Oops, sorry! (Didn't even noticed you mistyped my name lol) But don't worry, I think I typed it correctly in the _metadata file :lunar2019laughingpig:

Anyway, thank you!

Sure thing Xeilbar, added a link to your thing.

Also you misspelled my name which gave me an excellent excuse to do the same haha

Hi Vaneke14, I know you're no longer updating this mod, but do you mind editing the description to include compatible edition with Supper's Combat Overhaul?

This one is the link:
Supper's Combat Overhaul: Aimable Shields

Thanks!

Was working yesteday, and now not working all of a sudden? Changed absolutely nothing and checked the logs for errors and saw nothing regarding this mod. :v

Yup, it's client side.
Lami. 17 Dec, 2019 @ 3:00am 
Is it client side or server side? Great mod btw.

This is working fine in 1.4 :)
drWoof 18 Jun, 2019 @ 11:21am 
Actually, no, nevermind, even without this mod it throws Application: exception thrown, shutting down: (MapException) Key 'genericScriptContexts' not found in Map::get() . So its likely not because of the mod.

Does not seem to work in 1.4

spears are already aimable
MasterOfBacon 5 Dec, 2017 @ 2:44pm 
another mod author made a mod that allows spears to be aimed maybe you two could make a pack together ? here is the link to his mod :) :necroheart:
AVSManfred 25 Nov, 2017 @ 2:48pm 
i like tihs idea a lot, i had some ideas for further improovments on combat yet' i'm nto really good at moding, and woudl like to know if you're interested in reading about them, and eventully trying to make mods adding them ?
Fopsky; Resident Nerd 🎀 13 Nov, 2017 @ 2:55am 
any chance of someone to create a mod that makes your character looks where you are aiming at ???
this seems to be a more important detail than aimable shields, but this is a usefull mod tho
Vanake14  [author] 24 Sep, 2017 @ 9:07am 
Okay, weird...
Juon 24 Sep, 2017 @ 8:56am 
no
Syke Stryker 24 Sep, 2017 @ 8:13am 
Mod suddenly stared working again dunno why.
Vanake14  [author] 24 Sep, 2017 @ 7:20am 
Do you have any other mods that affect shields?

FU and FR break it for example (separate versions for those in the description).
Juon 24 Sep, 2017 @ 6:45am 
I have a bug I already uninstalled and installed but it did not work the shield
continuous do not move
Syke Stryker 18 Sep, 2017 @ 10:34pm 
This mod suddenly stopped working for me which is odd since I haven't added any other shield mods like dark riot shield that would possible conflict.
Vanake14  [author] 4 Sep, 2017 @ 11:12pm 
Made a version for FR, so use this one instead of the other ones. I think it works...

Frackin Races seems to not play well with this mod, unfortunately. Weird because it was working fine before, but after its recent update, shields stopped being aimable for me.
Mirage 11 Aug, 2017 @ 12:03am 
thank you
finaly aimable shieldsis back
Vanake14  [author] 10 Aug, 2017 @ 4:21am 
Yep, FU overwrites shield.lua.
Here's a version of this mod that integrates my lua changes:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1106142841

Makes FU shields behave a bit nicer as well.
Vanake14  [author] 9 Aug, 2017 @ 10:31pm 
Hm, alright, I'll take a look later.

Unfortunetly doesn't works with Frackin Universe. I just tested here with only FU and this MOD enabled and is not working. Without FU works 100% fine.

I think is because FU already include some custom aimable shields and overwrite the same file this MOD uses. Maybe you can find out a way to make both MODs compatible.

Thanks anyway! Great work as always! :D

wait I can just check myself, sorry to bother you
Amicus 8 Aug, 2017 @ 1:26am 
does this change parry.lua?
DANKOD!™ Internet Superstar 7 Aug, 2017 @ 2:00pm 
Its useful. The dark riot shield is pretty op early game, now i can use the vanilla ones, thanks a lot :)
Vanake14  [author] 7 Aug, 2017 @ 2:26am 
Seems so. I don't use that though, and vanilla shields are still unaimable so my mod still has a purpose...
Alb 6 Aug, 2017 @ 4:59pm 
Frackin universe modded shields are aimable last I checked.
Dayus Vandul 6 Aug, 2017 @ 6:56am 
the dark riot shield mod is aimable
Yuffy 5 Aug, 2017 @ 12:30pm 
oh hey i made a discussion about that a day or two ago
Vanake14  [author] 5 Aug, 2017 @ 12:08pm 
@*Yuki* Nope, only the shield protects you, it can be shot over (or under) and your back is completely vulnerable. Try touching a monster with your back while having a shield raised.
Family share dimi 5 Aug, 2017 @ 11:27am 
Something that should have been in the vanilla game in my opinion.
*Yuki* 5 Aug, 2017 @ 11:00am 
iirc vanilla shields already protect you from any damage, until they are up. Or Im wrong?
Atrosatiro 5 Aug, 2017 @ 10:36am 
Thank you, man. I was just wondering why I couldn't aim my shield yesterday XD then I remembered it was a mod. Blessed be thy shield bringer!
BigGreenGayDad 5 Aug, 2017 @ 5:59am 
It's finally back! Thank you so much for making this! I missed this being a thing.
