IMPORTANT NOTICE 05.01.2025
Due to changes to game files and mod loading implemented by HG in the experimental build of the game from 03.01.2025, the current versions of mods I uploaded on Nexus Mods (with either PAK archives or LUA scripts) will not work with the mentioned build and most probably upcoming public builds of the game.
New mod files and new installation instructions will be provided once the modding community figures out how to work with the new system and how to port existing mods. This will be further limited by my availability in between my IRL responsibilities, so please be patient.
I will provide no support for individual users trying to get my existing mods working on experimental build or future public releases.
Description:
This mod adds a bunch of new textures (paint styles) that can be applied to Fighter, Hauler and Solar starships in fabricator machines. These include:
Options using default colour palette (bright):
Weathered - a more "dirty" version of vanilla matte texture
Chromatic - a shiny metallic coating with dark spots
Tectonic - a rock-like pattern
Stripes - a nature inspired camo
Options using metallic colour palette (dark):
Rusted - a heavily used plating
Fractal - a hexagon pattern with occasional tinted tiles
Circuit Board - a power grid with occasional shaded cells
-kzzt- - a [[ BOUNDARY FAILURE DETECTED ]]
Options with no colour selection (fixed textures):
Black - a gritty dark texture
Steel - a clean metal cover
Gold - a shiny brushed gold aesthetic
Iridescent - a swirl of blue, green and purple tones
As always, standard disclaimer applies - these new additions to fabricator are visible only to the mod user, not another players!
