Description:

Using this mod requires more than just subscribing to it. Please follow the install instructions below.

This mod contains some custom assets I created for 5X – The Ultimate Balance Mod. In particular it has alternate ship icons for the hulls added in v4.0 as well as custom planet icons for the added uber biomes and a couple ship modules. I’ve also included the custom assets used in Morpheus’s Diverse Specials and Massive Planets mod (DSMP is not required for this mod). This mod does not change the gameplay in any way; the custom assets are a visual change only.

Installation instructions:

  • Subscribe to the mod.
  • Find the mod’s location on your computer. To do this, navigate to the Steam install folder (on Windows, this is located somewhere like C:Program Files (x86)Steam), and then go to steamappsworkshopcontent2980501348895422. Alternately, run a search on your computer for 1348895422.
  • Method 1 (Windows and Linux): Run the Java installer, which is the file named javaInstaller5XAssets.bat (for Windows) or javaInstaller5XAssets.sh (for Linux). Type 1 and hit Enter. After the process completes, the mod is installed and ready for use.
  • Method 2 (manual installation): Extract the Custom 5X Assets.zip file. From the Steam installation folder, navigate to SteamsteamappscommonMaster of OrionMasterOfOrion_DataStreamingAssets (alternately, locate the Master of Orion install folder on your computer and go to MasterOfOrion_DataStreamingAssets) and copy the assets folder you extracted from the zip here, merging it with the existing assets folder. The mod is then ready for use.

When using this mod, it should be moved below 5X in the mods menu in game, and it should be active.

I’m open to adding more custom assets to MoO, but my photoshop skills are very limited. If you have any special requests for custom assets (2D ones like icons and banners only), I can see about adding them. If you feel you could create and contribute your own custom icons to this mod, I would be happy to include them!

Thanks to WhatIsSol for writing the java installer.
