Description:
Welcome to the Starforge expansion

Before downloading the mod, I recommend you make a backup of your universe & player files, Starforge is a mod that adds a lot to your universe, monsters, dungeons, quests… Uninstalling it will corrupt some of your planets.

This mod is compatible with Frackin’ Universe and every other mod you can think about.

What is Starforge?


Starforge is a Starbound endgame expansion, adding new & varied content while trying to stay as close to the vanilla style as possible. You will find the Thalasso outpost, full of friendly npcs who will provide you with new unique gear, around ~30 quests, missions, bosses and more!

This teleporter will lead you to a new unique Outpost, where you will meet the crew of the Thalasso, a bunch of lively people who will provide you with quests & rewards! But most importantly, you will also find a Starforge, an extremely rare Ancient crafting station capable of making items more powerful than ever using Ancient Essence and other rare materials

Make use of your Ancient Essence to craft high tier armor, weapons, and materials, and face the new threats looming on the horizon.

New, rare loot monsters made their way into the universe


But now, how do I use the Starforge? Well, once you visited the Thalasso Outpost and went underground to the Ancient Temple, you will find the crafting station laying there, waiting for you to use it. But at first you’ll only be able to craft materials, in order to obtain blueprints you’ll have to hunt rare loot monster scattered everywhere in the galaxy.

Jootyfish, found on Ocean planets, floating around the sky.
Roboblin, found on Midnight planets, roaming around the surface.
Florant, found on Jungle planets, crawling in caves near the surface.
Novalime, found on Savannah planets, bouncing around everywhere.
Cacochius, found on Moons, haunting the skies.
Potlot, found on Mutated planets, hiding where it can.
Warmonger drone, found on Tundra planets, patrolling the skies.
Additionally, you can rarely find all of them in Volcano & Scorched planets.

Hunting them may reward you with blueprints to craft unique, endgame armors at the Starforge, each themed after a vanilla race!

New threats and encounters


But Starforge isn’t only about cool armors and unique weapons. Starforge brings new threats and encounters to the universe. From the Yukai, a Hylotl sub-species corrupted by their anger, to the Unbound, a new Apex faction aiming to evolve beyond the stars.


The Unbound is the main antagonist of the Starforge mod, led by a mysterious leader, they are seeking the Godforge to evolve beyond the star. They have access to a large variety of armors and ranged weapons, and will not hesitate to attack on sight. Encounter them on planets, fight them in missions, steal their precious resources, and slay their bosses.


As stated above, the Yukai is a Hylotl sub-species, instead of evolving towards the path of peace they vowed to never forgive what the Florans did to them. Shamans, warriors, the Yukai learned new techniques that could surprise you when facing them. They have unique armors, weapons, and structures that you can find primarily on Lava planets.


The Tide is an otherworldly plane of existence in which lies both beautiful and dangerous fauna & flora. Warped on planets by the Yukai hylotls, this mini-biome is full of unique items, monsters, encounters, and more! Discover the wonders of Tidal Frost, the new element added with the mini-biome, and have a glimpse of what the Tide has in store for you in the future!


Starforge also adds randomly generated Combat Rifles, Borderlands style!
Each Manufacturer has its own quirks! With a large selection of parts, you can find more than 7 million different rifles, with different alt fires, barrel types, elements etc… And each weapon part influence the weapon stats & rarity!

The current manufacturers are (from left to right) :

Vitrium Industries : All of their weapons fires elemental crystals, exploding after a short delay.
Elpis Elements : Elpis is the master of elements, all of their weapons inflicts status effects.
Pachinko Hardlight : Kills with Pachinko weapons drop orbs that give buffs depending on the weapon element, fire is a damage boost, and ice is a defence boost!
