On some systems, extracted mods that were in .zip (Like this one) dont work. Instead of .zip, use .rar or other. Kthx. Works fine for me =/

Quote: lolz troll. Though if anyone can prove that a rar will avoid errors, I'd be all for it. It does, I had the same problem with many mods already. I can name some now: DSTech mods, DarKlones, Amrobotics' mods, Shooks mods. All those were originally zipped. Even now if I want to use this mod, I must go and copy-paste the entire index.ini stuff in your folder and put it in the base.rte index.ini or else it WILL NOT LOAD. So please, .rar kthx

Re: DarKlone Technologies - Updated 3/7/08
Is it just me or is the D139 not automatic? It does have more range than the D138, but it doesn't fire like an automatic..

If you had little plates all over the body, if the bullet went through it would still hit the actor. Wrong. Another problem that I didn't mention was that after a bullet passes through something, it doesn't come straight out of the exit wound. For some reason it re-appears a few "feet" behind it. If what you said was true, then bullets would harm actors when they pass through shields. But, they don't. Another thing to test this out on is the heavy coalition soldier. It's chest plate doesn't cover the entire torso. A bullet that goes through the chest plate doesn't damage the torso, though. Subiw wrote: Is it just me or is the D139 not automatic?

The S version has a scope, which gives it a longer viewing range but only semi-automatic fire. If you want fully automatic, get the regular one. Maybe someday in the future Data will implement things like weapon attachments, secondary fire, and multiple fire modes. Until then you'll have to buy two different guns.

This is proof that it occasionally does not load. There is no proof that this is caused by the .zip format. If it was, everybody would be saying this instead of just two people. How exactly do you think that a different compression method is going to temporarily destroy the mod files inside, and magically fix them when they are moved to another folder?

Re: DarKlone Technologies - Updated 3/7/08
I probably haven't tried this mod before. Good thing i did, because pretty much everything in this mod is excellent. (Great, powerful feeling sounds btw). The EM cannon just feels too powerful, perhaps lower rate of fire would be in order? Unless it's supposed to be that powerful...
And about that "mod not loading" glitch, i've had that too with other mods. I tried, but couldn't reproduce it with this mod. I think it was related to unzipping it with Winzip directly into CC directory. As you said, moving the files from the directory did fix it in those cases, but actually i extracted it into temp directory and then moved the original mod directory into CC directory. Then they started working. Or you could make the dir yourself. Or try another extractor. Must be some thing in how the extractor handles the dirs that causes it. We'll likely never find out.

You should definitely make armor that comes off. One of which can be the little plume on the back of the heavy's head.
Also, I think the light Darklone, who looks like a ninja, is just begging to be equipped with a katana-esque weapon.

Try this: all mods that don't show up need to be moved like so: Make a new folder that is named exactly the same as the original, nonworking folder on say, your desktop. Next copy (or cut) and paste contents of the old folder to the new one. finnally replace the old one with the new one.

Aah, well, that's strange.
