Re: 3rd party software request
To me there are add-ons or expansions, and there are MODs (modifications). In SEIV it seems that the line isnt as clearly defined as in some games.
I was seeking expansion sets without mods. I dont want to change the game, just increase the options of whats there. Obviously if a MOD changes it into purely a StarWars game, or a Babylon % game, or an AI upgrade for advanced players, then those are mods I dont want yet.
Atrocities says that I can set the game to use a MOD. As I understand it I can make my own MOD directory, tell the game to use it, and copy all new things there. That makes it easy to turn off anything that I do which seems to go too far. That kindof blurs the definition of MOD but I can see the sense in it. I also got the impression that one of the downloaable mods was already along that line. A collection of many peoples projects which basically expanded what the stock game already had.
