Hidden Alloys – crush your enemy!
TL;DR With this mod you can research all weapon and armor techs instead of relying on quest rewards. Mod works as of game version v1.5.13 with Tempest dlc (see ‘known issues’ at the bottom).
Mod unlocks technologies for research for Tier 2 Hyperium, Mithrire and Tier 3 Titanium, Glassteel, Adamantium, Palladium, Hyperium, Mithrite weaponsarmorsaccessories to ensure that you’ll get all items instead of relying on random quest rewards.
This mod is EXTENSION-type (should be fully compatible with other mods). AI also can research these technologies.
Titanium & Glassteel:
– Tier 1: Era 1 (vanilla)
– Tier 2: Era 2 (vanilla)
– Tier 3: Era 3 (unlocked by mod; techs ui is in Era 2, but can be researched only in Era 3 and at cost of Era 3 techs; this ui workaround is needed to keep mod extension-type)
Adamantium & Palladium:
– Tier 1: Era 3 (vanilla)
– Tier 2: Era 5 (vanilla)
– Tier 3: Era 6 (unlocked by mod; cost is 30% of Era 6 techs; researching doesn’t count towards scientific victory)
Hyperium & Mithrite
– Tier 1: Era 4 (vanilla)
– Tier 2: Era 5 (unlocked by mod)
– Tier 3: Era 6 (unlocked by mod; cost is 30% of Era 6 techs; researching doesn’t count towards scientific victory)
Iron & Dust items are not tweaked in any way.
Known issues (as of game version v1.5.13 with Tempest dlc):
– if you exit game in the middle of researching, the game doesn’t save that research progress, so you’ll have to start over with that particular tech.
FOR MOD CREATORS:
I beleive that we are like family in this community helping each other to create richer experience of the game, so you are free to use my code in any non-commercial mod in the way you see fit. However, it’s a good tone to mention my name and a link to this mod, as the original. Ty very much, let’s make more gifts (read mods) to the users.
