Adding a custom race - DW2MC/DW2ModLoader GitHub Wiki

Adding a usable custom race to the game currently takes a couple of steps:

  1. Get and install the ModLoader
  2. Get and unpack the Custom Races Enabler to your mods directory.
  3. Edit races.xml in the data folder, adding your new race at the bottom. Make sure to change the to the next unused ID (20 in the unmodded base game). This should be enough for the new race to show up in the New Game screen.
  4. For the new race to be able to build any ships or stations, they need to be set up in ShipHulls.xml and there currently is no convenient way to do this. You can try the official Data Editor, writing a custom script or lots of copy&paste and find&replace.
