The Radar HUD and Jetpack mods need to be updated

[darkdill]

There's a couple of nice mods that I'd love to see receive some updates: the Jetpack mod, and the Radar HUD mod. Unfortunately, their creators basically are out of the modding business.

 

The Jetpack one works for me (might run into a glitch or two), but the problem with it is that there's no customization. Since it was made before MCM came out (I think), it doesn't have any configuration to it. Getting it to work with MCM would be pretty tricky, I imagine.

 

As for the Radar HUD mod, that one just crashes all the time, or otherwise glitches to the point of breaking. It's a shame, because I often find that my compass just doesn't work for identifying nearby threats. Having a working Radar would be really nice.

 

Both of these mods' permissions say they can be modded by a third party if they get permission first. You can probably see where I'm going with this, so if anyone out there thinks they might be able to update these two mods, that'd be awesome.

Actually, adding MCM support to a mod is pretty easy, so long as it was made even remotely responsibly. Assuming a mod has variables used for often used values, or major values in a calculation, it's very easy to tweak it with an MCM menu.

 

I actually just follow the MCM guide every time when making a new menu. I find it's the easiest way to not make a mistake, and I can set up a menu for a mod in a couple hours.

Love the new Radar mod you put out. Way better than the old one. :)

 

Unfortunately, I dunno what sorts of variables are used in the Jetpack mod, but it seems to work fine as is. I actually modified mine slightly so that the Jetpack looks like another piece of equipment (didn't care for the bulky look of the jetpack).
