@zepherreload use 1.6 instead, 1.5 isn't compatible with the most recent version of the game

my game just freezes

This version of the mod is for 1.5.48, ESG 1.6 is updated to the newest version of the game
Хáнквор 26 Sep, 2024 @ 5:37am 
Can you please tell me which version of the game this mod was made for or will there be an update?
Captain Cobbs  [author] 22 Aug, 2024 @ 2:24pm 
This mod works with any combination of DLCs
Jp78 21 Aug, 2024 @ 10:10am 
Do I need all the DLC's for this mod to work?
Captain Cobbs  [author] 30 Jun, 2024 @ 11:12pm 
Answered you on the ESG 1.6 comments section
Why ESG over ES2 Redux?

Will this work with community fixes and ENFER?

I mean I do agree with that but I don't know how one can stop the Lumerians as is. At this point I think I might just replace them in my games with Riftborn. Maybe I won't get carpet bombed with time rifts like I'm worried about.
Captain Cobbs  [author] 5 Jun, 2024 @ 10:20pm 
I'd try playing against different factions then, you might be better against some and bad against others :)
MerlinCross 5 Jun, 2024 @ 9:20pm 
I'll try turning the speed down but like it's ALWAYS the Lumerians that seem to just completely dominate. They just get "Explore X curisoities" in 4 or so turns it's just; do they just get ships or improvements for free, on normal?

I don't know how to compete when the mod is active; like you NEED that perfect starting system. Mod fixes several things but it just feels designed FOR Competitive which... I didn't even think there was a scene like that for this game but I suppose any game that has multiplayer has that scene, however small it is.
Captain Cobbs  [author] 3 Jun, 2024 @ 5:33pm 
Have you tried slowing down the game speed? It'll give you more time to get used to things. We have definitely sped up the flow of the game by 30-40% by making a lot of things more straight forward, but playing on slower speeds should hopefully make it easier :)
MerlinCross 3 Jun, 2024 @ 5:26pm 
I just don't have the tempo to keep up with the new flow of the game. I do like the changes(like the merc/civilian ships) but it's just a bit too fast for me. I might just need to play on the easiest mode.

What's weird is that it's always the Lumerians that seem to take over the galaxy not like the Carvers or the Empire
Captain Cobbs  [author] 3 Jun, 2024 @ 4:37pm 
@MerlinCross We did indeed get a lot of help from the competitive community but I've always done my best to ensure its fun and designed towards casual players as well.
MerlinCross 3 Jun, 2024 @ 4:08pm 
I like these mods a lot due to the balance and quality of life but it seems geared more for people that understand how to get Carriers in like 5 turns or something.

Lumerians always seem able to buy out the galaxy in less than 30 turns or so, even on the normal difficulty as an example, making the game far tougher than i prefer.

