OVERVIEW

This mod brings a skin for CFA-44 based on Metalgarurumon from Digimon anime and games, featuring special weapons and performance adjustment inspired by Metalgarurumon's abilities. Weapons, Stats, and Skin are applied to the selected skin slot, which can be standard game Skin Slot (Slot 2 - 8) or Additional Skin Slot by Sincerity.

DETAILS

Custom skin based on Metalgarurumon. This mod brings custom skin inspired by Metalgarurumon, sporting metallic parts in some areas and Crest of Friendship on the tail.Canopy is also tinted (slightly) red as nod to Metalgarurumon's red eyes. This is purely visual.

Features customized weapons with custom skins and custom or altered VFX. ADMM is changed to 18-target all-at-once launch ADMM with custom missile skin, blue trails, and enlarged blast radius as reference to Grace Cross Freezer. 2-EML is replaced by dual-fire short duration blue TLS with bright impact particle, referencing Cocytus Breath. IEWS is replace by one LACM loaded in the belly pod with custom skin, sporting high damage and blast radius, referencing Garuru Tomahawk. MSL also uses customized skin and altered VFX.

Stat adjustments
As a reference to a relatively well-rounded character, the plane stats are adjusted. To balance the increased firepower, speed performance has been lowered and health has been reduced. The craft also no longer suffers from drift-locking after performing High-G turn.
