Changes made for VRO
Ships

  • The Gharial battleship (this mod) is now the Copperhead Battleship
  • The Fulmar battleship is now called the Raven Battleship
  • The Centaur Mk2 is now the Aamon Battleship
  • The Argon Manticore Frigate is now the Enenra Frigate.
  • The Kea Gunboat is renamed to the Egret Gunboat. This is so that it doesn't conflict with the Kea in Axesface's Mod
  • The ATF Valkyrie is now the Freyr
  • The Xenon R is now the Xenon J as the R already exists in the Rise of the Ossian Raider mod
  • The Xenon V is now the Xenon F as the V is already in the VRO mod
  • The SVE Viper is removed as VRO already includes a Split Missile Destroyer called the "Viper" using the exact same hull.

Balance Changes

  • L and XL ships have all had their hull dramatically increased and speed/manueverability decreased.
  • The Cockatrice and Atrox prices were reduced to bring them more in-line with their VRO counterparts.
  • Wares adjusted accordingly to best match VRO balance
  • S and M ship hulls and speed are adjusted where necessary for VRO balance.
  • Ship Weapons and Missiles now configured with VRO tags.
  • Split Caiman and Taipan each have a single HighPower L Turret group.

@PringleMan - I do not track differences with other ship mods for the most part. There are too many out there for me to track. So I just track within the context of VRO and a few other smaller mods.

@strat3g1 - it is save compatible with an existing VRO save. This is not balanced or meant to be used with a non-VRO save. It is NOT flagged as incompatible with saves, just know that it is NOT balanced for vanilla. If you want that, just use the vanilla mod without this patch. This patch just edits the XML file data to adjust numbers for VRO changes.

I'm using this mod with X4 Reemergence. No issues with loading, I would recommend verify game files and re-download the mods.

Its save compatibile? Cant find info

I can't seem to buy the Fenrir blueprints, tis a shame.

Note: the crash from the dump says it is a KERNELBASE!RaiseException+0x69 which is not super helpful since it does not point to a specific problem
PringleMan 11 Oct @ 1:07pm 
Are you tracking any major incompatibilities with other ship mods or with X4 Reemergence? I am running just fine until I add this and SVE, and then I get crashes at the last stages of loading in a save (around the 97% mark).

@sexy red Dragon 1 - make sure the issue you find is associated with this mod. The Hydra is a core game ship. If there is an issue with that it's not going to be in this mod.

As stated before, this mod just modifies text files (namely XML files) to update ship stats for VRO balance. IF there is an issue with a forward gun, that's likely a problem with the ship 3D model... which I do not work on.

If you ever want to travel to China I will pay for all your accommodations !

@josh red Dragon 1 - that ship you're referring to, the Megalodon, is from the VRO mod, NOT from this mod. SVE doesn't add any new battleships for the Boron faction and SVE VRO is simply a VRO compatibility patch.
