New hero icon built into the mod itself rather than pulling from Lando's, this is to prevent icons breaking in any future updates
Bug fixes and tweaks to dialogue
Version 1.5
Rex now has emotes! The four emotes are For My Brother, May The Force Be With You, You're So Powerful!, and Nice Job, Boys!
Version 1.4
Fixed some text errors that were caused by uploading the wrong version of a file. Oops!
Version 1.3
Updated for May 28th patch
Further Text improvements
Bonus Health and Charged Frenzy Star Cards now work for Rex
Version 1.2
Camera position fixed and now in-line with other blaster heroes, thanks to Sabbath! Also, a new optional add-on is included to make the DC-17 pistols sound a bit more like they do in TCW Season 7!
Version 1.1
Further Text and UI improvements. Note, the Wookiee Bowcaster icon has been changed to the Dual DC-17s. This is unavoidable, however if you are running IAI then you will hardly notice.
Version 1.6: General polish and a new built in icon by Deveroux
1.6.1 patch: Fixes corrupted text strings
Thanks go to Greenarmy for fixing the floating pistol bug with the dual DC17s!
This mod adds Captain Rex, complete with spawn theme and custom abilities, as a full new hero character, replacing Chewbacca. Complete with voice lines. Chewie will be replaced on OT/ST maps as well, but as long as you stick to Clone Wars maps there should be almost zero loss of immersion. Rex is fully useable by both the player and the AI. Includes a text add-on to change all the text to Rex's name and fully seal the deal!
Requires Poet's Captain Rex lando replacement to be installed and loaded before this mod in the load order! So load order should be: -Poet's Rex replacement for Lando -This mod -Optional Pistol sound addon -Text addon
Poet's Nightsniper replacement is NOT needed and may cause crashing!
This mod is also recommended and designed for playing with the excellent Instant Action Improvements 1.21, and the included text string addon is compatible with the text changes for the Republic Gunner.
While Rex can't toggle his fire rate like the regular ARC trooper can, his pistols do 70% more damage now, so it balances out. He comes equipped with Thermal Imploders, charged power shot, the Commando's Battle Focus ability to turn himself into a tank, and Han's Shoulder Charge to close the gap and get up close and personal with the clankas. All in all, Rex is a very offensive hero that can do a ton of damage as long as your aim is on point and you're good at dodging incoming fire.
Known issues, which will be addressed soon: -Rex's head is invisible on Chewie's Vandor Heist skin -Text for Star Cards and skin names is mostly unchanged
