Commander Survival Kit (A new SIM Mod)

said in Commander Survival Kit (A new SIM Mod):

hi, sorry, I didn’t think to write in English right away
I'm interested in units like "A-50 Thunderbolt". "Caspian monster" “helicopter”
, but I would like to touch all the units, how they behave, and so on
installed this way
1- downloaded both github repositories and put them in the mods folder
This is a method without a boot "doucher"
2-
with the boot "launcher" I unpacked it into the folders called "mods" and "game data"

@frost_OTBEPTKA
Regarding to the Commander Survival Kit If you Play FAF you don't need the Gamedata Folder. The Gamedata Folder which includes the SCD Files is only required for the Steam/Retail (Vanilla) Version of the Game.

If you Download the GitHub Repository for example of the Commander Survival Kit you will need to Put the included Folders, which are inside the Mods Folder for example Commander Survival Kit, Commander Survival Kit Units, Commander Survival Kit Ammunition and so on into your Mods Folder. After that is done you can activate the Mods in the Mod Manager and they will Work. Same goes for Mechdivers where you need to put the Mechdivers Folder which is inside the Mods from GitHub into your Mods Folder than activate the Mod in the Mod Manager. The Units which you are looking for are included in the Mod Commander Survival Kit Units (CSK Units) So If you want to Play them Put the Commander Survival Kit Units Folder from the Mods Folder from GitHub into the Mods Folder of the Game and activate the Mod in the Mod Manager.

Too bad it doesn't work with FAF.

[CDRMV]

@QuantumTyphoon
The Mod works with FAF but you have install the Mod incorrectly that is the Problem.

Why did you don't download the Mod from the FAF Modvault?

I See you have install the Github Version of the Mod.
If you download the Mod from Github the extracted Folder is called Commander-Survival-Kit-main. If you want to install the Mod correctly open this Folder and you will find the Commander Survival Kit Folder inside the included Mods Folder. Put the Commander Survival Kit Folder into your Mods Folder and activate the Mod in the Mod Manager. If you have any throubles let me know I will help you.

Note:
I have Update the First Post with the Information that the Mod is downloable on the FAF Modvault as Well.

[QuantumTyphoon]

@CDMV that did it. Thanks.

[CDRMV]

Hello everyone,
its time for an new Development Report of Mechdivers.
Lets See what is new:

Landing Pad
The Design of this Structure is based on the Landing Pad from Helldivers 2. You can now build these two following Units with this Structure:

Pelican Tech 3 Mech Marine Transport Gunship,
Hercules Tech 3 Vehicle Transport Gunship

So there are No longer be buildable in the regular Air Factory from the Game.

'Slatter' - Tech 3 Heavy Anti Air-SAM Launcher
This Missile Launcher is designed to shot down large enemy Air Units such as Air Transports and Air Experimentals only. It comes with 24 Missiles in its Storage and will going to automatically refuel it once it gets empty. Compared to the regular T3 AA SAM Launchers from the Game itself such as the UEF Flayer the Slatter has an larger Range to use his Missiles. Buildable by Tech 3 Engineer's and SACU's It comes with an full Set of nice Unpack Animations as well. The Design is based on the S.E.A.F SAM Site from Helldivers 2.

Drop Flag
Basically an Droppod with an animated Flag.
It has its own Capture Mechanic
The Flag and the Mast are animated too.
Design is based on the Super Earth Flag Strategem from the Game Helldivers 2

Umanned/Manned Emancipator and Patriot
The Emancipator and Patriot Multifunctional Support Bots of the UEF has got an Model Update which adds an Cockpit/Inferior to them. So you can now Unman/Man them with an Single Mech Marine as an Pilot to make them Functional

'Berserker' - Tech 2 Advanced Melee Bot (Melee Unit)
Basically an Devastator without his armor and more fractured as usual. He is armed with two Titanium Chainsaws on both Arms, which makes him very dangerous in close range. This Unit comes with the Speed Boost Ability. Buildable in the Tech 2 Advanced Heavy Factory. The Design is based on the Automaton Berserker from the Game Helldivers 2. Yes the Chainsaw is animated as well

'CX-300: Factory Strider' - Tech 3.5/Elite Heavy Walker
A large four-legged Walker which is armed with two Rapid Fire Fusion MG Cannons on its Head. It comes with an build in Devastator Factory. The Design is based on the Automaton Factory Strider from the Game Helldivers 2.

The Factory Strider comes with several other Official and Custom Variations as Well

For example:

A Variant with an Tactical Jammer, which disables Shields of enemy Units in Range. Its able to Shot Flares in Sky to call in Land Reinforcements delivered by Air Transports

A Variant with an Missile Battery on its Back for Long Distance Fire Support for your Armies

A Variant with an Detector Tower on its Back.
If the Tower discovers an enemy Unit it will be able to call in Land Reinforcements delivered by Air Transports as Well.

