Viper Avenger Patch

Description
ERECT SNEKS BE GONE!

As the above may say, you may have noticed if you use the viper mods. that at times in the Avenger you will see them appear and due to them lacking the animations to proper appear on the Avenger they will glitch out and A-pose in place. While the most ideal fix would be to give them animations, I am by no means an animator. so I can not do this.

This Patch may also one day become useless if Dangerdude ever updates the mods to make it so that Vipers do not appear in the Avenger. but, for now this [should] stop such things from happening.

This is the first mod I have made it's not something that's all 'that' complex, but I may update it at some point to open it to allow people to add their own templates into it so that they can avoid certain things appearing in the avenger if they glitch out like Vipers do


NOTES
this will NOT stop Vipers appearing on shell menus. which, should not be a problem depending on if you use shell mods with custom animations. But I will try to look into it in the future to see if I can disable them there as well.

It also goes without saying that this mod will require the Allies Unknown Vipers, I will add that, I do not remember if 'normal' vipers appear in the Avenger or not, but I know for certain that the Viper King and Torque would appear. but with this, that should stop that. and if normal vipers did appear for you or anyone else! this [should] stop it!


F.A.Q

Q1: Will this work on long war of the Chosen?
A1: Iunno...I don't play it, It 'should' but don't quote me on that. I don't think the base mod even works on it.

  • Iridar for their amazing guide that makes getting into Modding rather easy.

  • Dangerdude (Mr.Losu) for making the AMAZING Viper Mod, Torque Squadmate and Viper king Squad Mate Without them this mod would, of course. not exist.

This work for Shells too?

Oh hey, I was literally just looking for something exactly like this.

Like the guy down below mentions, I also hope that someone does the same for the shell.

Thank you Rusty

I'll wait and see if they are able be removed from both the Skyranger and Shell Meun, as they don't use ropes when climbing out the Skyranger (tho Vipers do use ADVENT dropship's IIRC, and there is a mod that replaces the Skyranger)

Shell Menu = internal game name for the Main Menu (the game opening screen with new-game, load-game, skirmish, etc)

Unsure about the Skyranger tbh.. it might work to remove from there too, I just can't remember

Hey, great mod, this was one of the reasons that was holding back the Allies Unknown Redux Species: Vipers mod for me, once you are able to nab the shell menus (whatever that means lol) I'll be for sure grabbing it.

However, will this also apply for Skyranger as well?, as they don't have any animations either

THANK YOU! i felt so petty for wanting this but it is a b l e s s i n g to finally get a mod that addresses this! Thank you for hearing my petty prayers!

@Microscope

As of 'right now' No, they likely don't share the same Template, but I'm already working on trying to get this working for configs, along with trying to find out how to make them not appear on shell menus. once the config file is made that will make it so that people can just add whoever or whatever to the list they want to exclude

Congrats on the first mod release!

Does this mod work with Playable Aliens Vipers too or only Allies Unknown Vipers?

A great mod, congratulations, I have a quick question, does this mod work with the movie Snakes on planes?
