Works with game version: 1.1.323
Installation:
Download and unzip the main file. Place the unzipped folder containing a mod.json, Paks folder, etc. into the Mods folder of your MW5 installation (discard the Nexus created folder that has numbers at the end of the mod name). You can go in-game to Mods and click the Manual-install folder if you're having trouble finding it.
Just set the mod active and the deadlines will be pushed back. That's it.
Details:
Extends the expiration dates for the Legend of the Kestrel Lancers DLC campaign arcs past the year 6500. I tried removing the limits entirely but that broke things so they're just pushed out to a time you probably won't reach.
This is not lore friendly but you won't be forced to take on the DLC when you don't feel like it or have to make a new save and lose progress. Recommended to set up some heavy/medium mechs instead of assaults since tonnage limits for Kestrels is around the 300 range.
This was a personal mod that I've successfully used for my own campaign save, completing the first Kestrel scenario in the year 3039 with no issues and starting/finishing the second half in the year 3042 after beating the vanilla campaign.
- Works with new careers starts like Rasalhague in the year 3035 (you can use this for testing if the mod works) and fresh campaign saves.
- If using an existing save, you can not have received the "past deadline date" transmission from Ryana or have aborted the mission, otherwise the game marks it permanently failed and you will need a new save.
- Should work for older saves that don't have the Kestrels DLC symbol on it as those wouldn't have loaded the mission arc in yet.
