Description
Content
This mod introduces an expansive array of archaeological narratives, uncovering the mysteries and legacies of ancient space empires and enigmatic worlds. Players will delve into the forgotten histories of once-mighty civilizations, exploring ruins, deciphering ancient texts, and excavating relics of bygone eras.

This is a continuation from XVCV's Archaeology Story Pack for Stellaris 3.14.
After checking the stories told in his mod, I decided to organize them in two categories:

Lore-friendly: a few stories have been selected to be moved to the Forgotten Empires mod:
  • Biggest Show in the World
  • King of the Underground City
  • Soul of the Art
  • The First Music
  • Tomb of Space Whales
  • When the World sings

Non-Lore Stories/Unchecked stories: These stories will stay here for now:
  • A Bedroom Planet
  • Axis of the Planet (Include: Multi Ends)
  • Beyond Earth: Purity (Displayed as: Desolate World) (Leads to: Desolate World -> Isolated World)
  • Dawn star is coming
  • Epilogue (Leads to: Ancient Probe -> Epilogue)
  • Geocentrism (Displayed as: Fixed World) (Includes: a Colossus Weapon, Geo-centralizer)
  • Haunting Spectre (Displayed as: Ruined World)
  • Parasite Machine
  • Rain World
  • Red Tomb World
  • Ship of Theseus
  • Strangely Fertile World (Leads to: Strangely Fertile World -> Awakened Moon)
  • The Place where history has preserved (Displayed as: Kessler Syndrome)
Note that some of the stories here contain spoilers for Rain World and Dead Space.

Why this separation? I feel that everyone should enjoy these stories the way they want. If you don't mind out of context stories in your game, you can still have the full content by subscribing to both mods. If not, you can just have the lore-friendly stories with Forgotten Empires (and enjoy its additional stories as well).

The source of the issue has been found, it's a bug from the game linked to species accumulating affixes. So your Neo-Post-Ultra-High-Meta-Mutatis-YourSpecies will progressively endanger your game. And while you might have some control over your own species, you won't have such luck with the AI ones.
Unsure if 4.2 fixes that, though.

From the 'Change Notes' - "Fixed ... planet class definition" --> did this resolve the below CTD and failed save files issues given below?
Reiko 22 Nov @ 4:43pm 
Yeah it's killed my saves as well.

Thanks, let's continue in the bugs thread.

@ Inny

Do you want us to continue in the comments section, or the bugs thread? I've posted an answer there.

Is it crashing at a specific year or around a given decade or something?

I'm very sorry that this happens, I can't find a reason for that but I'm still looking for the cause.

Can confirm the save CTD on my end as well. Completely borked two save files now.

Adopt and work on an abandoned archaeology/astral rift storypack mod. Many good ones available but currently unusable, often because they haven't been migrated to 4.x. :-(

Not only do you get the benefit of a lot of work already sunk into the storypack, but you'll also learn from it modding and integrating your work into Stellaris mechanics.

@ Genzo & Awful

You guys should post things like ths in the bugs thread instead.
