imo this mod is superior to the one in description

For some reason it seems the visors are a weird blue-ish texture color and not the normal texture.

You already know that I find a special connection to the ODSTs, so thanks again for the mod, and keep up the good work.

Glad you kept this mod around. I find the item bloat from all the different Halo mods really annoying, especially for what's mostly just minor variations on an item (ex. adding a little doodad).

seconding what Turmoil says: there is a quality in non-massive single issue mods

actually I am glad you kept this mod as I do like ODST troops better than the Spartans.
plus i'm glad I don't have to worry about being bogged down by helmets that I would not use

nice one !

@Nigel Thornberry That's great news. After seeing you start on the Reach Helmets I didn't want to badger you to for a special request of attachments that this mod already had. With no real way of contributing to everyone's efforts, I try not to add to the Christmas list of demands and requests.

@Mr.Bibbles
I am planning to do attatchments as of last night, they will be added as upper and lower face props, however my other mods have to come first, (Armor Weapons). If baking soda doesnt return when i finish attatchments on my reach helmets he has given me permission to work on his mods in his place. So the ODST armor / Marines armor come to mind off the top of my head. whenever thats done if im not dead on the floor somewhere and no other modder has taken the task, ill be doing reach armors.

Still prefer this ODST Helmet because of the attachment variants.

It doesn't seem like Nigel has any intention on porting over the reach helmets with their attachments. Is there any chance you'd be willing to update the textures to this helmet's attachments. I've noticed that shadows and lighting don't effect them in the tactical portion.

I mean, I still prefer this mod since it includes the attachments.

fair enough, cant wait to play whit the emile armor

Oh, I knew about those ODST helmets, I just wanted to be able to apply the stripes to the different helmet variations.

Is it possible to add the colorable stripes to the helmets? I'm recreating the ODST squad from Halo 3: ODST and there's no way of telling them apart except for the stripe (And body armor)

Any chance of an open-faced Reach Marine helmet? I love this mod :)

every time i look at your screenshots makes me wish for the armor even more T_T

Well even if I wanted y'all to donate me, I can't. I use 343I assets and I did nothing but port it along with a few rigging. Being appreciative is good enough.

do you have a Patreon or something a long those lines ?

Baking Soda, I, personally, don't view the Reach Helmet pack to contain a better ODST helmet. Yours comes with the accessories where his only has the base. NOT shooting down his work. I just prefer yours for the helmet variations.

Shite the ODST BDU looks bloody amazing! Woot! Can't wait and use all the time ye need Concentrated Baking Soda ! Keep it up!

Oh

Actually kinda like Sharkface. If you get my meaning.

Oh you mean like Dutch right? From Halo 3 ODST. Im actually surprised you asked this since I already have something like that on my upcoming mod.

Dont ask for the release date because holyshit there's alot to do.

I feel like an ass for asking for anything. But I was wonderfing if there could ever be a Shark maw pattern on it... Maybe? Pls?

Aint nothing new :/

Ah. Feel free to look on my screenshot.

@Concentrated Baking Soda

Man, please show an update :)

will make moar odst helm variants in the near future?

@Dukhat That only affects Voicepacks and other mods that don't add any models right?

Please fix the RAM usage issue with this mod: https://www.reddit.com/r/Xcom/comments/48lqpt/modders_please_remove_this_ram_issue_that_the/

Well. like I said. I'm doing Noble Team armour as a set only. Someone else is doing Reach armour.

@Concentrated Baking Soda, Are you also making Halo Reach Armors with posting kat's armor? Or was that the other guys?

@Concentrated Baking Soda That's Kat's armor correct? It looks fantastic.

Oh fuck. I was meant to say he was doing Halo Reach SPARTAN. Not Marines. Me and Grimhart are doing Marines.

Count Grimhart and I are working together, that is correct. I frequently give him an updated version to let him test or update it.

@Concentrated Baking Soda
Great work on the MJOLNIR armor!

I am a bit confused by who cooperates with whom on these mods. Count Grimhart has recently posted pretty good Reach ODST screens...which is smth you worked on together previously if I recall correctly.

Well. Seeing how my marines would take sometime. I decided to make a side project, so you can enjoy something in the meantime.

@Concentrated Baking Soda
Do you have any sneak peaks on your progress?

Dunno if you have seen this, but this reddit thread shows how to get rid of unecessary files in XCOM 2 mods that only make it harder to load:

https://www.reddit.com/r/xcom2mods/comments/48c8v3/psavoicepacks_and_other_mods_to_a_lesser_extent/

If you have already, then just ignore my post :)

My manslaves prefer the term manservant instead. Makes them sound more human and worthwhile. I just think they're being picky though.

When my manslaves return from their lunch break.

When is the next release? :[

Ahh. thank you for that. I'll have a read

Hey. I'm posting for broadcasting volume to mod authors I'm subbed to, in case this applies to you and you haven't yet fixed the Memory issues inherent to many mods due to a ModBuddy error: https://www.reddit.com/r/xcom2mods/comments/48c8v3/psavoicepacks_and_other_mods_to_a_lesser_extent/

Please double check if this bug in ModBuddy may apply to your mod to help modded X2 games run better.

Are there any plans to open up the upper and lower face props slots? Cheers :D

I knew you wouldnt give up on it.
You have an ODST avatar and youre making an ODST addon.
Someone with ODST PASSION like you wouldnt just give up unannounced at the very least.

Aye, sorry if I seem like I had given up on XCOM 2. Time constraint is really tight for me.
