Enable Infantry

This is pretty much enabling dark souls swamp areas in the game. Non stop chip damage. It's a constant DOT that gets annoying, and the novelty of the gif infantry wears off quick.

I know what you did to those women in 1993.

@Farang Gamer it's only a war crime if you lose.

"It is a proof of concept for something that was originally planned but removed likely due to ESRB concerns." Sounds like a game I know:

Fun mod, but is shooting an infantry soldier with 4 medium lasers simultaneously a war crime? Kind of feels like it! haha

Is there a setting or mod that tweaks the pilot AI to actually fight infantry?
Halogod35 5 May, 2024 @ 8:59pm 
It still works with DLC6.
Sanghelli Lord 27 Mar, 2024 @ 9:31am 
i might test this with the new dlc later

Infantry is so cool! They scratch armor a little from big guns. I like it.
Watch your step because you also has friendly infantry in some missions with friendly forces.

Does this mod still work with the latest DLC release?

This mod is an official mod for a cut feature of the base game to have infantry forces with SRM and other hand weapons that can slightly threaten mechs. Its unfinished and the AI does not target them and friendly infantry do not engage enemies.

It is a proof of concept for something that was originally planned but removed likely due to ESRB concerns and while it makes machineguns and flamers more useful its not a finished system.

While other mods might make more use of this it is not in a really usable state right now. It would be very cool to see battlearmor and elementals. This is however not what we are getting.

It's nice to have infantry back, but it's just not the same. Infantry is supposed to explode into a shower of limbs and blood at the slightest provocation!
Rewdrooster1 8 Apr, 2023 @ 3:36pm 
whats the point of this mod?

If you ever wanted to use this mod but wished the Infantry had better AI, didn't damage your Mechs or blended in with the game better then you should give these mods a look.

Does this mod still work after DLC4?
Rodrigo 18 Feb, 2023 @ 6:44am 
Doubt PGI (authors) will improve this any further, but at least it will still work with any version..
󠀡󠀡 18 Feb, 2023 @ 6:42am 
not sure if needs updating to latest version of the game, mod still works perhaps its better to have it updated to match latest version @ mod author?:happystar2022:

"Useless mod that only adds annoyance."

That's infantry in Battletech in a nutshell.

This too.

Once TTrulez mod is fixed I think it will make the a.i focus also on infantry
Wimpypumpkin 1 Feb, 2023 @ 5:58pm 
Yeah someone mentioned. Only the enemy AI infantry actual fight and run around. Friendlies dont do anything.
󠀡 14 Jan, 2023 @ 6:58am 
It seems that infantry only attacks the player and AI teammates ignore infantry as well. Useless mod that only adds annoyance.
Myng 12 Jan, 2023 @ 10:52am 
fkin ants..., i love this mod!!!!
BigTimeGamer 3 Jan, 2023 @ 8:54pm 
cool cuz in the main menu you see infintry and in other battletch games its a warzone with tanks and airplanes and stuff very neat

also maby you could mess with the game and decrese tanks and turret spawns to give infinty rpg's or anti matirial rifiles just so they are a more noticable threat

spell = no
Enforcer 24 Nov, 2022 @ 9:30am 
My lancemates aren't shooting infantry....
360NoBrain 29 Oct, 2022 @ 3:35pm 
love this, the little guys are lazy, they run away, run to. dont do any damage but legit funny to see a random pot shot over your shoulder, only to look back and see a base goblin acting chill.
The Astonished Crow 7 Oct, 2022 @ 3:59pm 
For a while it wasn't working properly. Infantry started spawning again only after I moved this mod to the very last spot of my mod list using the mod manager. Hope this helps someone.
Couch Fornicator 26 Aug, 2022 @ 2:23am 
Anyone not seeing Infantry appear anymore?
Metrix 16 Aug, 2022 @ 7:07pm 
They are very small and have red dots above them. Look for moving tiny black and red people. also they shot you and do little damage if you don't kill them. I suggest a laser or machine gun to clean them up. Remember you are in a giant mech. They are people on the ground. they look like mini shadow people.
Blaster 5 Aug, 2022 @ 3:04pm 
never seen any infantry in my game with this mod.
SSS-class Warlock 26 Jul, 2022 @ 9:26am 
Played this mod a fair bit, but the AI (lancemates) still ignore them
Bonedog 21 Jul, 2022 @ 3:07pm 
recently updated but no change notes...
Not re-enabling this till someone can confirm my lancemates can target and shoot them.
Mage 10 Jul, 2022 @ 7:17pm 
im not seeing them. are they only at certain areas or am i doing something wrong?
tank16365 5 Jul, 2022 @ 8:27am 
One of these little infantry guys took the last shot and blew off my Annihilators left arm on the way back to the LZ. You know he's a legend now.
Robot Hole 4 Jul, 2022 @ 4:01pm 
@KevinStorm same thing is happening to me any fix?
Lesser of two weevils 3 Jul, 2022 @ 6:30am 
Hilarious mod to enhance the mech-stomping goodness. Whether the infantry are extremely well disciplined, fanatical or on combat stimms (or any of the aforementioned) they get top marks for standing up to a mech, even if they get squished. I do not care, they are only Kuritans.
KevinStorm 25 Jun, 2022 @ 7:23pm 
I keep getting the error "could not find SuperStruct ReceiveSetGenericTeamID to create ReceiveSetGenericTeamID"

thanx for the update , essential mod for mw5.:bigups:

Thanks for updating PGI.

Please update for version 1.1.323 Can't enable it with DLC3 :lunar2019piginablanket:

I accidentally walked into a building and it was raining bodies lolz
Kyuirah 10 May, 2022 @ 5:22pm 
Yes the infantry actually do damage.It's very tiny damage (maybe even less than 1) but if there's enough of them and you stand still they can start picking you apart. I've had my previously severely damaged arm get finished off by infantry once because they hit my ammo and caused an explosion.
so.many.variables 23 Apr, 2022 @ 8:38am 
I havent actually seen any infantry anywhere. Is there something I need to do to make it work?
Toki 21 Mar, 2022 @ 3:09am 
@Mynx They do some damage, but it's a small amount.
Kohl 19 Mar, 2022 @ 6:42pm 
Hi. Since the mod is not 'polished' enough for Piranha official release, will it actually slow the whole game down due to not optimized program code?
Mynx 4 Feb, 2022 @ 11:20pm 
do they actually do damage or is this just something to fill out the world with more life? I see them shooting and when they shoot me i see sparks and the body parts flashing indicating they are being hit but i can't tell at all if they're actually doing damage.
Terra Nova 28 Dec, 2021 @ 5:06am

Fercyful 27 Dec, 2021 @ 3:05pm

Martian Patriot 26 Dec, 2021 @ 12:51am 
Does this work in Instant Action?
