Default Repair Times in GWX?

Don't know if this has been covered yet-haven't found it so here goes.

I really liked using NVDrifters longer repair times mod but it was not really compatible with NYGM. Has this been included in GWX or is the LRT mod compatible. I know it was compatible with GW and it worked great.

To the GWX - Team Great Job Guys!
To Kpt Lehman - I resonded to your PM-Merry Xmas!

Maybe the Kpt. should explain, but NVDrifters mod is not compatible. There are negative side-effects with GWX, but repair times have been extended somewhat.

On a personal note, considering the increased amount of damage that many of you will be encountering, you probably wouldn't want longer repair times.

HEMISENT, hi. Thanks for the interest in my mod. I am currently working on a version of LRT that can be used with GWX. Not sure when it will be released, though. GWX is already much more challenging than the original GW release, so please be aware, LRT for GWX will make playing GWX SH3 MUCH harder (but hopefully slightly more realistic).

On a side note, I have to say that I am totally amazed at all the work and testing that went into making GWX. I know what it's like to watch that $%#& loading screen over and over while playtesting and tweaking. The GWX team really deserves our thanks and praise. Well done.

Sadly, the fine LRT Mod is not compartible with GWX. We wanted to integrate it in GWX, but one of the *major* features of GWX, the LRG Mod (Long Range Gunnery) is affected by the LRT.

Default Bug in Repair Times?

I find that the repair times in GWX are almost instantaneaous with the giving of the order to repair. Any one else seen this?

I will be releasing Longer Repair Times v1.3 very soon (have to do a little more playtesting). No need to worry.

Yes, it's hard to make LRT compatible without changing some main features in GWX. But I guess the tradeoff is worth it to some players.

However matey it will screw up a major part of GWX, just got the message from Cdre_Gibs Here's the main part of said PM

If people try make a LRT GWX version. As soon as any changes to the crew ratings from true to false, there goes one of the major elements of GWX, the LRG Mod. If the Crew ratings are NOT at TRUE, the LRG Mod will not work as designed.

My personal opinion, I'll keep the LRG mod, it's too much fun.:p

It's a shame that the two can't be used together but you make's your choice and go with it.

Please let's not start another modder's war regarding mod compatibilities. I created LRT to give people a choice. Having choices is good, and using my mod with GWX is voluntary only. People do not have to use my LRT mod if they don't want to disable or change some main features of GWX. I totally understand the concern about features of GWX being disabled in my mod. But there are warnings included in the readme file.

So I will say this... Anyone who doesn't want to use Longer Repair Times with GWX, then please don't. No one is forcing you to. Thank you. :p
