📋 About This Mod

NOTICE:

I have made the decision to no longer support this mod for future versions of X4 due do constant breaking changes with major updates.

If you want to continue using this mod make sure to run any of the compatible versions (8. X).

If you want to play on newer versions of the game make sure to uninstall the mod and to make a cleansave before updating your game.

Description:

This mod adds more jobs and wharfs/shipyards to the Scaleplate Pact, Hatikvah Trade League, Yaki and Alliance of the Word.

The factions will not act as "full" faction, this mod is just to add a bit more life to them and the galaxy.

Hatikvah will be busy mining and trading while the Scaleplate Pact will pirate and smuggle more. SCA will sell licenced gear to anyone willing to pay!

The Yaki will show some more activity as well and you may encounter explorers for the Alliance.

This mod also adds new themed gamestarts for: Yaki, Hatikvah, Scaleplate.

FAQ:

Why does it require SVE?

Because the factions make use of SVEs ships. In theory you can use it without SVE, but you will miss out on the faction jobs (and get your debug log spammed with errors).

Does it work with VRO?

Yes, simply download and activate the VRO patch for SVE.

Any future plans?

Yes. I think.

Does this make SCA and HAT into full factions?

No! This mod only adds wharfs/shipyards and jobs/ships to the factions. Useful if you want to have a pirate playthrough.

Anything special about the factions?

Not really. SCA sells ships and equipment without requiring any licences, so you can get your hands on limited equipment...
