Glad to hear its going well, I will sniff out your discord and pop in to see what your working on.

Many thanks for allowing me.

Hey, game dev is going well, spending most of my time lately growing the community/network/recruiting advocates.

Yeah, you're certainly welcome to make a mk mod with these. If you want to discuss thing you can join my Discord. Just make sure you add me as a contributor, don't want the mod getting flagged.
CaveBadgerMan 5 Jun, 2021 @ 3:01am 
Hey Shaostoul, Ask a long time ago about using these within a Mk mod made.
Is this still ok to do with the link and rights to you still?

Hope the gaming creations still going well.

You're welcome to fix/alter/reupload it. To ensure it doesn't get flagged add me as a contributor.

hello there~ im rn working on getting into modding for the first time, and i decides to choose ur mod for my first attempt. can i reupload this mod with fix for different stuff? and yeah, i will put the original link in or whatever u want me to. that event a while ago scares me, so i wont miss that. real big thanks!
Shaostoul  [author] 29 Jun, 2020 @ 2:12pm 
Certainly! Add me as a friend so you can add me as a contributor to the mod, that way when fans of my work see your reupload of my mod they don't flag it.
Zardo 29 Jun, 2020 @ 8:24am 
Hey there! I love this mod great work! I posted this on Apothicons version originally and he kindly directed me to ask here :)
I was wondering if we could have permission to incorporate this into our own modpack (Im a admin on the sigma draconis cluster) We would need to reupload due to component edits and a few re-balances. Complete with full credit of course!
Thanks for your time!
Apothicon 24 Jan, 2020 @ 6:41pm 
ohh ok thx i will do that now
Shaostoul  [author] 24 Jan, 2020 @ 5:39pm 
Were you able to figure it out Apothicon?

Thank you for the assist General!
Lazy Invincible General 23 Jan, 2020 @ 9:40am 
you have to add him as a friend (had to do for a BP a while back also, took me a few tries to get it right)
Apothicon 23 Jan, 2020 @ 8:08am 
Ok so how do i add you as a contributor to the mod? It's only showing people on my friends list.
Apothicon 22 Jan, 2020 @ 12:56pm 
k thx
Shaostoul  [author] 22 Jan, 2020 @ 12:40pm 
Sure, make sure to add me on Steam and then add me as a contributor to the mod. My fans are very protective and I don't want you to get flagged and the mod taken down.
Apothicon 21 Jan, 2020 @ 2:36pm 
Is it ok if I reupload a version of this mod where I change the recipes to make the block function as armor?
Shaostoul  [author] 6 Nov, 2019 @ 7:40pm 
You sure can, make sure to add me on Steam, then make me a contributor to the mod. Otherwise my fans will likely flag it.
123 6 Nov, 2019 @ 3:46pm 
heya, may i reupload the model in a seperate mod to add different functionality to it? I will link to whatever you request me to link to. thanks
Shaostoul  [author] 28 Aug, 2019 @ 1:59pm 
You certainly can. :) Are you in my Discord?
Bertin 28 Aug, 2019 @ 8:03am 
Hi Shaostoul I can take over of this mod, and I also have the sources for Hammerman mods I believe you shared them with me years ago. If i can take over please add me here on steam.
Shaostoul  [author] 16 Apr, 2019 @ 6:25pm 
@La Sainte, the only way this mod is getting updated is if someone takes it over for me.

@drmskr thank you! We've already been having a ton of success. We signed out first band a week ago called Tengger Cavalry. They're also making music for DOOM Eternal and Civilization 6. We're in the process of getting a hold of lot of people and companies. We will be able to walk around in game with our first tiling system likely before the 21st of this month. It's all on our website.
drmskr 16 Apr, 2019 @ 4:29pm 
@Shaostoul Good Luck! Hope it everything works out for ya!

Hi! It seems that small blocks are broken : i can't even see the information about Kw input in the control panel. Thanks for the great work!
Shaostoul  [author] 5 Mar, 2019 @ 10:04pm 
Hey guys, I'm so sorry to do this to you, but I need to work on my future for concern of not having one if I'm not careful. Please check out the video added to the description discussing me going on hiatus from modding Space Engineers.
Shaostoul  [author] 1 Mar, 2019 @ 4:00am 
Hello everyone, I wanted to give you an update as to what is presently transpiring. I'm developing a sci-fi video game, with a bunch of SE modders, and we just had this little opportunity pop up: https://www.facebook.com/Shaostoul/posts/10218897253681722

