Earth?

[sereus_alpha]

is there a mod out there that makes earth a reachable destination?
i destroyed the terren fleet(finaly) and i went for teh gate but then nothing happend as i flew through it... is there a fix for this?

[KanineLupus]

I think our solar system has been added in both the XFP & XTM mods ...is not available in the Vanilla game ...maybe setting things up for an extension package or for X4

You can reach Earth and see the old planet in all its splendor in the XTM 0.7a mod. Aswell as other planets in our solar system. If I were you I would get the mod as soon as possible! It doubles X3's value in many respects.

thx i installed the Xtended mod but when i go to load the save that has already beaten the game it tells me it is corupt and when i go to heritic's end with a new file, a free universe or one of the XTM start types the gate isint there... so now that i have the Xtended mod and i am flying around... how do i get to earth?

Activate the "Add Terrans to Non Plot Game" -Option in the AI-Menu.

If you're playing a non-plot game you have to go to <Options>, then choose <Gameplay>. Scroll down to Artificial Life. Select it and press Enter. Somewhere in the list you see an option to "activate Terrans in non-plot game". Set in to "yes". After you have done this the gate to Earth will appear in Heretics End.

They aren't friendly are they?
XTM 06 had Terran Stations and so does 07 i think, whats the point unless the Terrans are friendly to you?

@Achatos - is the the definitive music guide you've got there?

If it is cooooool!

[Cycrow]

any mod that adds earth would require a restart, you cant play them in your existing save game

Really? how so ? I'm sure my game is still only worth the £20 I paid for it...

I think it would be more accurate to say it add a lot more depth to the game AND a great deal of longevity.

Value... I think not


As for adding earth to you're game its a very two sided argument ! Do you want X3 to simulate the galaxy as we know it ? or... have it completely different so as to let your imagination run wild ?

Do you want X3 to simulate the galaxy as we know it ?

3 points

1) X3 simply can't simulate (not even basic space dynamics)
2) gates do not exist (fortunately)
3) We know too little about our planet, solar system... galaxy is asking far too much. (We jump out from the trees and started walking on ground a couple days ago).

So the only one solution is ... imagination... nothing will beat that.



BTW... who want go to Earth? For sure that is not a wise conscious decision.

There are 4 files I still don't recognize. The rest should be pretty much complete now.

Very funny. I guess you know that I meant 'playing value'.
