@IronMeatCurtain It will show a conflict, but I ran both and never had an issue before. Though I have not run YAML in awhile now, I doubt it has changed.

Does this mod conflict with YAML at all?

Sez there are mods that do that already. Here is one. Hope it helps.

Could you please consider making a standalone version of this mod that just tweaks the chances to salvage by head-shots, legs and coring please? I don't want more profit or cheaper upgrades and repairs, just lore accurate salvage chances. It's stupid that in the base game, legging is the worst way to try to salvage a mech when in the lore it's the best way. IMO, coring should be what leaves you with only a 5% chance of salvaging.

Well, they could have updated some game files, that changed things. Honestly, I have not played Mercs in quite awhile now. And usually the mod only breaks when they add a new DLC.
Glad my mod has helped you, both in game, and as a modder.

I think outdated source files are where the problem is, I basically recreated the same mod and the text overwritten problem is gone.

BTW, this mod has been a great help both in game and in my learning process of modification of MW5, thx!

@awlsondark, I've compared the list of files in this mod to the latest in mod editor. There're items not included in this mod and items listed no longer exist in game files. Is it possible that you've been using files from early version of the game to make the mod? Maybe that could be the cause of text overwritten.

Sorry to bother you if I'm wrong, I'm fairly new to modifications of this game.

@ETA3minutes I can't imagine why, as I never touch any file names, only some stats within the files. Wouldn't know where to start to correct that.

@awlsondark, I believe what @ledehe meant was that, this mod is changing some of the localized text back to English when you are playing non-English version of the game, mainly equipment names and descriptions as far as I can tell.

Is this tested with YAML's own salvage chance modifiers? I'm assuming it should be fine with YAML set to a higher LO, but I want the refit changes this makes. You cannot make me believe replacing 2 M Laser hardpoints takes 4 days. /wankingmotion

@ledehe I have no idea what you are talking about or asking.

Change the translated language back to English. Please fix it by touching ammo and heatsink

This is one of the best mods awesome thank you!!!

@awlsondark Thank you! :)

@Emiliorth It will not affect pre-generated Campaign missions. So, the missions of the career campaign, or the side campaign missions that award the mechs/weapons. It only works on the random generated missions (and may require respawning the missions if you added the mod after they were generated).

Hi, I've completed first mission and I didn't put any points to salvage (I think). Should I get 3 or 5 points of salvage shares after mission complete, because I had 3 of them?

Sorry, tinkered with my mods since the new update, and it turns out it was another mod that caused the crash, I can confirm that your mod and RescaleMechs seem to work together in spite of the conflict indicator in the mods window. I guess I'm not able to benefit from the modified salvage rates, but the repair times are a huge convenience!

@Omnes Interficere Sorry for the delay, just finally got a chance to look through my mod files (with the new expansion and all). I mod that file for salvage rates of mechs. I am not sure what that mod is accessing the file for.

For all others, the mod should be good to go for the new expansion.

hi, i really love this mod , it's a massive time saver. is it possible to make this compatible with TTRulez_RescaleMechs? I get a fatal crash with the DerivedMech.uasset conflict

came to complain about not getting 5 shares per point in a campaign mission

Read point #2

Realized its hard coded

GG Mod maker for being clear in description

is this YAML compatible?

Ohhh right, that could be it.

I eliminated drop costs from my mod, due to conflicts with their new difficulty slider. Possibly jump jets are included in the repair/refit costs, but I don't recall for sure.

Hey there,

I haven't played the game in two weeks or so, and now the Jump costs are back to 50K a pop.
Also, getting conflicts with TTRulez for Jump Jets I/II/III/IV/V.

I don't see which part of our mod affects Jump Jets o.O

I was editing the file itself that set the cost and durations of jumps. You would think the slider would just use a multiplier on what it finds in that file, that is how I would code it. I didn't find where the difficulty slider was set. But if they did a straight cost adjustment (+x or -x to it), I could see how that would cause an overflow error. Whatever, removing that file from my mod fixed that, and the crazy costs for repairs that were suddenly happening. Spaghetti code at its finest.

