is the new MUCH BETTER ONE ready ?

Outdated for real ? :(

取消这些MOD。使用DLC全新创造一个新的， 毕竟太旧了，2022年了，

Anyone know how to make small ship macs use the conveyor system? The ammo won't pass through any size conveyors at all.

I have no clue what lines to change in the mod itself to enable this

when will there be new ones?

hell yeah! im super excited that you got back into the scene again and have been waiting for something similar to your mod come along. just nothing really has. though i do hope WeaponCore gets multiplayer compatibility

Wardog: Actually I've given some juicy models to Spacebar that he aims to do something with. The UNSC ones have the most potential at the moment, I'll try to get more out of him but he definitely wants to do stuff with it now that we have the WeaponCore

so @MrEvan312 any progress updates on that juicy replacement for this mod?

I see in the introduction that anyone can use and change this MOD. Just notice.

I want to add this MOD to my MOD.

so as i've discovered the macs still work but they fire about 15 (large) blocks through a target before they explode not to sure why but it means they only really work as AP rounds against larger ships right now

does this only happen to me or do the Mac rounds just pass trough the target and do no damage?

If this is "Outdated/Abandoned" then where is the new one?

any luck or progress?

Ok i put a super Mac and a normal one as a group on a 1/1 scale frigate and hell ensued

:D :D :D

Never :)

I LOVE YOU! YOU DIDNT ABANDON US!!!

No luck on the PC, but I've been hard at work with the basic models for the new weapons, nearing completion of the basics for the UNSC and I'll work on textures and stuff like that next. If need be, I'll give the project over to someone else to finish, all this hard work won't be for nothing

i cant wait for you to make the new one

any luck in getting a new pc? :D

I certainly aim to make it so.

Gotcha, still will be worth the wait. :D

There won't be an update, but I will release a separate mod. I'm starting to work out some of the smaller details that I can do without my PC until I get a new one.

I love this mod ^_^ Can't wait for update.

Right, this mod was so placeholder and I had no concept of how to balance the guns at all except for fire rate and damage. The new SMAC will have the highest fire rate (although will still only fire at about 6 rpm with the second highest, the Mk. II Frigate MAC being 3) but will be the most expensive for parts, be the biggest (thus harder to fit on anything not designed to carry it) and be a power-hungry monster.

The new MACs will be balanced with different sizes, power requirements, materials (I'll add two unique materials "electromagnetic coils" for the guns and "depleted uranium" for the projectiles) damage, range, ROF, etc.

I'll have a new PC in a couple weeks and I might have some help to get the guns made, as well as at least the basic Covie and UNSC weapons. Current plan is the four food groups: MACs, Archers, Energy Projectors, Point Defense (for both sides).

Just an FYI, Supermacs actually have the highest refire rate of all UNSC capital scale MACs. The highest ROF is about 12 rounds a minute, or one every 5 seconds. They have the juice to maintain that ROF because of massive groundside generators beaming power up to them.

Any progress on the new mac mod?

Possibly. And it still works, basically, it's just no longer maintained and hopefully the new guns will exceed these ones in all aspects.

So, this mod has to be the most useful, and most subscribed-to mod, that is Abandoned, right?

FYI, now have found it under weapons in the G menu. Look for the miniature Halo ship silhouettes on a white backgrounds!

Here is a picture of said tank -

Look how sad he is because he has no railgun...
:(

Thank you. I tried searching for 'halo' and found nothing. I selected the weapons folder on the left of the G menu and sadly can't see it anywhere. Really want the small ship version on my tank!! :)

Try looking up individual guns with the search bar. The thumbnails may not work anymore (I'll look into it later.)

Can't seem to see this in G menu, any ideas?

It should still basically function, so go ahead. Me and Razor are finally starting work on the set. No ETA

Haha! lol! Does this still work please? Been looking for a fixed rail gun for small grid tank I'm working on. Thanks.

Jhenry: Good heavens, man, we're not savages, DX9 for SE is dead and buried :D

excuse me Mr. Raverton, is this DX11? just asking

MR Evan,
oh man that sucks! you'd think with suck an awesome mod at stake people would be jumping at it. -_-

but in my opinion you're doing the devs work for them

I could try talking to some of my contacts at digipen, see if they are interested?

happy new years btw

I mean, we're dealing with a game that has artificial gravity GENERATORS and JUMP DRIVES, how is that attainable?

I've been working for ages to get in touch with other modders with very little success

Atris: Rockets and Bullets are the most basic weapons ever, these aren't even guided missiles, which we use today in abundance. And this game is set AGES into the future, too!

you could also contact other modders... cause what space engineers is lacking is BIG weapons

(reads the devs reasons for such small weapons) attainable technology my ass. we already have military lasers and a railgun. so what happened to that tech in this game XD

I have no idea at this rate when the new ones will get done. I'll pester Razor a bit to see if he can help me again...

where is the current one? if this one is abandoned, if it isnt up then i cant wait to see what you guys do ^_^

C: i can't wait for it

Palps: My official pack will have shorter ranges than they do in this pack, but I may introduce a long ranged version after. Got to get the damn things working first...

Soro: Don't worry, the new ones will be worth it.

rip outdated ;c

When will it be updated? And could you make it so they have a really long range like they should?

Don't worry, the new guns look better, there are unique models, I may be able to give them big muzzle flashs, and there will be better balancing

Yeah that makes sense; I think they just disapear. Damn shame -- I really enjoyed this mod, was the centerpeice of my Halo In Amber Clad...literally heh.
