I hope this will be updated to 1.6. I love this mod!

Do enemies spawn with this? I haven't seen any with the armor yet.

I don't plan on using this myself, I probably still prefer flak vest + devilstrand duster.
I am however subbing, cause I think it will add some additional variation when fighting industrial tech level enemies, thanks for keeping the mod lightweight without any bloat.

Would love a 1.5 update, if possible.

A HD version would be nice. But overall still a good mod.

A good mid tier armor, awesome.
Great for ppl who don't want to install an entire overhaul of Rimworld Extend or Redhorse just for some combat vests.
DaemosZythaer Sep 20, 2021 @ 2:18am 
Awesome idea and nice artwork!

@ShakingBag ask CE devs in CE discord to patch it, should be a piece of cake.
Daemonjax Aug 29, 2021 @ 6:34am 
I think I'll use these textures for plate armor, actually.
Tyrannical_Elmo Aug 15, 2021 @ 12:46am 
@SteveZero but steve. we still want more. We want a flak ops helmet.
PremierVader Aug 5, 2021 @ 11:48am 
Hi there is a mod which I think is called No Gloves No Boots no Problem or something like that which patches most armors to cover hands and feet as well. Im not sure yet if it includes this mod as well. Just thought I would mention it.
ShakingBag Aug 5, 2021 @ 7:08am 
it looks really great, it's a shame that it isn't CE compatible
SteveZero  [author] Jul 30, 2021 @ 5:44pm 
@Tyrannical_Elmo, thanks for the notice, I've added it to the mod's description.

@Posthum, fingers and toes get shot off like with unmodded vanilla armor. I have a separate boots and gloves mod in the works, but for the time being there are a few options already out there in the workshop.
Tyrannical_Elmo Jul 27, 2021 @ 11:58pm 
This mod has been made stuffable in a new vanilla armors stuffable mod :3
posthum Jul 25, 2021 @ 10:50am 
Does this armor cover hands and feet or will the pawns get their fingers shot off like with unmodded vanilla armor?
Sublimieren5446 Jul 25, 2021 @ 7:42am 
this armor would rock in CE, theres a big shortage of useable armor in CE
why are we here? just to suffer? Jul 23, 2021 @ 8:09pm 
mak stuff pl0xxxxxxx
PantherHardraad Jul 22, 2021 @ 3:51am 
I echo Tyrannical_Elmo, make it stuffable! And all the other things he said too!
Tyrannical_Elmo Jul 1, 2021 @ 4:04pm 
I want stuffable! But also more to this mod! Like a spec ops flak helmet and a hardware undersuit or so.
Delta1138 Jun 6, 2021 @ 1:08pm 
Could you make this armour stuffable based on the fabric (similar to the flak fabric materials mod)?

Whilst other's see Fallout I see the mass affect armour. If you added a complex shader with a white stripe it has some N7 vibes.
SteveZero  [author] Jun 6, 2021 @ 7:48am 
I might have used fallout combat armor as one of my references 🙄😁. I didn't name it full flak because none of the full body armors in vanilla have the word 'full' or 'set' in them. And yes, this armor only takes up middle and shell layer.
Hykal Jun 6, 2021 @ 6:11am 
Wow, just what I'm looking for! Gives me Fallout Combat Armor vibes.

Suggestion: Why not refer to the whole attire as Full Flak? Or Flak Set?

Question: I can still wear pants and a shirt, underneath, yes?
SteveZero  [author] Jun 2, 2021 @ 2:36pm 
@Spriggs / Smooth Criminal, if either one of you want to give me balanced CE stats for this armor piece I'll patch them in. I was giving it some thought and I think 12 rHA and 30 mPA would be reasonable to stick with the original objective of this mod as described above. However, the biggest balancing aspect of this armor is its move speed penalty in comparison to the other vanilla armor. CE completely throws this off by factoring weight/mass into the move speed and material into mass. E.g. The best BASIC config (see description for acronym meaning) made of hyperweave and plasteel has a bigger move speed penalty than a plasteel or even steel plate armor... Which makes no sense to me. So idk, if you guys can figure it out lmk.
Spriggs Jun 2, 2021 @ 11:44am 
would love a proper CE patch if its not too much bother, the armor looks fantastic
Regent Jun 2, 2021 @ 11:05am 
*Sad noises in lack of armor in CE*
SteveZero  [author] Jun 2, 2021 @ 7:52am 
@Smooth Criminal, no I don't currently play with CE so didn't bother. However, if more people ask for it I'll make a patch.

@PixiePie, thanks :)
Regent Jun 2, 2021 @ 6:02am 
CE ?
MaxTillentine Jun 1, 2021 @ 9:08am 
Thanks for the answer. Looks like intresting solution to the armor problems. )
S16 Jun 1, 2021 @ 9:04am 
Very nice mod, thank you!
SteveZero  [author] Jun 1, 2021 @ 7:55am 
@MaxTillentine, middle and shell layer like all the other vanilla full body armor. No custom material because I was looking to stick closer to vanilla design.

@SpagootNoodels, thank you for the kind words. This armor is tagged as advanced military industrial apparel. So yes, you'll see this mainly on mid tier / boss pirates/mercenaries and sometimes outlander traders.
Spagootnoodels Jun 1, 2021 @ 5:09am 
Beautiful vanilla art and seemingly balanced according to the description. Will definitely try this!

I'm assuming these spawn rarely on other factions' members and traders, yes?
The Dutchman Jun 1, 2021 @ 4:51am 
Bc its flak armor....
MaxTillentine Jun 1, 2021 @ 4:39am 
What layers it takes? And why not custom material variant?
SteveZero  [author] Jun 1, 2021 @ 12:31am 
@Jirnu, that's awesome. Thanks :)
Jirnu May 31, 2021 @ 10:48pm 
been using it for a few hours, really nice man, and love the art!
