Introduction
The FX Mod is a modification for Homeworld2 led by the 9CCN Team, a group of Chinese modders who are known for their work on the popular Gundam SEED modification.
The goal of the FX mod is to bring back all races from Homeworld1 and add a ton of changes to the current Homeworld2. Examples include new units, special abilites, textures, maps, player modes and more!
The current playable races are the Hiigaran, Vaygr, Taiidan, Kadeshi, Progenitors and Turanic Raiders, each with their own advantages, technology tree and units. The Bentusi are currently being developed and are said to be 'three races in one'.
The current version of the FX mod is v1.81 - New Hope since it marks the beginning of adding all long-awaited features like military ranking system, re-textured ships, fleet color support, Single-Player campaign and more.
Even with the amount of awesome changes that have been made so far the creators say the entire FX concept is done for 50%. Many people have marked this mod as their favorite modification for Homeworld2 when v1.72 got released, and it only gets better!

Latest News: Forum Relocated

First of all, this isn't advertising as it concerns the relocation of the homepage/forum of this modification. I just post it to inform all people watching/tracking this mod. Thanks for understanding.
If you have clicked the homepage link you probably ended up a fairly dead FX forum with no topics to reply to. The FX Community has been dormant for some time now, and without realising I uploaded the mod here while we were planning to remake the forums at a different host at the same time. My bad, we all make mistakes which is what we are humans for.
Long story short, we have just finished the construction of a brand new forum, this time running on the latest IPB version, 2.3.4. I'd like to alert all people interested in this mod or tracking it we have a new forum -- with not much content yet as I finished it 2 hours ago -- that will be the new home for the official FX Discussion Community.
There are ton of things to do which will be included within the next few days. So don't worry about the forums looking plain, it'll change soon. For now, please sign up. Thanks in advance.

excellent mod i just played it and if in later versions if you add voices to the new ships it would be even better
This is rly 1 hell of a mod
It is good to see this kind of stuff brouth bk to the game
I never tought playing with Kadesh, taidan or the Projenitor races
You guys put 1 hell of a job here and for that i congrat you for your work
Keep it going and i hope to see more from this mod ;)
the only thing i have to say that is bad is the in-game coms from the ships
i know u guys still working on it but, with the voices takes out the realism of the battles :P
i hope u guys have a solution, but untill then ill wait for further advances in this mod ^^
An excellent mod, allows for great battles to take place. Really adds to and enhances HW2 a lot.
The FX v 1.72 is very good and I cann play it on Vista with no problem.
But the mod FX 1.81 is bad. I cannot play on XP And Vista. if I make a skirmish game, after the game charching is full I return immediatly on windows :(
you should have done something wrong with/patching, installing or whatever. Remove other mods if you can. it happened to me too.
And I'm sure they've played their own mod once so it's not bad.
You forgot to update the site link in the description, lol.
there is, and ships from HW:cata won't be included because it's non-canon...BUT (there always is a but), the bentusi WILL contain somtaaw ships, because in hw:cata we can find out that some of their ships are bentusi-related
Nothing regarding this matter has been confirmed by 9CCN yet, but as the Somtaaw Acolyte is based on the Bentusi Superacolyte it IS possible the Bentusi MAY have some Somtaaw ships ;)
Nice Mod....
I'm Downloading it ...Ho whant's to play with me Private Mesaje.
