“Serious” Races mod Once again I would like to share with you a mod I use to replace original races pictures. I really appreciate the great variety of nice races “Distant World” provides to a player. But to me they seem to look a little bit like toys (no offense to the makers of this great game!) which is fun, but doesn't work best for sci-fi atmosphere I like. Personally I prefer races to look more intelligent and serious (yes, even “Attuk” one! :-)). Also I'd like them to look more “scientific” and generally more convincing. So with a help of Google I searched through hundreds of artworks. I chose about a hundred of images which looked interesting but not familiar to me. I cropped and resized them to 300x300 pixels and did little colour grading to some of them. Then I sorted them by race families and chose 22 of them which fit best in my opinion to replace original ones. Preview On the left there are original races, and on the right their replacements. (Please take a note that I didn't do any “foreground vs background” cuts to them). [image]local://upfiles/42922/9CF04E10A1FE4564ACE2574D56B756CC.jpg[/image]
