Much More Galaxy Shapes
Much More Galaxy Shapes
Provides more Galaxies for Stellaris. Adds 24 new galaxy shapes. This mod does not alter the appearance in any way! (Some of the shots are in Vanilla as you may notice)
This is a submod of my other mod Much More Galaxies which just adds the shapes. Why is this interesting? Well, maybe you just want the shapes. The other reason may be that this mod plays nicer with other mods which adds more sizes like Huge Galaxies. Just put this mod over the other one and voila!
The following shapes are added (in alpahbetical order; see also Screenshots above):
- Barred Spiral (SBa and SBc types[en.wikipedia.org]
- Clusters (2,3**, 4*, 6 & 8**)
- Cross
- Disk**
- Dragon Tail*
- Fan (3 & 4)
- Gear
- Irregular (Type 1,2* & 3)
- Snowflake (4 & 6)
- Square
*) inspired by More Natural Looking Galaxies
**) inspired by Galaxy Shapes
Version V 0.0.2
Compatibility: This mod does nothing fancy just adds scenarios and shapes. (It overwrites map/galaxy/galaxy_shapes.txt and adds files to map/setup_scenarios). No graphical or other things involved, so it should
be compatible with nearly every other mod)
Also this submod exists is to play nicer with similar mods which add more sizes, since it only uses the standard ones. Just place this mod above the other and the shapes should get loaded.

This mod draws inspiration (and some settings) from nature and:
More Natural Looking Galaxies
Bigger Sliders
Galaxy Shapes
Definitely check them out especially if you want bigger Galaxy sizes or Graphical improvements! I don’t support more than 2.5k because a 10k Galaxy only is good for the memes as most PCs will have trouble with them in
more recent versions of Stellaris.
Btw: if you like how the Galaxies looks check out my Fireworks mod or the original Pinwheel Galaxy mod by Agami
