a lot of mods need love

Sorry Gerrard, I don't speak Russian so I can't do a proper translation for this mod. Mod works, but is out of date as I do not maintain it anymore. Maybe you know a Russian modder that can take it over and translate it.

нужен русский?

mod still works
Vlad the Inhaler Jul 22, 2024 @ 3:28pm 
Mod is done from what i can tell
Conqueror Zen Apr 27, 2024 @ 9:02am 
still works till now. not sure if it has conflicts though, but using a quite a bit of mods right now and no crash. hopefully no conflicts
Madd Llama  [author] Oct 24, 2023 @ 6:29pm 
Yes. I played it a few months ago and it works just fine. Likely if anyone has trouble with it, it is because of conflicts with another mod.

Can this work now
Servius Sep 14, 2022 @ 6:44pm 
You could seek out someone that could take over development. Giving contributor should allow them to update the mod without being able to take it down/make it malicious. Its the only way I have been able to step away from GMod.
Madd Llama  [author] Jan 18, 2022 @ 10:42am 
Since you said please I will be polite. I do not play this anymore, so it is tagged as "out of date" for a reason.

update please

When I played save imports were pretty standard for any mod loaded during an existing save.
Xayc Dec 22, 2021 @ 6:30am 
Correction: Mod works, but save import is needed. If there is no desire to do this, it is better to look towards another mod called: "Military Recruitment"
Xayc Dec 21, 2021 @ 12:24pm 
Mod doesn't work at all. Don't waste your time
Madd Llama  [author] Aug 7, 2021 @ 1:02pm 
@gamenode When I made this it was just basic Skeleton NPC's... no robots.
gamenode Aug 7, 2021 @ 11:54am 
Which skeletons are available? Sniperbots?
Hans Gribber Jun 19, 2021 @ 8:06am 
It still works.
Madd Llama  [author] Mar 23, 2021 @ 9:54am 
@Pete sorry it has been way too long since I have used their editing software.If I remember correctly it is more a matter of importing the mod into their editing software and just cutting and pasting his portion into your own game files. Can't remember if he has any other portion of the mods that tie into him, but should just be that simple.
Noone Mar 23, 2021 @ 7:11am 
@Author could u tell me how to edit urs mod to retain Aegis but remove everything else??
Aegis got my weak spot
The_Cheese_Stands_Alone Oct 11, 2020 @ 4:54pm 
No worries! I'll try loading it in last place and hope that it helps. I appreciate all the work you've done!
Madd Llama  [author] Oct 10, 2020 @ 11:43am 
@Fuzzy no clue where the conflict is in Genesis but you should always load out of date mods last or not at all. Sorry I can't be of more help.
The_Cheese_Stands_Alone Oct 10, 2020 @ 3:45am 
I've been getting random crashes where the screen goes to all of one color. When I try and CTRL ALT DEL I just get a black screen and have to reboot the computer. I've had 6 instances of this since running the mod (also running Genesis and 42 interesting recruits mods), but it only seems to occur when this mod is activated. Any suggestions? Where it should be in the Mod loading order (currently second after Genesis). I really want to run a skeleton army :)
Madd Llama  [author] Jun 29, 2020 @ 1:59pm 
AFAIK it still functions, just a bit overpowered.
BlueNukaGaming Jun 29, 2020 @ 10:34am 
can you update this i love this
Madd Llama  [author] Jun 14, 2020 @ 3:59pm 
@hardbrocklife, I have zero issues with you carrying on this mod. Feel free to run with it. Modding in Kenshi is pretty easy... I taught myself how to do it by looking at the files of characters in the main directory and comparing them to what I was trying to change. Been a while lol, so hard to remember.

Yes, I wish more people thought like that, but like you say it is easier to complain than it is to fix something. Just have to keep in mind that the folks who complain are the vocal minority... out of 22K subscribers I have fielded maybe 10-20 complaints here in the comments. Basically just as easy as unsubbing from the mod if you feel it is game breaking or not immersive.

Feel free to hit me up here on Steam if you have any questions or need any help. Not sure how much I can provide since it has been a while, but seeing how much I love the Skeletons I would also like to see this carry on.
hardbrocklife Jun 14, 2020 @ 10:35am 
Just wanted to say thanks for the Mod, regardless of whether or not you are continuing to maintain it. I love the skeleton "race" as well.

