ah yes i remember how after i killd all the contracted targets they said i could keep killing for a bonouse, turn out the bonouse was jack and a loadof shit
maby they should just add a warzone bonouse slider into the base game cuz that contact is pretty mutch only valuble if ur tracking down salvage but even than the 60s spawntimer makes it a wast of time
"all i see is red so get ready for the end"

@JackMama MW5 Mod Organizer on nexus, its a must have.

Can confirm the mod works with the most recent update

Nevermind, only seemed to be bugged for one Warzone, other Warzones I tried worked fine. Weird.
Toyota AE86 22 Apr, 2024 @ 8:39pm 
Is anyone getting an issue where Warzones will just stop spawning enemies past the initial 2?
BCMortis 31 Mar, 2024 @ 5:23pm 
Anyone else having Warzones showing up on a system's intel, but not being available when you get there and view contracts despite still being listed in the intel?

Had to drop Coyote's mod, cause there seems to be no way to change load order when some mods come from the Nexus and some come from the Steam Workshop. Just glad to have the extra payouts from this mod. Thank you.

Thanks for the update, stopped crashing on me.

@JackMama - I'm not sure what you ended up doing.

I would recommend you go to the MW5 Discord to ask for help. There are a lot of experienced people there that can help you, and it's better equipped to handle something than this comment section. (The Steam Discussions page for MW5 may also be a good option.)

(So you're aware, your Steam Mods folder location should look something like this: "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\784080". With that being the case, you should see all of the mods you've downloaded on Steam appear there. (They are all denoted as numbered folders.))
JackMama 26 Mar, 2024 @ 11:06am 
I used the drop down to select the drive I have steam on and navigated to the Mods folder in Mechwarrior 5, then clicked the button #1 Select MW5 Mods folder. That brought up the next option to place the check to view mod's. But after doing that, only Application Files, Coyotesmission, Increasedloadouts, MechDelivery and ModOptions shows up. I have all the YAML mods as welll as Increased Warzone Rewards installed, but none of those show up.
ChuToy_89  [author] 25 Mar, 2024 @ 5:08pm 
@JackMama - Yeah. Unfortunately, the amount of instructions is pretty inadequate for this LOM.

To get Steam files to show up, you have to define in the LOM that you have a Steam version of the game installed. To do so, go to (in the menu bar) File > Set Vendor. Once there, you will see four options. Select "Steam". This should automatically locate the default installation directory for your mod files for MW5. (If you moved them, this may be different. I'm no expert and have not experimented with this, so I can't say for certain.)

Try the above solution. If that doesn't work, I'll try to help again.
JackMama 25 Mar, 2024 @ 2:17pm 
Can't find a way to change the load order since coyote's I downloaded from the nexus, but I installed Increased Warzone Rewards from the steam workshop. I tried the LOM you talked about, but it's not very intuitive to me and I didn't see any instructions. It only showed me the couple mods I got from the nexus and none from the steam workshop. Coyote's mod came up in the LOM, but not Increased Warzone Rewards.

Hahahaha! A pleasure to provide. ^-^

@Dr.Destro229 - :DDDDD

Yes, it's finally here!!
Dr.Destro229 22 Mar, 2024 @ 9:56pm 
WOOOO
necro55 17 Mar, 2024 @ 11:15pm 
@Chutoy i do have a screen cap of the full error if you need it. For what it's worth it would work on a mission\missions, although the spawn rate seemed very low compared to before the patch, but it would crash when I traveled.
Skrrrrrt Cobain 16 Mar, 2024 @ 10:26pm 
Yeah, also crashing mine as well.
Captain Mark S 15 Mar, 2024 @ 8:15pm 
If it helps, I was getting a fatal error any time I selected a warzone contract in instant action, as well as attempting to star any mission in instant action while the mod was installed.
SilentAardvark 15 Mar, 2024 @ 5:13pm 
@ChuToy_89
Awesome that you've not abandoned it.
Nice mod that addresses the tedium of warzone waves.
Just to add: When jumping to a system that has warzones, fails with "unexpected token 30" or some such followed by a long trace. Noticed that it's essentially the same for other mods that fail. Some object changed I guess.

@ChuToy_89
Can confirm it crashes when moving to a Warzone contract of any kind. It will give the dropship animation and the "Low Level Error" Survival CENGEN. It looks like there is two main conflicts. Unfortunately I couldn't screenshot it before the game crashes.
ChuToy_89  [author] 15 Mar, 2024 @ 12:27am 
@The Decoy - No, that's okay! What you said was perfect. :) All I needed to know was that it didn't work - that's enough to go on for this mod.

