You cannot, they are Lostech and cannot be bought without modding the game.
Mighty Matt May 13, 2018 @ 10:26am 
and u cant get them through salvage

How can you mod them into the shops? They have a Weight Count which none of the other Shop Items have. They don't appear when I add them to the Shops.

And where we can find mods?

You're better off stripping the free Highlander and then modding the number of Gauss/ammo/double sinks you have in your inventory. Its easier this way especially when you dont have to travel everywhere hoping the store has these lostech items for sale.

And no I haven't meddled with any mods or the game files myself.

Did you make them purchasable in the Heatsink folder?
Then you also need to change the shopdef_Components_base_0.json(make a backup in case something goes wrong) to add the double. You need to add this line into the .json

{ "ID" : "Gear_HeatSink_Generic_Double", "Type" : "HeatSink", "DiscountModifier" : 1.0, "Count" : 0 }

Add it toShopdef_compnats_Base_0 After the }, of the normal heatsink and before the { jumpjet should be fine.

Nexusmods or do it yourself as above.

here's what I did, I went into:

Steam\SteamApps\common\BATTLETECH\BattleTech_Data\StreamingAssets\data\heatsinks

and edited the file for double heat sinks to "Purchasable" : true

then I went to:

Steam\SteamApps\common\BATTLETECH\BattleTech_Data\StreamingAssets\data\shops

and edited the file shopdef_Components_base_0.json to add the double heat sinks to the shops.

you want to add:

{
"ID" : "Gear_HeatSink_Generic_Double",
"Type" : "HeatSink",
"DiscountModifier" : 1.0,
"Count" : 0
},

into the file, right after the regular heat sinks. be sure to include the curly braces. you can use whaterver your favorite text editor software is. this makes double heat sinks available in every shop, but they're 100X more expensive than regulars, costing about 500k or more depending on faction markups/discounts.

They should never have included the LosTech.

Or +s on weapons.
Jbickley00 May 13, 2018 @ 11:22am 
Well the + on weapons don't really have people rewriting the code of the game to get them.

I'm probably going to mod out the game too in a future runthrough. I want to finish my first with the base game, but I'm really sick of what they did with this. Most of the stores have nothing in them other than basic garbage I'm already hurling into the fireplace in piles. I want to buy assault mechs, not more trash. It's sad how useless money ultimately is because stores don't sell anything you want. It doesn't matter if you have 50 million bucks; stores have no assault mechs in them. You instead have to find them on the field, 3 times each, to acquire it. Then you have the lostech, which they give you some at a certain point, but no way to replace it or acquire more. If I can never get more than these 6 DHS, then don't bother giving me these in the first place. You dicktease the player into thinking these are actually out there, so they scour every store on every planet and dig through every loot table, but it's never seen again. If you don't want us to get more of them, then don't give us any in the first place.

When I play this again in the future, it's going to be modded out the ass, mainly to put more things in stores. Most of the planets in the galaxy have 0 mechs, like wtf? How am I the number 1 supply source of mechs? Me selling my salvage is putting out more mechs than every store in the galaxy combined. Why can't I spend my giant pile of cbills on assault mechs and rare lostech? Why is my money worthless? Even if it was 500k per DHS, I could fill out a lance. But nope, no one sells them, so that 6 is all you get. F U.

You CAN buy assualts, but you need rich planets from the Major players, so you can only really do it late in or after the story, and they cost a massive amount of cash. I also hear the dev will be adressing Lostech to make more of it available, maybe get the other mechs you didn't get before and + versions.
