Star Wars Genesis 8.1.0 Patch Notes

Wanted to get a lot of my gripes out of the way this patch so I can focus on the Rebel storyline. Key thing being the new simplified installer, a way to get Clone Trooper armor, an immersive Lodge, and an improved Jetpack mod (+ a few other stuff)

Simplified Mod Installer
  • We now have a setup.exe file that does the initial setup for you (3 folders, compiler, wabbajack, etc),
  • Users that are updating will have to move their downloads folder in their current install into the newly created Star Wars Genesis\Game\downloads folder
Star Destroyers
  • Added Star Destroyer set pieces above Coruscant,
  • Added Star Destroyer set piece over the Vigilance. If you attack it, the real Vigilance will still come out
  • NOTE: These are SET PIECES. They have no collision and are just there for looks for now. They WILL get collision in the future after I have properly tested them and make sure they don’t break your game
Jetpacks
  • Made my own jetpack mod to replace our old buggy one from 2023. Works in conjunction wiith a script based jetpack mod
  • Works out of the box with no hotkeys required
  • You can horizontally hover while slightly going up over time by holding spacebar. This creates a sort of mini-game to maintain horizontal height without going too high
  • You can continue vertically climbing by simply holding down and not letting go of spacebar
  • Unfortunately this depends on gravity until I figure something out. That means you will ascend faster in some planets over others. I tried to create a good balance for every type of gravity situation
  • Console Command Runner has been re-added to Genesis in order to make this jetpack mod possible
Clone War Remnants
  • Added a unique crashed ship location on Geonosis with a lootable dead Clone trooper squadron
  • 4 New Phase 1 Clone Trooper Armors (Clone Trooper, Clone Pilot, Clone Commander, Clone Captain)
  • You can expect more unique locations like this after I finish up some storylines. I love creating stuff like this and filling up the empty galaxy.
Coruscant Lodge
  • Light touchups on the Coruscant Lodge as the sailing ships were like the only vanilla thing left on Coruscant;
  • Replaced single holo-books that had visible gaps with more detailed holo-book library
  • Replaced sailing ships and other earthly historical items with Star Wars decorations
  • I will return and do a full revamp in the future
Immersion
  • Rebel ships will no longer spawn in orbit around Imperial planets,
  • Imperial ships will no longer spawn in orbit around Rebel planets,
  • This means that if you have an Imperial bounty and go to Dantooine orbit, then you will no longer be attacked
Biomes
  • Completely revamped the biomes and procedural generation in the modlist, removing outdated mods and relying solely on the new GrindTerraverse series. This makes things a lot more simpler on my part and I have full confidence in the author of GrindTerraverse to continue cooking. He is the ONLY mod author continuously working on and updating the procedural generation.
Movement Improvements
  • Running speed reduced to ~87% of vanilla, so it uses the ‘jog’ animation over the ‘run’
  • ADS speed reduced to the same speed as walk
  • Sneak run is ~20% faster, sneak ADS is now the same as vanilla sneak walk
  • You can now run while blocking with a melee weapon
Performance
  • Better engine load optimization (Starfield Engine Fixes update)
  • Replaced the 30 FPS pause menu with a 120 FPS one (should help with menu lag apparently)
  • Replaced oversized kitchen flask replacement that was glitching inside many interiors and possibly causing instability
Blasters
  • Fixed outdated leveled lists for countless new blasters
  • Balanced CR-2 fire rate properly
  • Balanced EE-4C fire rate properly
More Hairstyles
  • Starfarer’s Hairstyles has been incorporated into the modlist
  • Ombre Hairstyles have been incorporated into the modlist
Misc.
  • Removed Starfield logo from Pause->Settings Menu,
  • Added collisions to a few objects in Coruscant Spaceport
  • Boba Fett female armor morphs
  • Pyke outfit fixes
  • Detailed Reference Info (getref) re-added
  • Bug fixes and other changes in Tatooine/Mos Eisley
