ADDONS
=============================================
Welcome to the optional addons section of Sins of a Galactic Empire. This archive contains the following addons:
200% Health Boost: Doubles the health and passive regeneration of all ships.
Tougher AI / Nightmare AI: These two addons increase the AI's difficulty; Tougher makes it much harsher, while Nightmare makes the AI into an absolutely brutal machine. You may only activate one of these two addons at a time.
HoloNet Offline: Removes the ability to jump between planets via culture stations for all factions save the Yuuzhan Vong.
Hyperspace Anywhere: This allows a player to jump from any one planet to another, assuming it can be seen at all, and this works on both random and premade maps.
Hyperspace Interdiction Modification: This makes gravity well generators slow up the hyperspace charge-up of ships rather than prevent them from entering hyperspace.
Reduced Weapon Ranges / Extremely Reduced Weapon Ranges: This reduces the range of all weapons by 50% and 70%, respectfully. You may only activate one of these two addons at a time.
Imperial VSD-I and Venator: This gives the Empire access to the Victory I-class and Venator-class Star Destroyers.
Invulnerable Supercap Factories: This makes all Supercap Factories indestructible.
In order to use these, first extract the contents of this archive to your Sins mod directory. After this, one must once again edit EnabledMods.txt, and place the addon above the main mod in the list like so:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
TXT
Version 0
enabledModNameCount 3
enabledModName "SoGE Addon - Nightmare AI"
enabledModName "SoGE Addon - Reduced Weapon Ranges"
enabledModName "SoGE 4.11.1"
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The blank line must be present in order for the game to read the EnabledMods.txt file correctly.
In addition, all of these addons are compatible with one and other, unless otherwise stated, aka. you can run them all at the same time.

NOTES
=============================================
If you are new to SoGE, or feel somewhat overwhelmed by the sheer amount of different types of planets present, fire up the "Planet Sampling" map to get a feel for the mod's variety.
This release contains fully playable factions for the Rebel Alliance, Galactic Empire, Confederacy of Independent Systems, Galactic Republic, New Republic, and Yuuzhan Vong Empire.
Since it is a total conversion this mod does not contain the stock races (Advent, Vasari, TEC). If you want Star Wars races with the standard Sins races check out Star Wars: Interregnum at Moddb.com
If you would like to participate in the development of the mod we can definitely use your help!
However we are looking for skilled individuals to help with the mod; riggers, modellers, skinners, and UI/icon art work. Please contact Lavo on moddb or post on the development forum if you feel that you can help us.
Check the moddb page for updates on news, new content or official patches.
