@Torkkar: Bandolier of Anything has you covered (includes cape/vest).

I was just looking to have a mod to allow me to wear capes with Marine Armor & allow reasonable doubling up of some mod items like a Ranged shield belt & Ammo bag or Marine Armor + shoulder plates + cape as I use RPG style inventory bur stuff in clearly seperated slots share the same slot or layer if that makes any sense & my Royals are a Royal pain in the arse without their capes even in prestige armors for some reason.

still tinkering, but having spent a bit more time looking through the changes (since ive done alot messing with apparel rendering in other mods), im not sure if its Really nessecary anymore....its hard to say, i dont really get How the rendering controls position/layer in 1.5

guess its time for a ground up remake of the mod for 1.5 sadly cause I LOVE this mod & its sucks when devs do crap that really mucks with the good mods

o7 Sorry to hear that it seems like it is not updatable. Thank you for all your hard work and know that it was appreciated.

im afraid a 1.5 version of this mod is looking Extremely unlikely, just no way to do it with the changes to pawnrendering in 1.5

What an impressive mod. Shame about the 1.5 unlikely for a long time, but I might pick this up for a 1.4 playthrough. Was always annoyed I had to choose between very expensive armor or low protection clothing for royal pawns.

@Kizzycocoa
unlikely for a long time, the pawn rendering systems been totally overhauled in 1.5, so a total rewrite is required, if its even possible to do, it may be beyond me

Will you be updating this for 1.5?

This mod worked perfectly fine for quite a long time, until I added more mods into the mix, now I am getting frequent crashes with the logs giving errors regarding to this mod. I'm not entirely sure which mod could be the culprit, but the one I suspect would be Dubs Apparel Tweaks, as that is one of the mods I added and the crashing started to occur. I cannot confirm this though.

Also seem to be crashing with this showing as the last error in the player log although I have a very large mod-list as well so almost definitely is a conflict and I think it might be something to do with a hats with hair mod I have but need to test more.

Just a heads-up guys, on my 300+ modded playthrough, I was getting very frequent and random crashes until I uninstalled this mod. I'm guessing it's incompatible with something else other than CE, which I do not use.

Hey, actually found a fix.
@Jabba
In RIMMSqol you have to check the "Shell Rendered As Clothing" on apparel that you want to be rendered under a cape / ShellEquipment layer
I imagin you'd have to do it for every Shell type apparel, which is pretty tedious

Same thing here, rendering over shell for some reason doesn't work. I'll try making a more detailed bug report soon

I tried to use RIMMSQL to change the capes' layer to ShellEquipment, but the cape still renders below the outer layer..

I did a quick test and set a random helmet to be on the OverheadEquipment and it did render above the Overhead layer, but I haven't got a clue why the shell one isn't working.. Any suggestions?

@Balthazad
i have a feeling what your seeing is them wearing a vanilla duster, and an Overshell duster, that can be worn on top of armour etc, as im unable to make them equip two of either, but a pawn can equip one of each

@Balthazad
re the multiple dusters, thats weird, will check it out
as for the translations, its not that its Not working, its that theres no translations for that added apparel layer def, because sadly i only speak english- and poorly at that.
it should be Totally safe to add or remove midgame

this is bugging.
it ignores translations, so i have colonists wearing multiple dusters at the same time, some layered "außen" and some layered "outer slot".
ffs i hope this is safely removable midgame.....................

Hell yes, loading up a new pack with this in it right now. Thanks!

@hoteldoor538
never used rimpy, not a clue how it works, but no lol

is it supposed to still shows as 1.5 in rimpy?

Hell yeah dude! Thank you for your service to this community for the ocd people like me that can't stand to see flak jackets floating in front of parkas or aprons infront of pawns faces. 5/5

oh hell yeah! appreciate your hard work!

id forgotten about this again, but i did actually manage to get it Mostly working in 1.4, ive pushed an update

well hell, that's a shame, this mod is pretty much essential in large modpacks

Yeah,, its pretty much killed thisa mod, i cant figure out how to target the ewquisite compiler generated methods

i keep coming to check in on this mod but 1.4 seemed to screw with a ton of stuff around pawn outfits and such

@Koterism
ive been attempting to, but hit an impasse, i cant figure out how to target some of the new compiler generated methods in 1.4 that deal with rendering the pawns heads, the way i had been using in 1.3 seems unable to detect the new methods, ive been unable to ascertain why

Will you update for 1.4?

Thank you

@kspksp666
its the commented out example defs in this mod

What mod/setting is used preview, that allows you to have capes and stuff along with recon armor?

Ty for your time and effort! Hope it all goes well

@Fuk-Go-Back
yeah....its not a fun method to mess with, Very heavily patched by a multitude of mods, and trying to do so in a way that doesnt break other mods is awkward to say the least....but Hopefully this time the changes are lesser than the 1.3 update....

@Ogliss

Lol. That, "this time", hits

awesome, take your time

when i have time to figure out what they did to pawn rendering This time lol

1.4 wen

@ogliss my apologies for my stupidity i was too excited lol is there a mod that does add apparel layers?

@TankPrime
while it Does add extra layers, it doesnt add them to apparel, as noted in the description, this is a modders resource

does this add extra layers? i tried to put recon armor on my pawns and they took off the flak vest how did you put recon armor with a flak vest?

yeah erdelf is one Seriously smart cookie!

...I am very excited about that, and erdelf is (also) amazing, so I can't wait for the results :)

Should now have got it working pretty much perfectly in vanilla, however HAR still breaks the headgear, been in touch with erdelf about it and hopefully it can be resolved

Oh gods. Well, thanks for the update, and hope life give you two a break now.

@Nianor Skywolf
yeah, Staph infections are No joke!

Oh shit, glad to hear they're getting better, but damn, that's scary.

@Distorti0N
not a bother, had ALot of RL shit to deal with over the past 6 months or so, partner was in hospital over xmas, for 2 months, nearly died, on the mend now thankfully, but im a little behind/outta the loop in the modding scene

@Ogliss Thankfully in my case, the headgear is less of an issue. But much appreciated mate, going out of your way like that, so quickly!
