Frontiers, it is quite simple - instead of adding a slew of new and unique planet classes, New Frontiers and Beyond the Worlds rely on unique planetary modifiers referred to as subclasses. These subclass modifiers control everything from habitability to the planets actual look. Anyone familiar with Mass Effect most likely will be familiar with the lore surrounding turian and quarian biology, where they are based on dextro-amino acids instead of levo. In order to properly present this, every base planet class now has a dextro-variant, and to also better represent that some species may prefer higher gravity worlds instead of them just being a negative modifier, worlds that are larger than 20 at galaxy generation now spawn as a high gravity variant of that class, allowing more flexibility in species habitability and preferences. These few adjustments are accompanied by an extensive graphical overhaul of a planet's graphics - each planet class now contains at least 3 surface texture variations, and factoring in that each
