SS2 TF's Secmod 2.8 [obsolete]

[6740caa840974OneofTheMany]

Alright

[6740caa840f3dThiefsieFool]

I take it that the inventory slots are hard-coded as well ?

I'm curious as to what's in store for v2.9 ? Also is it possible to have a weapon hack objects from a range ? I figure it would make a interesting Tinker Craft Tool or Navy-Class starting weapon. Perhaps even be able to hack Bots ?

Also are there going to be more Hybrid variants ? A pistol wielding one would be a good menacing one to encounter mid-way into the game or better yet making use of those new weapons you've brought in. Alternatively maybe a Protocol Droid Security variant ? Would make it difficult to avoid if it can shoot at you as well as try to explode.

They are hardcoded yes, and actually there will be an update relatively soon but nothing crazy, just some adjustments and bugfixes.

I might be asking for much here but if so, please tell me in a nice way and I'll stop right away.

I wonder if there's an "only effects" version? I mean a version only with the new lightning, the cabinets and boxes animations etc etc.
The difficulty is way too much for me. I'd like a challenge over the default, rather dumb AI but this is murder :p

[6740caa8411cbvoodoo47]

I can answer that - no, but the shiny stuff will be ported into SCP eventually.

[6740caa8412f6OneofTheMany]

Sounds awesome to me, Voodoo. Now I really can't wait for SCP :p

If difficulty is the issue, just try playing on Easy, since everything gets easier including hybrid speeds and that type of stuff.

[6740caa8414d7Recon-Unit 1]

In Secmod, are recyclers fixed to not break down weapons ? Or would it cause a crash with the new included weapons ?

I do play on easy

[6740caa841846Join2]

^Hehe. Think I'll start this when I'm done with Morrowind.

[6740caa84193bThiefsieFool]

For the record, I was wrong and the hybrids don't get easier on Easy but this will be fixed in the patch which is coming in a few days at the latest.

Niiice!

I got some problems with Secmod. Three examples, the wall behind the dude in the training station's shuttle bay keeps changing textures depending on the angle of the view.
Unbreakable glass panes have stripes all over them. When succeeding a hack there's a message saying something about a debug going from 0 to various numbers each time.
Sometimes when modding a weapon the squares aren't clickable.

There's probably more bugs out there. I know you're working on an update but I don't take any chances. Just letting you know.

[6740caa841c34voodoo47]

the first thing - are you running ACC 400 mod by any chance?

[6740caa841d17Primitive Primate]

As a matter of fact, yeah. Is there conflicts with that and Secmod?

[6740caa841f0aPrimitive Primate]

Thanks. What about the other bugs I mentioned?

[6740caa841fdcvoodoo47]

the glass is a feature, the rest are probably genuine bugs.

[6740caa8420b7Primitive Primate]

Because that's how glass works in the future and since we don't know that yet all we can do is imagine?

[6740caa84218bvoodoo47]

because that's the model the author chose to use. don't make go dr. Doom on you.

[6740caa842311Nameless Voice]

The last two will already be fixed in the upcoming patch.

[6740caa8423e5Primitive Primate]

The debug and modifying bug?

[6740caa842535Nameless Voice]

Yes.

[6740caa842605Primitive Primate]

Do used up hypos actually have some purpose?

[6740caa84270cvoodoo47]

yes. you can make new hypos out of them.
