Imma be honest with you I didn’t realize there was an update with new armor until you said that!
I loosely plan on doing every armor but I’m manually replacing the textures instead of doing it in batches with automate so it takes a little longer to draw. A lot of the spill over color parts of the armor make it difficult to just replace the color pallet. I will do Hexolite armor first though!
Hell yeah! Thank you! Not just for doing the Hexolite sets, but for the care and attention to detail in forgoing an easy tool in favor of honest craftwork!
Also, if you do armor stuff, what do you think the possibility is of sometime down the line, maybe looking at a Metroid armor set? It honestly lends itself real nice to the armor variants in Palworld. Heat resistant armors would be Varia, cold resistant armors would be Gravity, and normal types could be Zero Suit.
Adding in new armor sets is far outside the realm of my current skills but I appreciate the confidence! If you mean making other color varients of the Plasteel armors I could do that! If there's enough interest in any idea I'd be happy to do it.
I just checked and nobody has updated the manifest for texture names yet so it looks like right now nobody is sure what the texture for the new Hexalite armor is called. So until that's found I can't change the texture but I'm sure in a few weeks someone will figure it out!
Heyyo! So I've been doing a little pokin' around, and found out that, apparently, Hexolite armor model is Plastic002 and the item itself is RFArmor at least based on the little bit of hunting I did.
Oh s#*!! It blended right in with Plastic001 I didn't see it when I went looking for new ones. Thank you!
Do you think I should make a Lightweight Plasteel version? There is already one on the nexus but I kinda want one that's all black with white emission lights. Thoughts?
Personally, I'm a black/red kind of guy, but yeah! Lightweight hexolite would be awesome to have as well! I'm right on that level cap, so I can get all the armors, and I'm sure there's a lot of others dancing with the cap as well.
But thinking in regards to what people might want, I'd say black armor with a few different options for highlight colors would be really nice. Red, blue, green, purple, yellow, pink, maybe in a couple different brightnesses. I know that's a lot of options to consider, but maybe something like ModConfigMenu would allow a happy medium between the work involved and player customizability.
I still haven't had enough free time to actually get my hands on the armor in game to test the armor mod I made... I finally figured out how to get the nightsand so I don't think I'm that far away now. Sorry I've got A LOT going on in life right now and I've got very limited free time where my brain is also free of enough stress to actually code & draw.
Hey, it's no worries at all! I know some people can be really demanding and entitled, so I want to make sure I didn't make you feel rushed. I totally understand the whole vibe of having a lot on your plate, especially when it comes to managing headspace and staying sane. I haven't been using mods a lot lately because my PC is the ENTIRE bootysauce, but I'll run it again just for this.
I see it dropped, so I'm definitely gonna grab it!
But I just want to say thank you for your work and your passion. I know y'all don't get half the love you deserve considering how many of us use these mods y'all make. But it IS sincerely appreciated.
I didn't make a light plastic version because another talented artist already did that and I didn't want to step on any toes. I made myself an all black version that feels like a stealth suit but it is literally all black because I just turned down the brightness and color on the original armor instead of actually re-drawing it like I did with my other mods. So it's not as good quality...
I may polish it up and re-draw it and post it if you think that would get some downloads? I assumed nobody would want it because there already is a black light plasteel mod
I tried (briefly) but I can't figure it out. I am very new to drawing in 3D, I'm like a journeyman at photoshop but I'm a novice at blender. Do you know how? Or do you have a good tutorial for how to make xMOG mods?

I don't want to interrupt existing projects, but is the Hexolite armor set in the works?
I went will all black and red lights...

Here's the link to the Lightweight Hexolite Recolor which has links to the others and the helmets!
