Some people complained that mediafire were not working for them on my mod discussion thread - zippyshare worked fine for them.
Hey there TShinzon, Are there plans to make this mech mod multiplayer friendly? Pardon if asked and answered already.
Since finding this mod, I've loved it. It really feels worth it sacrificing one of my precious tech slots for mechs now. I do have a suggestion though. Have you considered the creation of a Scout Power Suit? Or maybe a Scouting Mech? I think power suit would be best because it'd be a lot more compact, and the idea behind this is to be able to explore dark caves. Special properties: Mobile: Allows use of Energy Dash and Double Jump, as per the techs, but since you need to keep it active it also drains your energy. Source of Light: Like an infrared scope that allows you better vision in the darkness, this means it produces its own light capable. Not as bright as a flashlight, but brigther than a lantern. Energy Blade: For self defence. About the same power as a one-handed sword of the same tier as the armor. Can be tapped for a horizontal swing of medium range or charged for a more powerful, wider blow. Grappling Hook: For climbing. Later tiers could feature a jetpack of sorts and perhaps you could replace the Grappling Hook with a drill or an energy shield. Just a suggestion.
Thanks for the heads up, I'll look into those when I get a chance. And yep, I've done all the sprite work myself so far, with a handful of sprites such as purple exhaust smoke being recolors of sprites already in the game. No need to reinvent the wheel, right? It was pretty touch and go when I started out, my other mod Dark Souls armors was the first time I've ever dealt with spriting/2d animation, but I feel like I'm starting to get a handle on it. Right now it doesn't work apparently because of a bug with the multiplayer code in the base game; according to a chat log posted by SuperMandrew (thanks btw!), at post 87 on this thread, if the mod works in SP, it should work in MP. I definitely want this mod to be multiplayer-friendly but that will have to wait until the devs figure out and patch the problem. Thanks for the suggestions everyone! While I can't reasonably accommodate every suggestion, I actually do look at them as a source of ideas.
I love the new update, the new mech is just the perfect style. I have a suggestion for it: The gravity gun is simply fantastic, I think it would be great if I could use it to pull up the earth, and throw it. I could right click, drag target the ground, and the longer I hold it... The more blocks get "dug" and gravitate to the target point. Then I move the targeted and release, this "throws" the dug up material in that direction with an amount of force. These blocks don't need to do damage (although it would be amazing if it did). The mech is so agile and quick, having it be a gravitational mining combat mech would just be amazing. I'd love to pull the stuff of asteroids apart with my gravity gun, then hop out and sift through the dirt for precious metals.
I love the update. Thankyou very much. Here's an idea....a slower bulkier mech with energy shields. Drains more energy. Slower but stronger firepower. More defensive oriented for times when in a pinch.
@TShinzon Any chance to get another download link? The file is over 2MB on nexus and it's not allowing me to download it because I'm unregistered. @Edit Doesn't really matter anymore, my friend let me use his account.
I really like your mod, but would you please offer a mirror to mediafire or something like that? Nexus wants me to register and when I try they screw up the validation process. I don't want to register anyway, so it would be really nice of you to provide alternate download links! Thank you!
Thanks for the videos DekoDaGeko! They are great previews. Due to popular request I've added an alternate download link via ZippyShare, see mod page for details.
the new mech is really amazing! the animations are very fluid, controls are great...tons of mobility! love it the graviton beam is so epic. so good to pull those damn birds and cut them down >: D
No questions asked.Best mod i have ever seen but maby add even more mechs if it is possible and btw the red mech looks like its from the supermechs game i used to play. 100/10 easilly
To bad works not for me. the Techs do not apear in any craftingstation, nor in Multi nor in Singleplayer. (And yes I did recall all the tierlevels....)
If you could provide more details, that would be great. One major detail you should include is: How did you install it? The folder you should have in your mods folder should be called "mod_xsmech". If it's not in there, you might have screwed up a bit. "mod_xsmech" is actually INSIDE the folder named "XSMech_Pack_v_1_02".
Hmm I did simple drag and Drop the Inside stuff of the Compressed File into the Modfolder. (tghe Folder that was inside there) Like I did with all mods. I see the problem, you packed the real content folder into another folder.... That is unusual, normal the "functional" folde ris direct in the compressed file. So a Missinterpretation. (Should be mentioned)
