You have to press the Start button to get your ship tokens, as described in the notebook

So, maybe I'm just blind, but are there no tokens for the Cargo Pod and Armour Plating outfits? I found the mods, but I can't find those two anywhere.

Blackhole (sector tiles) fix from Wasabi earlier

When you load this mod you should get a prompt for the missing asset. Replace the URL with this: https://chry.me/tts/misc/new_blackhole_test.unity3d

this mod kinda works. But it has wrong Relics and Exploration tokens.

You can take right Relicks from there

Mix it and play

I also think its broken. I cant get solo mode to works. I also go an error saying asset bundle couldn't load or something like that.

Is this broken now? Can't ge the sector tiles to load at all.

mod is broken?

If someone has the time and knowledge, please repair the shader error for the Assetbundle material arcane. It causes the solo cards to be washed out (along with any other custom object). It would be much appreciated.

Also, there is a problem with the exploration tiles and relic tokens. Some are missing, and there are too many others.(?)

Thanks for putting this together, and thanks to Wasabi for providing an easy fix. Much appreciated, guys. Thank You.

As the host, I was able to see the Lost Sector tile, but my friend only saw a wooden cube. He was unable to right click the wooden cube and apply a custom texture. I tried saving the Lost Sector tile as a saved object, emailing the files to him, and having him load a saved object, but it still showed as a wooden cube.

Anyone have any other ideas?

Thank you so much for this mod! I own a physical copy of Xia + Embers + M&P but hadn't bought the official TTS DLC for Xia cuz I won't play it without the expansions. Now I'm happy to give Cody my money. :)

@Wasabi Thanks - your solution including the updated link worked perfectly!

Be sure to also lock the custom Drift Sectors bag in place, as it will sometimes glitch out of the holder.

I've found a much better and easier fix. When you load this mod you should get a prompt for the missing asset. Replace the URL with this: https://chry.me/tts/misc/new_blackhole_test.unity3d

Then right click the wooden cube behind the Drift Sectors bag, click Custom, and replace the URL there the same way.

For some reason, the Lost Sector will be in that second bag, but you can simply move it to the main one.

Mod is unfortunately broken, and getting the steps below to work has proved very difficult.

I figured it out, here are the (high level) steps:

1. Subscribe to this and the Xia: Embers of a Forsaken Star (EoFS) that is in a foreign language
2. Load Xia
3. Load the foreign language Xia: EoFS and copy the sectors to the center of the table
4. Save the sectors object (right click on the sectors and select "save object")
5. Clear the table (I deselected "Mod Caching" which is in the game options menu)
6. Load Xia
7. Load this version of Xia:EoFS
8. Remove (right click and delete) the sectors (you might need to unlock it first)
9. Load the saved sectors object
10. Move it to the place where the sectors were
11. Save the game, and you're good to go

I will add more detailed steps later.

I agree Bad Canon, I am able to understand 1 - 3. I am guessing "clear the asset warning" means hit x on the popup window that appears to try to be loading the blackhole sector.

Where I really get stuck is 5. What is the "alternate language version mod" and how would I search it (tried searching for this got a text-to-speech mod to come up, which I don't think is it).

This mod does not seem to work I get a black hole error and the instructions from Default-DEL don't entirely make sense to me.

1. Load the original XIA DLC.

2. Copy/clone the sector stack to the centre of the table.

3. Load the "Embers + Missions and Powers Expansion" mod onto your table.

4. Clear the asset warning.

5. Search the alternative language version mod and pull out the sector stack.

6. Check that the new sector stack has 31 sector tiles. In my experience, there were only 30 and the Lost Sector tile was missing from the stack. In that case, take the Lost Sector tile from the original stack that you cloned and move it into the new mod stack so that you have 31 tiles.

7. Save the new 31 sector tile stack as an Object (so that you can load them easily next time you boot the game).

8. Place the tiles in a convenient space on the board.

9. You should now be ready to play!

!! NOTE !!
I have noticed that saving a game in this current stage does not load correctly. To avoid this, press the start button of at least one player on the table, then save the game as a template.

If you download the asian language version, it still has the sector tiles available which you can copy and paste to use in this version.

Seems like this is completely broken. "new blackhole sector" wont load, which then breaks the entire sector deck

If anyone can help me with this mode would b e great I can't really get anything to work the sector titles are not ware and I can't access any exploration tokens and a lot of other things. Also getting an error that the bag asset bundle doesn't want to load?

The sector bag asset bundle doesn't want to successfully import. How do I fix that?

@apache_alfredo & @Muskrat Steve

I got Relics in my Xia extras workshop post if you want them.
https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2353830317

The correct Relics are:
2x 2k credits & GTS
2x 2k credits & Enviro shield
1x 2k credits & piercer
2x 3k credits
1x 2k credits & m-comp
1x 2k credits & armor plating
1x 2k credits & Cargo pod
5x 2k credits & 2 of a colored cargo cube (1 of each color)

I would recommend rehosting your own save to what you prefer.

The imgur hosted images are more unstable during loading, especially during Imgur's peak hours. I have to reload many times over to get missions and events to load wihout missing textures. Once I'm fully loaded, obviously I turn on caching and I'm fine, but for for new folks it's a pain in the butt.

Is there any chance you could get the images uploaded/rehosted through TTS/steamworks?

Hi Muskrat Steve.. great mod man... really well done! I think I might have broken something however. I locked the Vagabond in the air above the board and upon saving the game and reloading cannot unlock the yellow base of the vagabond object/model. Are these two separate items in the mod? All the standard ships when hovered over seem to highlight the base AND ship model together, but the expansion ships only seem to highlight the ship part, not the base.

Textures for exploration tokens seems missing

does anyone know why the ship mats are unusually dark?

The composition of exploration and relic tokens seems to be wrong.

It should be 30 exploration tokens (5x movement/quest/ice dmg/energy and 2x each cargo cube), but it's only 27 and mainly cargo cubes. Relic tokens are focused around cargo cubes, too but should be way more modules/outfits.

Never mind, reverse engineered the sector tiles, Success!
Fan sector tiles incoming in a few days.

I'd like to add custom pieces, can you advise how to assemble the unity bundle?

Yes, the Xia DLC is required.

does this require DLC? mine seems to stuck loading at 137/224

Is this still working for other people? It doesn't seem to want to load the exploration tokens for me.

This is great! We played last night. I did notice that the relics dont snap to grid on the ship properly.

Hi, wanted you know that your mod has been added to my collection: Board Game Geek - BGG - May 2020 - Best Mod for each of the Top 500 Rated Games. Collection here: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2086043930

The collection used this priority system:

1. Mod's Files Availability: Mod with all/most files still available for download
2. Feature completeness: Mod with greatest inclusion of expansions and/or promos available for the board game title

3. Component Quality: Mod with the best visuals/usability in terms of component quality
4. Table Setup/Ambiance: Mod with the best immersion with table, background, and other modeling.

Please also note that a mod that makes selection for this list very well could be one in which the mod author borrowed the majority of assets from another workshop listing, so full thanks to all who worked on a mod.

Thanks for your hard work!

@BoardGameBill Try right clicking it and checking its properties, it is possible it's snap setting has been disabled, you can re-enable it and it should snap to grid.

Anyone else having trouble with the Vagabond model? It doesn't seem to want to stand up correctly or snap to the grid spaces like the other ships.

Hi! Thanks for the mod. I have a question: where is the Kiln's NPC Card?

Does this integrate with the main Xia DLC? Seems like out of the 3 on the site, this is the most recently updated.

Thanks!

Thank you! :-)

Thanks!

Thanks a lot...
