Do you know why for some reason with this modpack my hivers no longer have arms while wearing armor

Careful: the mod "Hard labour uses strength" bugged my game out. Strength shot through the roof while the laboring skill is no longer implemented. Not worth imo.

@Lil_Z

These pathing issues tend to happen in Kenshi from time to time, it's caused from the terrain most of the time. You can try doing the usual Ctrl+Shift+F11 to rebuild the navmesh (useful in the Swamps), but in this particular case you can try saving and exiting game to desktop and reloading. This normally fixes these terrain based issues.

Experiencing a weird bug, unable to attack the Inhuman Tracker's hideout, as for some reason there seems to be an invisible wall around the faction HQ's door, they're unable to attack me and vice versa. We just glare heatedly at each other.

@Rudy

That's a new one lol, I'm not entirely sure. It seems to only affect the floor texture from what I can see. Try reinstalling Compressed Textures (or disabling it), and you might need to do the usual stuff like check your drivers, game settings, reverify integrity of Kenshi, and maybe try reinstalling / clearing Kenshi's folder (reverifying will reinstall it from scratch).

I'm not sure what would cause this bug, and it seems to only affect the floor texture in this particular screenshot so it's quite unusual lol.

I installed everything and it seems to work fine except for i got some weird bar textures on the entire screen.
It looks like this https://i.imgur.com/hRyZMq1.png

@Expensive-Paper-77

Lol yeah Skeletons are pretty fun, you should try the Rebirth Skeleton Game Start (Solo) if you ever plan on restarting a game. It's probably one of the more difficult challenges in the very early game.

@ZohnJJ

Thank you!

@Gamergirl55

There's a few different faster Bed Types already in the collection, you might just have to cycle through them once you've researched them.

Worst case scenario, load your mod towards the bottom of the Load Order in the "Miscellaneous" section.

which mod here changes beds healing factor? im trying to use faster healing beds mod and it doesnt work

Just thank you for your amazing job.

I was looking for a new experience.

Best way is to unlock the attributes and play a power fantasy with a skeleton <3

I tried Pinning a New Player's Guide as people tend to have issues in the very early game due to the various changes. I did think about writing a guide myself, but the game is so open-ended that each new playthrough can be different than the last lol.

I always recommend everyone to play "Ironman" style where they don't roll back saves just because the emergent stories can lend themselves to informing what your next moves should be. If you end up captured and enslaved, the next goal should immediately be obvious, then once you escape you can decide to enact revenge on the Slavers, which leads to building up a small group (or an army) and going from there.

I'm glad you all enjoy the collection!

Best to just explore it for your own my guy

Considering the content of the pack changes from time to time, it would be very difficult to have a guide. Larger packs like UWE and Kaizo have them.

Spent 300 hours with this collection and I still find new things around every corner. Has anyone considered making a guide or tips/tricks section? This collection deserves it's own wiki page considering how expansive things get!!

Depends on what replacements. Most can be on people but i suggest finding BPs so you can make em.

I have 80 guys and 4 million credits, so it should be okay. It's finding replacements that will be tough.

I guess you can try and seel the armor but I just suggest preparing for the worst instead

Cause most of my armor is a white box with an X in it rn.

So do I just throw away those missing items? Any way to give myself money for what was lost so I can rebuy it?

You can theoretically use OMO and keep the armor, but there would be a lot of overlap in the mods, so I'm sure there would end up being a conflict somewhere.

It was because OMO's Armors was abandoned and UWE merged it into the mod. Unfortunately, because of the way Kenshi works, it just kinda happens when you remove the mod and import even though theoretically UWE is pointing to the same .mod file (it's a direct merge).

So this is normal? Feels weird that an update would render all my gear unusable? I thought I made a mistake installing.

@Masked

Most likely a lot of the armor mods were taken out and mixed with the UWE mod list.
Unfortunately that means all armor sets there are gone. You'll have to find them again.

Hello,

So I havent played for a few months and updated my game to your latest update. I imported save and a tonne of my armor is missing, helms are missing and a lot of gear has a white box with an X in it.

What happened to my gear?

@Mathev it's a smithing tech. if it ain't showing up maybe reload your game?

thats nice. though the concerning part is missing plate armor crafting research. supposedly it's a tech level 3 research

(I figured out how to make a custom start and patch the stuff! so far it works without breaking your collection)

no conflicts on your end mathev? if there isn't any maybe look into what crafting mods are affected by it

Is there any fix to the "missing Plate armor crafting station" research? I cant find it and i have no clue what to do ( research bench is tier4)

@Dr. Igor Dolvich do you think you could spare some time to look at the additional skeleton mods I added to your collection and tell me if any of those would need a patch from me? I haven't looked much at modding Kenshi yet.

