Distant Worlds 2 Refreshed (DW2R) Mod Collection
21 artiklar
Beskrivning
***Works with Atuuk/Wekkarus DLC***

The Refreshed Resources mod replaces the default resource art assets with new images and colored backgrounds for easier reference.

<<< AI TRIGGER WARNING >>> Mod author is a dirty human sellout who uses generative AI platforms to generate aspects of mod content.

/========== CHANGE LOG ==========\
  • v1.2.0 -- 31 October 2024 -- Added two new resources from Shakturi DLC
  • v1.1.0 -- 04 January 2024 -- Removed gray backgrounds for construction resources. Generated new images for some resources and shrank down all pics to help with readability.
  • v1.0.0 -- 03 January 2024 -- Initial Release

/========== COMPATIBILITY ==========\
Everything I know of. The mod only replaces the original art. No .xml files edited.

XL users: No conflicts. Just load XL last.

/========== IMPORTANT NOTE ==========\
There is a quirk with the current build of DW2 that requires a full-game restart after downloading and enabling a mod. So be sure you exit out of the game after turning the mod on, then re-launch DW2.

/========== CONTENTS ==========\
The original resource art for DW2 sometimes was hard to decypher. Was something a metal, or a gem, or a luxury resource? It can be hard to tell.

Moreover, there was no easy way to know the function of a specific resource. Did a resource add income to a colony? Or happiness? This mod adds colored backgrounds to help players more quickly recognize resource bonuses.

No backgrounds


Resources without a background are used in construction of ships and stations. They don't have any colony bonuses.

Blue backgrounds


Resources with blue backgrounds give a bonus to Colony Development.

Green backgrounds


Resources with a green background give bonuses to Colony Development AND Colony Income.

Magenta backgrounds


Resources with a magenta background give bonuses to Colony Development AND Population Growth.

Purple backgrounds


Resources with purple backgrounds give bonuses to Colony Development AND Colony Happiness.

Yellow backgrounds


Resources with yellow backgrounds are Super Luxury Resources that give BIG bonuses to Colony Development and a bonus to at least one other attribute.

/========== HOW TO USE THIS MOD ==========\
  1. Subscribe to Refreshed Resources here in steam workshop.
  2. Launch DW2.
  3. Within the game, In the Modifications menu, enable Refreshed Resources.
  4. <<< IMPORTANT >>> You must EXIT and RESTART Distant Worlds 2 before the mod will work. (There's currently a quirk in DW2 where a whole-game restart is required whenever a mod adds/changes art-assets. When this is remedied, this step will be removed from these descriptions.)
  5. After re-loading DW2, start a new game and enjoy!

/========== OTHER STUFF ==========\
Hey! I'm salemonz, the mod author.

The Distant Worlds 2 Refreshed mod series is my attempt to increase my skills with generative AI applications, 3D modeling and photo-editing programs.

I'm just a dad gamer with limited time for hobbies who enjoys tinkering with his games. I hope these mods add to your enjoyment of DW2!

GREAT IDEA! Good Work. Thanks

@zoot666 -- good to hear!

Yeah this mod simply swaps out art from vanilla...no changes to any code or setup or anything. Should be one of the most compatible mods that can be :D

Great mod! Working fine for me on 1.3.0.2 beta channel with Mordechai's XL Mod Beta.

Crashes on galaxy generation. Cheers

@Tanaka -- I'll take a look. Does it crash upon galaxy generation? Crashes on start-up?
Tanaka 6 apr @ 14:41 
So I only have the refreshed mods enabled and one of them is crashing the game with the new DLC not sure which?
salemonz  [skapare] 4 apr @ 12:09 
Looks like no new resources with new DLC (Atuuk & Weekarus). No updates needed.

@AnalFury -- Thanks, friend! Will do :D

@Snaxxor -- Appreciate it! Yeah I stole the "colored background" idea from DasTactic and his DW1 mod. Happy to keep the theme going!
