Does it work?I cant use the blocks , they dont apear

It's a shame, it was nice while it lasted. I loved the texture of the armor so much.

The person who did the DX11 updates for this and the Advanced Gyroscope just kind of disappeared. Hopefully you are willing and/or able to update the texture to DX11.
Maison De Cornusiac Mar 18, 2018 @ 8:08am 
As probably nobody meanwhile continues to play in DX9 (Keen updates I think only work in DX11?) wouldn't it be the clever thing to bring this to DX11 too? Would that mean much work? In case you are using same identities for the blocks as the vanished ones had they might just show up again when I reload the world...

I have not updated this and the DX11 was not my version.
Maison De Cornusiac Mar 18, 2018 @ 7:07am 
Yes, the other superheavy armour got removed and left my latest construction virtually naked. Fine. Now I have to start all over again, hopefully this one here works and will *continue*...
MightyN0ob Mar 6, 2018 @ 8:09pm 
What are the chances this could get updated to DX11? The other one was removed and I don't know why. :(

Reminds me of the surface of the forrunner structures in the Halo series
Good job :)
Mini_Meatwad Dec 2, 2015 @ 4:42am 
it actually does need dx11, this is the best heavy armor mod i could find
Froschreiniger Nov 22, 2015 @ 7:02am 
NEED DX11 NOW!!!!!!!!!!
SkekDris Nov 19, 2015 @ 3:53am 
Please give is DX11 support, this is such a cool texture!
[40-1] SgtSnipey Oct 11, 2015 @ 6:43am 
Is there any plan to add the new slopes as super heavey armor?
JakeBarrage Jul 7, 2015 @ 12:39pm 
will you add direct x 11 to this
Gumnut Jun 23, 2015 @ 9:08pm 
not a bad run for 10 months of no updates......was one of the best blocks i had :(
Gumnut Jun 23, 2015 @ 8:50pm 
Aug, 2014.............well I think its now Dead!
Spock The Builder Jun 18, 2015 @ 9:09pm 
I just came here to say what Kam and Acts said. =)
Haginen Otsolen May 30, 2015 @ 6:51am 
please make it into DX11 :D
Kam Solastor Mar 2, 2015 @ 1:24pm 
Could this perhaps also be done in armored ramps (like Uncle Stens mod), and blast door parts? Perhaps even a 1x1 (for both small and large ships) heavily armored catwalk plate that you can use as supplemental armor over something (such as, if you have a conveyor sticking out to cover a turret, or the sides of a conveyor)?

standard weapons doing nothing is ridiculous! to op
rsg Nov 4, 2014 @ 10:14am 
maybe you can make mod for very armored fighter cocpit?

Learza Oct 21, 2014 @ 7:43am 
after the update, this feels like "ultra" heavy armour than "super"
Thominator47 Oct 15, 2014 @ 5:11am

Coreinsanity Oct 11, 2014 @ 4:29pm 
Sorry if this has been asked before, but does this give 5x the mass as well?
WiFiN Sep 29, 2014 @ 2:47pm 
Nice mod, but I wish it had more "armor" look. Some rivets, washed plate or carbon weave. But not this silicon board look. Armor is the last thing that'd come to my mind while looking at i, no matter the texture quality is quite high.
Helratz Sep 9, 2014 @ 5:04am 
Great Mod, thanks! It would be awesome if you could apply this to the shapes and thickness of the glass blocks for thin reliable armor.
DerFedus Aug 31, 2014 @ 6:18am 
Hi there Guys, any chance that graphics Bug it's fixed?
Synapt Aug 25, 2014 @ 4:56pm 
Any fix yet on the texture bug or still looking into it?

