Mercs Wear Armor
This mod replaces Merc and IMP character model appearance presets with something that makes more sense for a battlefield. I also prioritized character clarity to stike a balance between the readability of battles and the tone of the game.
Some Mercs like Fidel are unchanged, I don’t think they would care about ballistic protection much.
Unchanged Mercs are:
Fidel
Grizzly (Has armor probably)
Larry (Character design makes sense)
Raider (Has armor)
Scope (Has armor)
Shadow (Has armor probably)
Smiley (Makes sense he wouldn’t have any)
Steroid (You need to 3d model by hand to give him armor without getting rid of his muscles, and he’s probably too arrogant to wear any)
Wolf (Has armor)
Scully (Gave him some pants, but he’s probably too cocky to wear protection)
Thor (Chakra protects him, but got him some boots)
Ice (Strikes me as a "It’ll be fine" type, gave him new pants, one of the best characters imo)
Expect some clipping. I tried to avoid or hide it best I could, but not for all of the animations.
– This mod should work with any other that doesn’t replace original Merc or IMP appearance presets.
– This mod works with existing saves.
