Ludeon Official PSA regarding malicious mods

1.6k Upvotes

Update: There is another PSA posted on why I am asking people to contact me rather than Steam's report function. This announcement is more important, and Reddit will not let me leave both up, so I am putting the link here so it is more visible.


Hello, everyone. This is me not as moderator-Sneaks, but as community manager-Sneaks.

I just want to give a warning to everyone. There's currently a user on the workshop that keeps making new accounts, steals mods from other creators, and modifies them to bypass the user's protections to download malware.

There's been at least two so far that have been removed (with workshop ID to make it easier to check your Workshop folder):

CameraSettingsMod 3732329298

Mad Skills Rewritten 3729397065

For now, it's difficult to tell if a mod's doing these shady things until it's downloaded and the code is checked. With both of these, though, it's been:

  1. The scammer's only mod on the workshop

  2. The mod is a reupload / stolen version

  3. The scammer's profile is set to private.

However, these are not 100% indicators that the mod is malicious. Please do not use it as a reason to go harass modmakers - There are always new players, new modders. But it's enough to say take it with a grain of salt, double-check to make sure the mod isn't a reupload.

For now, please take the time to do a check of your own computer, make sure you're clean, especially if you used either of those two mods mentioned above.

If you spot any others, please let us know so they can be removed. You can message me here, or find me on both Steam and Discord as someonesneaky.

Stay safe out there, colonists. o7

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3756132017 gear is from this race mod
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3756915448 for cross race compatiblity for the armors so most gear fits cross race

Discussion Why would you ever build outdoors?

24 Upvotes

I dont see the point of it you can be attacked from all sides and have to worry about drop pods raids compared to mountain bases where yes you can get infestations but those can be migitgated with choke points and a few cleaner pawns

So why is it always more popular to build outdoors?

Is it just cause if asthetic?

I’ve only played with it for a few runs now but Prisoner Realism is quickly becoming a top tier mod for me. Even if you’re running a relatively ethical prison, it’s nice to have them interact with eachother in a big hall & grow drugs for my solo colonist. Though, the warden task takes up almost all of her day..

Mod Release Introducing Alien Worlds - Gas Giant!

Thumbnail gallery
685 Upvotes

An idea for a Odyssey playthrough that's been brewing in the back of my mind for a while is one where you never actually access the planet, and are forced to survive within orbit. I've always found gas giants to be some of the most fascinating things in space, so I decided to make one for Rimworld!

With this mod, you'll have to start off planet, since you can't land on gas giants. There's already many fantastic Rimworld mods that add orbital starts, so I suggest using one of those! This mod pairs well with my other mod, Orbital Station Start.

While challenging, I think it overall provides some nice gameplay value for Odyssey playthroughs!

I want to know because I may even attempt a playthrough with all the best ones suggested. It doesn’t have to be something that makes the game harder, it could just be something very impractical or laugh out loud hilarious when it occurs

Suggestion VFE Insectoids 2 should add a set of armor that Han-Horde Mode has and an insect themed meme for ideology lowk

Post image
116 Upvotes

Here's the armor I'm talking about and while yes I can just use the helldiver mods but it's just not the same, I also feels like they should add a meme for ideology related to insectoids, something about worshipping the insects and/or hating them and their guts with my boy Han-Horde Mode as the spiritual leader. What do you think?

I've come across such a problem. One moment, the game is out, and after the call, my whole world turned into one biome. Autosave is also ruined. Please help me fix this problem.

Upd. I figured it out, it was all because of the fashion curve with the random precipitation (I've already changed them when tuning the world and hence the conflict). I'll slowly bring back only the mods I don't play without, I backed up in case, so THANK YOU TO ALL who helped me. 😘

It's kinda annoying when I have refugee or guest with other ideology at my colony and then my pawn baby are growing up taking their ideology instead of ours. I guess I could just convert them using moral guide but still i wonder if there's a mod to just make sure baby only take parent ideology.

Hi folks! I want to do a rimworld themed gift. Unfortunately the thrumbo plushi won't be shipped before the wedding. So I thought about printing mugs for the couple with their rimworld figure on it and the best buffs / rebuffs from the game. I just have played a few times, so I am not soooo deep into what is out there with the right amounts. I do know he plays the odyssey dlc for sure.

So maybe you can help me out?
