Androids Expanded

This mod is an extension to the existing machine and robot POPs with a much more human-like appearance, so that you can really call them synths. It includes one male and female android skin, together with a variety of clothes depending on jobs and some hair styles. Machine empires can choose them from the beginning. Regular empires can access them later with robomodding.

This mod is not really something special. You could say it basically only adds fancy eye candy. Like many of my mods before I primarily developed it for personal (RP) use and thought you might like it also.

Only the following file has been edited:
/common/species_classes/00_species_classes.txt
(In short: anything, that adds additional portraits to the machine-phenotype, or touches this file, will cause issues. Anything else is fine and all otherwise necessary files have been included in this mod.)
The DLC "Synthetic Dawn" is highly recommended, especially to this mod with machine empires, but if not you can still use this mod to modify for your normal robots and in case of synthetic ascension.

I highly recommend using UI Overhaul Dynamic: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1623423360 otherwise the vanilla screen when robomodding is too narrow and not all portraits can be displayed. But other UI-mods should also be helpfull.


The following link leads to a patch for the case when you use the "Androids Expanded" mod together with SE - Humanoids. This solves the problem with the blank species protrait. if you are not using "SE - Humanoids" than this patch has no use for you.

This mod is in a "finished" state. That means all major work is done. Currently I am working on expanding the cloth variety. This update will be released when 3.0 strikes.

To create this mod I used some small but essential elements from Silfae's mod: Animated Synthetics Portraits - Expanded, so he also deserves significant credit.