Random question: I know working with Kenshi mods is not the same as coding, but I figured out how to use Twilios API to build a bulk messaging app with NodeJS along with a webhook that prints responses to the console then automatically appends them to a JSON file in a few days with no coding experience(I work with telemetry hardware). Would it be terribly hard to learn to edit a mod like this, and would you mine if I tinkered with it?

There are some things that I would like to change, and instead of complaining to the Mod author over a mod for a game he doesnt even play anymore Id rather solve my own problem and be a part of the resolution(a seemingly rare trait whose lack of adoption confuses me..).
Madd Llama  [author] May 5, 2020 @ 11:50am 
Just remove the mod and reload your game... voila, fixed.
Lippuringo Mar 4, 2020 @ 5:58am 
Feels unbalanced. I'm very new to the game, just arrived in Flotsam and there was 4 free skelly with same dialogue. Don't feel like it anyway fair. Of course when you're in late game it could be nice for shits and goggles, but for fresh start it's just cheating.
Allie Rin Feb 29, 2020 @ 9:03pm 
@Madd Llama Not Flotsam hideout is the flotsam ninja spot just north of the Rebirth slave pits, it's the town where you cna join the flotsam ninjas who are opposed to the Holy nation
Madd Llama  [author] Feb 29, 2020 @ 8:04pm 
Can't remember if that is a tech hunter waystation or not, but if so then yes.
Allie Rin Feb 28, 2020 @ 7:58pm 
I just got three of these skeletons in the flotsam hideout, is that from this mod or was it a lucky break?
Mr.HighGround Feb 19, 2020 @ 1:36am 
A free skeleton squad is too powerful for me!!
ronaldpoai Jan 14, 2020 @ 5:43am 
All works fine after I reloaded the game, thanks for your help!
Madd Llama  [author] Jan 12, 2020 @ 12:06pm 
Nobody has complained of it NOT working, just working too well. If you just downloaded it and are using a game already in progress, you will have to reload your save to get the mercs to populate.

I might eventually download and play this game again, and then see where the mod is at after I do that.
Commissar Dec 31, 2019 @ 5:15pm 
Cool!
Madd Llama  [author] Nov 24, 2019 @ 4:04pm 
Should only be four max, but sounds like an update might have busted the randomization. If I start playing Kenshi again I will fix it, but until then you just need to uninstall and reload your game state.
IAmCalledJay Nov 24, 2019 @ 9:28am 
So I walked into World's End, and 6 skeleton's were free. That's a bit too broken for me.
saxon22 Nov 15, 2019 @ 1:05pm 
true
Madd Llama  [author] Nov 15, 2019 @ 9:27am 
There are, but it takes some work to get a prison set up nearby so you can capture the ones you don't kill... then most end up maimed so you need to get replacement limbs for them. It can be fun, I have done it, but it is also the reason I made this mod lol.
TheBusDriver Nov 14, 2019 @ 9:18pm 
Huh? You ever been to Venge? there are swarms of skeletons running around
saxon22 Nov 7, 2019 @ 12:27pm 
well your right i just made one lol
Madd Llama  [author] Nov 7, 2019 @ 11:41am 
@Saxon22... someone who gets it lol :cozykcdknight:
saxon22 Oct 29, 2019 @ 6:31pm 
thanks now i can start a skeleton empire:steamhappy:
Madd Llama  [author] Aug 9, 2019 @ 11:26am 
Unfortunately I no longer update this mod, but anyone is free to modify it to fit their own play style and mods list.
Pontiff Aug 9, 2019 @ 10:17am 
any chance you can make this compatible with TIHYD_Out on a limb? :)
Nemesis Tigrex Aug 8, 2019 @ 8:58am 
Yeah, same as me i found 2 skeletons hire for free in Squin Town.
It should be can pay money for hire like every hire NPC would be.
Conboy75 Aug 3, 2019 @ 9:29am 
i like this mod but it seems kinda OP because every skeleton (that i found so far) are for free.
Madd Llama  [author] Aug 2, 2019 @ 12:40pm 
Yup Tower of Ninjas in the Border Zone.
Dark3Nesz Aug 2, 2019 @ 11:01am 
tower of ninja's right? if so Aegis did not load in
