Hey Guys =) i won't update my Mods anymore cause i keep Stellaris 3.14, sorry! Feel free to use my Mods by your own :D
Clairelenia  [author] 21 Feb @ 6:29pm 
You use the UI overhaul mod? You need it to show such mods properly, otherwise it won't work :) the 800 cluster mod is not an extra galaxy, just another option of the main 800 star galaxy

Clairelenia thanks for information. The only galaxy generation mod I'm using is yours, yet for the clusters the minimum I'm being offered is Bleak and Flourishing 1000. At 800 I'm getting Claire 1 and 2. No matter, I'll just use 1000. Thanks for the awesome mod! :)
Clairelenia  [author] 21 Feb @ 2:51am 
you can have clusters with 800 stars already, too :D but with lower than that amount they don't look good anymore, so 800 is the minimum for clusters =)
dvjames40 20 Feb @ 10:55am 
Has anyone seen the cluster galaxy available than less that 1000 systems or am I overlooking it. I can play at 1000, however my PC isn't such that performs all that well. I love the clusters but ideally with less systems. Thanks for your help.

oof. well, let's hope this works without breaking my save any further.
WildName 21 Dec, 2024 @ 6:33am 
Sadly its broken even with this mod and your suggestion, rip
Clairelenia  [author] 20 Dec, 2024 @ 11:29pm 
The namelist mod does not exist as seperate file/ID anymore. You could use this mod, and it should work again, OR if you dont wan't to use this mod, you could subscribe to this mod, search it in the steam folder and copy the name lists out and create your own mod, it's super easy =) you basically just have to click on "create a mod" in the stellaris launcher and put my namelists into your mod folder with the right directory :D ... then you can also un-sub to my mod again.

But i don't know if a broken save will work then again, usually if a save breaks in Stellaris, it's broken :/
WildName 20 Dec, 2024 @ 10:20am 
@Clairelenia can you just reupload the mod and set is as abbandoned? i really need it because my save file got bricked and took like a month of gameplay:c
.puddi 15 Dec, 2024 @ 5:03pm 
Fair enough. Makes sense.
Clairelenia  [author] 15 Dec, 2024 @ 3:03pm 
I have implemented my namelist into this mod :) exactly this thought > one less mod to manage. Back when i created the first mods, i did not think of combining these 2 😅
Steel Driver 15 Dec, 2024 @ 12:36pm 
I'd assume it's not needed anymore, which I'm definitely fine with. One less mod in my list.
.puddi 15 Dec, 2024 @ 9:39am 
Hey, I love this mod. Just wondering what happened to your namelist that went with it? Seems to not be around anymore.
Clairelenia  [author] 15 Dec, 2024 @ 1:13am 
ahhh okay, thank you for letting me know! I did not know that my mod needs! UI overhaul to work o.o i have to add it to dependecies
TemporalSpace 15 Dec, 2024 @ 12:47am 
That was it! Works now :)
Clairelenia  [author] 13 Dec, 2024 @ 2:40am 
Ahhh i see :D

It could be, that the vanilla Stellaris user interface, without any mods, maybe has problems to show additional galaxy types/sizes and this causes the crash.

If you want, you could try to add <UI overhaul> ... then you put my name mod at 1, the galaxy mod at 2 and the UI overhaul at 3.

This maybe fixes the issues. But i can't promise that :D
TemporalSpace 13 Dec, 2024 @ 2:28am 
I've tried it a few times, and I'm only using this mod with your name list one.

I'll go a little more specific. When I try change the galaxy size from moderate (moderate flourishing, iirc) to the one smaller than that, it crashes. It seems to work fine on the options I can click, so far the moment I'll probably just play on those galaxies, haha. Great mod overall btw :)
Clairelenia  [author] 12 Dec, 2024 @ 9:39pm 
hmmm =) this should not happen. It could be an issue just at the first try playing the game with this mod, try again :D It can also be your mod loading order, do you use UI overhaul for example? My mod has to be before! UI-Overhaul ... and i recommend putting it quite far at top, the first positions.

