📋 About This Mod
MORE CRYSTALS!
Crystals spawn rate in this game is just awful, what if you could change this value?
Here comes More Crystals!
This mod will edit crystals' spawn rates making the spawnrate fully configurable through my "SpawnRateEditor" potentially making them a real money farm.
This can almost be considered a cheat since it will make you filthy rich!
Features
- You can decide to tweak crystal rarities by installing one of the different mod files or by downloading my "SpawnRateEditor".
(IT STILL REQUIRES ONE OF THE MAIN PACKAGES INSTALLED)
Available Variants
Vanilla Rarity
Pre 3. 0 Rarity
No Purple Crystals
More Rare Crystals
Just White Crystals
These Variants, except the Pre 3. 0, have 100% Crystal SpawnRates, but you can change it with the editor
Many thanks to Shuruna for this
COMPATIBILITY
This mod is NOT compatible with any mod that edits objectspawnrules.xml (like Crystal Rarities)
Perfectly compatible with Crystal Miner and Crystal Finder
INSTALLATION
- Download the mod variant you wish to use- Extract the archive
- Copy the "More Crystals!" folder into "<your path to X4>/X4 Foundations/extensions/"
(Default path is: "C:\Steam\SteamApps\common\X4 Foundations\extensions")

- Start the game and press "Extensions" and check if the mod is shown and active
More Crystals is a gameplay mod for X4: Foundations that overhauls crystal spawn rates, making them configurable via a separate SpawnRateEditor tool. It offers several rarity variants, from vanilla to no purple crystals, and can turn crystal mining into a lucrative money farm. Compatible with Crystal Miner and Crystal Finder, but not with mods editing objectspawnrules.xml.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 579 endorsements and over 23k downloads—clearly fills a need.
- Gives you real control over crystal spawn rates, turning a tedious grind into a potential money farm.
- Multiple variants let you pick your preferred rarity curve, from vanilla to crystal-rich.
⚠️ Cons
- Not compatible with any mod that edits objectspawnrules.xml, like Crystal Rarities—so check your load order.
- Last updated in December 2020, so it might not be tested with the latest X4 patches.
- The SpawnRateEditor is an external tool, so you'll need to fiddle with it separately if you want custom rates.
For X4 players who are tired of hunting for crystals and want to turn mining into a reliable income stream. Also great for sandbox players who enjoy tweaking game economies. Skip if you prefer vanilla balance or use mods that alter spawn rules.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you install one of the main variant packages first—the SpawnRateEditor alone won't work.
- After copying the folder to extensions, launch X4 and check the Extensions menu to confirm the mod is active.
- If you're using other mods that touch objectspawnrules.xml, expect conflicts—stick to the compatible ones listed.
