Ok no worries, take your time

Unfortunately, I don't have a set ETA. The revamp project has been in the works for the better part of a couple of years now (because I'm only one person), and when I think I'm onto a good idea, I second-guess myself and choose to scrap it.

However, the current progress I've made is looking very promising, so I'm staying the course with it for now. But because of the constant backtracking of ideas I do as a solo dev, I never make solid ETAs for content updates because I can't promise a timely delivery.

Hello, i was wondering, is there an estimated time when the revamp will drop?

1) The mission files are still present, but they're being revamped - if you try to go to it, you'll get an unfinished version of it (or maybe the original version, the Steam PAK hasn't been updated in a while since I started the big updated)

2) I'm re-tooling how a lot of things are crafted, eventually phasing out or repurposing the Vanta Replicator. Most of the furniture and whatnot should be the regular furniture crafting table, and the armors are being moved to the standard crafting anvil/replicator (Accelerator, Manipulator, and Separator variants are ready for it).

Also I found the Vanta weapon maker but is there one for furniture + mission item or is that not added yet?

But the mission itself is accessible?

Right now, it's only the previous Nightar one, though the files for it still exist. I'm currently in the process of revamping that entire mission to expand more into the Nightar/Vanta lore and creating a whole new story line that stems from it, it's just that RL keeps me pre-occupied (hard to have nice things if you don't have a steady income, y'know.)

Redacting my previous comment as I figured out what mod it actually was (Project Redemption) but anyway: Can I access the Nightar castle mission with this mod or is that only in the Nightar one?

@Emerald - I do plan to have towns/villages in the coming updates, just having difficulty locking down layouts and styles.

Does your mod have towns/villages?

Thank you

@BennyNinjaPandaSquad - Should be 'darkfragmentore'

Can someone please tell me what the item ID for dark fragments are?

Still a great mod

Hope things go well over there, Xero. ^.^'

@lonealchemst - I'm sorry for the delayed response, but I'm currently overhauling the mod again and reworking a lot of things, including recipes. The Workshop version greatly differs from what I currently have as a work-in-progress, so I can't remember off-hand how it was here. Once I've gotten the newest version finalized, I'll post a link to a full changelog which will detail a lot of the newer crafting methods.

How do I obtain Pristine Dark Crystals?

@Ruin - I'm debating on keeping grimoires in until I can find an actual use/need for them outside of generic weapons that can just be crafted. The original idea was to have them done at the Vanta Replicator, which may still be a possibility in the future (albeit with the traditional replicators after yet another recipe/variant armor restructuring), but for now they're going to be shelved upon the next update.

How do you make a Grimoire thats not weathered?

anyway, can't wait :)

oh, sorry for the impatience

Yes, real life has a habit of catching me unawares, so I apologize for lack of responses/updates. I'm still in the process of retooling how a lot of things are done. Dark Essence was supposed to be acquired either through the Vanta Replicator or the Atomic Furnace (I've made months worth of changes on and off behind the scenes, so I don't quite remember where everything once was).

its been 10 months with no actual response wow

mmm... Seems I'm not the only one with this problem. :o

How do i get dark essence?

@Jeatstream Sam I haven't modified the main treasure pools to do that, so I don't think it's this mod.

Does this mod increase your chances of finding rare items or something? I've found 3 tier 4 weapons on temperate planets and something ain't right

@Ryn - You're supposed to be able to get it by tossing dark fragments into the refinery; I think it may actually go through the Vanta Replicator as far as this version is concerned, but I'm currently in the process of completely revamping how certain materials are acquired. Just... the update is going to be hella delayed because I'm now attending school for software engineering, so I'm having to juggle several different priorities.

hello, i was wondering where i can find dark essence? I've
been looking everywhere for it but im coming up short

@AschBlade - It's still a work in progress. Even with the continuous job shifting and me starting school at the start of the new year, I will continue development!

So happy to see this mod, can't wait to see your progress, but I'm having issues getting the intro to even load. hope it get's fixed

:D:steamhappy:

@Space Knight - I'm working on an alternate method to have a working stealth module that doesn't modify the main NPC behavior script (because I know other mods exist that override that one) and it still work as intended, it's just taking me a lot longer to actually come up with it than I want it to.

@Space Knight - My apologies, I don't check my Steam very often, so I apologize if I glanced over your comment. Not sure what the issue might be, though. The mod assumes you play vanilla, so certain scripts (particularly the main script for NPC behavior) is modified by having a duplicate script of the same name in the same location of the base assets. If there's another mod that has the same replacement Lua script, it will likely override changes made by another mod, since there's no way to patch a Lua script the same way we would patch a JSON asset, and I can't patch in an extra script into the base NPC configuration without breaking all NPCs, and the stealth module relies on its own Lua file for NPC behavior.

@57uck - The intro mission at large is being revamped, so once I get it completed, it won't be an issue, since the keypad will be removed from it entirely. It will still exist and used elsewhere in the mod, it just won't be in the intro mission anymore.

@Sky Blue Sky - I've moved essences and dark fragments to their own crafting table, so yes, it will be introduced in the next update!

So yeah, the second password needs to be fixed

@spicebot the password is wrong, the third symbol (the one who looks like this .R) is not right. Try another symbol and it will work, trust me

halp i cnat get past the 2nd 4digit code

So, I found that the Vanta do not have the Dark Essence recipe, nor can Dark Fragments be changed to Dark Essence at a refinery. Will we be seeing a fix?

Also, would you get in touch with me in private? There's something I'd like to discuss about permissions.

No worries, thank you for the reply. Looking forward to the new update.

@Apex Predator - I'm not wholly against it, no - bear in mind though that an update is currently in the works (I know I've said it before, but I'm quite literally the only person that works on this actively), so a lot of things might change that may end up breaking any integration you have planned.

Ori - It is, but it's done in a way that won't interfere with any other instances of it, thus you'd have two separate instances that both work so you'd just have a duplicate bit for it if another mod has it integrated.

Apologies for the late responses!

Hi,

I would like to use content from your mod for a private mod in a server with me and my friends. I will be using the Vanta race for an NPC and I won't rip out any assets, but will add your mod as a requirement. Will that be okay with you?

does this give you high fidelity codex tab on the quickbar? never had it before and now its here

so the personal cloaking device doesn't grant the camouflage so it doesn't actually work like a cloaking device should,\

how do you get a pristine dark crystal?

@Thanatiflora Too bad, than I will need to remove this from my mod pack :(

@A-Vladimir This mod does not work with FU at all and will never work with it

This mod breaks the starting main quest when used with FU.

Did that as well.. No dice. -w-'

My apologies; it's been a while since I had actually restructured recipes; dark essence can be obtained by tossing dark fragments into a refinery