I mostly just want to add every skeleton-related mod, haha.

Good luck on your end expensive.

Found out that adding a few patches do work. Just be aware that an error occurs that says a race is missing when you try to add in patches for tame beasties. It should still be fine but i can't tell what Race is missing.

I decided I'm merging this pack with the big uwe pack and removing the silly and nsfw mods. LET THE MOD BLOAT BEGIIIIIIN

Congratz on 2000 comments! hahaha

I do wonder if since it's already changed, if a New Game would show the fix or not. Either way, I can look into it next time I update the collection and see what causes it.

@Dr. Igor Dolvich sadly disabling those mods and importing didnt fix this. hes still a starving vagrant

If you happen to make a patch that works for the Thrashers, I'd for sure include it on the collection lol. I didn't know they weren't already recruitable (I've never tried).

@Fixer

That probably needs a Tame Beasties patch, there is a comment on the Thrasher mod page which shows how to create a "Pick Up" patch to allow them to be picked up. Although, they'd probably still need a Recruit dialogue package created (ie. Tame Beasties's mod).

Thank you for helping others with their issues.

@Mathev

(deleted previous comment since I broke the formatting lol)

You might need to disable Each Person's Life and Persistent Friendship as these mods are meant to change Character NPCs (your faction) into random nearby factions after you dismiss them, although it seems to inherit this to random NPCs across the map (ie. the Dyer's shop in the HN territory). It could even be a UWE change for all I know, I'd need to look into it more.

Let me know if this works or not. You'll need to Import after disabling those mods.

Got two questions.

Seems like im missing plate armor technology. Tier 4 and it's nowhere to be seen. Any fix for that?

2nd question is about No-face. the guy who was from the gutters faction allowing us to domesticate beak things. Seems that some mod changes him into the starving vagrant faction which i dont like. Any ideas which mod does that?

Anyone else trying to pick up thrashers but they don't work? I was hoping to recruit them but no pickup prompt was avail.

@Lil_Z the teardrop greatsword bp can be in any shek area from my understanding

@Grim just talk to the dog and you can recruit it through dialogue

How do I recruit the poor bone mutt located at the hub?

By the way, is there any blueprint for the teardrop greatsword?

Good luck doc.

Oh and i did some testing on the missing npcs thing. Apparently leaving a pc near the npc location can keep that npc at that location. The issue comes she you are gone as the moment you leave the disappear into the ether. I found importing to help out, especially with big bounties but that can be inconsistent as bounties who stay in place often don't disappear like dust king. But Screamer the False and Ponk can just leave the tower and never return

@Lil_Z

Yeah I believe they carry a lot due to them also being vendors, so they carry their personal medkits (for mending) as well as inventory for sales. This makes them good targets if you wanna play as a Highway Bandit lol

@Fixer

Sometimes those NPCs might be off doing something and will eventually return (ie. Beep, Hamut, etc. ). You might just have to return at another point in the future to find them. Mostly All NPCs have personal AI goals that makes them less static, although they generally don't go *too* far away to avoid dying in some random part of the map lol.

Good point about the Dyer, he might have some generic AI package that inherits the various "do XYZ" functions. I might end up making a specific patch to address this once i get a chance.

Understood Doc.

Also to anyone who had certain bounties and prisoners are missing, import the world with dead npcs off just in case. dunno why they keep leaving. Been wondering where agnu and the thrall brothers were when i visited but apparently the mod that lets people walk away like the dyer also applies to them. Dunno how.

Gotcha. I just wanted to check if the was known. I mean, I'm gonna re-import anyways. But I -did- profit off of it. Menders carry a -lot- of skeleton repair kits, and I'm trying to go through a Shek only playthrough. (Might add -1- skeleton.)

@Fixer

Feel free to use the Dyers Guild which was the previous mod I used for the list. I swapped them out because the Guild buildings are kind of OP and there was an overlap I couldn't quite fix (worked on my end, but 50/50 reported it not working on their end).

@Lil_Z

It's probably with the Gate Guards AI mod , although they close the gate if they're getting raided. The AI in kenshi does weird things at times and even neutral/allied factions will attack things if it's in the way lol. Not much we can do about it, unfortunately. You can remove the mod if you'd like. Make sure to Import

Hey, just wanted to let you know, I've noticed after some time in Squin that the Shek occasionally close the doors, causing other traveling factions to attack the gate. I don't know if this is a problem in vanilla, but it's caused even the Menders faction to get attacked by Shek Kingdom, at least near Squin.
