BL2 Shields Brand Replacer

Description
Featured as "Most Popular in the last week" for a while in 21/04/2020

In-universe brands for those who want them!
This mod replaces the brands within the BL2 Shields Mod with in-universe existing, made-up and modded content brands.
Requires the BL2 Shields mod (well, it doesn't require it, per se, but it won't do anything without the mod).

- Anshin to Protectorate - I figured that the once-great planetary union would still have large amounts of stockpiled defensive gear up for grabs;
- Bandit still the same, but more of a "crudely etched with a knife" style of logo;
- DAHL to USCM - both were once military companies, which have fallen and had their weapons scavenged;
- Hyperion to Letheia - both large corporations with disposable income, personnel and more;
- Jakobs becomes Deputy, a made-up brand inspired by the Novakids, their relation to the Wild West and love of old guns;
- Maliwan to Miniknog Elemental Arms Division, another made-up brand - I figured it would be the Apex's Ministry of Knowledge who would run research and development on elemental weaponry and such;
- Pangolin to Nomada, the branding of the Avikan weaponry from the Elithian Races mod;
- Tediore to AAE, short for Advanced Aeginian Engineering, also from Elithian Races mod;
- Torgue to Dreadwing, yet another made-up brand, this one related to the space pirate penguin and their love of military explosives;
- Vladof to Occasus, the mark of the oppressive, extremist human group led by Asra Nox.

I didn't install the shield mod cause I didn't want Borderlands stuff in my next playthrough, saw this and went right back to get it! Thank you for making this!

@WhatThePuck
you're welcome, and thank you for looking into it.

Alright, I tested it out with the most recent version of BL2 Shields in my modded instance - I did not experience any crashes myself, which is... kinda unfortunate news for you, since I have no idea what could be causing the crash. Apologies :/

@AbsoluteZero Hmm... You're right, I may need to check for issues soon. It's not incompatible with anything, BUT- the Shields mod was updated on the 18th of January of this year, and there might've been some change to the mod's ID or something like that.
Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

I'm not sure if this mod still works. i get a crash when i try to use it. Is this mod incompatible with anything?

Alright! Thanks for the information, I'll be enjoying your mod as I like the idea of more in-universe lore respect.

It won't, since all it does is replace the textures related to the brand logos. Think of it as like a Minecraft texture pack - it replaces the textures of the logos just for you, and other players without this mod will just see the regular logos.
