Annihilator: Where is it?

[(GI Joe) Stormcrow]

Been rooting through the mech folder and I am not seeing the Annihilator and many of the new rides. Found the BW Warhammer and Marauder but none of the others. Anybody else found them?

You can find those two because they're part of the base game. Expansion content is rolled up in asset bundles.

Expansion mechs are kept in asset bundles and not editable

I get that. I just want to get the chassis data like its shown in the other file(s). Thinking about starting a BS game with the new rides to get a feel for them.

oh that's not a problem just look at the proper naming scheme and edit the files or get the save editor and add them

Notepad++ is a good light IDE alternative.

By the way, it seems the file is too heavy to be opened with Visual Studio Code, so Notepad++ might be a safer bet.

On Linux, "vim"/"view" works fine, although it's not as practical to select and paste an entire json.

Or you could just go to the GitHub that HBS published all the DLC JSON files to and get anything you need from them there (including the mech and chassis files)
