I really like that parts of the crab mirelurks are blue. It reminded me that mirelurks are supposed to be horseshoe crabs, which have blue blood. Now if only there was a mod to make them bleed blue as well.
Will you be doing sounds for these as well? I'm most interested in the King Screams, I've heard it a thousand times by now and have considered making my own.
Believe it or not, I wanted to make sounds, but there is nothing wrong with them and the combination of vanilla and other sounds would be a bit off, I also tried several types of screams, but it's weird when 1 king keeps making different sounds. I can change the scream, I will, but only 1 type, because according to logic, when the king makes that destructive sound, it is one type, one octave, one frequency, changing the frequency also changes the effect of the sound. I don't know if I expressed myself well, I don't speak English very well. I will upload the sound here, maybe I will make several types, but you can only choose one, I will also make a video.
It's funny you say that, I just made new variants for the king, one of them does rad damage. I was planning on making unique sounds for it myself, then I found this and thought I'd ask.
I added 4 sounds. If you want, you can use them in your "New Mirelurk King Variants" mod. Permission granted. EDIT: Bloody hell, you are the creator of the Wicked Glowing Sea Orbs mod and other mods. I will take advantage of the situation. I have a question. The Wicked Glowing Sea Orbs mod is not compatible with the Dark Commonwealth mod, which also changes the weather. I have your plugin under the DC plugin, xEdit does not show a conflict with anything, what should I focus on? What can cause that I can't see orbs and even vanilla particles?
Wicked GS Orbs simply replaces the vanilla orbs, which are somewhat rare in the base game. Check the art effect data on rad weathers (next to precipitation right below cloud textures in XEdit). You can place them in any weather, though only one effect may be present at a time. If your mod adds fog effects, it may be cutting the orbs off. Look at my Wicked FX for NAC X/Vivid Weathers versions to see how I patched them into those mods, and feel free to edit and use my assets.
I've almost found a workaround so multiple visual effects will load on one weather, but it cuts in and out randomly. It's still cool having the orbs come and go during my quantum fog weathers tho, as they sort of fade back in. DM me if you are interested in checking it out, there's a lot to reference from it.
Nice work on those sounds BTW, I'm gonna throw some rad stank on em with FL Studio and make these Rad Kings absolutely OP.
Thanks for the tip, I'll look into it. About the Mirelurk Kings - their running could be faster, vanilla looks like they run in slow mo, which I think is done on purpose so the player can hit them.
I like a skill based challenge, my variants will not be bullet sponges (with a few large exceptions). Faster and hard hitting with unique combat abilities that require a strategic approach is the way imo.
I usually play without a sight, without counters, without a compass, without WATS, on the HUD I only have life, RADS, stamina, nothing more. Being raised on STALKER, I prefer the approach you described. DUST for FNV and FROST for FO4 are also good survival approaches. But my favorite was the mod for the old Horizon - Horizon Immersive Survival System by Qrsr. That was some hardcore masochism, but it made sense. I wish you the best of luck with your modding.
