Hi! I absolutely love this mod but I just wanted to ask could I upload a mod as an add on to this fixing some common problems people have with it Obviously you would be credited as the original creator, I'm just re editing it slightly to allow for more variety of playstyles and fix some problems like the kinsect drill (once I figure that one out), the buffs having too little time to have any chance of playing aerial ig, some attacks being way too overpowered and some possibly needing buffs
If you don't want me to do this, that's completely fine I'll just keep my file private! Also ik you're working on other games rn so sorry if this is annoying you cos it's an old mod
hey so I installed your mod but nothing has changed and the insect glaive is still the same, i dropped the nativepc folder into the respective folder but still nothing
At one point there was a NativePC fix needed to mod MHW. I'm not sure if this changed since I haven't played in a long time. You can ask the Monster Hunter Modding Discord for assistance with this. Things may have changed when I was gone, but it could just be needing to use the fix from a while ago.
Regarding your previous response about the kinsect drill. Is it possible to re-enable this via MHW editor? I've been messing around with it and changed some values, but I'm unsure of how you managed to change the descending thrust to not have the follow up attack to mark for the Kinsect Drill.
you need to edit the .fsm file and link the dive attack to the node for the landing attack using the landing condition. Since I'm working on another game right now I'm too rusty to give specifics on how. So reach out on the MH modding Discord and they should be able to help you.
Why does power pro longer not boost the color effects for kinsect? The buffs are way too short IMO kinda wish they were at least ten seconds five seconds is such a narrow window.
The idea is that the buffs are something you apply situationally rather than something to be on passively for a while after acquiring them. As for the skill not extending the time much, it's probably due to it being proportional to the already short duration. If I was still modding MHW I'd be figuring out a way to make it a slightly bigger bonus, but since I'm on indefinite hiatus from modding MHW I won't be making any changes or additions any time soon.
I would like to use it as the base for a modification I've made that will make the IG a dps styled weapon. If you find it appropriate to allow me permission, I would love to get this out to the public.
98% of everything is your work (and will be unmodified) so my idea wouldn't work without what you've already accomplished here-
If permission isn't given, may I link to your mod and present mine as an "add-on" to it?
Since most will be unchanged it'd be better to link my mod and present yours as an "add-on" to it. I can even link your mod in the description of this mod as a modification of it. Let me know when you have it set up and what exact changes you'll be making so I can represent it properly.
It isn't cheating. As in you aren't going to be banned or anything. However, you should only use it if the people you are playing with are ok with it, and no one else is using an unmodded Insect Glaive. The former because not everyone will be fine playing with someone using it, and the latter because desyncs can lead to crashes and whatnot if they are severe enough.
You'd have to directly modify a couple files since some of the glaive changes are also located in those same files. MHW editor is what I used to make the changes to the kinsect in the Param files. I highly recommend asking on the modding discord for assistance since I haven't modified this game for a while.
hello, first of all impressive, this is an excellent mod, now i had a few question
first of all is, the kinsect seems to not respond wen i call him back, i have to repeat the input three to four times, sometimes, when i do the descending thrust i just bump back up to do another one ? it doesnt happen all the time and im wondering wether this is intentional or not and if so how to use it without it being tied to luck, one thing that disturbs me is the fact that i canbt kinsect drill anymore, it used to be tied to the thrust but now that's is has benn removed i lose a lot of damage from the kinsect, in fact i barely send him out anymore he just does it himself, and it can make me loose a buit of elemental damage on alatreon, any tips on that ?
once again this mod is excellent, no more micro managment of"ho no i have to spend 2 minutes tryin to get the red buff of of fatty head" very good chain combos with bonk poetential(very good ko damage btw wtf ) and infinites that look coll and do damage thank you, an insect glaive enjoyer
My only guess as to the kinsect not responding is due to there being a set delay for the callback that I could not figure out how to change. The descending thrust I had to alter to make it used as a landing attack to transfer between the ground and the air, but the consequence of that is that kinsect coming out and not drilling like normal. If i figured out how to control the kinsect coming out or staying in on a per attack basis i would've fixed this, but i neve figured out how to. There is also a weird bug that happens when you hit certain sloped terrain with the descending thruist thta causes it to activate again on landing. I was not able to 100% solve this either.
The damage isn't really tied to one particular attack. The best way to deal damage with the kinsect is normally passive if you are within melee range, and manually attacking when out of range. Overall the kinsect is meant to boost overall damage a bit as well as deal more blunt and stun damage alongside the marking attacks. To deal straight up damage the R + Tri loops are your best option and the standard attack combos have high partbreak on the final swing.
Sadly I won't be updating this for a while since I've started modding SIFU, but I may come back to it in the future if I find a way to play MHW without it crashing randomly (happens to me in vanilla MHW too).
I play on PC, and I can't seem to figure out how to dodge slash. Is it bound to a control that is only available on controllers, or am I just missing something? Fun mod otherwise.
[Edit] Played with the mod a bit more, and apparently doge slash on PC for this mod is the spacebar. I figured this out after trying to crouch while fighting master rank odogaron to stop bleeding, and ended up dodging into an attack instead.

I don't plan on removing it since the whole point of each buff is to give a situational benefit for a short period of time.