@Awlsondark
Maybe the code it was attached to was connected to something the difficulty slider now adjusted as well like Easy might have decreased costs for jumps while Hard might have increased costs for jumps.

I am not sure why their difficulty slider has broken jump cost part of the mod, there is no logical reason for it that I can find. So I have removed that part of the mod, since it no longer worked anyways.

Hi, thanks for the mod, it's made my gaming experience a lot better. There is a conflict between your mod and Objective Jump, it changes the travel cost back to the default 50,000 and it also seems to change the repair time and cost to the default values. Even if I set the price of the jump to 10,000 via mod option it doesn't change it. I chose Objective Jump because it wastes a lot of my time when I'm traveling to mission locations, but destroys your mod as a result
Is there any way to resolve this conflict issue?

As near as I can figure, the new difficulty slider is affecting the jump cost part of the mod. I have yet to find a solution to that.

hello i read the comments to see if anyone else reported Jumps being base prices, i am ingame and have the mod active all jumps are still 50k, could be something to do with the new DLC eating the Scripting for the jump price since it adds a new campaign

does the increased salvage chance work on story missions?

So, to give a possible reason for why KKrusher's repair costs aren't working is because PGI added a difficulty option that allows you to customize how you want your game to be and one of the options you can now customize is how much the repair bills can be, or if you really want to make the repair bills literally be a fat 0.

Repair costs are working fine for me, but jump costs certainly were higher in game. Checked my file, and it still has the cheaper price. Not sure what is going on there. Repackaged the mod, we'll see if that helps.

Jump costs are not working. Repair costs as well.

could we get a version of this that has either a configuration file or mod options support?

I updated the mod the day after the dlc came out. But you need to refresh the missions if they were spawned without the mod. And the mod does not affect campaign missions.

not working in the latest DLC for me, salvage is back to abyssmal, sad

Sadly incompatabile with "Yet Another Mechlab"
Moved the load order in front and after it but it seams that YAML just overrides it which is really sad because I don't want hanger queens.

Yet Another Mechlab and Yet Another Weapon seem to conflict with this mod. Think that will mess with my game too much? Thanks!

Okay, removed the pilot injury adjustment of my mod, so it should no longer conflict with other pilot mods.
@Bomjus That should be quick and easy, if I can find the file I changed that stuff in. Keep an eye out for it.

could you be convinced to make an offshoot of this mod that is just the first change? but keeps the vanilla 40% chance for the core destruction?

so headshots 99%, legs 90%, core 40%?

my friends and i are okay with the vanilla balance regarding salvage shares, travel costs etc. so we'd love have better salvage chances for legging mechs like your mod provides, without the other changes. if that's not possible do you have any youtube tutorials on how to mod MW5? do you just edit a PAK file?

@Cursed Hawkins My mod changes each entry for weapons to reduce the repair/refit costs. So any mod changing those same files (like rebalanced does) would come into conflict.

Hey Dark, could you see what's causing these? Because for some reason this mod is conflicting with ChuToy's "Rebalanced and Expanded" weapon mods, like every single one of them and unless this mod does something else besides reducing the time needed to refit them, it shouldn't be conflicting this badly.

okay, so it appears the game has a save state for missions upon entering a system; not sure about it. i left this one on and it went from incorrect salvage upon restarting with the mod to putting the correct values on things after jumping far away and to a new area. so, if you notice it's not updating, it appears to be an error with cached missions and not the mod.

At the mod option，it prompts me that this MOD conflicts with the TTRulez_AIMod2

I wonder what is conflicting. I haven't used that mod, so I am not sure. It might be the pilot injury time, maybe. I could remove that, I am not sure it is working as intended anyways, as I had a pilot get injured last night for a crazy long duration anyways.

This conflicts with (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2607562264) TTRulez_AIMod2 for some reason any fix?

Awesome mod, cheers =)

the salvage share part does not seem to be working right now.
