Description
Supports version 3.7.*
Ironman Compatible

Description: This mod aims to downscale the ships in-game to what I personally think is the proper scaling differences between the ship classes. It Affects all vanilla and DLC shipsets along with non-playable entities. The other purpose of this mod is to ease me back in to Stellaris modding and help me build a foundation for my very own mod list with mods that I personally will be using. Spiritual successor to Downscaled Ships mod with my own flair and scaling.

Features:
- Downscaled Ships for Vanilla and DLC Shipsets
- Downscaled Non-playable Ships
- Downscaled and reworked vanilla weapon effects for the new scale
- (For Developers) Reorganized .asset files for all shipsets to be more uniform in layout and distributed station and turret entities to new .asset files.

Important Usage Notes:
- Shipclass and Shipset mods will have a soft incompatibility as both require rescaling of the new assets both mod types add.
- I cannot support every single ship class and shipset mod in existance and therefore you will need to do the rescaling for those mods yourself or find someone to do it for you.

Disclaimer:
- Screenshots uses Landmass to further emphasize the scaling

Mod Order:
- Any other mods
- Miniature
- Miniature patch mods

Future Plans:
- Further adjustments to scaling
- Integration to my other personal mods for my own mod list

FAQ:
Q: This seems like just downscaled ships mod!
A: Well you are correct. The difference is I did some organizing with the .asset files and used my own personal preferences for scaling.

Q: Will you rescale XYZ?
A: You can do it yourself. I have put variables on top of each .asset file so you can easily switch values for things. As for the Starbases, Titans, Juggernauts, and Colossus. I currently like the scale of these things but I might revisit it on the future.

Q: NSC? Realistic Ships? Shipset support? Some Obscure Ship mod support?

A: Currently, I only plan to support my own ship sets and ship class mods.

Q: What other mods do you plan to do?
A: Please refer to my Galactic Resonance Collection for any planned mods and current progress.

The design screen size issue has always annoyed me. Many thanks for the tip!

Great mod. If anybody hates how smoll everything looks in empire design menu and the ship designer, you can modify gfx\shipview\shipview_environment.txt file.
min_zoom = 0.5
max_zoom = 5.0
zoom_speed = 0.05
Those values work for me, doesn't break ironman or achievement compatibility.

Should work still, from what I can tell

Is this mod still being updated? Does it work in the current version of Stellaris?
Lufian 28 Aug, 2023 @ 3:05pm 
Not needed, he has already implemented something similar

This is not a criticism of this mod at all, but I found that it does not work well with mods that change the graphics of weapon effects like Amazing Space Battles. The effects seem like they are at the vanilla scale and it looks a bit odd with the downsized ships. This is a good mod though. I guess I gotta pick one or the other. :3dm_pilot:

I get a weird error message when I attempt to add this mod to a collection. Odd...

Works fine subscribing though.
