Changes made for VRO
Ships

  • The Gharial battleship (this mod) is now the Copperhead Battleship
  • The Fulmar battleship is now called the Raven Battleship
  • The Centaur Mk2 is now the Aamon Battleship
  • The Argon Manticore Frigate is now the Enenra Frigate.
  • The Kea Gunboat is renamed to the Egret Gunboat. This is so that it doesn't conflict with the Kea in Axesface's Mod
  • The ATF Valkyrie is now the Freyr
  • The Xenon R is now the Xenon J as the R already exists in the Rise of the Ossian Raider mod
  • The Xenon V is now the Xenon F as the V is already in the VRO mod
  • The SVE Viper is removed as VRO already includes a Split Missile Destroyer called the "Viper" using the exact same hull.

Balance Changes

  • L and XL ships have all had their hull dramatically increased and speed/manueverability decreased.
  • The Cockatrice and Atrox prices were reduced to bring them more in-line with their VRO counterparts.
  • Wares adjusted accordingly to best match VRO balance
  • S and M ship hulls and speed are adjusted where necessary for VRO balance.
  • Ship Weapons and Missiles now configured with VRO tags.
  • Split Caiman and Taipan each have a single HighPower L Turret group.

@Bladnmnr - Assuming the parent mod supports it, then yes this one will as well. Unlike the 6.0 update, there aren't going to be any major changes to 3D models, so both the vanilla and VRO mod should work.

Balancing will be updated based on 7.0 changes and VRO changes
will this mode goes to support 7.00 version?

the copperhead mk1 you liberate from xenon space, for some reason its weapons will not fire at all, Ive swapped them out for different weapons but still nothings shooting. Other ships work fine

@Killzad - as per the parent Mod, that ship has no blueprint and is one of a kind

Hi. not sure this is part of this mod but found the Coperhead Mk 1 which is more powerful than the standard one. Anyway i did try to reverse engineer it and the message came as "Blueprint: null" so i guess it has no blueprint but the ship is lost. now is there a way? to get it back in my save or i have to roll back my save which is i don't know the one that i have is maybe 100 hours back that still has the ship. Any suggestions?

@RGGStriker07 - One of the required mods for this is Ship Variation Expansion by Luca. That is the Vanilla Parent mod to this. All this mod does is balance that Mod for VRO (and renames some of the ships for compatibility with other mods)

Hi again I wanted to ask if there will be a non-VRO version of this because I love the Aamon and was hoping it can get a more wider variation for it but over all much appreciate this :D

@Witch ~ Yes you do. This is just a VRO patch
Witch ~ Jan 22 @ 4:06am 
do I need to activate the non vro version?
EagleDelta  [author] Jan 16 @ 7:56am 
@RGGSticker07 - you'd need to look for other mods that add weapons. This mod doesn't add any models, just updates the SVE mod to be VRO compatible.