Srgt G: People who want to make a truly dreadnought class ship? :P
Srgt_G Aug 23, 2014 @ 5:46pm 
Heavy armor is already retardedly strong, who would need this?
SkekDris Aug 21, 2014 @ 4:19pm 
So far the amount of matrerials used determines a blocks strength right? What about Deformation ratio? Or items besides steel plates?
YouTube.com/StoneLegion  [author] Aug 21, 2014 @ 4:04pm 
@WhiteWeasel The way the resistance system works it does not quite work like that. For fun try taking a Heavy Armor block and double layering it and firing on it. You will find even that should last a insane time. Now stack it 5 deep. You for sure should never be able to get through it. I think the best way to see it is more layering then anything. But on top of that it's all in 1 block to give it even that more crazy resilience.
SkekDris Aug 21, 2014 @ 12:59pm 
I did a compairison, and well, if it takes 2-3 missiles to destroy a heavy armor block, this should take about 10 right? I may be doing something wrong, but it certainly take more than 5x the missles or bullets to break them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4ju8W3HkTA
SkekDris Aug 20, 2014 @ 8:06pm 
This is a cool idea! I've been wanting to try my hand at SE modding for fun, but I'm no Sage or Darth biomech. How hard was this to make from a coding standpoint? I figuered that adding a stronger version of a block would be a good idea for a beginning mod.
Grim_Repair Aug 20, 2014 @ 5:19am 
As you grind and build the layers are all within the first 20% of the build. Have the values for each layer also been 5x? Also I am not seeing a time difference when grinding or welding. I was hoping for something here to slow griefers down more then heavy armor. So far this just rewards grifters with five times more materials.

Tora Aug 19, 2014 @ 9:18am 
This is offtopic, but where's the titanium... KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!
Tora Aug 19, 2014 @ 9:15am 
Ah, so that's what you meant. Okay, I'll wait for an update. Where you can add a different material or something that maybe reduces weight, gives the strength but requires a boatload of materials to craft it or something. Thanks.
YouTube.com/StoneLegion  [author] Aug 19, 2014 @ 8:53am 
Yeah Vas I can look into removing the edges. Just creating one more mod for my server and then I will check that bug and see if I can make an edgeless version!
Vas Aug 19, 2014 @ 8:50am 
I just noticed, your armor blocks make this thing one solid block. 2.25m³ of solid metal. You can't add any more than 833 steel plates to a single 1x1x1 block. :P

Can you also make a version of this that doesn't have those edge textures? Edgeless armor basically. Like this; http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=300685868
YouTube.com/StoneLegion  [author] Aug 19, 2014 @ 8:48am 
I have not had a chance to figure the bug out with the graphics but I'm on it. For the crash there I highly doubt it would be the armor since the only thing that might effect it was mass and the mass has not changed since the first release. Only the resistance has been increased.
Vas Aug 19, 2014 @ 8:40am 
Did you fix the graphics bug? Also, I'm not sure if the armor is related, but it may have caused an issue when loading my save game file and rotors activated and such. https://www.dropbox.com/s/qgewflczphwj4i0/Screenshot%202014-08-18%2008.24.22.png
YouTube.com/StoneLegion  [author] Aug 19, 2014 @ 8:27am 
The armor is now 5 times stronger and 5 times longer to weld / grind. Make sure you make some kick ass welding ships!
Vas Aug 18, 2014 @ 6:30pm 
I'll resubscribe when this is fixed, or likely when it actually is 5x stronger. I just mostly want it fixed so I can have the actual colors I choose.

Also, 70R4, these only function as heavy armor right now. They have no added strength. The only difference with them, is they are 5x heavier and cost 5x more while adding absolutely nothing else at all other than a broken colorable texture.
Vas Aug 18, 2014 @ 2:02am 
The color doesn't seem to work on all sides. My white blocks are only white on some sides and are grey on the others.
Tora Aug 17, 2014 @ 11:54pm 
Wow, now I have to strip all my secondary armor layers and reapply them across 795x120x200 meters of a battlecruiser... First World problems I suppose.

*Request* Is there anyway you can make these default textures for heavy armor? Or a variant thereof, so as people can sort of super heavy stealth fit their ships? I mean, while I was liking jupiter.tux's textures for niche purposes, it doesn't suit some applications.

After a small pilot error maneuvering accident while in test flight and turning the aforementioned BC around to 'dock', I found that my heavy blocks were effectively tissue paper versus asteroids, so this is a very welcome addition to the mod collection I've acquired, thank you!
[DPRK] rhino1998 Aug 17, 2014 @ 2:40pm 
Wow, these are great for making kinetic torpedos, cause they can withstand basically any ship defense, without being deflected before impacting the armor
Taubiqueur Aug 17, 2014 @ 1:50am 
The lights are not the same on the side of the angle blocks can you fix it please?
duddi Aug 16, 2014 @ 1:30am 
Can you teach me how you made this ? I cant figure out the multy color xml and material from the original game files.
