    Realistic Vehicles & Train derailment modification

    Realistic Vehicles & Train derailment modification

    This mod is for those who want some realism 🙂

    “The damage and durability points/”health”/HP of vehicles and their weapons are somewhat equalized.”–JC4 wiki

    This mod makes all military vehicles to have HP and weapon damage appropriate to how they look.

    Note:

    To achieve “reality,” I created a simple armor system. Vehicles will be divided into two categories: normal and [bulletproof], and weapon damage will be divided into bullet and [explosion]. [bulletproof] vehicles only take [explosion] damage, while normal vehicles take both bullet and [explosion] damage.

    This mod set a more suitable weight for military vehicles and heavy civilian vehicles (heavier than vanilla game), better grip performance (reducing vehicle liftoff due to collisions), reduces the top speed and acceleration of some vehicles (such as tanks).

    Some infantry weapons (RPGs and sniper rifles) have also been modified to destroy vehicles with increased hp

     

    Optional files

    There are two optional files: 02-Harder to derail trains, 03-Realistic heavy civilian vehicles.

    With 02-Harder to derail trains, you need 2 Warchief Assault Tank to stop the train, it also makes weapon car shot 2×1600 [explosion] damage and howitzer car with 50000 [explosion] damage.

    With 03-Realistic heavy civilian vehicles, civilian vehicles like heavy crane, semi-trailer trucks, mine truck, large ships and airliner will have increased HP and some will be bulletproof.

    Loaded Rebels – Improve the AI Rebel Armory

    Loaded Rebels – Improve the AI Rebel Armory

    TIRED OF YOUR REBELS HAVING THE PUNIEST GUNS? MAKE ‘EM FULLY LOADED & UPGRADE THEIR ARSENAL

    Give your rebels that shiny MG w/shield

    This mod gives rebels, especially those patrolling roads, bases, & cities, improved weaponry. It will also alter rebel weaponry on the frontlines.

    NOTES:

    v1 – Upgrade rifle, shotgun, machinegun (MG w/ shield), & add SMG

    This version upgrades the assault rifle to the ones used by the Blackhand, the shotgun to the full-auto shotgun, the MG to the one with a shield, and adds the SMG to the rebel arsenal.
    This bumps up gun variety from 3 to 4.

    v2 – Upgrade rifle, shotgun, machinegun (MG w/ shield)

    This version upgrades the assault rifle to the ones used by the Blackhand, the shotgun to the full-auto shotgun, the MG to the one with a shield
    This upgrades all 3 guns without adding the SMG, making gun variety = 3

    v3 – Upgrade rifle, shotgun, stock machinegun

    This version upgrades the assault rifle to the ones used by the Blackhand, the shotgun to the full-auto shotgun

    v4 – Upgrade rifle, shotgun, add SMG, remove MG

    This version upgrades the assault rifle to the ones used by the Blackhand, the shotgun to the full-auto shotgun, adds SMG to the arsenal, but entirely removes any MGs.

    EXTRA NOTES:

    The vanilla XML file is included, so are the modded ones.

    I’ve changed out lines in the code such as editorentitiesweapons�1_wieldedwpn_010_machine_gunwpn_010_machine_gun.ee

    With editorentitiesweapons�1_wieldedwpn_011_machine_gunwpn_011_machinegun.ee

    This replaces the original heavy MG with the MG w/shield.

    Alternatively, you can switch out tags on each gun (I myself have had less success with this method, but still give it a shot)

    Rebels use guns marked with tags such as “aoc” “aoc_private” “aoc_gen_frontline”, etc. aoc_private = rebels that dont spawn in frontlines
    Just add / remove these tags and test if their arsenal changed to your liking.

    Of course, don’t forget to convert XML to BIN via Ashen’s Mod Tool’s “PropertyContainer” exe, then put the BIN into your dropzone -> settings folder

    BUGS / ODDITIES:

    So far, minor bug where they don’t hold the guns properly. Very minor cosmetic bug.

    More Rebels – Convert Civilians to Rebels

    More Rebels – Convert Civilians to Rebels

    This download now contains all my mods that alter spawn_character_defs

    TURN THOSE USELESS FLEEING CIVILIANS INTO DIE HARD REBELS FOR YOUR CAUSE

    NOTES:

    In ALL versions, the rebels are in their tier 3 (the max. tier) look, meaning rebels look more like actual soldiers with their helmets & body armor.
    This mod does not convert ALL civilians to rebels. Only some or most.
    No main characters are converted so the game doesn’t break.

    v1 – Convert generic civilians & some workers to rebels.

    Here, all civilians classified as “generic” in the XML file are converted to rebels. This version also includes converting workers like scientists, mechanics, & prisoners to rebels. There are rebels in bases, docks, cities, and roads.

    v2 – Convert less/some generic civilians & some workers to rebels.

    In v2, about 66% of “generic” civilians are converted into rebels. This was done to lessen the sheer amount of rebels inside cities. This version also includes converting workers like scientists, mechanics, & prisoners to rebels. There are rebels in bases, docks, cities, and roads.

    v3 – Convert generic civilians only to rebels

    Here, all civilians classified as “generic” in the XML file are converted to rebels. This version gives you a fair amount of rebels on the roads and inside cities. Not so much bases, docks, etc.

    v4 – Convert some workers only to rebels

    This version doesn’t give you rebels on the roads or in cities, but puts rebels inside military bases, airport, checkpoints, docks, etc. Generally, scientists, mechanics, & prisoners are converted to rebels.

    EXTRA NOTES:

    The vanilla XML file is included, so are the modded ones.
    Let’s say you want to convert a vagrant civilian female to a Blackhand titan,

    Replace the line

    editor/entities/characters/civilians/15_poor/civ_vagrant_female_001.ee

    With

    editor/entities/characters/combatants/enemy/titan/titan_enemy_001.ee

    Now save the XML, and convert the XML to BIN via Ashen’s Mod Tool’s “PropertyContainer” exe. Put the BIN file into dropzone -> settings

    BUGS / ODDITIES

    Sometimes, civilian helicopters will hover around enemies as if to engage them. This is because a rebel is now piloting the civilian helicopter, mimicking the behavior of an attack chopper.

    More Chaos – A Factions Mod

    More Chaos – A Factions Mod

    THINGS BECOME A LITTLE MORE EXCITING WHEN THERE’S MORE SHOOTING, EXPLOSIONS, AND DEATH IN SOLIS

    NOTES:

    v1 – Black Hand are hostile towards civilians & the “police” & “soldiers” factions.

    This results in some of the military shooting each other or their own drones depending on what faction each enemy type is in.
    Military shoots civilians too.

    v2 – Military are hostile towards civilians

    This makes enemies shoot civilians on site. Similar to v1 except the military wont shoot each other (or their own drones) from time to time anymore.

    v3 – Rebels be bad too

    This is similar to v1, except the rebels shoot civilians too.

    v4 – Utter chaos

    This makes it so everyone is hostile towards everyone, including Rico.

    v5 – Disorganized military

    This makes the military shoot each other from time to time, but they wont shoot civilians.

    EXTRAS:

    I’ve included the XML files in case someone wants to edit it to their own.
    Use Ashen’s Mod Tool’s “PropertyContainer” exe to convert from XML to BIN.

    In the XML:

    value of 1 = hostile

    value of 0 = friendly

    value of 4294967295 = neutral

    For example, if you’re gonna edit the relationship between rebels and rico, make sure to change the values under the rico and rebel headings respectively.