Note: The Screenshots of those Factory Striders above are a Bit outdated since the Model has get a few little Updates with additions

Landing Pad
To build the large Tech 3 Air Transport Drone based on the Automaton Dropship from Helldivers 2 an Landing Pad has been added into the Mod. So it is No longer buildable in the regular Air Factory of the Game.

AI Support Expansion
Mechdivers has get an huge Expansion when it comes with its AI Support of its Units recently. With the introduction of the new Factories and Landing Pads the AI Support Had to be expaned Code wise to make them fully buildable and usable by the AI. This is has been successfully implement into the Mod. So the AI builds the new Factories and Landing Pads and the Units which are buildable by them.

About the Commander Survival Kit
Next to of the Progress on Mechdivers the next Versions of the Commander Survival Kit and Commander Survival Kit Timeos are getting closer thier Release. Currently I Work on the Descriptions for the Enhancement Upgrades of the Callable Drop Turrets and Drop Supply Stations for the Commander Survival Kit to give you an better Overview what they do in Detail.

[JoTape79]

hello again my friend
I was wondering when you're going to create more units for the Aeon and Seraphim factions this is a great project Mod

[CDRMV]

@JoTape79
Hello sorry for the late Response. I'm actually busy in the Week because of my Job, which Mod do you mean specifically? Mechdivers or CSK Units? I and my Team will going to Create new Units for the Aeon and Seraphim soon.

Regarding to Mechdivers:
I will Post the next Development Report soon.
Currently I Work on several new Content for it, which takes time to complete.

[JoTape79]

@CDRMV yes, I was talking about supreme commander units (CSK Units) ..... I've never heard about Mechdivers ? .... mechdivers is another mod ?

[CDRMV]

@JoTape79
Yes Mechdivers is an another Mod, which is currently in Development by myself and already in Early Access on my GitHub Repository. It is focused on to add Units based on the two Helldivers Games (Helldivers 1 and Helldivers 2) into Supcom next to of an planned Gamemode in the future.

[bayopello]

You can still spawn reinforcements and airstrikes being dead. Also when you are spawning the schathis is bugged and doesn't shoot. Mod is very cool. I love it

[CDRMV]

Hello @bayopello
glad to hear you love the Mod.

About the two Topic you mentioned above:

Topic 1:
You can still spawn reinforcements and airstrikes being dead.
Personally I See this more as an Feature instead of an Bug. However it should get an Lobby Option, which allows you to manage this directly before you start a Match. I think it could be useful in an Survival related Match as an example, where Players fight against waves of AI Units. A Player, which has lose his ACU and Base during this Fight he could be still able to help his ally Players with additional Reinforcements and Fire Support or can try to rebuild his Base. In Multiplayer I can See that could be unfair If an Player who has lose anything is still able to call something. So yes to solve this I would make this Manageable as an Feature with its own Lobby Option in the Lobby.

Topic 2:
Also when you are spawning the schathis is bugged and doesn't shoot
That is clearly an Bug and I already know where the Problem is.
The Mod adds an Clone of the Mobile Scathis into the Game.
The Reason for this is Brewlan changes the Scathis from an Mobile Artillery to an Structure.
So to make the Mod still Compatible with Brewlan I have add this Scathis Clone to reintroduce the Mobile Artillery Scathis to make it Callable as an Land Reinforcement Unit. The Problem is the Code is still the one from Vanilla and Not the one from FAF. So I will need to add the FAF Code of this Unit with an Version Check to make this Unit functional in FAF. I have forget that so thanks to let me know. Since this Issue is FAF only I can Upload an Hotfix on the FAF Modvault to fix this. For Vanilla and Loud is this Not needed since they use the Vanilla Code but it will be included in the next Patch.

[CDRMV]

Hello everyone,
I have upload Version 27 of the Commander Survival Kit (CSK) on the FAF Modvault.

Overview:

Bug Fix:

Cybran Land Reinforcements Manager (Experimental Section)

Callable Experimental Unit:

'Scathis' - Cybran Experimental Mobile Artillery

• Add an Version Check for Vanilla and FAF, which loads the correct Unit Code for the specific Gameversion. This fixes the Issue that the Unit wasn't able to fire in FAF (Was reported by @bayopello)

@kilatamoro I have seen your 1 Star Review for the Commander Survival Kit recently.
Personally I think the Issue you mentioned is caused by an another Mod. The Commander Survival Kit doesn't has a Function, which keep your Units selected (It doesn't even touch them).

So the Questions which I have for you are:

• Were any other mods activated?
• When did the problem start?
• Were there any errors in the log?
• Is there a replay of the error that I can watch?
• If you Play the Commander Survival Kit without any other Mods activated did the Issue appear as Well?

As always if you find any Issues with the Commander Survival Kit please let me know about that directly. So I can look into it to fix it or I can work on it to make the Mod compatible with the specific Mod.

Thank you for your Support.
Anyway have fun and stay tuned for more Updates related to Mechdivers.
Best regards
