Thanks I appreciate that but I’m staying on pc now

@Shadow Reaper I'm afraid not as it relies on 3rd party client side scripts (MES) to work.

Is this available for Xbox?

Man it kills me that the mod doesn't work STC
Qarannia  [author] 30 Aug, 2024 @ 5:17am 
@Atomicrc I remember STC; they adapted some of my Trek stuff for their server.
Atomicrc 29 Aug, 2024 @ 5:06pm 
Ahh seeing this reminds me of the time I ran the borg faction on STC, untill they outlawed cubes and shot down non trek ships.

@panerdar We all have those moments. :steamhappy:
panerdar 26 Aug, 2024 @ 8:03am 
lmao, I figured out why none were spawning for me. When I set my server up, I put in all the required mods EXCEPT the Borg mod. My eyes are not what they used to be lol.
Qarannia  [author] 26 Aug, 2024 @ 4:15am 
@panerdar They will spawn randomly basically. MES looks at all the NPCs that are eligible to spawn at your location, including the vanilla SPRT pirates and then selects one depending on the "weight" it's given by the modder. All of mine have pretty much equal weight so you could get three different ones in a row or the same one three times in a row.

I recommend using mods that suppress the vanilla pirates if you want more of these to spawn. Also, they require you to have a high enough threat level; have a read of the guide for more info on how to check your threat level; they won't spawn if you're in a respawn pod.

You can, of course, manually spawn them using the commands in the guide but that still respects the threat level requirement so they won't spawn unless you have something that can take them on.
panerdar 25 Aug, 2024 @ 11:38am 
Trying this on my server. Is there anything specific that makes the borg spawn?
Qarannia  [author] 16 Aug, 2024 @ 6:04am 
@praymond151 No, I don't make Star Wars mods; I leave that to Enenra.

EVIL DOCTOR 16 Aug, 2024 @ 5:57am 
@ Qarannia do you have any star wars mods ?
Qarannia  [author] 16 Aug, 2024 @ 2:11am 
@Finest Fellaz I wouldn't have thought so. Most people who post ships make them vanilla to reach the widest possible audience. It's up to individual players / servers whether they want to mod out those ships.
Finest Fellaz 15 Aug, 2024 @ 3:35pm 
are there any ships on the workshop that were made with the modded armour blocks?
Draimond 15 Aug, 2024 @ 1:17pm 
wow.... that's honestly sick. That Borg cube looks so good!
Qarannia  [author] 13 Aug, 2024 @ 12:58pm 
@deadreth I leave the Star Wars stuff to others. Enenra does the GFA series of mods which is SW focused.
deadreth 13 Aug, 2024 @ 8:08am 
how about one for starwars, hell, both at the same time! borg versus the empire!
PvP.Cookie 12 Aug, 2024 @ 2:17pm 
Holy **** a borg cube, that's epic !
Qarannia  [author] 10 Aug, 2024 @ 8:58am 
@praymond151 I'd probably need to create some Stargate weapons first and there isn't the wealth of info on those that there is for Star Trek. The idea of doing SG style stuff, though I loved the show, has never really appealed to me.
EVIL DOCTOR 10 Aug, 2024 @ 7:44am 
@ Qarannia Can you make some stargate mod Encounters please
Qarannia  [author] 9 Aug, 2024 @ 1:11am 
@Captain The larger grids make the game freeze for a couple of seconds while they load in, after that it depends on your system. Mods like repair systems lag the game out more than these NPCs.
theonlygamer287 9 Aug, 2024 @ 12:25am 
THE CUBE..............
Captain 8 Aug, 2024 @ 4:20pm 
how performance pending is this?
ThuggNastee 8 Aug, 2024 @ 6:21am 
You know, the last time I ran into such a large cube, I got assimilated into some sort of cult. Some creepy spine lady kept telling me that she was the queen, but I knew that wasn't true because Queen Elizabeth II had just passed. What the hell was I on?
TheMonkeyMann 7 Aug, 2024 @ 11:17pm 
BEFORE TIME BEGAN...THERE WAS...THE CUBE...
Qarannia  [author] 7 Aug, 2024 @ 5:21am 
@Jolly Indeed it is. :steamhappy: I'd love them to be bigger but then they would be too taxing even for high end systems.
Jolly 6 Aug, 2024 @ 6:01pm 
the cube is beautifully done
Qarannia  [author] 6 Aug, 2024 @ 5:33am 
@SpaceCowboy7 I reckon it boils down to a difference in philosophy really. The Borg had the strength to just take what they wanted so no design beyond the purely functional was necessary; indeed it would have detracted from their philosophy of perfection.

