Shadowrun Unlimited

Description
Shadowrun Unlimited is designed to be more than a simple campaign; it's the world of Shadowrun.

-Sandbox style gameplay.

-Replayable Runs, assigned randomly by fixers from their "pool" of runs. The number of runs is around 30, and growing with each new update.

-Players gain Street Cred for completing runs, along with Karma and Nuyen rewards. Street Cred allows the player to access higher level fixers and merchants.

-Completing runs will cause the player to gain both Heat and Notoriety. Heat causes Lone Star to spawn with greater frequency, and Notoriety will cause them to attack on sight (once a certain threshhold is reached). Heat can also be increased by setting off alarms during runs.

-Players can rent a variety of Safe Houses. Safe houses allow the player to rest and recover their health, as well as lower their Heat rating. More expensive safe houses provide access to cheap support items, more efficient healing, and eventually character buffs. Players can purchase an upgradeable safe house and customize it as they see fit.

-Assault Rifles, SMG's and Shotguns are illegal. If the Lone Star stops you with one of these weapons they will attempt an arrest, violently. This can be avoided buy acquiring a forged Weapon Permit.

-Players can buy DocWagon contracts, which allow them to respawn inside the same zone upon death. The better the contract, the more respawns that are allowed, and the cheaper the service charge. This is however optional for new characters that are having trouble making ends meet.

-Characters with high Charisma are able to negotiate for a little something extra when they are offered a job.

-Designed for new characters. Slower paced gameplay, with money "sinks". Don't expect to max out your character in one sitting, and getting started in Seattle isn't going to be easy. But once you get your feet wet, you'll be making steady money.

-A Taxi System that can be used to travel between all the hub zones.

-NPC runners are hired, and follow you throughout the world until the job is complete (or they are defeated). Players no longer hire runners on a per-map basis. Getting runners killed will increase their future hiring costs, but performing successful runs with them will level it back out.

-A Commlink System that allows players to call their contacts, such as fixers, runners, and of course the taxi. Runners hired over the phone will arrive at the players location within a few seconds. *The Commlink is accessed by clicking on your character, outside of combat.

-There is a basic journal system built in. Whenever you activate your commlink, a brief message will appear guiding you in the right direction.

-A day and night cycle to help bring the world to life. Watch the sun rise and set as you sit idle. Transitioning zones speeds up the process. Some encounters will only happen during certain times of the day.

-A branching story that will take players down different paths depending upon the choices they make. These choices will exclude other options, and create proper repercussions to decisions. And once this story runs it's course, I will begin building another. No need to import characters into a new UGC, you can just wake up in your Safehouse and kick off your next adventure.

-A global Matrix that can be accessed from any jack-points in the world (aside from run maps). Deckers can now hack into the Matrix before a run starts and open MagLock doors, disable security cameras, and more before the team arrives at the run location. When not hacking the Matrix for a run, deckers can earn extra cash by delving into data nodes and retrieving files. There is a certain fixer hanging his hat Downtown that is willing to pay for stolen data files.

-Six special matrix programs, that act like matrix-only attributes. Masking, Exploit, Spoof, Delete, Edit, and Browse. They expand the potential of the matrix, as well as expanding decker growth potential beyond the two skills. Players can now upgrade their Deck Storage to allow for more data files to be downloaded when raiding Datastore.

-A unique system hidden in the world that allows players to weaken their characters in exchange for special rewards, effectively allowing infinite karma spending.

-Integrated Tracker's Street Samurai's Catalogue. Fleshed out the rest of the items such as spells and cyberdecks to fall in-line with the same financial scale as Tracker's cyberware.

-Created 5 new Skills to expand how the game is played: Stealth, Negotiation, Fast-Talking, Electronics, and Lockpicking.

*This UGC is not "finished". The current story is not complete, and the world is not completely "fleshed out". This is completely playable, but is under a constant state of development with on average, a large update every week (not including bug fixes). This game will probabaly never be "done" as I will always be expanding upon it, so don't be afraid to jump in now.

*If you like this UGC don't forget to give it a thumbs up! And if you have an ideas, or would like to lend a hand, look at the discussions below and... well you should be able to figure it out. ENJOY!

*Special Thanks to the developers who help bring Shadowrun Unlimited to life:
Tracker- for the "Street Samurai's Catalogue"
backburnercomics- for "Memphis Motors"
Mad Hatter- for the "Nature Pack"
Asmodean13- the "Arbor's Embrace story"
Mizaroth for all his amazing map building.

(FYI: JamesB192 has been running the other updated version since southwind left the project.)

This is the original mod by Southwind that started Unlimited and gave new life to Shadowrun Returns for me! (All hail the original, we are not worthy!) Subscribe to the other one, but give love to Southwind and check out his original cyberpunk hacker indie game >//:System.Hack - https://store.steampowered.com/app/557330/SystemHack/

@silence731: This one was last updated in 2014, the other one in 2021. The other one is basically still under development, this one is dead and unfinished.

so whats the difference between this unlimited and the other unlimited?

I'm new to Shadowrun mods, can I take my character from this into the main campaign or vice versa?

@BigRowdy: The one made by JamesB192 is actually for the Director's Cut version of Shadowrun: Dragonfall. Subscribe to it in the Director's Cut workshop. Yeah, he didn't put it in his description because he simply copy-pasted the description from this mod. But yeah, that version of his is for SDF:DC while this one originally made by Southwind is for the original game Shadowrun Returns. This one is obsolete because Southwind isn't around here anymore since he left the workshop during the beginning of 2015 to eventually pursue an entrepreneurial business of starting his own video game company.

Also, be careful not to subscribe to a duplicate version of JamesB192's UGC found somewhere in the Shadowrun Returns workshop, since that one was recently made in October 2019 and feels similar to this mod as it's incomplete.

@osarak63 Is the directors cut version not JamesB192's version. I am confused. His mod does not say anything about a directors cut. If his is not what you are talking about, maybe its on the nexus?

Also, to clarify, get the SR Unlimited UGC for Shadowrun Dragonfall: Director's Cut, not the one for Shadowrun Returns. The one for Shadowrun Returns was last updated on October 2019 and I don't know why a second SR Unlimited UGC was made for that game when the one for SRDF:DC is the supreme version as that one (SRDF:DC) is currently worked on and being updated from time to time.

So to any potential players looking for the SR Unlimited UGC, subscribe to the one for SRDF:DC.

Disregard this UGC. The similarly titled SR Unlimited UGC made by JamesB192, Yusukitty, and Mizaroth should be subscribed to instead because that one is currently being worked on while this original version made by Southwind has long since been discontinued since the beginning of 2015 because Southwind has left the community since 2015 to at first own a nightclub business then start his own video game developing company.

I repeat, go subscribe to SR Unlimited (not to be confused with this version originally made by Southwind) if you want a sandbox UGC other than the SNES Reboot UGC.

I believe SR Unlimited takes up where this mod leaves off. This version I am pretty sure is abandoned. A few people are still working on the SR version.