Thank you for including the extra detail, however. Your diligence and attention-to-detail is wonderful and appreciated. :)
The Decoy 14 Mar, 2024 @ 11:45pm 
Sorry, I should have been more explicit in my first post.
The Decoy 14 Mar, 2024 @ 11:43pm 
It appears to happen when changing systems and the new one has a battlefield/warzone contract available. It was pretty consistent on my end. I'd turn off the mod, everything cool. Mod back on, crash when heading to new system.
ChuToy_89  [author] 14 Mar, 2024 @ 10:04pm 
@The Decoy - NO...

I have done some play-testing already, but haven't encountered this issue. I plan to do some more play-testing (for RBEW) right now, but I will include this mod as part of it, since you mentioned a supposed issue.

Thanks for the report (sadly).
The Decoy 14 Mar, 2024 @ 8:21pm 
Currently crashes with the new version
Brave Sir Robin 18 Feb, 2024 @ 4:17pm 
This one is nice. Considering Ryana talks for nearly a minute raving about the 'amazing bonuses' you can get, the vanilla pay is a joke.
ChuToy_89  [author] 5 Jan, 2024 @ 3:10am 
@TROCH22 - Yep! Does a great job.

Thanks for the compliment in your previous comment, by the way. :)
TROCH22 5 Jan, 2024 @ 1:01am 
Yes. But after that post I've found "Stacked Crates - Loot Crate Overhaul" on nexus mods that does exactly that and more.
ChuToy_89  [author] 5 Jan, 2024 @ 12:55am 
@TROCH22 - What do you mean? For the salvage you find on the battlefield? (The ones with the big light pillars that you have to manually pick up.)
TROCH22 4 Jan, 2024 @ 5:41pm 
Love this mod, is it possible to make increase hidden object rewards?
RuffyRoxX 10 Oct, 2023 @ 3:01pm 
i just stumbled across coyotes mission page on nexus after some time. i saw that he has written that this mod is absolut not working with his mod. i have used both mods having this one above CMP and i still cant see any problems. now i left a question on his forum page maybe he will answer what exactly is bound to happen. but as i say i have used this mod since it was released and have not have any kind of trouble running it with CMP as long as IWC is above CMP.
Foxxee 4 Oct, 2023 @ 3:44pm 
If anyone is curious this still works with the new update+dlc!
Hive Mind 8 Sep, 2023 @ 9:02am 
Awesome! Thank you.
ChuToy_89  [author] 7 Sep, 2023 @ 6:01pm 
@Hive Mind - Yes!
Hive Mind 7 Sep, 2023 @ 5:44pm 
Does this affect battlefield missions as well?
ChuToy_89  [author] 6 Sep, 2023 @ 12:02am 
@Veevslav - You're welcome!
Veevslav 5 Sep, 2023 @ 4:38pm 
Awesome, thank you for considering it and making this mod.
ChuToy_89  [author] 5 Sep, 2023 @ 4:28pm 
@Veevslav - There might be, but I wouldn't know how to do it. (It would not be an easy thing to do like what I've done for this mod.) I'd love to implement something like that as an option, though! (It's something I've thought about.)
Veevslav 5 Sep, 2023 @ 10:58am 
I am curious if there is anyway to add salvage points for the warzone running longer.
ChuToy_89  [author] 17 Aug, 2023 @ 3:16pm 
@Blanchimont - You're very welcome. :)
Blanchimont 17 Aug, 2023 @ 4:14am 
@ChuToy_89, I understand, if you figure out to make one, I will use it.

Nevertheless, thank you for the effort in making this mod.
ChuToy_89  [author] 16 Aug, 2023 @ 11:05pm 
@Blanchimont - That would involve a lot of extra work, and would conflict with mods more easily. It is also beyond the scope of this mod.

I have no current plans to incorporate such a change. (If I figure out how to do that someday, though, I may release it as a standalone mod, if it's not too much work!)

Thanks.
Blanchimont 16 Aug, 2023 @ 9:56pm 
Thank you for the mod, though if possible, could you make the enemy spawn closer to the players are well?
Conan 23 Jun, 2023 @ 3:01pm 
I'm going to test a bit to see if it works at well with MercTech v3
coltace45 24 May, 2023 @ 11:17pm 
This should have been standard making the risk worth the reward. Playing the stock game it made no sense staying for a few hundred thousand cbills
Nabbs1 5 May, 2023 @ 9:59am 
derp ..ty
ChuToy_89  [author] 5 May, 2023 @ 12:09am 
@Nabbs1 - Yes - it's outlined in the description.
Nabbs1 4 May, 2023 @ 3:28pm 
ahaha .. 1 hour searching later. Coyote's Mission Pack?
