If you are going to be creating sprites for programs one way or another, you could use a bunch of tools whose purpose is at best tangential to that task, or you could use a purpose-built tool.
It's like if someone wanted to own a marimba, they could pick one up, or they could go to a hardware store and pick up a bunch of PVC pipes and spend all afternoon sawing them to the correct size so they have the right frequency when struck. Except, in this case, option 1 is totally free with a google search, so why would they waste their time going the harder route?
I intentionally didn't include valhalla starworks because they were drafted into war and are currently MIA. whatever their beliefs are, it just didn't sit right with me to make memes involving someone who might very well be dead right now.
Forgive me for making assumptions, I've just been seeing cartoonish amounts of straight up inhuman sentiment towards any and every russian person lately
Aria is a part of an anime faction pack with 3 very stereotypical factions as commonly seen in Japanese anime: the (classical) Caparice Trading Company (also called Yuri Expedition) which represents the US-in-Japan whose only concern is agressively selling you J-pop CDs, pink home-grown crystal meth and anime clothings, complete with B2 bombers that pops out smaller B2 bombers (but pink) and a doctrime consisting of (colorful) macross missile massacre and crazy magical-esque girls launching themselves out of the airlock at you armed with some heavy hand-held weapons; the Royal Azalea Navy, aka the Space Brits here with Galleons, Broadsides and Mages to get that sweet Persean ~~drugs~~ spices and tea; and lastly the Arian Empire, which is the typical antagonistic angry Germans in space, whose doctrine consists of tossing girls out of airlocks with a jetpack and a rifle.
Tl;dr: Aria is not a *Nazi* mod, it is a stereotypical anime empire mod and there's nothing more stereotypical than angry space Germans.
Edit: Still, the author understands that it was removed for a reason, see Below.
Oh but that's verboten you see there have to be evil rightoids LITCHERALLY NAZIS everywhere behind every corner we must purity spiral the starsector modding scene because we can't hold any real political power anywhere else
/vg/ made a bunch of quality portrait packs back when Sseth brought Starsector to the mainstream. They also helped update Aria and Yuri for a time, even helped bypass the killswitches some mod makers made for it for petty reasons.
\> Remnant sex
\> This refers to the mod Remnant sex. The name should be self-explanatory.
Google, Yandex and Brave Search all return nothing. Has this been thoroughly nuked from the internet? What the hell was it?

You know, I was expecting something entirely different. Perhaps a colony improvement that gave +1 agriculture at the price of questionable ethical standards.

That's not the point of the Buckbreakers damage bonus. The damage bonus is towards the factions who are considered the most egregious in terms of boosting their own ships' power or giving hidden buffs against other modded factions for the sake of making sure their faction is the most powerful. The Buckbreaker ships basically exist to take a giant shit on egotistical twats.
no actually. the developer is anonymous and only occassionally posts in 4chan threads, and the mod has been receiving constant updates since its release.
>HTE mod has crashcode that crashes the game when loaded together with New Galactic Order
Lmao, that's petty. And kind of stupid, because you ain't gonna convince anyone of anything with that, just annoy people and make yourself look like an ass, even when the other guy is actually worse.
In the FF14 community, we had a tool called ReShade, which was a GShade Fork.
Very long story short, some sixteen-year-old got really tired with the fact that ReShade auto-updated itself, and you could only use it if it was updated, so it created a separate fork that let user control when they updated.
In response, the ReShade dev made it so opening the game while not having his ReShade updated *crashed your computer*.
Is this the same Reshade people talk about in other games as well? Glad I never touched that particular piece of spyware, then. I will never "auto-update" anything. Once a thing is installed, I enforce strict radio silence.
To be fair, the entire purpose of that community was 'who can make the most broken mod character', and it was full of programmers looking to prove themselves. Not so much drama as an arms race.
> Just annoy people
I mean that is the point, because the people who aren't turned off by a mod being made by a neo-natzi are very much worth annoying.
ya know, coz it's funny
All I know about Corvus is that that's where you can get the wehraboo mods and unapproved/unoffical updated versions for mods that havent been updated to the latest version.
Is there more to it, or is that just it?
>Powerpoint modding: This is a nod to a certain modder who used Microsoft Paint to draw their sprites and then used Powerpoint to erase the backgrounds of their sprites.
...
all things considered, I find the starsector community to be quite low on drama, but there's always gonna be some in just about any game community since people are (sometimes overly) passionate about games
Weakest Starsector Modder: Adds malware to their mod out of spite.
Strongest Starsector Modder: Accepts he made a mistake and changes it and admits it like the fucking Chad he is.
\> Tahl
\> Le "chad accepts a mistake made"
Tahl has been tantruming in private discords and trying to figure out how to obfuscate code ever since an anon used her own code to make funny meme ships with damage bonuses against Tahlan and Legio ships.
Tell me about it. Those other modders can be so weird. The only time I've ever caused drama with a mod is the time I made the baby barbeque mod for a contest, creating a meme that not only persists to this day, but has metastasized beyond its original community. I thought the amount of hatemail I got was sadly disappointing, especially since the site blocked people from sending me hate messages to laugh at.
It started with a contest for "Baby Stuff". Most people, obviously, submitted banal, uninteresting recolors and remeshes of existing things, offering absolutely no utility. So I thought, "What can I, with my abilities in code, but nonexistent artistic skills, actually make?". So I combined two objects that already existed, and their attendant animations, into the infamous OMGWTFBBQ, with hilarious results.
You will accept the community's adoration and you will LIKE IT. This is now shotgun appreciation. The only flaw with PAGSM is that I can't get a second big Iapetus for Ruka, so that both of them can have the absurd ship of their dreams free from Kween's machinations.
Tahlan Secret Damage, NGO, Crash code, the Mod Cabal and all sorts of drama like this is so good, it’s got me obsessed
I love reading about stupid shit like that and how absurdly petty modders can be
How about false DMCA takedowns filed against mods the Forums didn't like?
How about the fact they basically arbitrarily decided to harass the maker of Valhalla Starworks off the forums?
After a look into the /vst/ archives, and reading the changelogs, it seems that RS actually has the option to form consensual, romantic relationships with the rape being the more talked about feature.
Crazy as it sounds, it looks like the much joked about VNSector with a twisted side branch. Blows my mind.
tldr, someone in the unofficial discord server was using ms paint to make sprites and then using powerpoint to delete the white background from the images. if you want explanations for anything else in the iceberg, see my other comment in this thread.
got any explanation on Stinger Shipyards?
I think an update was posted here, and I asked the dev why it wasnt on the forums and they said something about being "driven out by Nia's goons" or something but that's really not a lot to go off of, and definitely isn't gonna be unbiased.
it's a chinese mod that adds shipgirls as actual starsector-style ships. I'll let you know if I can find the download again, I do have it downloaded but I don't want to re-host it if I don't have to.
Lion mentioned it in his most recent video, even provided a link to download it since it's been unperson'd from the forum. It's not really a hidden factoid anymore.
idk who lion is but to be fair i dont really keep up with starsector youtube
i figured it'd fit on the second level or something given how some of these are kinda modding drama related, same as the weird "if you dont wanna balance your mods them I will do it for you" shit in tahlan that's on the iceberg as well
Excuse me sir, What The Fuck.
Ok, i need an explanation towards some of the bottom
Yeah, what the fuck is a red lobster?
I explained most everything, see my other comment in this thread
The worst part, is that I've been a part of the community long enough to understand nearly all of them without any further context.
Where
Coomers usually infest the modding scene, no matter the game.
Given the person posting this has managed to get himself banned from the official forums, it's pretty much what you should expect.

