[OUTDATED!] Mass Effect: Crucible

Not updated for 3.0 and never will be.

Further development on Mass Effect Crucible has finished. This mod will stay up, but it is recommended that you visit the team behind the Beyond the Relays mod for future ME Stellaris content - This mod will be partly integrated into Beyond the Relays, which will be its successor.

Mass Effect: Crucible is a Semi-Conversion mod that brings Stellaris into the Mass Effect universe. Unlike other overhaul/total conversion mods which seek to completely change Stellaris to fit within a certain universe, ME: Crucible selectively changes just enough to make Stellaris feel like Mass Effect. In practical terms, this allows excellent compatibility with many other game changing mods! (see compatibility section below for details)

This is an early first release of ME: Crucible. This means it is not complete, and most likely buggy, but it is at a level that I feel comfortable releasing it. Most of the base features are in, but many, such as all the ships sets, events, resources etc, are not included in this first release or are still work in progress. Future updates will be added in such a way that they are unlikely to break your save games (though this cannot be guaranteed).



*Please note: The in-game screenshots have the Real Space mod active (where indicated) to provide better visuals

It is EXTREMELY important that you have subscribed – and have active – both the MEC: Asari and MEC: Mass Relays mods, or this mod will not function as intended


It is VITAL that you have all the required DLC's

Owning the Megacorp DLC is no longer required for the Vol Protectorate and Asari Corporate Interests (Non megacorp versions added for those who don't own the DLC)


ME: Crucible was made with compatibility in mind, as such many mods will work with it. This will allow you, in part, to tailor your experience as you see fit.

Many galaxy generation mods like Real Space are fully compatible due to ME: Crucible’s semi-random galaxy generation.

UI mods like Dynamic UI are partly compatible*

Any mods that add prescripted playable empires will NOT work.

The compatible mods discussion (see below) will be updated as mods are tested.



The required mods can be loaded in any order as they ‘should’ automatically be overridden by the correct files in ME: Crucible. The safer option is to manually put them on top of ME: Crucible in the load order.

All other mods should be put ABOVE of ME: Crucible in the load order. This will ensure none of this mod’s files are not overwritten.

*The only changes to the UI made by ME: Crucible are in the main menus, as such, most UI mods should be compatible. Again, load all UI mods ABOVE this mod!
