Don't apologise! I was just wondering :)

alas I kinda got burned by this community too much as well as the game, yeah I never did, I moved onto other things I apologize

Hey Vortex, I take it you never got around to combinging your mods? :)

I'm just working my way through the 900 mods I'm subbed to and trying to trim down the number! (I don't use all 900 at once!)

aww I am glad, I am still steadily working on it

Vortex Central Manipulation Megapack.
Looking forward to it

Hello everyone announcement time! I have begun modding again, I have made the choice to streamline all of my graphics mods into one central mod, reasons for doing this:

~I don't have to worry about intercompatibility

~I can scope creep all I'd like

~Best of all it improves my workflow


Any name suggestions would be appreciated, as well as any general feedback to this news :D <3

Good, i was wondering what launcher colors mecs from that mod had by default and if they were affected

Probably won’t do anything, it’s designed for the Vanilla mecs only

How does this mod affect the mecs from this mod? http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1126623381

This only alters base game Advent Mecs, doesn’t touch that mod at all

How does this mod get affected by this one, if at all? http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1161324428

ah no it is not dynamic, but hypothetically if a mod gave the Mecm1_launcher to a modded enemy and you had this mod on that launcher would turn white

Does that mean that mecs that have a different color than the two will also have their launchers in a fitting color?

Nothing else*

Yes all this mod does is change the mec launchers themselves and touch both the else

For anyone who's curious, this is compatible with mods that add in new MEC types.

before and after image of the Purfier is up on Advent Flashlights

That would actually be amazing. Because the changes are subtle unless you sometimes just stare and appreciate small details it's hard to tell when you make gradual changes like that over time. Would help people make a decision and appreciate it more. :3

going to make a before and after screenshot soon

2D lights? I thought we were done with 2D lighting these years lol. Appreciate you taking the effort for the upgrade then. Never compared it but I know it's a noticable difference so thank you :3

the Purifiers Pilot light used to just be a 2D sprite in Vanilla, yes changed them from Vanilla, but as it stands they look exactly like they do in the screen shots

For reference, I was talking about this mods. http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=908638853&searchtext=light As for the embers, you didn't adjust them did you? Cause I think that eerie shadow cast from their front is really nice. As to this mod, I have no clue how you implemented it but if ABA for example adds more mecs and their colours, would it be an easy implementation to this mod to adjust their launchers too? If ABA doesn't do it of course. Would be neat if it didn't need to be a separate mod but I am clueless so I am simply asking. :3

awww I am so happy you like it, the Purifier change isn't exactly just a light source change I know, but I am rather pleased with all the embers and such

I do, I really do = 3 = Makes lost maps very atmospheric and dark and gritty. I also added additional light maps so those flashlights really shine when it's a really dark or foggy night, it's amazing. ^-^

I hope you like the recent addition of the Purifier in that mod :)

Of course! \o/ Didn't know my advent needed flashlights till I found your mod and now I hate playing without it. So I encourage people like you to just keep doing it and don't let the other people get to you. Same with this mod, never really thought about it how much better it looks and now there is no going back. = 3 =

Awww thank you that means a lot :)

I shall chime in then. Do what you want please. Cosmetics are preferential, if someone thinks it pointless they only need not install it. As for people like me who also has your flashlight mod, these mods make it more immersive and I like it. Keep doing what you do girl and thank you for your contributions. I for one couldn't do it so I am grateful for people like you that take their time to enhance my experience. With love and respect, a fan of modders :3

I for one like uni-coloured "whatevers".

I never once attempted to imply that you were lying, I was confused nothing more, I am not aggressive

You did not explicitly type it, but implicitly. Regardless, I now know what I need to. I most likely encountered a glitch.

I never once called you a liar, and I have many mods, most do not read the description, it is instinctive to assume people don’t, I will say it again, if you have actual criticism, it is welcome here, other wise don’t comment, saying “This is pointless” is not critique as there is nothing I can work with from that to improve the mod

Okay, I shall refer to you as she from now on when necessary.
I never said anything about not liking it. I told you why I thought it was pointless. Since you wish to call me a liar, I can assume it was glitch. What do I even have to gain from lying about this? Please tell me.
This could have been over two days ago and saved you from being annoyed had you just responded with something along the lines of "You must have encountered a glitch as the first tier MECs in my game do not use the laucher twice." instead of questioning whether I read the description or not.

First off I am a lady, second you telling me a cosmetic mod is pointless because it you personally don’t like it is not criticizing, if you told me why you didn’t fine, but all your reasons were false

Mcgan9500, All he had to do was tell me that I encountered a glitch. But he decided to take offense to what I had said. I am not being disrespectful. The fact that he continued to ignore why I said what I said is a bother, but none of you care, so why should I care if I bother you? If you read all of the comments you would see he decided to make this bigger than it needed to be. How is asking a question and explaining why I asked it negative? How have I tried to ruin anything for anyone?

Excellent. Instant subscribe for me. Thanks, Vortex ♀ Pixalation. Really pleased you ported this over.

@Shadowfrenzy everyone here expects you to understand your comments are not only pointless, but a bother, which is worse. You're also expected to understand that your opinion only matters to yourself, and that if all you can bring is negativity in a poor hope of ruining a positive experience for others, then you need to reconsider your priorities.

marshmallow justice, You would expect me to have an experience that tells me this mod is pointless? Wow.

I never said they need to affect gameplay. I just said that my experience with the game tells me that this is pointless.

Thanks for this mod :)

@Avataristche in the original game the white mec has a red launcher, and the red mec's launcher is the wrong shade of red

awesome! thank you

I am looking at the screenshots and i honestly cant remember how the default launchers look like. Is it possible to maybe post some "before-after" type of pics?
Anyway, i like what i see, so i guess one more mod for me ^^

That's why Nexus is so popular. You can ban certain people from being able to download your stuff.

@Advent

Wait, you think Selena's songs suck?? I thought we had something special here! ;)

I was suprised my self, when I opened up the files and saw that not even the Red Launcher was the right shade of red as the Mec

what'd you expect from someone with a name like SHADOWFRENZY92((((TM)))) ... ugh.

thanks for the clarity mod.

I never noticed the mis-matched colors before. Now I know that if this mod will stop working for me it would piss me off. Thank you ;)

"I did and this seems pointless to me."

I dont comment on things I find pointless. I dont go on Selena Gomez's forums and tell her her music sucks. I wish it was possible to ban people from my personal workshop.

thanks for the praise for those who enjoy this sort of thing
