If some newbie installed IE + IEX after only playing once or twice through the game they may not even realize the scope of whats changed, but for us, it is drastic and really adds atmosphere to X3.Ī great example. The screenshots doesn't do it justice, its one of those things you have to see ingame. So it changes planets and textures, the fog effect, view distances (AP only) and new backgrounds. IEX adjust some of the view distances and such and causes the game to become modified. I installed just the regular IE at first and it didn't make my game modified (ed: ignore that, it does make it modified. I was early in my last AP game so I just started a new one, no biggie for me. Apparently planets and suns could be out of place if added to an existing game. But it is recommended to start a new one because of how planets are generated or something. Technically yes it can be added to an existing game.
