Unlocked Factions

Description
This mod simply unlocked factions that were locked by default for the game. For example, it was impossible to be at peace with the Xenon but now it's possible.

I am explicitly unlocking the factions:
- Buccaneers
- Holy Order
- Khaak
- Scale Plate
- Xenon

Other factions even in DLC are not locked and were left as is.

If factions start friendly firing at each other they can possibly go to war easily. Also if sections trade they will get increased rep and maybe even ally.

Use this mod with iseeu0's cheat menu for ultimate control. A diplomacy addition to the menu is added which combined with this mod will allow the player control over their games factions.

All I did was unlock those factions so everything else is standard as the game intended. This will not impact storyline quests and those diplomatic outcomes. This mod should also not interfere with other mods as I am specifically just changing a switch to unlock the factions.

This mod is great, but unfortunately doesn't work on existing saves. For example: installing the mod and then starting an old save will not allow you to change your relationship with the Kha'ak or Xenon. It will always be -30. It works perfectly fine for new games, though.

Does this mod still work for folks? I've had it installed for a while, but Scale Plate just won't budge from -5 no matter how many quests I run. Does it require e new game?

Confirming Fallen Families is already unlocked by default. :steamthumbsup:

Fallen Families should be unlocked but I will double check

Can you also add Fallen Families which is not the CURB or Free Families people keep confusing themselves with.

Sure with the Boron release, I will most likely get back to X4, modding is on hold due to technical difficulties.

To answer your question, yes, the unlocked factions will react depending on events. An example: If 2 allies friendly fire each other too much, they can quickly become enemies.

I have not managed to get to factions to make peace "naturally" without the cheat menu mod, maybe I am doing something wrong but I do not understand how to get 2 factions to like each other. However I did not try DeadAir Dynamic Wars, and I think I need to.

Hello, in fact I thought that the relations with the OSR faction of the Rise of the Ossian Raider mod could evolve thanks to the DeadAir Dynamic Wars mod, but it is not.

Following up on your proposal, do you really think you'll get closer to the creator, and create a patch to unlock his faction which is stuck at -30 despite the events of the DeadAir Dynamic Wars mod. It would be fantastic if you could make it happen. If you have to create a new game, it doesn't matter, I'll start a game again soon with the borons I think.

Last question, thanks to your mod and with the DeadAir Dynamic Wars mod, so the other factions: - Buccaneers
-Holy Order
- Khaak
- Scale Plate
- Xenon
are going to interact depending on the events with all the other factions and between them? There is no limit to having a living and constantly evolving galaxy?



Thank you for your work !

@DouDou39 Factions added by Rise of the Ossian Raider will not be changed by this mod. If they are not unlocked by default then we need a mod or update to this one to unlock them.

The only factions I unlocked were Buccaneers, Holy Order, Khaak, Scale Plate and Xenon. So factions can make peace with the xenon, but doing that is easier said than done in gameplay.

However if you want control over who declares ware or makes peace, then I recommend iseeu0's cheat menu (linked in description above). We worked to add a diplomacy option where if you pair that cheat menu with this mod, then you have ultimate control.

To unlock factions for Rise of the Ossian Raider I need to investigate it and contact the mod authors to confirm they are okay with that. I do not think it will be difficult, either it can be added to this mod or make a separate one.

Hello, thank you for your superb work, will your mod also unlock the new factions added by other mods like in Rise of the Ossian Raider and that they will all have leisure to evolve politically/war according of their decisions?

Just a clarification please, with your mod, all factions can go to war and peace with each other?
