Nice mod. Would be good to also change the descriptions of wrecks as they still use the old names. I often have to restore a wreck just to know what it can be turned into :D

Thank god, I hated having to read three paragraphs just to understand what the vehicles were actually for

Hello, thank you for the mod!

Could support be added for Snow Crawler (Continued)? The name is not being changed to "Snowcrawler" in my game.

Mod: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3558174046

@booperius incorrect it would instead be a military utility vehicle

it IS a humvee tho

For the record, "Humvee" isn't a generic term, its a specific model of vehicle (its a short nickname for its actual acronym, fun fact there, the acronym being HMMWV) developed under what might be best called called a profile of a "Light Tactical Vehicle" i.e not quite a civilian vehicle, but definitely a military vehicle.

So if you are themeing the vehicle names based on what they are rather than "flavor", the right term of the Humvee would be "Light Tactical Vehicle".

SOVLLESS

Ok, I expected more names, so use my knowledge, I beg you!
Heli = Little Bird
Mil Heli = Huey
Cargo Heli = Chinook
APC = M113
Aeroplane = Cessna
Armored Car = Guy Light Tank
Snowcrawler = Bradley IFV
Heavy tank = Abrams (or Chalenger 2)
Fighter Plane = Mitsubishi Zero?
"Light" tank = Leman Russ Battle tank

nice and good mod
can you make this compatible with vehicle wreck expanded?
cause the wreck still using default vehicle name

Since the Burya is technically just a stronger/heavier version of the Scytheman, wouldn't it make more sense to call it Heavy Rocket Artillery instead? Would also make it more consistent with the siege pod names.

Man that thumbnail got me
Tbh would be unexpected if someone actually made a mod for the thumbnail. If Age of History 3 and HOI 4 have mods for it we can probably get mods for it too

@Pure A good practice, sure, one you're owed? No, absolutely not, never. If you really care that much, back up your mod list and save and stop complaining that your triple layer chocolate cake doesn't have sprinkles on it.

@Gerewoatle and yet cause of steam auto update some saves get broken cause of an update they do and since they deleted their old version theres no way to save your 100 hour colony they dont need to support older version but idk placing a link to the prev. version just before major update is a good practice.

@Manul Oskar has a tendency to make super weird decisions with his mods and then defend them vehemently even if they get overwhelming pushback, so much for feeling grossed out by mods that aren't vanilla

@Scarlet - You're the one who chooses to play old and no longer supported versions of the game that is now on 1.5, so maybe you need to understand that mod authors who continue to support those older, obsolete versions of the game are doing you a favor . One you aren't owed and which is entirely voluntary on the part of the mod authors.

You deleted your mods because you aren't updating them anymore?
I hate people who do that, some of us still played on older versions and you just broke all of their mod lists because they were stupid enough to enjoy your mod.

I'm sure everyone in this comment section is now thinking you'll do that to this mod too and break their list ifever 1.6 comes out.

I really do not understand why they were all given nicknames in the original mod. It's bad in so many ways. It's confusing, nonsensical and immersion breaking. This mod is absolutely required for me to use VVE.

@Antarctica Man For Tier 3, find a wreck somewhere on the map (source: mod description on Vanilla Vehicles Expanded Tier 3), and then restore it with parts that you bring with you. After restoring one then you can research and build extras. One wreck of Tier 3 will always spawn in every generated map tile in the world, and you can find extras on any kind of road. Ancient asphalt roads generate the most since I found one LAV and two off-road jeeps that way. Catch is you gotta restore them on the spot which is how I ended up always bringing three Tier 2 trucks worth of supplies, car parts, and people to every Raid until I got the Big Rig and Badger IFV.

@Antarctica Man Research the Higher Tiers

how do you upgrade tiers

Calling the Large Van the "Snatcher" is Wild

[Update Note] I deleted most of my old mods from the workshop, as I don't plan on updating them anymore. There's a link on my profile if you want to take them over. The other mods in the workshop will all be updated to 1.5. Please be patient.

ty!

never understood why they nicknamed those, they didnt nickname their uranium slug rifle either

@turkler No problem go ahead!

heyyo, I like the idea but I had some other ideas on how the vehicles could be named. would you mind if I reused the xml for this mod to release my own rename patch?

good mod, thank you

Thank you for keeping this mod up to date so far. As much as I enjoy the VVE mods, the naming of them is a little too out there for me.

Update.
- Toad renamed to Siege Pod
- Scytheman renamed to Rocket Artillery

@Settlerking
Kinda agree. For something that's.. you know.. "Vanilla" expanded, the names don't quite fit.
@Lyn
Thanks for the mod (thumbsup.jpg)

Hey I think the tier 3 wrecks still have the old names in their info boxes like "With enough resources this can be restored into a ____"

thanks for the update. As good as the vehicles are i cant help but dislike how the VVE names are.

Oh god there were some serious bugs in the update, but I fixed them now

@Titan Methos yes, it will rename all your guns to Pew-Pew

Updated with Tier 3 vehicles.

It is time for ultimate question... Is it Combat Extended Compatible?

Lol, I've been thinking about how I wished they were just named what they were, and here I stumble on this mod. I kneel.

I didn't realize how much I needed this, this feels so much better. Thanks!

Updated, Wisent is now Large Truck. Highwayman was changed to Armored Car. Tango was changed to APC.

Updated, Bunsen is now Flame Tank (even though I think that's a very clever name)

Bunsen update is out for VVE

The mod image reminds me of the Girls und Panzer mod that never been continued

F for bangbus, she was the bangiest of buses

RIP bangbus

Added support for Snow Crawler. The Wintermute is now named Snowcrawler.

Many people are too young to know what a dinghy is. Not an excuse to change them, just an explanation as to why they might need to use a different name.

Fixed the bugs that were preventing the names from showing. Should be working now. If it doesn't change, try resubscribing again or verify the game files.

Dinghy is the proper name for that type of boat though.

making the naming scheme consistent really helps me keep track of the vehicles, (and frankly i was kinda didnt like the vibe over the large van being called the snatcher)

Hang on, I think there's a bug that isn't making the names work, at least for me. I'll look into it.
