"Odyssey Shuttle Skin-Job"


lets you change the appearance of your Passenger Shuttles via a Skin Switch gizmo (using pre-loaded skins/textures). That's essentially the whole mod... Have fun...

If you want to know more:

1. This mod comes with a skin preset collection.
2. There are also a few additional features that seemed useful in context.
3. Furthermore, this mod was designed with the intention of making it as easy as possible for users to use their own skins/textures and even add entirely custom shuttle types.





Thanks to some modders who were kind enough to lend their shuttle skins from other mods, "Odyssey Shuttle Skin-Job" comes with a skin preset collection that can be used immediately via gizmo. My special thanks therefore go to the following modders:

💖 seobongzu -> SRTS Expanded retexture.
Which is a retexture for Шашлычник ;р's SRTS Expanded (continued) as continued version from Smash Phil & NECEROS's SRTS Expanded.





💖 S.Angel -> SRTS Expanded: The Crimson Fleet (continued)
and SRTSE: The Star Fleet (continued).
While you can still find the original SRTS Expanded: The Crimson Fleet by Ravvy, it seems like the original Star Fleet mod vanished totally.






💖 Dylann -> Mandalorian SRTS ... cause, this is the way





🚀 Skins originating from RimWorld and its DLCs themselves.
("Spacedrone" / "Mechanitor Ship")







All built shuttles receive two gizmos, for "Restricted" and "Full Rotation" Skins.
Skins can be selected per shuttle and are persistent.



Since some skins/textures don't really look like a proper shuttle, the mod also offers the option to fall back on a lighter shuttle type referred to as the "Flyer". The "Flyer" is unlocked by the same shuttle research, is less costly, but also less powerful.

Due to laziness ...
For testing purposes ... I have currently only added the base Flyer and this "Sparrow" skin myself.
Maybe I'll manage to contribute some more skin sets of my own in the future.



All skins that would be better suited to a lighter shuttle type are therefore assigned to the "Flyer".
If you do NOT want a Flyer shuttle type, simply deselect it in the mod options. In that case all available skins will be reassigned to the standard Passenger Shuttle instead.
In the mod options you will also find the ability to deselect individual skins as you see fit.





"Odyssey Shuttle Skin-Job" was also created with the idea of making it as easy as possible for players to make their own customizations - even if some fiddling is unavoidable.
The mod also allows you to add further skins and even entirely custom shuttle types.
Anyone interested in doing so will find an AddOwnSkinsAndShuttles.txt in the mod folder - which you'd have to visit anyway - explaining how to go about it.





All my content and mods will always carry this notice:





Possible To-Dos:
- Better Gizmo Graphics.

- Adjustment of preset skin resolutions (?)
(All textures were taken over with their original resolutions).

[Future target size is ~500x500, which seems sufficient and reduces the mod's mb size by more than half.]

- Skyfaller Textures for Preset Skins (?).
- _m Masks for Preset Skins, to make them paintable (?).
- More Skins (*sigh*).
- DMS Shuttles (?).
- Improving Workshop Page.
- Get rid of the feeling, that I forgot sth... :/ hm
