Some of my mods were resisting being updated in the launcher, might be due to being quite old. I apologise. You might have to use a different mod for a couple games and check for updates later.

I want to revive this as a way better mod but no idea when that'll be.

Hey do u plan on updating? Portraits seem to be glitched for me

MC：I need a weapon (*^▽^*)

Thanks! I'm pretty sure I'll keep it version updated for the foreseeable future.
Still want to revive it and make it better but I've been wrestling with how to make it worth using, and how it'll play with 'Sins of the Prophets'.

Keep it up! I'd love to see this still going when 2.6 drops! :D

Well that's good, there's still a few comment that say they got it though.

I'm confused what it might be but glad it fixed itself for you.

I reinstalled both mods a few days ago and now is working for some reason. Works for me I guess

Don't know then. Probably won't get fixed in the near future, so maybe in the next mod version.

Genuinely can't see a reason that bug would start if the game hasn't been updated, and I don't have the old files.
When I figure out how to implement the next version that should be fine.

I really want to use this mod but the portraits are invisible,,,

Weird to get two identical bugs reported when the mod hasn't changed.

They show fine in my game, but I believe you, I'll ask some Steam friends to test it too. I want to republish this asap anyway so it's not too bad.

Invisible portraits

The portraits are invisible

There wasn't any ship assets in Covenant Species. If you mean SOTP then it's not something I'm going to borrow stuff from since it's already actively developed, but I can PM one of the main guys if I get an issue too.

I think there's a "Covenant" class added in this mod but it has a placeholder shipset that should only break if the base models are broken by another mod :p

Out of curiousity have you gotten the ships from his main assests working as I don't seem to have the crusiers working I have managed to pull the mod into a mod pack I have for my friends exclusively but the cruisers themselves just don't show and I am unsure which texture they are if you find anything out would appreciate if you could lemme know! thanks for working on this though

Yep, sure.
BTW the revival mod is still a thing, I've just been stuck how to make it better than this without competing with Sins of the Prophets.

Seems to still work. Can you update it so that scary red exclaimation mark goes away haha?

Sweet, looking forward to it

Thanks!
You may be interested to hear I'm republishing this without the original mod requirement (most of his resources were edited from Google anyway), I'm just trying to make it compatible with other mods (especially Sins of the Prophets) and actually worth downloading.

I'll post a link and update this mod pointing to it when done.

Love this mod!

Welcome. I hope to also add bits to it.

thanks so much for keeping this alive mate.

Welcome!

Also you (and anyone reading) should know I might eventually take off the required file since it's so outdated, and incorporate/remake it myself [maybe as a new mod].

Thanks !

Alright, sweet, thanks.

Should do yep. Nothing has really changed with species files as far as I know.

does this mod work with 2.2.1?

Thanks :D

You're doing great work, glad I found this.

Yeah it does. Though it's not me that did that part, this is like an update to the required mod.

Does this version still have all the Covenant portraits listed in their own species category, rather than distributed among the vanilla categories?

I can't name a reason but I'll take a look soon sure.

I'm having the same issue a couple guys a few pages back had, that traits still aren't appearing. Any idea why or how to fix it?

Halo Universe Human Species was the name, it's from iiossa too
that would be helpfull thanks!

Oh, I didn't know there were finished UNSC mods. I'll take a look!

hmmmm anyway to get the unsc too? or at least the outfits, dunno, because right now i can't use the old mod's outfits (i really love the one with the shoulder "blade" armor) i can't put traits on my specie because of it

I appreciate hearing if something might be broken, of course. I'm just unsure what would do that issue just yet :p

Ah no worries.If you can't find anything thats alright. I just figured it be worth a shot to bring this to your attention.

Riiight. Well I'll keep my eyes open and try to help, but I don't know anything that would cause that, epsecially on my end :|

Oh right, huh. Well thanks for saying. I have no idea what would cause that or if it's on my end or what.
I didn't touch the civics, just labelled these species as 'Biological'. I will be on the look out in my own game for similar!

Hey there. Been using the mod to play a Sangheili only empire. Everything is working as intended and thank you for the work! I found one bug so far. In one of my games there was a generation of a Jiralhanae empire that had the civic trait Machine Intelligence- Rogue Servitor. The species of Jiralhanae had the Machine trait and a biological species trait (Agarian I think). What ended up happening was the empire never developed anything on their planet or expanded because I am guessing the AI literally broke with the incompatable species civics. The empire did not have robots either.

It stopped crashing with no changes.
I'm even more confused but whatever, I can't make it bug any more :|

Well thank you :D
I love the Halo species, I owe it to the franchise and the original mod author to keep them working.

I'm hoping to figure out the issue by the time -New Ship Classes- is updated.

I already appreciate you trying to figure this out! It's a shame that such a high quality mod was left abandoned by it's author, but you making this patch allows us to still use it.

Huh, so, it seems to be the Covenant Species mod causing crashes on selecting ships or cities. I have *no* idea why that would be, but I'm going to try adding a fix to this mod.

Hm, thanks for telling me. I'm getting a CTD even earlier from another mod, but once I get through that I'll be able to test this one more!

Heya, I noticed that with selecting ship appearance or clicking on the room in the Species overview causes a CTD, this might be as of Update 2.0, but I'm unsure, no other ship altering mods were used.

@Grey Knight Dante That's a relief! I never found what the issue was from my end, maybe it was a rare 1.8.1 issue fixed in 1.8.2.
For once it was easy.

Hey just wanna come by and say that the mod is working now. I don't know if you've fixed the problem or its something on my part but it works now!

Well, I mean the important part of updating, like the file compatibility phase.
The ships on both work.

The portraits of Sins' are not updated though, at least for now.
