I've found them as generic recruits before, but every now and then my spawns reset on a new campaign. I can't find one of the Z9s anywhere and they're my favorite skeleton. Would you consider adding a guaranteed recruit somewhere?

I was hoping to use this guy for my new playthrough, but was hoping to nerf him just a bit, but I'm not very familiar with FCS. Any way you could point me towards a guide or something?

I'm not sure if this is where this guy always spawns, but in case anyone is still looking for him, I found him at a waystation in the grey desert. It was a complete accident that I stumbled upon it. I doubt I ever would have found this guy if it weren't for the fact that I coincidentally happened to travel right by this area.

can anyone point me to where this guy at ?

Where can I find one to recruit? Where is this ancient place?

I notice others have asked, but no answers. Can someone please answer?

thanks for Your mod! loved it!+ But upsets one moment, not works with mod Skeleton armor slots unlocked. Please make compatibility. And it's going to be great.

@Victor, Hello, I'm one of the lead developers for an overhaul mod called Project Genesis. May we have permission to incorporate your race into our community overhaul? We'd also like to ask if you'd be interested in joining our team. More info can be found on my profile. Cheers to your mod btw :cactusrum:

By modding it in the FCS. @scozee

I'm a tad perplexed by the fact that this particular skeleton model doesn't seem compatible with the Skeleton Frame Cover mod or with any mod that unlocks shirt, head, and feet slots. Any ideas on how to get those mods working with this one?

Dude! My guy, could you please DM me? I have been thinking about modding Kenshi--specifically modeling characters and clothes/armor--though I do not know where to look or do. Anyhow, freaken awesome mode and model work!:steamhappy:

Fantastic! Love the idea of being able to have another skeleton model :-D Are you able to tell us the stats of the skeleton please? Is it the same as other skeletons? This is the stats of regular skeleton according to the wiki. Is yours the same, just different visually?

Max Speed: 25 mph
Min Speed: 16 mph
Hunger rate: 0
Vision Range: 1.25
Combat move speed multi: 0.9
Blood (Oil): 100
Bleed rate: 0.1

Looks like you strapped a roomba to a skeleton
Ultra_Mucchi 30 Jun, 2019 @ 8:34am 
Thank you for the wonderful skeleton

Overall, fantastic mod. The model looks great and fits right into the world. It's perfectly fits the kenshi style and I never felt like I was sticking out like a sore thumb. Very glad that the skin slider works on the head. Textures could use work but they're perfectly passable. Stat-wise, it is a bit OP as you mentioned and could possibly need more negatives. Keep the 250 HP head though, as it feels like a perfect bit of lore as the missing link between Skeletons and Hiver Drones. 10/10, looking foward to see if you do any more.

old places ? like were ive been to the black desert the flats all empire and swamp
Bilge-Soup Head 28 Jun, 2019 @ 4:05am 
Hello! Could you possibly make this mod compatiable with the https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1377707887 (Skeleton Armor slots unlocked) please? Loving the more Martial Arts centered playstyle, I've wanted a Skelly single army martial artist for a long while now, so this is great!
Redd Herring 28 Jun, 2019 @ 1:38am 
Very lovely, thank you. If you intend on doing any more of these in the future, I will very much be looking forward to them. The one thing that disappoints me about Skeletons is the lack of variety. Especially when we have such a wonderful array of beautiful concept art heads that haven't been utilized.

If you end up doing more, I'd love to see some more of the Soldier-esque head concepts from this concept art [scontent-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn.net].
Romulus017 27 Jun, 2019 @ 11:36pm 
Only thing i can complain about it they cant wear the skele frame armor mod :( BUT this one of the best mods! Everytime i have seen that concept art i have wanted that in game. Thank you so much! :P
DeadlyJoey 27 Jun, 2019 @ 9:06pm 
Please make the other Skeleton from the Concept art that has the four cylinders coming out of his head (center one in concept picture with three skeletons in it)
Tarsis 27 Jun, 2019 @ 5:37am

Leafen 27 Jun, 2019 @ 12:50am 
Would be rad to see the other skeleton concept art in the game. Was disappointed when I found out there was only just the one. Awesome mod!
Permafrost 26 Jun, 2019 @ 10:00pm 
Skeletons are best armor smiths and weapon smiths, can you make skeleton race for crossbowsmiths?
jabberwok 26 Jun, 2019 @ 9:00pm 
Don't get me wrong, this is awesome. But when I look at the model, his head looks like a waffle iron.
Fried Noodles 26 Jun, 2019 @ 8:40pm 
I like it. Doesn't stand out too much. Looks like it fits right into Kenshi.

Though, honestly, I think the texture work on the new head might be a bit nicer than the texturing on the rest of the skeleton body. Maybe I need to download the high-res texture pack!

Can't really tell unless you zoom in really close to a naked Z9.
Daemonic Spoder 26 Jun, 2019 @ 7:25pm 
Any plans for doing more concept skeletons?
Andrini 26 Jun, 2019 @ 7:04pm 
One of my favorite mods right now. Keep up the good work!
[PSS] TheKinari9 26 Jun, 2019 @ 6:39pm 
Nice work if you will make rest of them from concept art will be great
qinlongfei 26 Jun, 2019 @ 5:23pm 
A quick and light weight scout unit really does fit the new head module which looks almost like a flying saucer. Not a huge Skeleton player myself, although I'd definitely give this mod a try if I ever want to be a robot since I like fast running characters to go with my roamer play style.
Nowell  [author] 26 Jun, 2019 @ 3:06pm 
@Azusas Thank you!
@THE CAKE Groovy indeed!
@PL I imagine them as lightweight scout skeletons, yeah. Possibly used for reconaissance and designed to be more nimble than the others. The concept art looked to me like a bounty hunter or just a generally less bulky skeleton than the ones we have.
Cinto PL 26 Jun, 2019 @ 1:52pm 
So what are they supposed to be lorewise in your opinion?
The stats imply they were a some sort of scout unit version of the Skeletons during their war.
MoneyGrip 26 Jun, 2019 @ 1:48pm 
Groovy.
Azusas 26 Jun, 2019 @ 12:16pm 
Outstanding work! I'm glad to see some new skeleton related mods! The Skeleton Cult and I look forward to seeing some more of your mods in the future! I am going to field test the new Z9 units as soon as i am able!
Nowell  [author] 26 Jun, 2019 @ 11:23am 
@Rohzdear Thamk you! :)
I have to improve my modeling skills before I attempt some of the more complex designs, but I am considering doing more from the concept art.
Rohzdear 26 Jun, 2019 @ 10:10am 
This is great! I always thought there could've been far more Skeleton types with different heads and body types.

Are you planning to recreate the other Skeletons from concept art?
Duncun 26 Jun, 2019 @ 9:57am 
ОХ, чувак не останавливайся! Добавь больше деталей на голову!
ADS6465 25 Jun, 2019 @ 7:58pm 
really cool nice job!

@RolandLawson Thank you! :)
