Can we see CE paint mod in action?

Post by mr.WHO »

Can we? for now the only visible effects are the screenshots of Discoverer with several colors of hull stripes.

What do you mean by "in action"? As I said in another post, a paint mod consists of a set of attributes, such as colour and... well, some others that I won't disclose at the moment. You choose a paint mod and the attributes are applied to the ship. There is no "action" to see other than the results you've seen in screenshots.

Well then by "action" several screeeshots of same ships, same angle but different attributes would suffice.

Might just have to wait till release i doubt they want to show it off.

Plus everyone will get the ability to use it as a mod will probably made day 1 to make it available for everyone to use not just those who preorder.

I doubt it. Most respectful modders will not do this period.... This also makes paranoid devs who will stop releasing on GOG till no steam exe and modified, etc to our game.

Rebel Galaxy Outlaw's approach. Your move, guys. :D

I realize this is super overkill and I'm 100% not expecting it in X4, but you gotta admit it's badical.

Well the thing is CBJ, One of the main (at least for me) selling points of preordering the game is the Paint Mod. And no one but you knows what it actually is. What exactly is Egosoft selling us? Why would I want to preorder the game not knowing what Im buying?
Just... another... bug.

Thats the weird part yes but apparently Egosoft wants to announce that at a later day. The announcement sequence is a bit off.

Hmm, I on the other hand don't care about that paint addon. With a game so open to modding, we will have dozens of paints to choose from within few weeks, or even days after the release ;)
The addition of the two upcoming expansions in the CE is another thing, this is what made this choice a "done deal", at least for me. Well, other than that I wanted to support Egosoft, money is the main motivator in every industry, let's not fool ourselves. Fingers crossed 8)

You only get the paint mod as a preorder and it is the only preorder bonus on top of that.
AFAIK the CE is not limited?

so it is customizable (so it's more like Warframe pattern which I can color myself), or the attributes are set in the mod and it applies only one specific color/pattern?

Also which picture please? Normal vs paint?

Yeah, from my understanding that's exactly the case. As for limiting CE sells, dunno if Egosoft would go that far. Physical package is one thing, but limiting your own sales on digital channel, probably not.
