X-Perience Mod A9/A10 1970
Hello there,
with the release of Alpha 9 the problem occured of outdated, not supported or half-finished mods, that were very fun to play with, so I created this one from the scratch and overhauled nearly everything, including the descriptions.
Without the mods the experience felt at this stage is dropping by a few levels, thus I built this mod on real history as close as possible, changing some values for better gameplay of course, therefore the name "X-Perience".
Full working on all Alpha 9 versions / Usable with Alpha 10, but with limitations (see below info) A-10 Version is now ready: A-10 Mod
Features included:
- Real name companies and product names for each category are implemented!
- Over 2100 possible combinations, with 600 researches and over a 1200 features available.
- Starting year can be choosen from 1970 – 2050 in 5 year steps (only Alpha 9). Every year is filled with several new features, researches and new categories till 2050, filled with some easter eggs for a longer gameplay.
- Harder Difficulty with re-balanced sales for all products. It is not so easy to make billions of money anymore, but still possible.

For starting the mod you have to start a new game, click in the line “X-Perience Mod” on “toggle” on the lower right corner, so that a “Yes” is shown in the field "enabled".
Alpha 9 specific: On the top right corner in the field “Scenario” you have to choose “X-Perience”. Then define the starting year and money.
Update 02.10.2018: This is most likely the last update for the A9 Version. For this I completely overhauled and polished every line of code. I fixed several bugs and mistakes that I found. Also added 3 new categories with many features and researches.
Also I aligned the code from solely working on A9, so that it is possible to start from "1970" for A9 (via scenario) and A10 (via separate dll mod). I intend to change this A9 version to a general version that can be used to start from 1970 for all alphas, as far as compatibility allows me to.
Update 29.10.2018 & 12.01.2019: A9 is only identical with A10 V 1.2. Everything from 1.3 is not included in A9!
The main difference is the starting date from Software (A9/A10 begins from 1970 and A10 only begins from 1980).
Alpha 10 has no longer scenarios, therefore a starting year can no longer be chosen! A comfortable, easy work around for everyone is not possible, so I created a new A10 mod and changed the starting date from every software to 1980.
If you find some bugs, failures or have questions you can post them in the thread.
