has someone taken over this mod ? I think it needs to change its dependency to community framework

instead of D9

miss this working, the luminary belts particularly were great with some of my darkness mods

@moonlightfox: Did you make the non-D9 version of Buckle Up? Is it 1.4 compatible?

Go 1.3 pls

No sign of problems on 1.2, at least for the windforce, luminary, deflector and bandolier belts.

I had to remove D9 Framework because of a mod conflict, but I like the other belts so I'll probably make a local copy of this mod with deflector removed.

I have been using it in 1.2 and haven't noticed any issues with this mod. I have only used the deflector belt though

That's totally fair and understandable. Just wish this mod wasn't one I was lusting after so fiercely. XD

Additionally, I would like to announce that all my mods are currently available for adoption if any talented modders would like to take them. Just message me on discord and let me know what it is you plan on doing with it and I will consider you.

Currently, I'm not sure when I will be updating this or my other mods but I'm hoping it will be soon, within the next month or so. I've had a lot on my plate lately but things are clearing up, so hopefully I'll have more time for RW and modding again soon. Also, once I do start playing RW again, I'm going to have to be very careful to moderate how much I do so because this game has always been a highly addictive vice for me, and I spent the bigger half of a 2 week period playing it when the outbreak started in March.

Will there be an update to 1.2?

CE compatible?

@BoeDankles

The upcoming update changed how belts work. There's now a utility slot, this is where your smokepop and shieldbelts go. The former can now be activated on command. It's also where you put on your new jump pack and broadshield units (like a non-psycast bullet shield).

Just a head's up in case your mod doesn't work with the new update.

Yea pretty much what Hykal said regarding belts appearing on pawns.

As for the automatic lighting, to be honest I didn't code that part, I merely borrowed it so I'm not too sure about the specifics.

Also, I recently started a new job and don't have much time for video games or modding, as such I will be taking a hiatus from Rimworld and modding, I apologize for any inconveniences caused by bugs, new updates, etc. as I will not be able to address them in the near future.

@sawdust

Youll have to learn how to mod it yourself, I assume.

@Hykal

Ah. I see. Thank you for the response. I guess the question now is, how do I make them visible? there are textures for the belts, so I imagine it wouldn't be too difficult to make the textures actually show.

@sawdust

Belts dont show on pawns ever on vanilla, it doesnt show it in the mod either.

I'm having an issue of the belts not visually showing on my pawns. Buckle Up is at the very bottom of my load order, Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, I have the Luminary belt on a colonist, and despite putting it on 'Automatic', it still lights up during the day and indoors.

Hi, I stared a new colony and immediately got an error message that mentioned Object reference not set to an instance of an object, D9Framework, and RangedShieldBelt. I think this is the only mod I have that uses the D9 framework. The full error log is Here. [gist.github.com]
Not sure if it makes a difference, but one of my colonists started off with a smokepop belt.

I just rolled out an update that should fix that issue. Additionally, all these belts except the deflector belt now have a small amount of armor so they can benefit from their quality in a meaningful way.

I don't have Royalty and I get this error. Your previous mod without the psyfocus belt worked for me.

XML error: Could not find parent node named "PsychicApparelBase" for node "ThingDef". Full node: <ThingDef ParentName="PsychicApparelBase"><defName>BuckleUp_PsyfocusBelt</defName></ThingDef>

Just updated: Royalty is no longer required for this mod to be installed, but it is required for access to the Psyfocus belt. The Royalty Free version of this mod is no longer required, and will be removed from the workshop.

Also, I added a switch option to luminary and windforce belts if you wish to turn the lights off, and quality has been removed from belts that don't benefit from it.

Thanks for the tip :) I'll make the correction soon

Create the folder Patches, inside put an xml with something like this:

<Patch>
<Operation Class="PatchOperationFindMod">
<mods>
<li>Royalty</li>
</mods>
<match Class="PatchOperationAdd">
<xpath>/Defs/ThingDef[defName="YourBelt"]</xpath>
<value>
* XML with values
</value>
</match>
</Operation>
</Patch>

https://rimworldwiki.com/wiki/Modding_Tutorials/PatchOperations

just create an empty belt, and if royalty is loaded, then you pacth the belt to add the royalty stuff, and a way to craft it or buy it

@BoeDankles you dont need 2 mods to make it royalty free

Its entirely possible, I've been warned that wearable lights can cause lag in some situations. Personally I haven't run into issues myself, but if its really bad on certain people, I may include a lightless version of the Windforce belt for those who wish to use these without the lights.

i think the light effects lag the game, but it might just be the lag of a heavily modded years old colony

You just made my day, thanks!

I've just uploaded a Royalty Free version which can be found here: https://test-steamproxy.haloskins.io/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2093214155

Enjoy :)

Alas that it requires Royalty - I was looking forward to the light belt :)

Huh. Good to know, I think I'll have a look at that one too. Thanks

There's an advanced shield belt mod that includes a ranged belt similar to it, however it has a higher capacity and much slower recharge. I wanted to make something that recharges very quickly but also has a low capacity. This can successfully deflect 1 or 2 bullets without breaking allowing for a quick recharge to deflect again after a brief pause, but will easily be overwhelmed by larger bursts of gunfire. Essentially, they'll block the first couple of hits you take in a fight, maybe a couple more, but once it breaks it probably won't come back online until after the fight.

I mention the advanced shield belt mod however, because the creator of it is actually the creator of the same framework that allows for ranged shield belts, which I used for the deflector belt. So I believe his work is worthy of mentioning.

Nah, it's a modified Crashlanded with 4 dudes :P

The bandolier does sound useful, but I'm most excited for the deflector belt. I've been wanting a ranged shield belt for a while, but I've never known about any good (and at least relatively balanced) mods with them, until I saw this on the RW discord.

Yea, most of them are more late game oriented, but you might be able to get a luminary or bandolier belt decently early as they only require machining. Unless you started tribal that is :P

This looks handy. Subbed, though I might not get to the point where I can try it out for a bit, having just started a new colony.
