One of the main reasons why people held off on the Remaster was that the base price of nearly $40 bucks may be a hurdle too far compared to what you're getting. There is a brand new, 33-stage Challenge Mode with a unique setup, as well as additional gamemodes - have you, for instance, ever tried to play Homeworld in CTF-style? ![]() We got listed as one of the Top5 Mods for Homeworld Remastered. The Kadeshi, Turanic Raiders, and (soon) Taiidan now have Single-Player missions. The Progenitors have their own Fleet Command voice. We took advantage of the new textures to remake many existing units in HD, as well as design brand new ones like the Taiidan Battleship. We added new systems such as A chievements and Ship Naming. In the 6 years that we have been hammering away at the Remastered edition of the FXmod we have been able to do many things. Mod releases began to be localized in English, and the 8 available races were being fleshed out into fully playable factions - each with their own distinct units, abilities, and playstyles. Since its initial release many things have changed: Most of the people that stood at the basis of the FX:Commander mod left, and the work was picked up and continued by a new generation with an increasingly international character. The FXmod fulfilled one of the most requested features at the time: to bring the classic Kushan, Taiidan, Turanic Raiders and Kadeshi from Homeworld1 to Homeworld2. The project began back in 2004 as a simple port made by a group of space enthusiasts on a Chinese community website (9ccn), and in 2006 the first release saw the light of day. The FXmod was ( and is) an ongoing attempt to tell the story of the 8 main races from the Homeworld Universe in one game, and bring back that sense sense of raw, sheer excitement that defined Homeworld1 (Classic) for many of us. Read on to (re)discover Homeworld and continue your past adventures in the modern day FXmod. Today we would like to revisit where it all began, and invite those of you who didn't make the jump to the Remaster yet to come join us - the franchise is 90% off on Steam and GOG, and we are giving away 3 Copies of Homeworld:Remastered on our Discord server (see the bottom of this post). Not too long after this moment it also will have been six years since the old FX:Commander mod migrated to the Remastered edition and continued under a new name: FX Galaxy. In February 2021 it will have been exactly six years since the Homeworld:Remastered Edition was released by Gearbox. ![]()
