      I've quickly reviewed it for you - huge fan of #3 (on the right). I'll give some more details later this week.

                Personally I like Variant 1 and 3 tbh.

                1. Traditional Upgrade Appearence similar like UEF and Cybran.
                2. Unique Appearence, which looks really inspired by the Seraphim Shield Upgrade. Nice choice.

                  Hello everyone,

                  here is my last contribution to this topic for the time being.

                  First of all, a big thank you to CDRMV.

                  He fixed the bug with the orb rotation and adjusted it in all animations. After fixing it, I was able to improve variant 3 a bit more. The update can be found on FAF. Many thanks also to the people who looked at the variants and gave an opinion.

                  At the moment,
                  #3
                  seems to be the clear leader 🙂

                  Since I don't know how to proceed and I don't know whether a version will be included in the game or not, I would ask a moderator to perhaps post a note here.

                  Greetings from Kiel

                      @Saver Would you be fine if we integrate one of these options into the game?

                      If so, then I'll bring it up with the game team.

                        @Deribus I see the mod as support for this discussion. However, as I do not know how and where I can take this dialog further. I would like to ask you to perhaps forward this suggestion to the decision team. I apologize if I have expressed myself incorrectly.

                        @Jip Thank you for your answer. If you like this mod, please feel free to submit it as a suggestion.

                        If the mod needs to be revised again, I will help. Of course, anyone else can also edit this mod. Maybe someone will find a better solution than me.

                          Another hint. I have uploaded another update of the mod. CDRMV looked at the animation from #3 and found errors in my work. He fixed them and provided me with a version. He also tells me that he will try again to integrate the Aeon Bauwasser effect (Mercury Pool).

                          So thanks again to CDRMV

                              Hello everyone,

                              I actually thought I had finished my work on the project for the time being, but no.

                              Yesterday evening CDRMV contacted me and shared another new function with me. We have added this function to the #3 variant and now we believe (hope) that this mod can be submitted to the FAF team as a proposal. @Jip I ask you to take over 🙂 thank you in advance.

                              Here are a few little things that were missing in the variants.

                              Icons:
                              fdffe547-2394-4bac-b0ff-aa0003b107dc-image.png6be141f3-2dae-4aa8-bbb2-cbaae64a709d-image.png

                              The construction time and the buttons for stop and pause have been added.

                              Here is the construction effect
                              4ef89268-f0f7-4985-93ae-c71f401271d8-image.png

                              Here is a small excerpt from the script for those who want to use the effect in other units.
                              fb394607-f3f6-4aa4-a163-7d69cc41f800-image.png
                              OnStartBuild
                              self.MercuryPool = import("/lua/EffectUtilitiesAeon.lua").CreateMercuryPoolOnBone(self, self.Army, 'Pool', 1.5,1.5,1.5, 0.1)

                              OnStopBuild
                              self.MercuryPool:Destroy()

                              I have added the effect to my unitpack. So thanks again to CDRMV.

                              That should be it for now. I would be pleased if a result is written here about the possible proposal.

                                Hello everyone,

                                a little information again on the topic and a small request.

                                I was contacted directly by a player who asked me to change the existing mod into a user mod. I have complied with this request. The mod only contains the #3 version.

                                the new mod: AEON T2 upgrade to T3 Shild

                                If there are any questions about the mod or other existing projects, please ask them in the respective forums so that they don't get lost or duplicated.

                                  @Saver @CDRMV I've written a PR integrating the third variant in your mod: https://github.com/FAForever/fa/pull/6877.

                                    @Nomander Thank you for your feedback 🙂 and your report. Perhaps you should use the separate mod as a template.

                                      @Saver Does the separate mod have extra changes? I already used the third variant from the original mod as the template.

                                        @Nomander Hi, the separate mod should contain all parts without the other variants. I have not changed anything else. Only the designation, so that only variant 3 is included and this replaces the standard T2 shield. Sorry for my bad english ^^