For example if UI-Overhaul is at top 10, my mod should be at least top 9, but better even further up, top 2 to 3
TemporalSpace 12 Dec, 2024 @ 7:27pm 
Hey, I'm getting a crash when I try to change the galaxy size?
Clairelenia  [author] 4 Dec, 2024 @ 3:42pm 
jea, it just adds new shapes/galaxy sizes/forms =) i also use PD
Siren System 4 Dec, 2024 @ 3:28pm 
does this work with PD?
Clairelenia  [author] 27 Nov, 2024 @ 5:09am 
Only my 2 custom spiral galaxies have stars in the core indeed, jea :D But if you only play in the elliptical one, you should still be able to get up to 5000 stars if you want. I did not want to alter the vanilla galaxies =)
Martarion 26 Nov, 2024 @ 4:52am 
Been looking for an actually updated mod that has bigger galaxies and stars in the core. Do only your custom shapes give stars in the core like picture #2? I generally only like playing on elliptical.
Cup 4 Nov, 2024 @ 6:12am 
I have not had the issue Forecast below has (I've been running this mod with gigastructures for a year now) but there is a rather unfortunate issue - this mod is causing Cosmic Storms to only last 1 day. I feel like it's coming from common/defines but I can't for the life of me find why it would do that, it's not like it overwrites the storm variables. I am 100% sure it is this mod - it happens when this is the sole one activated.
Clairelenia  [author] 30 Sep, 2024 @ 8:51pm 
It's a vanilla mod =) Giga is a massive mod with tons of incompatibilities with other mods, mine probably falls into that too unfortunately
WhatTheForecast 30 Sep, 2024 @ 5:24pm 
This mod seems to be very incompatible with gigastructural engineering. I get to ~30% generation on a 1k flourishing star map and get a CTD. Really interesting mod, though. If I had the knowledge to make a patch for them, I would.
Apostatis 29 Aug, 2024 @ 5:54am 
Hi claire, is this compatible with Gigastructurals?
Southheim 25 Aug, 2024 @ 1:37am 
ty for update
Clairelenia  [author] 7 Aug, 2024 @ 10:10am 
You are welcome! =) i did a 1 year break from the game, i'm sorry for the inconveniences
AFGHAN PSYCHO 7 Aug, 2024 @ 9:57am 
Thanks for the update.
Chungus Amongus 24 May, 2024 @ 8:37pm 
Hi there Claire, this is a beautiful mod!
I would love to see if I can play the spiral galaxies, is this up to date or can we please get one?
killer_klown94 29 Apr, 2024 @ 9:01pm 
broke asf
Red Fang 19 Apr, 2024 @ 1:48am 
This crashed on 3.11... any update to this?
Memento Mori 25 Mar, 2024 @ 6:23pm 
Anyone know if this is compatible with 3.11+?
Salad :) 2 Nov, 2023 @ 9:47am 
Does this break class O stars from gigastructures? they dont produce nearly the same amt of credits
Clairelenia  [author] 14 Oct, 2023 @ 11:39am 
i have 64 GB RAM and a 7 core 4 GHZ processor and it still need 15 minutes to create ^^ the specs of your PC does not matter that much, cause Stellaris is just a little bit old
Keyun 14 Oct, 2023 @ 9:47am 
What specs need for gargantuan galaxy
Shin 14 Oct, 2023 @ 4:52am 
Does this mod disable achievement ?
Clairelenia  [author] 13 Oct, 2023 @ 8:46am 
jea, i also use PD ^^
Musashi 13 Oct, 2023 @ 12:34am 
is it compatible with Planetary diversity???
TheChaserG 21 Sep, 2023 @ 12:26pm 
Is this compatible with Gigastructural Engineering & More and Planetary Diversity pack?
Clairelenia  [author] 11 Jun, 2023 @ 3:29pm 
Hmm u mean in the data file? Or in the game galaxy creation?

If u wanna change it in the data file, it's no issue, you just could get easily blocked off cause moderate galaxies just have 500 stars ^^
dreameaterx 11 Jun, 2023 @ 3:01pm 
Will it be fine if I change fallen empires in moderate size from 3 to 4 or is it going to cause issues ?
Clairelenia  [author] 30 May, 2023 @ 9:55am 
Have fun and enjoy! :D
Marcus Arabela 30 May, 2023 @ 9:30am 
Thanks, Clairlenia! I'm really loving the new additions. Trying out the cluster galaxy with my new play-through I'm starting.
Clairelenia  [author] 29 May, 2023 @ 3:27am 
hey guys <3 i have finally found the right path to add fitting names for my galaxy shapes in the "Start a new game"-screen

From now on you will find my 3 galaxy shapes in the galaxy shape tab under these names:

- Claire's Spiral Galaxy I (This shape is Image 1)
- Claire's Spiral Galaxy II (This shape is Image 2)
- Claire's Cluster Galaxy (This shape is Image 3 and 4)

enjoy <3 it's really a nice quality of life enhancement :D
apw2 27 May, 2023 @ 11:30am 
Managed to fix it with a different mod for scattered everyone evenly. The issue is actually with vanilla, no matter what option you select you are always near other players. With this mod and the larger scale maps it just becomes every so more apparent.
Clairelenia  [author] 26 May, 2023 @ 8:58pm 
Player Distribution? ^^ hmm i never played in Multiplayer before, but can you choose a random position as start? When u choose random, the odds are much higher to spawn in the core cause there are like 70% of all stars xD

If that happens, you maybe need to re-start a few times until u both spawn far away from each other :)
apw2 26 May, 2023 @ 12:32pm 
Can you fix the player distributions? When me and my friend play, when we select distributed players we always start next to each other on these map sizes. We want to be on opposite sides of the map really
Clairelenia  [author] 20 May, 2023 @ 5:02pm 
Stellaris is old and not optimized ^^ it also only uses 1 processor core =) so there are massive software limitations
