Sathra Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 New version, at present only for the Stable build. I'll add one for experimental once I understand the changes to resource income (alloys/alenium, or if someone posts them it would be faster). It doesn't include the air combat rebalance of V5X.2. Changes: -All advanced human infantry and vehicle weapons use components of broken down alien weapons. The manufacture project to break down an alien weapon unlocks after the weapon is researched. Also provides some alloys. -Manufactured weapons cost less cash to build. -Scimitar and Hyperion use alien weapon parts (as they are built with pulse laser as standard) -Aircraft cannons now need alenium to build as well. -Slight drop in sale price of alien weapons, to vanilla standard due to -> -Alien Corpses are sold for money -Alien weapons now need to be manually sold, or broken down for parts. -AK47 has a new image (Thanks to WalrusJones). Minor damage boost. -New projectile images thanks to Lightgemini -Alien Analysis mod thanks to Max_Caine and A333 Link here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/rr5joukaewfx8qz/Sathra%27s%20Mod%20V6.zip Probably best to start a new game with this. Might not crash if you don't, but stuff won't unlock properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentelin Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 (edited) I am getting error ,,Invalid material requirements for manufacture MenTech.PDDisasembly",when i start game .I guess this has to do with "All advanced human infantry and vehicle weapons use components of broken down alien weapons. The manufacture project to break down an alien weapon unlocks after the weapon is researched. Also provides some alloys." and "Alien weapons now need to be manually sold, or broken down for parts".

MisterLock Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 You know...Sathra even though the art of the AK is great(Good Job WalrusJones) I do feel like the earlier image was better >_<.Any way to replace it? Also does your mod fix the annoying bug with the shields?I kinda want to use them...But I'm to afraid... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterLock Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 I heard the random crash bug is still around... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share Posted June 25, 2013 If you drop a shield on the ground, then try to open inventory while standing over it, the game will crash. I think Assault shields are buggy too in a different way. If you want to use the old image for the AK, just use the 'gui' folder from V5 and overwrite.

Sathra Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share Posted June 25, 2013 Updated again. Combat shields being available is a mistake on my part, but if they're working I might as well bring them into line with V5X. Savegame compatible, as the only change is to the damage capacity of the shields. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am actually not totally satisfied with it either. I will continue to work on it and make it better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentelin Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 (edited) When you try to break down alien weapons to parts from workshop (so far i tried alien plasma pistol),it crash game (when you switch to geospace) after few in-game hours (not real-time).

PerfectDeath Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 (edited) same, ordered some 10 pistols to be broken down, game crashed after a short bit of time acceleration. EDIT: Tried breaking down pistols again, it seems to crash whenever the first is completed. Edited June 25, 2013 by PerfectDeath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share Posted June 25, 2013 Bah, another mistype.

WalrusJones Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 (edited) Sounds like Sathra needs to copy the new sprite into either gui/weapons, or weapons/ballistic/soviet/ Edited June 26, 2013 by WalrusJones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sathra Posted June 30, 2013 Author Share Posted June 30, 2013 Its in manufactures.xml. The materials field for ManTech.PowerCore has AlienAlloys instead of Alienalloys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerfectDeath Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Also, corvettes, they take 7 avalanche torps? that is a lot... O_o Good thing the foxtrot is rearmed immediately upon landing if you only have one. =P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sathra Posted July 1, 2013 Author Share Posted July 1, 2013 I usually just have the escorting condors shoot the bejeezus out of it with the guns. One plane acts as a decoy (hopefully the MiG) and the condors slip in behind and start firing. That or I have Alenium torps before the Corvettes arrive (and/or gatling lasers).

PerfectDeath Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Yea, took me forever to get alenium unlocked, too many light scouts with few regular scouts kept slinking by. =P That and I had sent my condors out to engage another light scout when the corvette showed up. I knew sending both condors out would have its consequences. like when I sent my two foxtrots out to a new base the aliens decided to drop a base invasion.
