[MOD] Variety and Rebalance Overhaul (VRO) 4.x

[Shuulo]

Linux, Beta with VRO 2.0, game froze twice when viewing a Paranid vs HOP fight, only way out is to kill the main() process. I can provide logs, also have a save of right before it freezes, usually takes a few seconds to kick in. I am not close to the fight, just far enough away to see some shots. Game is only about 2 IRL hours old.

Not 100% sure it isnt another installation problem on my end but I think I have 2.0 (it doesnt have a lot of description text and has a 0.1 in the extension list in game) and I still cant target the medium missile turrets.

No, if you can't target m turrets you don't have 2.0, your installation may be bad. Are you on win 7??? There is a known problem with it.
Also with 2.0 you need to start a new game, old will not work.
Also, try to unsubscribe from it in steam, and delete vro folder in extensions, then install vro beta as described in first page

Checking out BETA. Noticed that Argon Shield MK2 is worse than MK1

Thanks, fixed, tel S shield had the same problem, also fixed.

I LOVE your mod! dogfighting feels so much better now! Only issue for me is very bad performance. I have 9900k and my fps drop to 25-35 during big battles between factions. I hope game devs can do something about performance in upcoming patches.

How much the difference is from vanilla?

I haven't played vanilla for a long time, I find it boring. I play with Faction Enhancement mod. With that mod I get 50-60 during big battles

What i also noticed:
1. The captain of the ship i was flying myself kept on saying "awaiting orders" a couple of times.
2. I saw a freighter "stuck" and flickering for a while before it got back to normal (it was near me in the same sector).

All of mentioned bugs are known 3.0 beta problems, nothing to do with mod.

Ok never had those issues with vanilla. Sorry.

They are quite rare I'd say, the first one is somehow connected to how you enter your ship, I saw this happening one or two times.
The second one I encountered ones when was testing 3.0 vanilla.

Tried out the test release for beta 3.0. All faction shipyards and wharf seem to require ore and silicon, and none have storage for it? Not sure what's the story there, or if it matters in the grand scheme..

[Shuulo]

Change you are describing is impossible with VRO and is not intended, there is nothing changed in regards to shipyards or warfs in this mod, it seems you either have corrupt installation or other mod that changes something. Or you have either Linux or Win 7 that does not work good with loose file mods.

[tylitalo]

Okay then, let's try this again.

Fresh install of X4 on windows 10.

Fresh start:


No other extensions installed:


Version 2.0 of your mod:


Jackrabbit run for Argon prime, and scanned enough of the wharf to see the storage:



Again, I don't know if this matters. It was a statement of what I saw and I was curious. I wouldn't post something like this without testing it a bit.

[Buzz2005]

its new beta probably, but as you see its storage is 0/0 so even if it looks like it needs it, everything works as before

[tylitalo]

Thanks That's kind of what I figured. I was curious.

[Shuulo]

Ok, tbh, I never checked the storage of shipyards in beta, as I never thought there will be somehting wrong with them. If they work just fine than it doesn't matter really.

[tylitalo]

Cool. Yes, they seem to work properly. I thought it was causing production to hang for a bit after 20ish hours, but that was a normal problem, hull parts or something.

Too high speed for ships and big weapons, but it's just my opinion)

Making ships fast and making weapons fast was one of the mod goals.

Also, OPEN BETA is now updated for B5

Quick spelling issue.
When buying weap[ons from the HOP the Fusion Accelerator is spelled Fusion Accelertor.
