[clever zinc]

WIP mod almost ready, this is my first mod EVER! thanks to spicy and wheeze for giving me a few pointers and helping me with some of it got no ETA at the moment will publish soon on nexus mods when its ready

[tender terrace]

Hmm @clever zinc you should flip it, if you already haven't lmao

[clever zinc]

Waddya mean?

[tender terrace]

loosk nearly perfect, but the mantis blades are flipped in your mod

like left becomes right

[clever zinc]

Ahh the hand placement? That's something i don't think I can change it's apert of a animation 🤔?

@tender terrace if you know how to flip it I'll send u the file later after im done with work

[abstract gate]

[buoyant bison]

Oh

It didn’t show up for me

Thanks 👍

[shrewd dagger]

hey

the skin of the mantis blades dont appear for me only the crosshair

and i saw in a coment that i should put the fix inside mod carpet but anything change

[clever zinc]

there is a texture override mod as a requirement on the mod page that should fix it

[shrewd dagger]

Okey i will try thanks

[shrewd dagger]

it does not work

[clever zinc]

You most likely have a mod that is conflicting with it, if you have any other mantis blade mods that might be your problem

[shrewd dagger]

That's the thing, I don't have any mantis, cyberware, or any modifications to my arm or skin, so I don't know what's going on. Maybe you should put a more detailed installation guide in the mod description because in the comments people say that you need to put the .archive file in the mods section and it's confusing, if you can't do that could you tell them where exactly to put the files please?

[clever zinc]

Its a Redmod one of the easiest mod types to install

Cyberpunk directory - mod - done ✅

[shrewd dagger]

@clever zinc yo bro is there anyway to make this mod work but without the dot crosshair?

like i want to use the retail one so can i disable the dot and replace it for the vanilla one?

[clever zinc]

Sup broo

Umm

[shrewd dagger]

suppp

i love yr mod btw

[clever zinc]

Ok soooo not atm unfortunately, i do get my new pc hopefully tomorrow, i don't have a pc right now I'm planning on updating all my mods and I'll make the retail cross-hair an optional mod

[shrewd dagger]

ohh okk

mabye you can so the vanilla crosshair but with a recolor for more e3 vibe

mabye white and other file with a red option

[clever zinc]

[shrewd dagger]

also try to retore the old monowire bro that would be a banger

like the crosshair

[clever zinc]

I'll see what I can do

[shrewd dagger]

alr again tnx for the mod

is soo E3

but yeah try updating it and mabye revamp the textures to look more accuarte (:

[clever zinc]

I got the last part to build my pc but my PSU was faulty... what an annoying turn of events now EVEN MORE WAITING should be good to go next week hopefully

[shrewd dagger]

omg

i will wait

i love mantis so idc

[clever zinc]

Finally

[shrewd dagger]

heyy

looks cool bro

yo how is going the mod ?

any update

mabye a tweak for the crosshair already?

[shrewd dagger]

@clever zinc

[clever zinc]

I'm trying to make time to start doing my mods, I had just got a new job on a mine site so I got my hands full atm I'm gonna try and update my mods tonight, I'm installing cyberpunk on my new pc rn

[shrewd dagger]

Okey bro tnx :) (update first the mantis blade one)

[clever zinc]

its coming along slowly no etc atm mod has been hidden for the time being

[clever zinc]

this is as close as i can get to the demo

[shrewd dagger]

okk bro

looks cool

also like the inside of the arm is accurate ?

or is way difficult to do it

[shrewd dagger]

also try to remove the decalls

i think 2018 version dosent have that decalls

that would be more acc

[shrewd dagger]

heyyy

the mod looks amazing

but can you do a changelog ?

and also, is your E3 V texture mod updating too or just mantis and vindicator

[clever zinc]

E3 v doesn't need to be touched at all which is nice and yeah I just made the mantisblade mod compatible with the e3 vindicator so it doesn't call for the default weapon icon, more changes will be coming for the mantisblades tho

