    Is this compatible with Kestrel Lancers? I mean, besides certainly not containing updated descriptions for mechs released after the mod was released.

    You have two images for the mod, to bad they are the same image. a before and after set of images would have been better.

    Hello. Your mod introduces a new Folder called Source.
    Your instructions do not mention WHERE to install this new folder. Does this new Source folder get added to the Paks folder? Why not tell us where to install the new folder?

    Love this mod! Thank you!

    I can't seem to be able to find the mech descriptions for mechs that I already own. Is there a way to see it? Maybe I'm not looking in the right place.

      "Market" tab at the top, then switch from the small "Market" tab on the left to your "Inventory" tab. Now you can browse your "Active Hangar" and "Cold Storage". View a description by selecting that 'Mech, same as on the Market.
