Commander Survival Kit (A new SIM Mod)
-
Hello everyone,
before I start with the newest Development Report for the Unit Pack of this Project.
I want to Inform you about the Situation to upload the recent Version 2.0.2 of the Commander Survival Kit on the FAF Modvault.As you know I have contact @Brutus5000 a few Weeks ago related to my Upload Problem of the Mod.
I have get this following answer from him:"Hi there, I am sorry to tell you that we are under a 100mb upload limit since we had to hide all web service behind cloudflare to protect ourselves from DDoS - even in the pro version we are paying for. There is no affordable way to raise this limit. And since the DDoS is still running on other services, we have no time to come up with alternative solutions."
In other Words the recent Version 2.0.2 and any following Versions of the Commander Survival Kit can not be uploaded on the FAF Modvault until the upload llmit is increased by the FAF Team in the future. So the only way to get the newest Version of the Mod is to download it from its official Moddb Page: https://www.moddb.com/mods/commander-survival-kit-csk/downloads. As soon as the upload limit is increased by the FAF Team in the future, I will of course upload the mod to the FAF Modvault.

Once activated the Gatling Turret of this Vehicle is able to shot down incoming Tactical Missiles.

Hello everyone,
I have release the Version 2.0.4 for the Commander Survival Kit as an Hotfix on Moddb today.
This Hotfix fixes the Black Screen Issue, if you start a Match with the Mod in FAF Version 3822Version 2.0.4 (HotFix):
Bug Fix:
Hook (gamemain.lua):
- Removes the import("/lua/ui/game/casting/painting.lua") Entry for the FAF Version of the Game.
With the new recent published FAF Version 3822 the painting.lua has been fully removed from FAF.
That causes a Black Screen if you to start a match with the previous Version of the Mod in FAF Version 3822
Best regards

this is a great mod
but I suggest to change the cybrans portraits icons on the UI menu , they seem very dark and poor of art 
-
@JoTape79
Which Portrait Icons do you mean specifically? The ones of the callable Units from the Reinforcements Manager? If you want you can send me an Screenshot to Show me them, because it is better to See it directly what you mean. I'll add your suggestion to my to-do list. However, please note that improving, recoloring, and redesigning the icons will take a lot of development time. If you have Discord, feel free to join my Discord server. This will make it easier to communicate later when I rework these icons. -

@CDRMV I will send you a screenshot soon as possible
-
@CDRMV
for example.... these portraits of units that I marked in the photo are a little weird compared to the originals , I recommend to change the texture of the pictures 
-
@JoTape79
Oh, those are the unit build icons you mean.
For me the icons themselves look good (Not prefect) except that they are a bit too dark.
But as always improvements can be done anytime so I'll see what I can do. -
@CDRMV From my experience, those icons are very good looking but if you can make them more lighter is will be perfect
.. Supreme commander is one of my favorites games you've done a great job making this mod I've done Maps and Mods for other RTS games such : command & conquer 3 , C&C Generals , starcraft 2 , WH 40k dawn of war , Age of Empires .... I will be focused for your new updates that you make in the future for this mod.... -
@JoTape79
Yeah I agree they will probably look much better If there are more lighter. Glad to hear that alot and thanks for the compliment. The Commander Survival Kit is of course still Not fully finished yet and will be expanded with more Features and callable Stuff in the Future. For example callable Units as Reinforcements from other popular Unit Mods such as Brewlan, Blackops, 4DC and of course my own ones. Next to of this new callable Air Strikes, Drop Defenses and more will join the roster. Next to of it the new upcoming Standalone Unit Pack Mechdivers which contains the Units based on the Game Helldivers 2 will is currently in Development and its First Version will be released soon of its finished.Wow you have done alot as well when it comes to Mods and Maps for these Games.
I Played.a few of them so I will going to Check them Out in the Futureif I have the time.
As always I'm Open for any kind of Help for my Mods. So If you have interest someday to create new Units for Supcom I would be glad to add them into my Unit Pack.;)Keep up to good Work on your Projects as well.

cool mod! i love helldivers! looking forward to release. maybe you can give me some advice. i made a post earlier today about how i wanted to rotate a units position because in a mod i am using most of the point defense buildings are rotated like 30 degrees to the left not aligning with other units. the mod also does this to some of the vanilla and units from other mods. i'm trying to correct that but as i'm new to modding. i'm still learning. any advice u can provide would be a great help. @CDRMV
