Not sure where is more appropriate to ask this, but would you consider adding support for the ships included in DarkSpace - https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2719075597&searchtext=DarkSpace ?

sorry for the poke Fran but when you are able to, fixing ai empires using the unbidden ship would be really really appreciated please!

Question:
LOADORDER

1. NSC3 Module - Extra Shipsets (Offical Addon)
2. NSC3

Why would we load the extra shipsets before NSC3?

I have had random empires use the unbidden ships too, and its so annoying

@Dan.llama
I will look into it. RL kicks atm on me. I promise i will check it as soon as i can

Is there a way to remove the Unbidden Ships? I dont want random empires to use this shipset (its ugly imo)

May ur lobster be buttery and ur steak juicy. Hope both sides of ur pillow are cool. Hope u win a local lottery.

@Fran Thanks for all you do! I really appreciate all the work you put in so we can enjoy the game.

@Shotgun Solutions
Thank you for reporting the issue. I will check it as soon as i can :)

@Fran I ran Nsc3 with this mod and a few story mods like the "More events mod".

@Shotgun Solutions
Hmmm i will check,that.
Have you mods installed?
Did you try a gamestart with just this installed?

@Fran I appreciate the response but I didn't give any AI civs those ship sets. They had them when I started a new game with this mod installed.
One plant race had unbidden vessels and a mammal race had the space fauna ship set and 3 or others all had the fallen empire ship set.

@Shotgun Solutions

Those ships are build by the game itself, and also by some mods.
No Ships here are choosed by AI without you giving it to them. These are just shipsets and its not affecting AI behaviour.

I think you can even build unbidden vessels yourself with every race :)

Is there a way to stop empires in the galaxy from using these unique sets? It felt really weird when I encountered a plant civ flying around in unbidden energy vessels.

I really just want that ancient set *x*

@Tairanos
*smiles* Keep me updatet if it still happens, but shoudlnt :D

Oh, my bad seems that it was a conflict with an other mod, they say it is compatible with NSC, but for me it makes all extra stuff from NSC disappear, could only be that or this mod, since it was working fine before, sorry again

@Tairanos

I dont get what you mean?
Every component you get with NSC3 should also work with this one.
Also Researches and so like Strike Cruiser is essential since you use NSC

If you dont use NSC,you dont get those ships.
This set are only shipsets, it doesnt affect researches.
if you have issues with tec, maybe reabo NSC and check if that did help.
In my test i was able to use all nsc tec with these ships also.

Maybe check also if you use some other mods affecting tecs maybe conflicting :)

Will the extra ships and components from NSC be added eventualy? Also noted the that even tho they are removed, the research for them still apear and are necessary for progression to other techs

@Proselyte Ethan
You're very welcome hihi :)

Wanted to express my gratitude for you guys digging this venerable old mod out of it's grave and giving it a chance to shine in 4.0, the shipsets are fantastic.

@UncleanlyMetal
You're welcome :D Its oki i'm glad i found out what it was :D

Thanks Fran for the quick fix! Sorry I couldn’t provide more info before hand, I should of done that

@GiallorossoForever
You need only NSC3 and this. Everything else is included

do i still need to download the other mods or this is all mods into one ?

Redownload Mod. Should be fixed :)

I get an error on my end with the ancient miner ship type, in which orbital rings lose their model.

I do have other mods but its just UI overhaul and the load order is following what the description says so hopefully its not on my end? It is Stellaris so who knows.

@eaflorio Yes one you cannot play without the DLC. If you click on them you see the rejquiremtns :)
I will fix the frigate if the skin is missing. i'm not at home atm, but i sit on it as soon as i can!

they're*

There are now two pirate ship classes, judging by how they look, they've made up of pieces the other is supposed to have (the frigate in one class is just floating guns, the frigate in the other class is just the hull without any weapons)

Oh thanks lol, missed it

@eaflorio
Redownload the Mod, it should be fixed.

Swarm Set not in Bio area is honestly intented since NSC3 is still working out bioships.
To use full potential it is for now intended to keep them in mechanical until bioships are finished.

For this mod, theres two things that I noticed that don't really make sense. First of all, theres a copy pirate ship type in the Biological Ship type area, and the Swarm Ships are not in the Biological Ship type area. I don't know if these are purposeful, but they definitely don't seem like it.

@57z Removed them for now. If it stil overwrites it, i guess its because MEM uses in its Events maybe some ships, with the same name as this one

@57z It has some leftover Portraits i'm working on. Will delete them out for a moment. But Shipsets you should do at the top mostly anyways, since its beter if you play with extra ship custom parts, or even some faction mods also adding shipstuff :)

@Ty Please read description or comment sections :) You can play it withous NSC

Where can I get these shipsets without NSC?

should be fine if i put it on the top of load order, but idk why it's overriding MEM

it overrides MEM for some reason?

@MyresMkG As i answered in previous comment. Yes it should work. Just without additional Ships of NSC3. If not, let me know.

Would it work without NSC?

@Draconic Warlord It should work without NSC3 also.
You just would have no additional NSC3 ships.

Is it possible to use this standalone without NSC3 or if not would it be possible to make a separate mod for that?

@The Dastardly Imperial and @Battlespark
So so much thank youu!

Just gonna give a round of applause for the one modder that brought back a pretty awesome shipset from the past.

this..is huge! outstanding work!

the gem that singlehandedly saved stellaris larping

@obione69 Yeah stellaris dev's kinda left some ships to use! Lucky for everyone!

wow.. this is amazing.. and all you did was just include the special ships locked out by the devs.. well done.. 100% perfection.

Heck they will probably want you on the team in the future!

@Roland @CrazyOldTexan @Baka Racker
Thank yoou all so much. I'm so happy to make you happy!
And that i was allowed to take this step inside of NSC3
I couldnt believe that i got the allow to redo this offical Patch!

Excellent work as usual! Wow Fran you exceed on a spectacular level!
