Hello everyone!
The progress on 1.1 update to Settlers is well underway. We have revamped how all of our quests work, and it's the right time I say Thank you for all of the support!
You may be aware of a Bounty quest type introduced by this mod. We have now made significant improvements, and it's the best opportunity to allow YOU to be a part of the game. Bounty targets now fetch their ...
Finally available for RimWorld 1.1, with new content too!
Vanilla Furniture Expanded - Spacer module adds several new pieces of furniture to allow players to witness better technological progress in regards to comfort and utility furniture. Repair shelves, Biolab sunlamps and reinforced walls will spice your colony up, whilst illuminated dressers and end tables as well as advanced beds will provide your pawns with highest possible comfort silver can buy.
Hello and welcome everyone to another mod development diary.
Don't worry about us and Corona Virus - beautiful part of modding is that it isn't affected by social isolation. In fact, one could say I was practicing isolating for years now.
We are working hard at updating the last of Vanilla Factions Expanded mods to 1.1.
We wouldn't be ourselves if we didn't use this moment to add some cool content to it. I have decided to split this dev diary into two separate ones - One ...
After all the mods we have already created, it was finally time to retouch the vanilla factions. I was always a big fan of Rimsenal (other mods are available), but I personally never found it quite fitting. The game however was in dire need of new faction mods, hence we decided to deliver. The scope of the mod is similar to Rimsenal - a unique faction alongside new items and mechanics.
The first iteration of this mod, Medieval faction, is a missing link between tribals and out...

Helixien gas is a new dirty fuel type available in Vanilla Power Expanded. A large sized map will contain between one to three Helixien Gas vents. Once a pump is constructed, it needs to be connected to other structures of this chain using gas pipes - which work in a similar way to cables. Helixien gas can be used to...

Vanilla Textures Expanded is a full-scale overhaul of vanilla (unmodded) RimWorld textures, with its main aim being not only to fix less aesthetically pleasing textures, but also to bring vanilla aesthetic in-line with that of Vanilla Expanded mod series.
This texture pack includes over 450 textures remade in vector-based software (same method used for Vanilla Expanded mods), exported into 2x the size of vanilla textures. What used to be blurred before, now will be sharp and crisp, ...

What makes you want to play with Combat Extended? What do you hate about vanilla combat? How would you change combat (both ranged weapons and melee) to be more in...
Hey there!
As we are coming closer and closer to release for Vanilla Textures Expanded, I have prepared the final animated infographics for you to see what has been changed.
We will of course keep adding new textures as time goes on.

RimWorld: Witcher Monster Hunt is a standalone mod adding 16 new monster encounter quests to vanilla game. Quests vary in difficulty and provide unique rewards, giving you a taste of what it’s like to be the Witcher on the Rimworld.
All monster descriptions and quest text have been written with RimWorld universe in mind - you can notice mentions of Glitterworld scholars trying to understand the basilisk venom, or imperial soldiers lost to a golem. This mod, just like any other mod...

Hello everyone and welcome!
RimWorld has received a brand new expansion today. With my NDA lifted I can now confirm I was the graphic designer behind it, working closely with Ludeon Studios to provide you guys with something unique, never-before seen in the form of any mods experience.
With this expansion, you will be able to maintain a relationship with a Space faring civilisation known as the Empire. Learn new psychic spells, partake in imperial quests and advance in the ranks...

Hey everyone!
This week we will focus on something different. If you were to choose your favourite Vanilla Expanded mod, which one would it be and why?
Updating to 1.1 is a tremendous amount of work, hence we try to prioritise certain mods. Your feedback can help us with that.

RimWorld update is coming, and we are hard at work at porting things over so they are ready for release. Currently all the other mod development is halted - don't expect ANY new releases until we update all the mods for the new RimWorld version. Sorry for that guys and gals but there are things more important.
It's a perfect opportunity to create a little recap of what we managed to achieve during the reign of 1.0. We have released a large number of mods, listened ...

Hello everyone! I know, I know, it's a bit late, but better late than never!
In today Typical Tuesday Suggestions thread our focus is on belt item type. We are developing a new mod which will not only allow you to toggle the visibility of belts on the character (making them show up on the correct layer on the pawn is actually very tricky), but also adding new belt items.

Hello everyone!
For some time now I've been working close with Neceros and SmashPhil, authors of the SRTS mod. For those of you who are unaware what that mod is, it's a great addition to late game providing players with means of transportation other than drop pods. You can build a short range transport ship, fill the tank with chemfuel and travel the world, raiding, pillaging, burning, trading and exploring!
The textures of the original mod somewhat lack in the vanilla vibe and ...

I have worked hard on creating a new background image to go along the religions expanded mod. Why? Because having laid such foundations helps me to create a mod development document. This document then will be subjected to brainstorming, resulting in the best possible mod delivered right to your doorstep, for free.

After the success of our Vanilla Factions Expanded - Medieval, which was a faction mod closing the gap between tribal faction and outlander faction, we have begun work on another faction mod - this time adding frontier settlers, inspired by western films. The scope of this mod is quite similar to our Medieval mod, so you can expect it to be a well fitting mini-expansion.
Thanks to Vanilla Factions Expanded - Settlers, you can experience the harsh reality of being a gang of bandits o...
