All of the dependencies are in content.xml for each mod. Fish people is the Boron dlc. You can try changing it to optional and it should mostly work since that faction is pretty separated.

The github page for the Gallente faction lists nothing under the required mods section.

The in game menu lists DeadAirJobs as a required mod. Which one is right?

I am terrible at maintaining read-me and forum posts. The patch notes and the actual mods are where i put most of my effort. Apologies for any confusion.

will these mods work with the reemergence mod map

or will they only work on the vanilla map ?

Hello,

I installed the eve faction mods, and noticed that several of them overlap on the map with other mods that add sectors. I think the main conflict is with XPANed Sectors Advanced on nexusmods. I am also using X Universe + on steam, but I don't think those sectors are the ones in conflict. The only faction that I didn't see any conflicts with was Amarr.

Here's the minor changes I made, I hope it didn't screw up any game logic. I think I just changed the positions on the map.
The connections with <!--comments--> are the ones I changed. It wasn't that many sectors.

The minmatar ones I had to move quite a bit, there were 4 sector overlaps so I put some notes in the comments as I figured out what to do.

And I didn't see anything for Amarr.

It seems to have fixed the sector overlaps. I figured I'd post what I did since I searched the thread for any other mentions of XPANed conflicts and I didn't see anything. So if anyone else wants to make these minor changes, it's just a couple of integers.

They would probably work but would need some editing to fix overlap on the map.

Well done. I don't plan on making compatibility patches or changes to my positioning for other mods but it's always nice seeing people find solutions. I'm always happy to answer specific questions though so feel free to ask if you need any help.

I'm having issues installing DeadAir Fill. I've downloaded the zipped master folder from Github and they all seem to validate correctly in the extensions screen apart from DeadAir Fill which upon launch, modifies the folders to the following:

https://ibb.co/R44gw06
After fresh install and before game launch
https://ibb.co/V34FQfZ
Folders split after game launch
https://ibb.co/WzsrwwX
Extensions screen after game launch
https://ibb.co/T2dn5J7
Folder structure after game launch

Has anyone had this before? I've tried re-installing a few times, renaming the folders, etc. Not sure if it even impacts it working in-game but wanted to check.

The description page of that mod says it is not compatible with DeadAir's Eve mods.

Looks like it's getting grabbed by steam workshop when you install the github version since it has the ws_id in the content file. The folder name for fill isn't important iirc but if you specifically want the github version (I think they are the same) then unsub from the ws version, install from the zip, and change the content id to be DAFill or something similar.

Folder names are only really important for when assets (ships, icons, textures, etc) are added that need a declared filepath.

ahh, didnt see that, had the emergence map for a while so didnt read. Too bad as I do like that map

[DeadAirRT]

I will just put a PSA put ahead of time

7.0 beta likely broke every single one of my mods
Even mods that still mostly function will have missing features.
Sir nukes mod api appears to not be working as well.

I do not plan on trying to maintain beta compatibility as it would take a substantial amount of time each patch to review freshly broken stuff. Once it is more stable then I will be testing my newest project that I have worked on for the past 5 months.

If you are on 6.2 and would like to help test stuff (and don't mind broken saves) then feel free to help me test deadair_eco and deadair_scripts on my github. As always, readme's are the lowest priority below improving my mods, writing in-depth patch notes, and testing my code for plenty of situations. If you have any questions feel free to ask me on the egosoft discord in the modding channel or on here.

You can use the two mods together, I tried it. The problem is some of the Eve sectors are overwritten by emergence. For example, the Caldari home sector has an emergence sector spawned over the top of it. They both show up on the map, offset by a few pixels but the Caldari sector is not selectable. This makes me wonder if the jumpgates still work though. There was also a couple sectors from Amarr overwritten. I didn't check them all.

So they're not completely incompatible but who knows what bugs appear after you play like that for several hours.

Hmmm now im interested does it include some new stuff for asset folder ?? ( meaning ships ) for example
