Homeworld Remastered Collection - Game Mod - FX:Galaxy v.1.39 - Download

FX:Galaxy is a mod for Homeworld Remastered Collection, created by 9ccN.

Description (in author’s own words):

FX:Galaxy (commonly known as the FXmod) is a long-term modification project for the Homeworld series that aims to tell the story of the eight main races from the Homeworld universe in one game. Continuing the legacy left behind by its HW2 predecessor (FX: Commander), FX:Galaxy continues the FX project's work in Homeworld Remastered while at the same time tapping into the new possibilities for Homeworld modding it provided.

Features

8 Playable Races: Continue your campaign as the Hiigaran or Vaygr, reclaim past glory as the Progenitors, orchestrate the revival of the Kadeshi, join the Taiidan Empire as they rise to power once more, pillage the galaxy together with the Turanic Raiders, relive the days of the exile as the Kushan, or try and bring peace to this turbulent galaxy as the Bentusi. All races are fully playable and await your command.

Increased Strategical Options: All races in the mod come with their own unique units, abilities and technology trees, bringing a vast amount of new playing styles and strategical options to the table. Can you draw out the full potential of your faction?

New Units & HD Models: The FXmod adds many new unit models to the game. Some were designed based on original Homeworld concept art (e.g. the new Turanic Attack Carrier; see here), others were designed by us from scratch - but what these units have in common is that they were designed with the concerning race's lore and characteristics in mind. Try out the new Progenitor Megacarrier, the Taiidan "Empress" Shipyard and the Kadeshi Nagual among many, many others – or come see our takes on old favorites, such as the completely re-textured Turanic Outpost from HW:Cataclysm.

NOTE: Since this was originally a HW2C mod some units still use HW2+ textures and models. These are being (and have been) upgraded to HWRM quality over time.

Enhanced Graphics & FX: New animations (e.g. Turanic smoke, Progenitor energy), weapon fx (e.g. improved Taiidan ion beams & plasma bombs, Kadeshi energy weapons), subsystem models, unit blueprints, sounds, and way more eye candy for prying eyes (and ears) to discover.

New Content: Test your mettle in new Single-Player Missions and Challenge Modes, aid the Bentusi in their fight against increasing waves of enemies in Bentusi Defense, summon and fight alongside the very developers of the FXmod in the chaotic The Legendary Fleet mode, or expand your horizons with 12 New Gameplay Maps for use in Player vs. CPU and Multiplayer matches - each made from scratch without map generators. This and more 'bonus content' is gradually added over time as a thank you to our fans!

Unique Features: A dynamic Main Menu background, in-game Achievement System (WIP) and a fully customizable In-Game Homeworld Music Player that features both the entire HW OST and a number of 'bonus' tracks (and even lets you add your own songs to truly let you customize your BGM experience to your liking) are just three of the current features the FXmod has brought to the table - with more to come still.

Vanilla Changes: Squadrons instead of single units, restoration of the original Taiidan 'armada' playing style from HW1, removal of obsolete units (e.g. HGN Gunship, Minelayer), enhancements to existing units (e.g. HGN Pulsar Gunship with dual turrets), streamlined production/researching and ongoing balance adjustments are just a few of the various revamps the FXmod brings with it in comparison to the originals.

Improved Shader: A tweaked version of the HWRM shader that aims to restore the "space feel" by no longer having metallic surfaces look as if there is flashlight cast on them from all angles.