Not yet, use ESG 1.6 if you want to play on the newest version of the game
Shiibee 24 May, 2024 @ 9:00am 
Does this work for the latest version of the game? Or do I have to download/subscribe to the 1.6 on your profile? Sorry I'm quite new to the mods on Endless Space 2.
Captain Cobbs  [author] 23 May, 2024 @ 4:12pm 
Can you elaborate
tomloki.ramirez97 23 May, 2024 @ 4:09pm 
Is the mod save game compatible?
YouWontHitMe 20 Mar, 2024 @ 8:30am 
You are a real one Cobbs
Captain Cobbs  [author] 16 Mar, 2024 @ 12:57am 
Use ESG 1.6, 1.5 is not updated to the pre-patch version.
TheLostAstronaut 15 Mar, 2024 @ 9:58pm 
Also stuck on the loading screen, gets to game ready and launched but thats it
God_King 15 Mar, 2024 @ 7:33pm 
Hi guy's, i'm stuck at the loading screen. It says game ready and launched but nothing?
Ellye 11 Mar, 2024 @ 6:39pm 
Thanks for the great work!
Captain Cobbs  [author] 10 Mar, 2024 @ 4:05am 
Forgot to post here, the update to 1.6 is out, and we're preparing for an actual full release of 1.6 soon too!
The Dwarf. 10 Mar, 2024 @ 1:22am 
How soon should we expect an update for 1.6? Is it already out and I'm just illiterate?
Captain Cobbs  [author] 9 Mar, 2024 @ 7:23pm 
Just did! Try now
The Liability 9 Mar, 2024 @ 10:37am 
Can you update the achievement enabler as well? Using it right now just crashes the game on launch.
Captain Cobbs  [author] 7 Mar, 2024 @ 2:07pm 
We're almost done porting 1.6 to the patch preview, so it should be soon :)
Goofy Gooner 7 Mar, 2024 @ 12:56pm 
I can't wait to sink my teeth into that re-awakening update. You and the team have done an incredible job.
Captain Cobbs  [author] 22 Feb, 2024 @ 4:47am 
navigate to the ESG workshop folder (it'll be named 2619002053), go to the localization subfolder. Delete Localization/French, copy Localization/English and rename the copy to Localization/French, or change the language the game uses.
Vifali 15 Feb, 2024 @ 6:05am 
hi i don't really get why, but the tooltip for near everything changed by ESG are placeholder or something because of the French localization, i don't mind having all the modded changes in english but having nothing except %industrybonus something just isnt a game anymore, is there some way i can fix it ?
Captain Cobbs  [author] 3 Feb, 2024 @ 9:34pm 
Yes
yutao123 3 Feb, 2024 @ 9:17pm 
Thinking about using this mod for pvp with friends, we played it on base version a while ago, but the most annoying thing was free movement was too easy to stack to ridiculous levels where we would just start blitzing eachothers capitals and major systems from across the map in 1-2 turns. Does this mod stop it?
Captain Cobbs  [author] 22 Jan, 2024 @ 10:12pm 
Sure
Hawk™☆KevRockZ☆ 22 Jan, 2024 @ 4:48pm 
Can i ask about the Awakening / Academy DLC Overhaul? Since i didnt buy the DLC because of the bad reviews. :D
Captain Cobbs  [author] 19 Jan, 2024 @ 5:48pm 
The battle changes are the same but the balance patch largely does not contain any of the economy or faction balance.
Fuzanagi 19 Jan, 2024 @ 4:48pm 
Will this mod still be necessary when amplitude will finish the balance patch? Or they contain the same battle changes?
Captain Cobbs  [author] 18 Jan, 2024 @ 5:14pm 
The closest thing to what you'd like is disabling pvp hacking
Shadow 18 Jan, 2024 @ 2:52pm 
Is there a way to turn hacking off for everyone but the Umbral Choir?
Captain Cobbs  [author] 31 Dec, 2023 @ 1:23pm 
They both override the settings menu
Cthulhu The 3rd 31 Dec, 2023 @ 12:24pm 
So, I know it says that the mod is incompatible with more anomalies, but at least in 1.6 I didn't see any issues. What's the problem that those two cause each other if I might ask?
Captain Cobbs  [author] 3 Nov, 2023 @ 4:23am 
You can try, it's likely fundamentally incompatible. If you want to try making your own version of the xlp mod for ESG, that's what I would recommend.
Yard 3 Nov, 2023 @ 4:12am 
Any way to get this mod to work with arkon xlp? The truth is, the mod is great, but I like to play very long term and take my time, I would like to know how I can make the final turn at 4800 and the technology scale at that speed?
Asgahn 30 Oct, 2023 @ 9:00pm 
I can't figure out how to recolonise a razed system in ESG 1.5...any clues?
Arphar  [author] 29 Oct, 2023 @ 10:23am 
I have no clue what could be happening to you, the only advice I have is to not run other mods with ESG unless stated as being compatible.
Also do not have mods enabled if you are playing the beta.
LEMO 29 Oct, 2023 @ 10:03am 
Is this mod incompatible with '16X overcolonization limit increased" mod? I noticed something rather strange, without the mod enabled my overcol threshold is 8, and with it enabled my overcol threshold is 120. 8X16=128 so that might indicate that something is going wrong here. The real issue though: for some reason my game will get locked and be unable to end the turn forever, even upon reloading a save. This coincides with the values in the top left that tell you what you're going to gain/lose going haywire. On the turn before the game freezes while trying to end the turn, the indicated gain/loss for my empire wide manpower goes from being a value to "NaNM" with that capitalization. Then I hit end turn, and the rest of the values become that as well while my desktop's fans all ramp up to max power and it gets locked ending the turn. Does anyone know what's causing this?
Captain Cobbs  [author] 28 Oct, 2023 @ 8:29am 
You can change it in the lobby settings
Xenofang 28 Oct, 2023 @ 6:53am 
Is it a default of the mod to speed up probe animations? I personally like the default speed and noticed once I installed the mod the anomalies pop up instantly.
Captain Cobbs  [author] 15 Jun, 2023 @ 8:30pm 
Try using 1.6, likely fixed there
