Dark Mammalian Shipsets

The Dark Mammalian Shipsets mod adds 12 new, dark Mammalian ship appearance types to the game, each equipped with appropriately color coordinated engines, lights, and forcefields. These new ship appearances will only be useable by the player. The only way to get the AI to use them is to create a custom empire with one of these 12 ship appearance types selected and adding said empire into your new game via the Phoenix looking symbol next to that empire in the empire creation screen. The 12 colors available with this mod are seen in the image right above this paragraph.

NOTE: This mod is only meant to introduce a new graphical culture for shipsets and citysets. This means that it will create a new portrait tab that will be blank. There is nothing I can do about this without removing the culture entirely (which includes the shipset and cityset). If I ever find a way to remove the portrait tabs I will, but these are NOT glitches.



While it's technically not a required mod, it is very highly recommended that you use Antharis' Stellar Trails Disabler mod in conjuction with this mod. The Disabler mod removes the blue "streak" behind ships whenever they move. This looks particularly strange behind all but the blue-based Dark Mammalian variations, and thus the need for the mod.


Or you can use Clean Space - No Exhaust Trails by ButtJunkie if you want the same thing that doesn't throw warnings.