[shrewd dagger]

yoo knonix the mantis default crosshair optional file is not working

the model dosent changes at all

only the icom

icon*

and also change the color of the crosshair to whiteee

pleaseeeeey

[clever zinc]

What model? the whole mantisblade cyberware or the crosshair? Send me a video

[shrewd dagger]

the whole cyberware

the icon works perfectly

[clever zinc]

Send me a picture or video

[shrewd dagger]

oh and i recommend you to change the name of the "RedMod" file to just "mod" so is way ez to jus drag and drop archive and redmod file at the same time

[clever zinc]

Yeah I added the RedMod folder because some people had no idea were the file went lol

[shrewd dagger]

yeah that happend to me too so fair enough

lol

[clever zinc]

https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/5266

[shrewd dagger]

oh and also, the E3vindicator mod is conflicting with the mantis one, the vindicator is "winning" the "atlas_ammo_counter.xbm" file

[clever zinc]

Install this

[shrewd dagger]

yes i have it installed

the main file works perfectly

but the optional file dosent

idk why

i should like merge both files ?

[clever zinc]

Hm

[shrewd dagger]

or just install one of them

cuz i just installed one of them

[clever zinc]

Just one of them

[shrewd dagger]

yeah i did that

[clever zinc]

Send me a screenshot of that

[shrewd dagger]

i should let vindicator mod win ?

or let mantis win?

[shrewd dagger]

i think by default the vindicator wins but idk

[clever zinc]

there are no conflicts with e3 mantisblades and e3 vindicator i have just confirmed this everything is working fine on my end, its your game dude something els would have to be conflicting with them

[shrewd dagger]

check on conflict tool bro

i didnt say nothing about a conflict IN game

i just mentioned that in the tool theres a conflict

theres no way that have something to do with my game

cuz that are the files of your mods

[clever zinc]

I did that and my load order didn't have any conflicts, I didn't even know conflict checker existed lol kinda handy

[smoky plank]

@clever zinc Hello, I have a question regarding E3 mantis blades. Isn't the icon that is used in the current version of the mod (in a square frame) the "effect status icon"? In terms of, judging by the demo, it is used only during the animation playback, and then disappears (the same with the use of the reflex booster)

[clever zinc]

Yeah I just thought it looked cool

[smoky plank]

Okey-dokey, really cool job

[shrewd dagger]

yo abt the gig icon

can you make a optional file for it ?

[clever zinc]

This is also the wrong showcase channel for that mod lol

[shrewd dagger]

omfg

HAHA

yo bro i just found something

so i was looking at some old 2018 ui/hud of the Ui senior designer and i found this\

they look like old mantis blades crosshair

you should try to recreate some

[clever zinc]

I have no idea how to create crosshairs i only know how to edit them, i haven't looked into much, I'm also in the middle of updating the e3 icon mod

[clever zinc]

Is there a video for this iv actually never seen this in my life

[shrewd dagger]

no, is just an image

[shrewd dagger]

okey so mabye try editing the current one to do a E3-ish style ?

cuz idk just a white point is kinda boring

[shrewd dagger]

also, what this new icon update gona include ?

[clever zinc]

Alot of new icons you'll have to wait and see it's painfully long i started last night

[shrewd dagger]

nicr

any release date ?

[shrewd dagger]

yo nice update

how much time get you to do all the icons lol

also

can you do the nanowire icon

like the deep dive vid

like your old mod ?

or that one still works

[clever zinc]

@shrewd dagger there's a showcase page for the icons mod now

[shrewd dagger]

aight

[smoky plank]

I have a question: will there be similar mods for implants? Like red strong arms with black brass knuckles?

[clever zinc]

Thinking about it

[smoky plank]

Yupiiii

[shrewd dagger]

There is a mod that do that on nexxus

Mabye try to recréate deep dive video nanowire

Also the crosshair

I think that is way possible
