(-United Sci-Fi Races-)

Description
This mod is an effort to combine sci-fi related races in one place. The plan is to create, combine, improve and revive portraits from all available science fiction mods specifically the ones that are no longer updated by their creators. It is an independent mod with focus mainly on portraits. Now there are 220+ races (120+ animated) and increasing. This mod as most other mods is not compatible with achievements.

Content
Current, but not final Sci-Fi sections and animated portraits are listed below:
• Babylon 5 – 1 animated (narn);
• Mass Effect – about half animated (from EDI, prothean to geth, kett)
• Star Wars – about half animated (mirialan, zabrak, twi’lek, togruta, sith, chiss, sullustan, jawa, rodian, neimodians, duros)
• Star Trek – all races animated;
• Miscellaneous races – na'vi from Avatar, xenomorph, terminator, 2 Star Gate races and 3 PlanetSide factions animated, protoss;
• Special Stellaris races – all (contingency, unbidden, robots, swarm) races animated;
• Halo – Cortana, UNCS, prehuman, covenant races;
• Doctor Who – all races static;
• Warhammer 40k – all races static;
• XCOM – all races static.
• Fantasy - all races animated.

There are also included name lists and planets/systems, but other modifications (prescr. empires, race traits, overhauls, predefinitions) are NOT included as my idea is to make it as universal as possible. If you need additional traits, you can get them from this awesome mod inspired by various sci-fi themes.

Random spawning and type of races
Random spawning is set to No, so You can decide what races are included in your game. See links to patches:
Activates randomisation for all races;
Activates randomisation ONLY for animated races (static ones are hidden) .

Current mod adds races in sections by default considered as for organic races by game, but if you want to play a custom race from this pack as robotic empire (for example, borg, geth and etc.,) subscribe following patch mod United Sci-Fi races: Robots.

Conflicting mods
Mass Effect Theme Pack – overwrites Mass Effect races;

Also:
Please see also what content of other mods were used for this mod in specific discussion thread. You may also suggest races from outdated mods or new race you have been looking for. No promises, but I consider each suggestion and appreciate your feedback. If You like it, please rate it :).

Naturally I cannot cover all Sci-Fi races/factions, but I will do as much possible from my side to create, animate and improve current mod content that we all could enjoy this awesome game mixed with other sci-fi themes.

Please check out my mods:
United Sci-Fi races (200+ races)
United Traits (70+ traits)
Extended Vanilla Clothes (1100+ clothes)
United Sci-Fi: Robots (includes extended SD portraits)
United Flags (various Sci-Fi and other flag collection)
United Small Tweaks (minor changes for gameplay)
Better Map - significantly better display of empires in the map.
Pirates Removed - pirate mechanic disabled.

The fun part is that it's probably super easy to update the mod to work again. Everything in the "gfx" folder works fine, just need to update the files in the "common/species_classes" folder and put the updated files into "common/portrait_sets".

@ph00nix the mod is basically dead, just revive it.

Mod now no longer functional. Removes the 'BioGenesis' category and the robots one removes the 'Machine' category.

@Ph00nix Fugasas hasn't posted a comment since September of 2023, I doubt you'll get a response

"Greetings @Fugasas, I'm writing to you again as a great admirer of your portrait mod. I am currently working on a mod of my own and would be most grateful if I could incorporate your portraits into it. You would, of course, be fully credited with a link to this page. Thank you for your time and consideration."

Yes. Comments contain the link to a forked version that is working. In fact, the comment right before yours is the one you want. Had you taken the time it took you to type out your comment and looked at the existing comments, you'd have saved yourself 7 hours of waiting for an answer.

@fugasas Hello! Have used your mod for some time but I was wondering if I could use a couple of the portraits for another more recently updated portrait mod.