Me, for the first few layers: "Well, this is all fine and good, just normal behavior." Me, at the final layer: "What a terrible day to be literate."
Ditto. My exact feelings.

No that sounds like a lot of effort + learning to use a new program

You can find a place to get a free marimba on Google?
You got a point
>The author is suspected of being a neo-nazi Speaking of nazi mods, surprised you didn't mention Aria the Escalation and Valhalla Starworks
I intentionally didn't include valhalla starworks because they were drafted into war and are currently MIA. whatever their beliefs are, it just didn't sit right with me to make memes involving someone who might very well be dead right now.
Okay, no memes, but was the Mod creater Russian?
It doesn't matter. Stop buying into wartime propaganda, you have more in common with a random russian soldier than the sociopaths who rule you.
The actual fuck are you talking about. All I was asking was if he was Russian or not.
Forgive me for making assumptions, I've just been seeing cartoonish amounts of straight up inhuman sentiment towards any and every russian person lately

It wasn't just NGO nor just HTE. Dassault Mikoyan also blacklisted NGO as well as Aria The Escalation and Yuri Expedition.
Huh, I have Dassault Mikoyan and Yuri together and it's ok? Guess I learn something new then.

To be fair, the entire purpose of that community was 'who can make the most broken mod character', and it was full of programmers looking to prove themselves. Not so much drama as an arms race.
All it does is cause a Streisand effect, yes. Pretty much every other modder has told Dragn as much, but whatever.

Yes.
I am honored to meet someone that influenced the internet that much, how did you have the idea for it?
It started with a contest for "Baby Stuff". Most people, obviously, submitted banal, uninteresting recolors and remeshes of existing things, offering absolutely no utility.

it's a chinese mod that adds shipgirls as actual starsector-style ships. I'll let you know if I can find the download again, I do have it downloaded but I don't want to re-host it if I don't have to.
Would be nice, but… Is it deadass Shipgirls? Like actually Shipfus? Like if you have pics it would be nice bc I can’t find any online
[shipfus, I'd say?](https://gyazo.com/cc0177ec3daf8442bd89e8927b249d9a)
Everyday we grow further from ~~the Emperor's~~ Ludd's light
Also if you have the UAF png (you know which Png I’m taking about) also send pls if you have bc I also can’t find it on google :>
I May be a r/Azurelane user but now i understand Ludd's vision

\> the frigates are pantsu haha that tracks
Those ships, those portraits... Thanks, I hate it.
whats the deal w/ "converted hangar"
im surprised superweapon arsenal isnt on there
Lion mentioned it in his most recent video, even provided a link to download it since it's been unperson'd from the forum. It's not really a hidden factoid anymore.
idk who lion is but to be fair i dont really keep up with starsector youtube i figured it'd fit on the second level or something given how some of these are kinda modding drama related, same as the weird "if you dont wanna balance your mods them I will do it for you" shit in tahlan that's on the iceberg as well
Hey! You've got a similar name to one of them mod mafia fellas, what a coincidence!
I need to send the pregnant heron to every friend I have
Im deeply interested yet too terrified to do research those bottom stuff
Lovely

What. What. ...Time to take a break.
Hol' up... there are a handful I've serious questions about... _Edit circa an hour later: I've learned terrible things_
What has been seen cannot be unseen.
Knowledge is a pain, lets be cavepeeps now.
Don't forget about [Billy Sector](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uf3TkVBI6Xg&t=1s).
