Put requests here! [Defunct, new threads in my collection]
This is for requests and ideas for mods i should make, as of now i'm only removing particles and recoloring things, but i hope to change this soon.

i've got some ideas already, but feel free to post your ideas for what items i should do next.
my list:
  1. R̶e̶m̶o̶v̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶P̶a̶r̶t̶i̶c̶l̶e̶s̶ ̶f̶r̶o̶m̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶D̶a̶r̶k̶ ̶S̶e̶t̶ ̶(̶t̶h̶i̶s̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶u̶n̶o̶b̶t̶a̶i̶n̶a̶b̶l̶e̶ ̶s̶e̶t̶,̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶t̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶c̶o̶m̶p̶l̶e̶t̶e̶l̶y̶ ̶b̶l̶a̶c̶k̶)̶
    DONE
  2. ̶R̶e̶m̶o̶v̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶P̶a̶r̶t̶i̶c̶l̶e̶s̶ ̶f̶r̶o̶m̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶D̶a̶r̶k̶ ̶D̶i̶s̶g̶u̶i̶s̶e̶ ̶S̶e̶t̶ ̶(̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶o̶b̶t̶a̶i̶n̶a̶b̶l̶e̶,̶ ̶n̶o̶t̶ ̶c̶o̶m̶p̶l̶e̶t̶e̶l̶y̶ ̶b̶l̶a̶c̶k̶ ̶s̶e̶t̶)̶
    DONE
  3. L̶e̶a̶r̶n̶ ̶h̶o̶w̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶r̶e̶t̶e̶x̶t̶u̶r̶e̶ ̶a̶n̶ ̶i̶t̶e̶m̶'̶s̶ ̶f̶r̶a̶m̶e̶s̶ ̶w̶i̶t̶h̶o̶u̶t̶ ̶i̶t̶ ̶m̶a̶k̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶i̶t̶e̶m̶ ̶i̶n̶v̶i̶s̶i̶b̶l̶e̶ DONE, was trying to use .patch, but you actually just have to dirty edit the json
  4. ̶L̶e̶a̶r̶n̶ ̶h̶o̶w̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶a̶d̶d̶ ̶t̶h̶u̶m̶b̶n̶a̶i̶l̶s̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶m̶o̶d̶s̶

ooh, sounds challenging. I'll try it :P
P.s, should the stuff be admin only, craftable (if so where), chest item, etc
amyy  [developer] 1 Jan, 2018 @ 5:25am 
P.S.S i might post the sprites here (currently using Hokucide's sprite as a base for the sword, i think i'll use the Bandit's hood as a base sprite for the helmet, the torn protectorate cape as a base for the cape, etc

If its not too much trouble i would like to see the items be a rare drop in large decorated chests in avian temples for lore purposes and im assuming the gear will be pretty high leveled so want to make it somewhat hard to obtain.

P.s i wouldnt mind seeing the sprites if u posted them.
Um...is there a way to make weather effects not cause as much lag, without straight up removing it? I lose around 10 fps whenever there is a snowstorm or other similar effect going on.

For an actual request, I want to ask if it´s possible to make a mod which lowers the energy usage of mechs. I find that the mechs use energy up way to fast whenever I go exploring on planets. I was thinking of 50% energy reduction.

not sure, but i'll tinker around with it.

ill upload the sword as a screenshot in a bit, i still have to work on the armor (if someone can sprite the armor let me know cause i cant do armor for the life of me)

WALL OF TEXT, FOR RESPONSES:

𝔼𝕥𝕖𝕣𝕟𝕒𝕝 𝕍𝕠𝕩 : (using unicode text for this, makes it look cool)
here's the sword (it has some transparency, and when you swing it it glows and has particles)
i haven't gotten around to giving it a altability ( i used hokucide as a base for the sword, for several reasons)
the animation for it is pretty much done, but i might be able to polish it slightly more.
As for the armor, i have the helmet sprited, screenshot here: (let me know if it needs improvement, i've never played Hyper Light Drifter)

ℂ𝕙𝕒𝕟𝕔𝕪𝕣𝕖.𝕚𝕟𝕚 :
for reducing the mech power usage, i've located the exact line of code that changes the energy usage, meaning i could just dirty edit it (probably making it incompatible with other mech changing mods), o̶r̶ ̶p̶a̶t̶c̶h̶ ̶i̶t̶ ̶(̶w̶h̶i̶c̶h̶ ̶i̶ ̶m̶i̶g̶h̶t̶ ̶d̶o̶,̶ ̶n̶o̶t̶ ̶s̶u̶r̶e̶ ̶y̶e̶t̶ ̶t̶h̶o̶u̶g̶h̶)̶ EDIT: unfortunately, you can't patch lua files, so this will be incompatible (probably) with any mod that changes that lua file. However, if you want, i could simply double the energy of all the mechs, and that would be compatible (probably).
DONE: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1255115703

and about the weather having less lag, that's actually really easy. you see, when i made the Remove Midnight Sandstorms mod, i didn't actually remove anything, which would have messed up stuff for mods that modify its weather. what i did do, was just change the particle spawn density to 0, making it not appear.

So far from what ive seen the sword and helmet are perfect.

and if it would be possible idk much about modding but could you add the sword charge ability for broadswords to it as an alt ability? its an ability that the sword has in the original game

P.s i would highly recommend you try hyper light drifter its really good the best way i can describe it is its like those old top down zelda games like a link to the past.

you mean the Giant Sword Ability[prntscr.com], or the Empowerment ability[prntscr.com] from the protector's sword?
anyways i might buy Hyper Light Drifter once my card arrives, it looks pretty cool
Akulakhan 3 Jan, 2018 @ 7:37am 
i meant the giant sword ability

kk
i've made the cape, and i added the yellow crystal thingy to the hat
i think i'll just recolor some vanilla armor for the chest and legs
cape's sprite (animations): http://prntscr.com/hvl7t7
amyy  [developer] 3 Jan, 2018 @ 8:35am 
P.S, if you want any specific descriptions for the items let me know
Akulakhan 3 Jan, 2018 @ 8:40am 
For a description just put "Armor of a long forgotten warrior" then just replace armor with helmet for the helmet description and etc.
amyy  [developer] 3 Jan, 2018 @ 9:34am 
kk, i got the helmet working and i believe the cape too, i'll finish off the sword.
the gem is part of the head, just let me know if you want the rest of the armor done
will post screenshots in a sec
P.S should i call the items anything, i'm using Hyper Light Drifter ____ (i.e. Hyper Light Drifter Sword, Hyper Light Drifter Helmet, etc) for the items for now.
