About this mod
a modder utility to export custom mechs from the skirmish mechbay to a form that can be loaded by mods
- Permissions and credits
- Changelogs
This is a modders resouce aimed at helping create variants of a mech by allowing the user to create mechs in the game's skirmish mechbay. This utility can then load this data and export it into complete mech and chassis def json files ready (or nearly ready) for use by a mod.
Features:
For Mods using ME & CC you can also:
** WARNING: Attempting to add mechs to a mod without proper knowledge of that mod may break it and void any support from the respective mod teams. this tool should only be used for mods you are developing **
This mod is only available on Nexus mods, if you have downloaded it from somewhere else it has been stolen and I cannot guarantee it is free of malware.
Common Problems and Questions
1. Where do I load from?
If you are using Vanilla or a mod that does not move the save location, simply press 'Load Registry' to load the available custom mechs. If you use a mod that moves the save location (Like BTA or RT), then press the arrow next to 'Load Cache', select the appropriate mod and then select the root of your Battletech installation when prompted and it will load the available mechs.
2. My mod moves the save location but is not listed
