What version of Sins of a Solar Empire is supported?
Sins of the Fallen is a modification for Rebellion.
How do you install and activate Sins of the Fallen?
Please read How to install and activate Sins of the Fallen.
Why does your mod have so many folders?
As Sins of a Solar Empire is a 32bit game it is restricted various hard coded limitations. The stacking structure used with this mod allows me to optionally include different content without exceeded these restrictions.
Will you support Diplomacy, Entrenchment or Vanilla?
No, I did have previous versions that supported Entrenchment and Diplomacy (See Release History), but have decided the it was too much effort for one person to try and maintain both.
I hear you have a BSG mod too, why isn't it posted here?
While Fall of Kobol is a companion mod to Sins of the Fallen, it is also a stand-alone mod in terms of the universe and effort that went into creating the mod. It is hosted in it's own moddb page to highlight that mod and it's accomplishments as well as protecting this moddb profile should any action be required similar to what occurred in the past.
Some tools should be simple. The Sins Mod Manager aims to be just that.
What does it do?
The Sins Mod Manager maintains multiple EnabledMods text configurations (think templates) and allows you to activate the one you want prior to starting Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion.
What does it NOT do?
It won't download, install or modify any of the mods shown. It's up to you to ensure the mods are downloaded and installed properly in order to play them.
How does it work?
Simply click on the mods picture and it will copy the EnabledMods.[Mod Name].txt to EnabledMods.txt. If the EnabledMods.[Mod Name].txt doesn't exist yet, then the tool will create it for you.
What's up with the little icon next to the mod's picture?
Clicking the mod configuration icon will create or regenerate the EnabledMods.[Mod Name].txt for the corresponding mod. If the mod has optional configurations another dialog will be displayed to select those options (see below).
Why does Windows not trust the executable?
It costs money to sign an executable. As this is a free mod tool I won't be spending money to sign it. You can trust it or not trust it at your discretion. My suggestion is only use versions downloaded from moddb and verify the checksum matches what moddb displays.

When can I get it?
Now.
I'll be uploading the first version when I upload the next Sins of the Fallen release which should be soon. They will however be separate downloads as I won't expect people that want to use this tool to also download my mod.
The Sins Mod Manager system menu allows you to optionally select "Use Developer" to have this session manager the EnabledMods.txt for the Developer Exe. Note: this option will not be persisted across executions.
The Sins Mod Manager also supports optional configurations for:
Sins of a Galactic Empire
E4X/Interregnum
Sins of the Fallen/Fall of Kobol

I also hope for an Update, other mods are some kind of fun, but this ome really got me, I love the Pirates and the Plague, seeing this with all addons would be awesome!
I surely hope SotF gets an update. Out of all mods available, this one deserves it the most. (:
Hi there been wondering how does the mod?
This comment is currently awaiting admin approval, join now to view.
This mod is mostly unstable. Some of the factions (Nephem & Plague) when plaied by a player crash the game, even in case when most of the extras are off, including vanila races. Something ain't right with this one or it is just me. But I doubt that...

This mod seems and feels dead. I better delete it.
This mod is far from dead, the creator(s) of this mod tend to take things slowly. Like it gets updated maybe once or twice a year.
20.Jun.2020 - last file. Yet, this mod compared to Kobol is prone to crashes.
A suggestion for the developper - turn of vanilla races and minor factions; do not let Kobol & Fallen to be mixed together; fix the crash to desktop issues.
I intend to give a go only to a stable build that is up to date + using all DLC content.