The best "lore" explanation for designing a ship to look good was something I read when I was young. It was a non-canon TOS book and in it, Kirk makes the following statement regarding the design of the Enterprise. "If this was in orbit around your planet, wouldn't you want to talk to it?" Starfleet was all about seeking new life and new civilisations, and I just reckon you'd attract more "welcomes" with a piece of art than a menacing brick.

Starfleet did adapt somewhat through encounters with the Borg and the Dominion War and produced ships like Defiant, designed more for combat. But they still wouldn't stray far, I believe, from that very human quality of wanting to make something look cool.
Qarannia  [author] 6 Aug, 2024 @ 5:26am 
Thank you all for your support and comments; I do appreciate them.

@Yazan6814_YT I didn't build the ships, ZEO CMF did and he kindly lets me use them for my NPC mods. What I do build is the mods that go into the ship like the weapons blocks for example that aren't part of vanilla SE. I also do the MES configs that turn these ships into NPC spawns, hopefully for the entertainment of those who enjoy Star Trek and play SE.
SpaceCowboy7 5 Aug, 2024 @ 5:18pm 
Why would you want anything other than a cube flying in space, maximizing living/functionality space.Theres no reason for aerodynamics also. Who cares about outward apperance, who's going to see it, space is big, so mind bogginly big...
Yazan6814_YT 5 Aug, 2024 @ 1:37pm 
bro you make butiful ships, and make them my fav. colurs and think that nice no just no this shi* is greate if i could vote for you to make the update tralers and event trailers im making 100 of accounts to vote:)

Beautiful designs.

Not playing the game anymore but as a Trek-nerd I gotta say: Spot on
Id be scared af seeing that ball chase me knowing its origin
Gandalf der Weisse 5 Aug, 2024 @ 4:15am 
Cool!
Qarannia  [author] 5 Aug, 2024 @ 2:23am 
@locknload339 I don't disagree with you. After all, the Borg were never interested in aesthetics, only efficiency. So their ships were bound to be ugly but functional.
Qarannia  [author] 5 Aug, 2024 @ 2:22am 
@pgames-food Thank you. :steamhappy:
locknload339 5 Aug, 2024 @ 1:36am 
i maybe saying something controversial but borg ships are the ugliest ship to ever existed

I'm currently reinstalling for this mod.
Resistance is futile.
Qarannia  [author] 4 Aug, 2024 @ 5:04am 
@Dark_453 Thank you very much. :steamhappy: Of course, I can't take credit for how good the ships look; that's down to ZEO and his buddies who built most of the NPC ships I use. All I can take credit for is modding them out and making them work as NPCs with MES.
Qarannia  [author] 4 Aug, 2024 @ 5:03am 
@cruz0e Klingon and Romulan encounters are in other modules so players can choose which factions they want in their specific game. Also Federation, Cardassian and Dominion NPCs have their own modules too.
Dark_453 4 Aug, 2024 @ 4:01am 
Cool mod man, see alot of ships like the borg but nothing as good looking, and way more functional. Glad to know that the MES is still going strong, Congratz on the showcase.
Trust in the Q :engi::steamthumbsup:
cruz0e 4 Aug, 2024 @ 3:55am 
I'm not playing the game currently, and never played it for too long...
but I'm a big Star Trek fan, so I have to say, thanks.
Looking at this made my day!

I'd love to see some Birds of pray, and Warbirds too (Klingon and Romulan ships) :D
Qarannia  [author] 4 Aug, 2024 @ 2:57am 
@C_D_R Thank you; it's good to know that SE's players enjoy these mods. It inspires us modders to keep creating. And, of course, it inspires the builders who've kindly allowed their ships to be used to keep building. It's a win-win for everyone. :steamhappy:
Qarannia  [author] 4 Aug, 2024 @ 2:55am 
@Chester I won't lie; I'm pretty stoked about that.