If SE sponsors the development of this game (currently dubbed Project Universe), we could see a ton of updates to my SE mods, as I'll be able to safely work on modding a ton, while simultaneously working to develop my own game.
Shaostoul  [author] 26 Nov, 2018 @ 3:45pm 
It happens, all good
Lazy Invincible General 26 Nov, 2018 @ 3:39pm 
nvm, apparently my graphics was playing tricks on me because I was actually in the shadows, they started to work properly once the sun was in the middle of the sky
Lazy Invincible General 26 Nov, 2018 @ 3:37pm 
hmmm, I'm showing no energy output for the panels even when in the sun, says that the max output of them is also 0 kw, I'll take a few screnshots if you need them to confirm, and did remove any other mods I had enabled to double check if there was something else messing with it
Shaostoul  [author] 23 Oct, 2018 @ 9:01pm 
Interesting. Wonder what the devs change. It'll be a long while before I can get to it though. My health isn't doing well. Bleeding internally cause of Crohn's Disease so, I'm not doing any modding.
Sabrewulf 23 Oct, 2018 @ 8:39pm 
SG is showing same KW output as LG
Shaostoul  [author] 12 Sep, 2018 @ 10:23pm 
From the description:

Mod details:
-All blocks are in a "Shaostoul" tab.
Large & small grid variants
Curious Mando 12 Sep, 2018 @ 10:15pm 
is this for small ships?
EYESTER 19 Aug, 2018 @ 11:12pm 
k thx anyway
Shaostoul  [author] 19 Aug, 2018 @ 10:53am 
Not presently. I don't have a programmer that I work with on a regular basis for my mods, so I couldn't do it right now. I don't have the time to learn C# to do it myself.
EYESTER 19 Aug, 2018 @ 3:26am 
Can you make solar panels that extend sothat when the battery is full you can retract it making the ships thin thus making it less chance to hit somthing and then extend it when the battery is almost empty. Prefer manualy operated
Alexs 27 Jul, 2018 @ 5:50am 
I like these panels .. especially the window over the corner .. great idea!
Sumiko 1 Jul, 2018 @ 5:04pm 
Oh my goodness this is so awesome, I love the look and the shapes. Thank you so much for making this @.@
UnDead Machine 12 Jun, 2018 @ 11:23pm 
Another request, Add components to these solar panels so that the have the same durability, damage resistance, as regular window blocks. I guess that would just be bulletproof glass.
Shaostoul  [author] 12 Jun, 2018 @ 12:22am 
Maybe? We'll see. You can join my Discord and remind me whenever you see that I'm looking for a specific SE project to work on.
UnDead Machine 11 Jun, 2018 @ 10:18pm 
I would like to have armor blocks with solar panels built into the sloped face of the armor block. It would be nice to be able to have solar panels built into the sloped ribs of my ships. Materals cost could be almost a combination of a light armor block and a vanilla solar panel.
Shaostoul  [author] 18 Mar, 2018 @ 2:23am 
Hey guys, in case you didn't know a few of us modders for SE got invited to talk about video game modding at Emerald City Comic Con March 2! We've been waiting on getting the video posted about the panel and it is now live!

https://youtu.be/qPb8-tTzIIA

We discuss the benefits of video game modding on individuals, the community, and the developers. Definitely feel free to chime in and on the subject and let's build something more out of this! It's with your support that this was possible and I'd love to see it grow as a force for the good of creativity.
Dark_but_Good 15 Mar, 2018 @ 4:51am 
Oh yes sorry I can tell now by the block edges sorry that was dumb of me.
Shaostoul  [author] 14 Mar, 2018 @ 6:18pm 
Hey guys, just updated to hopefully fix the crash on mirror. Lemme know if you run into any other issues!
Shaostoul  [author] 14 Mar, 2018 @ 3:55pm 
@requiem yeah, all the mods :(

@dark eh? The screenshot in the mod is new or were you wanting more?

@charlie yes, they're solar panels.

Sorry I didn't reply sooner, wasn't subbed to the thread for some reason. I have update coming soon for the mirror construction crash.
Nonexistent 14 Mar, 2018 @ 1:11pm 
Do these work as solar panels or are they just windows?
Dark_but_Good 11 Mar, 2018 @ 7:16am 
now that there are new models for this mod is there any chance that the screenshots for the mod page get updated too?
requiemfang 9 Mar, 2018 @ 12:15am 
@Shaostoul ouch sucks about that, guess that applies to all of your mods eh? having to rebuild/update the from scratch.
Shaostoul  [author] 7 Mar, 2018 @ 7:52pm 
Hey guys, huge update to the mod! I had to remake all the models because, all the source files were lost when my computer died back in November. Unfortunately it is large but, that's because all blocks have 2 construction stages and 2 LODs. There are no custom textures, so all of the file size comes directly from the models. I didn't change any balance or anything, just remade the models, so you can have glass in them again.
Solraven 2 Mar, 2018 @ 10:47pm 
wow, tht looks cool!
