Emperor of the Fading Suns Enhanced v1 51-DINOByTES

Emperor of the Fading Suns has continued to inspire players not just because of the game itself, but because of the many great mods fans made for the game. The focus of the 1.5 patch is to greatly enhance modding capabilities. Expect many more great mods for the game.

One of the most dramatic changes is one of the least seen. The game was initially built using the Watcom development environment, and one of the first things we had to do was migrate it to Visual Studio. Additionally, the 1.5 patch adds:

• Significantly enhanced and added significant modding capabilities. This allows modders to add dramatically more units, technologies, and worlds, and even change game facets like excommunication, sect abilities, ruins, and much more;
• Significant enhancements to the map editor;
• Enhanced role of religious sects, impacting your unit abilities and population loyalties;
• Enhanced player information on unit and city screens;
• Added House strength as a factor in diplomacy;
• Streamlined some interface elements; and
• Fixed a wide variety of bugs.
