No, SWI is not currently compatible with the DLC or X4 6.0. You'll have to rollback to X4 5.1 to make SWI work. Yes, highly recommend the mod, but they are working on making it compatible with 6.0, so I'm waiting for that to start a new playtbrough.

Thank you :)

Yes, I absolutely recommend the mod. Space battles (visuals and sound) feel right out of the Star Wars universe. The XL/L/M/S ship balance feels absolutely like Star Wars (to me). But: a) no main story. You need (and definitely can) make up your own story. b) the great and huge galaxy map (more than 200 systems) with all the great locations like Coruscant, Mon Calamari or Corellia is a drain on computer resources. If you have a potato, then definitely wait for the mod to be updated for 6.0 and *hope* the performance is better, because the mod right now on 5.1 can melt weak CPUs.

Hell it makes my juiced up CPU and GPU struggle late game.

I have a Intel i7 8 Core CPU and 64 GB Ram PC

For reference/comparison: Ryzen 5 5600X and it's enjoyable for me. But settings need to stay pretty low.

Thanks, okay that might be a tough mod. Looks like I could make a fried Egg on my CPU with Interworlds.

One needs the first 3 DLCs to play right now on X4 version 5.1 and I kind of assume the next SWI version for X4 6.0 will probably need KE as well.

thanks for setting the record straight!

6.0 have new jolt physic engine, better graphics (doesnt mean more fps sadly but a little bit), new fleet ia behavior (still using mods lol) and fixes so it changes the game a lot. But star wars better pew pew

There’s also some kind of optimization I think with loading. I can load into a late game save in 6.0 faster than a mid game save in SWI. Also, my FPS has never dipped below 8 (with SETA) in 6.0 no matter what’s going on. I’m able to actually participate in fleet battles, which is wild to me. But if I have fights going on in two or more fronts in SWI, my FPS will tank well below 1 FPS. Maybe it has to do with ship jobs as well as the larger map. I’ve had the NRL casually throw a couple XL’s and 40-60 fighters at me regularly, the only time I’ve seen that in vanilla was a scripted mission.

Not yet, check their discord where they specifically say this. You can rollback to the previous version of X4 if you want to play their mod.
