[WotC] Mass Effect UT-47 Kodiak Skyranger Replacer

This mod replaces the Skyranger with a model of UT-47 Shuttle from Mass Effect: Legendary Edition.

Includes support for robojumper’s Skyranger Skins with following skins:
– Systems Alliance
– Cerberus
– Cerberus (Normandy markings)
– Batarian/Mercenary
– C-Sec

Includes loading screen support for up to 8 soldiers/SPARKs.

Includes icon/graphic replacement on the Strategy layer

Replaces drop animations with those used by Advent troops, as Kodiak has no attachment points for fastropes, and its interior is much too cramped to support vanilla Skyranger animations

Does not affect pre-rendered cutscenes, for obvious reasons

Not compatible with any other Skyranger replacers

Might run into issues with mods editing the Avenger Armory, but should not be gamebreaking

Old Skyranger shows up/Kodiak looks broken
Once again, I did not test it with every single mission, especially the heavily scripted ones. If old Skyranger still shows up outside of a pre-rendered cutscene, please be so kind to point out the mission in the comments!

Drop animations look weird with Templars/custom soldiers/certain modded weapons
This is an issue with Advent drop animations. I’ll try to fix it in the future, but no promises

Soldiers clip through Kodiak’s rear engines during the walkup/walkoff in the Squad Selection screen
Unfortunately, the model’s dimensions don’t allow for a clean and simple fix of such an issue. This is probably here to stay.

EA/Bioware for publishing/developing the Mass Effect series

Cavily for Alliance Trooper armor seen in the screenshots
Lord_Poncho57 for ME weaponry seen in the screenshots
robojumper for developing Skyranger Skins

And me, Scout Trooper, for converting and reanimating the model, doing my best to set up VFX and implement it in game
