How long does it take for the Geonosian hive to get to space?

@bigpeenhaver: There are couple of things I want to change, but this update should fix the age issue.

droids still die instantly, any fixes? makes the game unplayable

hi force when you play as the droids all your leaders are over 100000 years old and all die instantly sometimes youll get one the -100000 years old im hopeing you can do a hot patch for this

Does this work for 2.8.x or is there an updated mod floating out there somewhere?

love the mod, but can you tell me how i can make use of the battle droid perk for robots and the tactical droid perk ? i mean i can only use them for my industry

@GeneralAlpha: I'll take a look.

the population portraits of the geonosians are gone, there in the species tab but wont show up after chosing them

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1959185117

I still cannot get the portraits to set correctly very disheartening they are off, small and to the left.

So i may be doing something wrong but the portrait background is like small and in the left corner how do i fix this? i dl'd the recommended stuff so idk

Unlocks Droid tech, how do you get that?

Hey force728, I'm sorry to be bothering you, again so soon. But there seems to be a problem with the avatars for CISDroids, I just thought I'd inform you about it.

I hope your doing well, again, sorry for the bother.

@Takeo Masaki: Thanks, I'll take a look at it.

Hey force728, I hope you're doing alright. I recently noticed that the planet model for Geonosis is all black. Just wanted to bring this to your attention.

Thank you so much force728 for adding the option to have Grievous be immortal, and adding him as an option for the droid remnant! I can't tell you how much I love it!

Force728, thanks for much for responding, and taking the time to even consider my questions. I greatly appreciate it. Having a civic to allow Grievous to be immortal would be amazing thank you so much!

Secondly, I was an idiot and forgot you can edit the robot portraits.

Thirdly, what you said, would be amazing. Even though he might reach through the screen and stab us both for putting him with droids. I really would love having him leading like Kalani currently does in the Separatist remanent.

@Takeo Masaki: Since I noticed your using the election system, Dooku and Grevious won't appear because they are set as rulers. The only way I can do that is to add both of them into the leader pool as generals, admirals, or governors. I chose not to do that because it would be strange having multiple portraits of them both show up repeatedly. I could offer to make a civic (possibly calling it "Cyborg General") to give immortality similar to what I did with Palpatine in another mod. Would that work for you?

As for your second question, they should already be available for robots to appear as cis droids. Just modify them in the robot template system and you should find their portraits in there.

Although Grevious is not a machine, and he would probably kill both of us for this, I can do that for you. Since I picked up the MegaCorp expansion, I've been working on adding some more planet initializers for this mod, so an update should come out soon.

I love this mod, but I have a couple of questions. After Grievous/Dooku/etc. don't win an election, there is never another leader with their portrait. Is this intended, and could it be changed for them to possibly appear again? I also had Trench as my leader once, but his portrait didn't appear as my leader. Instead it was just a Neimoidian portrait instead.

Would it be possible to make the robots/droids/synthetics portraits for the Separatists the actual droid portraits instead of the vanilla game ones?

I know this is a lot to question about, but would it also be possible to put the Grievous model in the "CISDroids" portraits. He isn't a droid of course, but it would be amazing to have an immortal Grievous be the supreme commander.

Where are those droidekas?

It's Amazing!

@Bucket: Yeah those are mine, I'm sharing some of the portrait mods I made with the ship pack. However, be aware that some starting systems, buildings, or civics may not be in the ship mod since I've made changes to the originals from time to time. Just sub to both and you should be fine.

Are these mods combined with Star Wars Ship pack?? I already have a CIS droid civic as described here but i am not subbed to THIS mod? I see your name on Star Wars Ship Pack and wondered if you were the one who did the kamino cloning, CIS army civis, etc

♥♥♥

@Max-Tex: Ok, I made a patch for it here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1628493632

Loving this mod, but I think the recent update you gave it may have broken some other Machine portraits (specifically the United Sci-Fi Races: Robots one). I could be wrong, but it's worth looking into.

@force728...I had requested EXACTLY this earlier today, then went to test, started up a game and saw I couldn't put the droid portraits on my modded bots and deleted my comment - You are the best!.....Also I had a small suggestion to differentiate the selection to use the Dooku portrait rather then the droid portrait for the all races choice since people won't be expecting a species of clone Dooku

@Everyone: Hey guys, I wanted to let you all know that I'm making a change to the portraits. I've decided to separate the Droid portraits from the Organic CIS portrait set and moved them to the Machine Template System for customizing robot pops. That way, it would make more sense to have droids like the Super Tactical Droid being a Synthetic Leader. I also made changes to the Droid Army civic so that it would give you Machine Template tech in addition to the Droid tech. I also provided a small amount of mineral resources for the robot assembly planet to get you started. So that's it, if you have any thoughts on this or would prefer it back to the way it was, just let me know in the comments section. Thanks everyone. :)

@xmandan: Sure, I'll get it done and thanks for letting me know about the text.

Just a question about the Feb1st update- You added Muunilist to the CIS Systems initializer / Not as a seperate system intitializer correct? The description Isnt updated in homeworld selection....But I'd also like to desperately request a seperate system as I already play with an intergalactic banking clan Megacorp using your great portraits as I'm sure other do as well. As always thanks for your work - these mods really expand on the possibilites in my huge playthroughs

Thanks for this mod then! Love it!

@Ancient Gatekeeper: Late reply but I tested it out and its compatible as far as I can tell. The Remastered Human Portraits overwrite the ones in the mod, so you should be fine with both.

Do you know if this mod would be compatible with: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1591647610&searchtext=remastered or would it overwrite the remastered human portaits?

@RisaD: Thanks for the feedback, I'll change it soon. Also, adding Muunillinst in is a good suggestion. I was thinking of adding the Quarrens and the planet Minntooine with a ship building bonus. If you have another planet suggestion in mind, let me know.

Just a thought on balance: 1 roboticist per 2 pops on Geonosis is really overkill. I'm not play as the CIS but I have them spawned into my galaxy and the AI can't handle it. I'm 100 years in and they have a -800 minerals and -350 energy deficit. My suggestion would be 1 per 5 or 10 pops. Oh and I'd like to see Muunilinst added as part of their core worlds, maybe that could help the resource issue with more planet moddifiers.

THIS WILL MAKE A FINE ADDITION TO MY COLLECTION

Gotta throw my hat into the ring and say that the Dooku portrait is my favorite. Man I miss Christopher Lee :(

(I also nerdgasm'd seeing OOM-9. Hat's off to you!)

@Force 728 - THANK YOU SO MUCH!

ROGER ROGER.

Regardless they look really good!

Yes kind of like that. I use the "Sci Fi Races" mod, but the fact that these are animated makes me REALLY excited to use them :D Just would be preferable if they were seperated xD

I want to found a determined exterminator battle droid empire

Please do

@Reaver Mandalore: Sorta like the Halo Covenant species mod? Sure, I can separate them.

Edit: Would it be possible to have an option for these phenotypes to be seperate? I'd love to use these with other civs but not all of them simultaneously

I'll be curious how well this works with the other sci fi races mod. Will tell you if it causes problems. Really lovin' the mandelorian ones!

Wow, the pics look great. I started a new game last night though.... now I'm tempted to scrap it and start a newer new game tonight! LOL
