Oh, you misunderstood me. I was referring to the flame war/thread derailment. The flame sprites from the Crobos mod are definitely the most beautiful I've seen in CC yet.

As for Capnbubs' next project, I don't care as long as he keeps working on crobotech occasionally =(

shhh you can edit that yourself easily.
all the reload stuff is very easy, find reloadtime in the device code and make it 60000 for a minute.
add some of the explosions from the LR to its gibs if you want it to explode.
learn to mod, then you wont need to make extreme requests, you can make it yourself and then decide if its fun.

"learn to mod, then you wont need to make extreme requests, you can make it yourself and then decide if its fun."

Right. I was not in any way making requests. The first thing on the original post for the mod is "Work in progress" Therefore I am assuming that not all of the design for the weapons is complete.

I was throwing an idea into the pot for the kind of role a weapon like the LR-5000 could fill in this mod. This was nothing but an idea. It is for capnbubs to read, ignore, discard, or use as he chooses.

If the presentation of ideas about a mod is inappropriate for that mod's thread then you have my permission to shoot me in the face. I am after all, a newbie here.

However, I'm sure you can understand how it would be *logical* for me to think it wouldn't be a problem to post my 2 cents about a mod's mechanics on the forum thread about that mod. What, do you expect me to just not talk about it at all, or make a whole new thread?

In light of this, you telling me to "mod it yourself" instead of making "extreme requests" seems rather asinine. I'm going to ignore you and if I have an idea about something in a mod that could provide an inspiration to either the mod creator or any others, I will share that idea unless the original poster explicitly states that he's not open to suggestions or feedback... And if that's really the case, why bother making an open thread for it anyways?

But thanks anyways.

well, first of all, to provide a place to upload the mod and describe it; that said:

its not inappropriate or frowned upon at all to make suggestions in a thread such as this, or just about any mod. so there will be no face shooting today, or not in this topic anyway. ive just been in a bad mood lately, and as a result have been prone to both flaming and flamebaiting. 3 exams in 3 days doesnt make me a happy person, so i apologise to anyone ive unnecessarily burnt, including you.

bubs has said the pricing and some of the balance was out, so that will be worked on. making the LR into a pure superweapon might be a little OTT, but i suppose it might happen. i like the idea of it as a heavy infantry/assault weapon for the tech a little more though, in fact i can almost see it being nerfed in the next release (if there is one), though i definitely hope not. crobotech is meant to be a balanced mod, but i suppose superweapons can be balanced.

i take back what i said about extreme requests, but still keep up "learn to mod": both because its good fun and it gives you insight into how everything is done. if you are underway with your learning already, my bad again. sorry for being a jerk.

oh, in light of the beginning of your other post, about a B22 version, someone posted a fix a few pages back..

just got the mod, love everything about it; actors are nice to look at, walk around nicely.. and... these guys have armour classes that put the ol'darkklone heavy to shame. And they got forcefields too aparently.

The weapon names are confusing at first, but learned them soon enough.
The weapons feels nice when used, the mg90 have a nice sound and kick to it. The laser rifle (red) is fun to use but burn up ammo too fast. And the blue lasers guns should maybe do a little less damage and slightly higher ROF.. but those are details.
The grenade launcher however should fire more far, its short range is dangerous for its user.

At first i didnt like when the activities file included in your mod "took over" the old one, but the crobotech guys are hard to kill and pack a punch.. so they are challenging and fun to fight against and use.

I often use darkstorm stuff, and the lucky seven sniper rifleis the most effective weapon in the arsenal to fight crobotech (headshots). Or a rain of rocket from their turret. There is no such things as overkill when crobos is involved.

--edit, new stuff; often, the game Crash to desktop when im fighting crobotech guys for some time. Anyone else have this problem? might be just me.

Actually, crobotech is what got me to try to balance my actors more. My old heavy was insanely overpowered.


No, B22 is just incredibly unstable for some reason.

It's the same with anything, as it gets more complicated, so do the problems.

why does my CC not crash as much? probably cause i only play the 6 min skirmish, i suppose. everyone seems to be complaining about it, but mine only crashes when using something horribly laggy.

why is the lazer so fun? i think its the glow..

is this f0r B22?

@Barat!nha: This download is.

Wo, Wo, Wo, wait a minute there they have forcefields too I didn't know that. I've played with these guys the longest and I've never seem any kind of forcefield.

There's a reason why the Techies gave of energy when their armor gets shoot.

HELP! this mod looks awsome, great and everything in between. But when i try 2 play it, it won't work. i just get this....

---------------------------------------------------

That's not a problem with the mod.
Follow that filepath and find the file, then add .bmp to the end.

thats just it. there is no Base.rte/Actors/Coalition/TorsoB its not there!?
