Vanilla Plus
REQUIRES ALL DLC
The basic premice of Vanilla Plus is to add all the imported assets to the base game plus a couple of QoL improvement mods without changing anything drastically (well clans ruin balance but meh).

Adds 112 (I think) new modelled mechs to the base game.
Adds 10 new modelled turrets to the base game.
Adds 40'ish new modelled vehicles to the base game.

Extra options for career difficulty.
22 more ronin pilots.
Random mechs for new careers, can be any light or medium mech.
Shops at 6 planets can sell any of the new mech's parts or weapons/ammo/upgrades etc
Half and Double ammo

Balance and accuracy to lore
Clans ruin balance full stop, This mod is not aimed at complete balance. It's aimed at having fun.
I have tried my upmost to make sure every mech variant is 100% accurate, however this is hard sometimes with vanilla.

USING THIS WITH ANY OTHER MAJOR MODPACK WILL NOT WORK.

Install Guide

Install the CAB to your main battletech folder "steamapps\common\BATTLETECH\Mods" not "\Documents\My Games\BattleTech\mods"
Extract Vanilla plus to
"steamapps\common\BATTLETECH\Mods"
Run ModTekInjector.exe in the "BATTLETECH\Mods\modtek"
Enjoy the game with added stompyness


This mod collection will not work with HBS's mod loader, only ModTek

If for any reason you don't like any of the included mods removing them is simple and will not impact a new game.

Say for example you dislike the SkipIntro mod, just delete the folder with the same name.

Folders with the following names are essential and will break game if deleted:
BattletechPerformanceFix
Modtek

Vanilla Plus Core
VANPLUSMechsVanilla


VANPLUSTurrets and VANPLUSVehicles can be removed with no impact, as long as you don't have a save in a deployment.

Stopping specfic mech's from spawning:


Say for example you detest a certain mech, lets use the Xenorauder for example open the relevant mechdef in a text editor (I recommend notepad++)

At the very top you will see this




Add the line "BLACKLISTED" and make sure to add a comma at the end of the line above it, so it would look like this image



This will stop the xenorauder from spawning in missions but will not affect anything if you already have the mech
