Knightsleeper's, Deceptive & Stolen Mods. They don't do what he boasts, and uses many Mods that aren't his, and doesn't give credit. His Mod doesn't change any of the games Core, or Scripts. It's just eye-candy, and nothing more.

TAKE ON MARS - REBUILD GAME MOD

This game was never really completed by Bohemia, but they left lots of room for the Modeling Community to correct, and/or fix things up, and they really shined here, and have done a fine job in doing what the Dev's left out.

A good selection of Mods make the game complete, and I had no issues then, and it's just as playable today. I run the game on the "Test - Direct Studio-to-Steam Build" version, NOT the Standard Version. You'll thank me later.

I like Building, Grinding & Survival games. I also enjoy Discovering & Learning, and this game has it all wrapped up into one, and it's one of my favorite grinding games. Plus I love anything to do with space as a subject matter.

This game is a lot of hurry up, and wait. Things don't come quickly. That includes Building, Making Resources & Walking. Lay your cables straight, and as flat as possible to the ground, and avoid rocks. Don't walk with your head looking down. Always look straight ahead, or a little above. This will prevent you from tripping, and damaging your Helmet & Suit. Unless it was my own fault, I seldom trip. The game works fine for me, you just have to learn how to play it, and familiarize yourself with it's mechanics. Patience is the name of the game.

People that complain about this game being broken, are simply not reading the information provided by others that CAN get it to work. If it were broken, then I wouldn't have over 450 hours of enjoyment, now would I?

I play on the "Test - Direct Studio-to-Steam Build" version. All Mods have been tested for several hours under different circumstances, and work on my computer, or I wouldn't show them.
