Thread recycled, now i will use it to make mod requests in the future, so i don't spam the forums with useless threads.

Recently, i discovered Xenn race got updated to 1.1, however, from some comments, i heard the race itself is way too OP compared to vanilla (and other races?), plus i also heard they can age up to unreasonable numbers...

So, i am asking for a "lite" patch of the mod, removing (or nerfing) it's weapons, armor and life expectancy...

Thank you to whoever reads this! 

I for example have 200+ mods and also have a brother with different mod tastes so that increases even more the list...

but i dislike using steam, plus the automatic updates have the potential to ruin saves...

so i am asking, how do you (non-steam users) handle mods?

or is there a mod i can use to make it possible?
i wanted to make these: https://plazmabursttwo.fandom.com/wiki/PSI_Blades
thanks

Is there a way to make a custom weapon pick up sound?

and there goes their 2nd child...

[*JECSTOOLS REQUIRED*]

*JECSTOOLS REQUIRED*
*This pack is a work in progress, i don't even know if the weapons are properly balanced yet, so give me suggestions!.*
*I did not make the assets in this mod, credits are found on the text file.*
*I am using Plazma burst 2 wiki and Rimworld's gun stats for reference, i want most guns to act like pb2 but stay balanced in rimworld, that means some will not work like they did in pb2 and/or won't be balanced at all, feedback is important.
*I will focus on plazma burst 2 weapons, but there is a chance i may add pb1's guns + upgrades.

Guns in the pack:

* Correction nine:

- C-01r Assault Rifle (blue and red)
- C-01p Pistol (blue and red)
- C-01s Shotgun (blue and red)
- C-02m Minigun
- C-01y Ray Gun
- C-00n Grenades

*Civil Security

- CS-RC Assault Rifle
- CS-Pro Pistol
- CS-DAZ Shotgun
- CS-LitBro Rocket Launcher
- CS-SpamThemBaby Grenade Launcher
- CS-YippeeKiYay
- CS-HShot (uses c-01y projectile until i figure out how to do a rail-like projectile with C#)
- CS-OneSOneK (uses c-01y projectile until i figure out how to do a rail-like projectile with C#)

* Usurpation Forces

- Alien Pistol (uses c-01y projectile until i figure out how to do a rail-like projectile with C#)
- Alien Rifle
- Alien Shotgun

* TCoRR
- Ray Rifle TCoRR

* More weapons coming soon...

This mod should be compatible with other mods/saves, but i am not sure, so report any problems.

To-do:
- Add as many plazma burst guns possible.
- Replace current projectiles. (i kinda did it already)
- Make the current guns look more rimworld-like.
- Add languages.
- Add CE or proper shotguns compatibility.
- *maybe* Create the factions (sadly, i don't know how usurpations and falkoks look like without the armor)

Thanks for reading or even testing my mod!

if you are going to edit, publish somewhere or do anything other than download my mod only to use it on your game, you will need my permission.

I am new to modding and programming in general (and the forums e.e), and i am trying to make my first mod (it actually is going pretty well).

but then i heard about xpathing, and that it is used to make patches and such stuff...
(warning, i may be asking pretty dumb questions.)
yet i don't know why should i use it, isn't it easier to just change a part of the code manually?

should i redo my mod because i didn't use it to change some values, such as damage?

or am i just outdated and it was just required on past versions like A17?

Thanks!
