Biotic Lighting
This is my first mod for ME:A, or that i've uploaded to the nexus at all. I went hunting for a mod to change some of the lights on my favorite armors to blue, and there are a few recolors, but as a biotic user, none quite lined up with what I wanted. Searching through the comments on these mods I saw many of the same questions and that inspired me towards a little project.
After much learning and experimentation, I came out with this. I am releasing this as a teaser for the main mod I will be working on! My goal is to create a modular mod which will allow you to pick and choose what color the lights and visor on your armor sets are!
So..."What does this mod do?"
Well this teaser mod simply recolors the armor lights and visor on the Pathfinder and Heleus Armor to better suit a biotic. It is modular in the sense that there are 2 different colored visors, with 3 opacity levels for each. Simply follow the folders that have what you want, and place that in your mod folder. As of right now, you can't get JUST the Pathfinder OR Heleus armor. It's a package deal, BUT...with the main mod which I am working on...
All the armors in the single player game will have the lights recolored, you will be able to pick and choose which armors you want to change and which you don't...and finally there WILL be multiple colors. This is very tedious and will take a while for me to organize and do. Be patient with me. Until then, biotics...or people who just love that sweet MAXIMUM OVERBLUE...enjoy.
FINALLY
I will always be open to questions, however I will not answer any of the following questions if they are asked in the comments. The answer will be here for everyone to see. Any OTHER questions are okay though.
Q: "Can you do X Armor set?"
A: "I already plan to do all the armor sets. If it has lights on it, i'm gonna recolor it."
Q: "Oooh! Can you do X color next?"
A: "YES! If X color is the one I decide to do next. If not, then I will do it when I get to it. It will all get released at one time, as one modular mod."
Q: "Can I only use your recolor on X armor and leave the others untouched? Or use a different one on the other armors?"
A: "Right now, with this mod, no. I didn't think to do the armors as separate mods until I was already into it. I already have to redo it so I might as well just wait till I can release it as one mod"
Q: "Can you remove the lights instead?"
A: "But they're pretty! I do plan to release a version with the main mod that dulls the lights entirely...but I don't have to like it."
Q: "Can you recolor something aside from armor lights? My omni-tool? My abilities? MY CAT?!"
A: "At the moment, no, but I have been thinking about looking into the recoloring of other cool stuff so people can really customize how their character and everything tied to it looks. I am absolutely a fan of customization, and color coordination. I am still learning so if I can teach myself to do these things, the chances will go up I will add it to the mod."
Q: "When will it be released? ETA?"
A: "Your guess is as good as mine. I want to do this but understand Snacks is people too. I have stuffs to do, and I also want to play the game too :P I will try to work as fast as I can but I am one person...and even though this may sound simple...and it is....it is VERY tedious work. I WANT to release this mod to you. But it will take time."
Q: "Will donating make it faster?! Where is donate button?!"
A: "I don't feel like anyone would actually ask this question, but if you are for some reason..understand that it would feel weird accepting money for something like this. (I also don't feel like setting up a paypal) If you wish to express gratitude for this(lolwhytho) or for the main mod when it is released...simply saying thanks or SNACKS FOR THE SNACK GOD! are acceptable forms of thanks. I enjoy gratitude."
Q: "Snacks for the Snack God? Aren't you a lady?"
A: "Come on, man...Snacks for the Snack God just rolls off the tongue better, don't think about it."
Q: "Why are you still making up questions for people to not ask? Isn't that talking to yourself?"
A: "Look, this narrative just got a little out of hand. It's kind of addicting."
Q: "Well do I get anything for reading through all of this crap?"
A: "Knowledge, you get knowledge. And knowledge is power."
Thank you for your interest in my mod, and look forward to SNACKTASTICAL LIGHTS: Coming Soon-ish maybe kinda....kinda soon.
Please do not re-upload or whatever permission biz and stuff. I will release the .fbproject with the main mod so that you can tweak if you have need. So there's no point.
