@Poplegos For some reason you have to trick the unity software that rtcs are not there. I have sent out the update so theoretically you dont have to do renaming anymore. Hopefully it will get fixed so this confusion doesn`t happen

@dakshthecoder234 You need to rename by rightclicking the file pressing rename and select the letters after the dot.(from RE Faction.png to RE Faction.rtc)
If you dont see the extensions check out the links below according to your system

MAC:

There are tools that can rename multiple files at once. One of which if Microsoft PowerToys, you can find it in their store or on google. I am not familiar with mac so cant recommend anything there.

how do i change the extention from .png to .rtc

Cold War: US vs Soviet Union

@katie.wasilonsky What should happen is once you open the folder in step 2 you should see a bunch of pictures with the name RE Albatross and alike(Basically all png files exept first 2). You need to change their extension from .png to .rtc and proceed to step 3.
Once again I recommend using some sort of tool to bulk rename files to make it faster

@MaestroD i really couldnt do the instructions because i cant find where the .rtc files are

@katie.wasilonsky I couldn`t recreate the issue on my side. Most likely there has been an issue with the file during update. If you followed the instructions correctly try resubscribing to the mod and do the instructions again.
In this case I have made a failsave that didnt work because it was set up in beta. I have found how to fix it but it wont have rarity system and I will try to update it in a couple hours

on the albatross vs chicken config both teams have vanilla vehicles,skins and weapons actually the first 4 configs are good but the rest are just vanilla weapons and vehicles etc

@Poplegos Would you mind letting me know what is that mod so I can check it out. I would need to see the files of it to see how they done it

Cool story, but someone else on the workshop has already uploaded a config with working factions and I'd imagine they did it the old school way

@Poplegos I would love to actually post it without you needing to waste time renaming pngs but Ravenfield developers either forgot or working on updating RFtools unitypackage which allows to publish content to the workshop. Manually adding files results in having a Dissalowed section with all the rtc files in it, I dont know if it will send the files into the game or ignore the them completely when publishing.
Unless there is a newer version I dont know about, I cannot do anything about this. Other methods would still require you to open the mod folder and rename something(like now or a zip/rar file) in order to actually get all files correctly installed.
I am willing to resolve this if you know that adding those files as is would give the result we were expecting.

Ya'll have got to stop posting these as PNGs. You can manually add the files to the staging folder just like we used to do. The PNG thing is just dumb

actual save for me. I was just trying to work on the new rarity system for Vanilla + factions

wish there were some nice vanilla+ spec ops configs here. It's pretty tyring to try search through the already quite big list of base game weapons + the Vanilla+ weapons, to find weapons suitable for specops (tactical variants, with silencers etc.)

@CheckedSh1rt Sorry for the late reply. The collection you are refering to works only for 5 first factions since it was the first edition and most likely outdated. For the rest and you need the Required mods collection and should be below the one you subscribed to. I additionally provided a link to it above the links to maps.

Sry if I am subscribing to the wrong collection

I am sorry if I am being stupid but is it the My Vanilla+ mod collection. If so I believe there is a problem with the mod collection as when i select various pre-made configs from your mod (having installed the collection) they often will have default/empty weapons/skins for example the chicken faction is missing their skin.I know that this is not a problem with the config mod itself but the mod collection as i was able to fix it by downloading the appropriate skins. However i still don't have many mods for the configs.

@CheckedSh1rt The required mods should be below the pictures in the collections by the creator section. If you still can't see them, I will place the link somewhere in the description so that shouldn't happen again

Where can i find the required mod list?

Original scenario I had based their faction on is that Kestrel are their direct competitors, fighting over borders and territories that have been wanting greater autonomy and independence from the commonwealth, except the Commonwealth isn’t willing to lose more ground especially against their new rival. Sanctions held them back but now with the Resource war raging between the two both countries are seeing new doors open with Foreign Military arms manufacturers and advisors flooding into the conflicts as they spark to test new weapons and to make a quick buck off the “Backwaters”

@TREEMUGGER Thanks for the info. I made up original concept for drongos in my head and went from that, now that I have some lore to base a new version on it should feel more complete than the current one.
As far as I understand they are by themselves and have pretty old technology.
I'll rework the configs and keep an eye on the updates in the collection.
If you have any specific things to add let me know

Also yeah Canonically, Drongo’s Airforce is at best stealing from its enemies at worst Using Tech from the late 40’s to early 60’s. This is a common thing in a Nation under embargo for a long time.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3429585487 Drongo’s vehicle Roster. Not final version hopefully

@stephdawson14 I supply configs, sofa made the actual mods that are a part of the configs. If you dont have the mod from sofa it wont show up if you just subscribe to this mod. In other words this is a MODPACK and not a content mod by itself.
Copyright for workshop could be a thing mostly for games like People Playground. In Ravenfield the way mods are compiled and submited to workshop make it nearly or completely impossible to extract the mods and edit them. Unlike Ravenfiled, PPG doesnt have the level of compression to the point where reuploading mods is an issue and you can literally use notepad and paint to modify it. The only type of mods in Ravenfield that are vulnarable are config mods like mine but its generally harder to upload mods to the workshop so you dont see that happening.

aint this already made by sofa? is this copyrighted?

@esj1985 The mod you are looking for is called V+ Weapons Lab Testing. You can find it in Required mods collection, it should be near other weapon mods close to the top

Where can I find the Cardinal Weapon's?

@Tamari I started working on updating the configs a couple days ago, I want to release the update alongside shoebills, their arsenal was a bit off at the moment and I forgot about it(I dont like sendding out incomplete updates), now that I got some motivation to atleast open the game you should see updates popping up now and then. Nice to see that someone still cares about it.

this is my favorite vanilla config, is it still being updated?

@dinikin The photos are all taken from the vanilla game, no reshades and unmodified, with highest quality settings. Some maps have good lighting and others either default lighting or with day/night cycle mutator. For example the storks screenshot uses both the day/night cycle, low health effect and downed blinking effect. You can also use the new Sun editor but I havent tryed it yet

In photos, Reshade or Photoshop?

@DeadGrip I'll try to remake the Required Vehicles collection into Required Mods collection. For now you can go back in the comments and see what links are there. If I cant do it today then you'll have to wait a couple days before I can get my pc back to its functioning state

@MaestroD Some of these I haven't seen in other V+ packs.

@Mikhail Magpies are made by Sofa and you can find Magpies testing in his discord or by using other ways of accessing steam workshop. I would send a link, but idk if I can share it and I am currently having troubles with my pc

so who the magpie's skin?

@DeadGrip The weapons used are mostly V+ Weapon packs. If you are interested about the weapon in the 3rd screenshot its this one https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2081926939

What are the weapons used in the screenshots? Thanks.

fucking legend

Nvm. found them

Btw., is ``V+ Weapon lab`` the actual name for your suggested mod? I don't seem to find it

Ah, thank you, that might be indeed the problem

@Etzel The config looks fine on my end
The only reason I could see is you dont have 2 mods installed:
-V+ Weapon lab
-V+ Base vehicles camo
I have added camo vehicles to the ''Required vehicles'' collection and veapons were there. If the issue is still there try resubscribing. Other then that I can ither update it and hope it fixes it or send you that config as is.

THe mod is a blessing, thank you.

Btw., the eagle vs. cardinal config. is lacking, the Cardinals don't have any vehicles apart from their jeep and barely any weapons whenever this config is selected

@stick
Yeah, you dingus.

THEYRE ALL BIRDS I JUST REALIZED

Children

OWL!!!

the owls are an official faction that hasnt been made yet pretty much

@East ParCo Yes
