wooohooo! first Izumi's Floral White Mage and now this? this has to be the best week ever for Skill Mods

[@prophecy13]

This mod is amazing man. Seriously makes Warrior feel so much more fluid and visually appealing.

[@maj0ga.]

This literally looks like it could be a completely new job, looks amazing!

[@Radio_Active369]

This is the first one that felt like I was seeing a completely new job. Very well done and very, very cool.

[@TheQaaz]

Square needs to hire you, I'm so serious, that is if you do not already use your talents for work already. This pack could have been a job on its own; amazing work.

[@justcallmescott6421]

im gonna miss this during the mod apocalypse hopefully its easy to fix! very nice work! as well as your other works theyre all really goood!

[@DanDoesDnD]

man, i hope you eventually get to all the classes, id love a samurai mod like this!

[@rubisco_biscotti]

Best vfx modpack i've seen so far in this game. Holy shit.

[@torstenfraser4950]

This looks sick and the skill names are on point! I especially liked "Latency Check" as Arm's Length XD

[@asheliahollows7491]

I caught that too! That, Reprisal being "Spread Malware" and Interject being "Reboot Command" were 11/10!

[@legosharks4367]

will we possibly get a update to the mod so that the icons and beast gauge work with DT?

[@DiLied]

yes. After I finish RPR project

[@SuikodenGR]

@@DiLied ty :3

[@Mei_Marian]

you are the reason i play warrior

[@Altoryu]

Nice to see it finally finished though have seen a few animation bugs where least on the basic combos, the animations might not always fully play. Not sure if it's cause my character is a Hroth or not but figured something worth mentioning regardless.

[@DarkOmegaZero]

could be that you're either not lvl 90 or that your skill speed may be too fast? i know my brother picked up the dmc dante mod for dark knight, some of his animations dont necessarily play all the time because of his higher skill speed

[@Altoryu]

@@DarkOmegaZero I'm level 90 definitely and I haven't spec'd into skill speed so dunno if it's just the gear I have or something else

[@DarkOmegaZero]

@@Altoryu hmm i dunno, havnt downloaded this mod y et personally but it certainly could be the gear. perhaps i'll give it a go myself and get back to ya

[@Altoryu]

@@DarkOmegaZero Well been playing around with it more and it seems to still be causing issues. Not sure if it's just both conflicts or such but the last hit for heavy swings last hit doesn't play. Moreover have noticed it's also conflicting with my reaper mod too where the reaper's Guillotine animation which both it and this mod borrows from doesn't play at all.

[@meian9865]

This and your RDM packs are incredible. Your work is amazing!

[@ChoJun69]

im not gonna lie, i kinda want to come back to FFXIV and just try this out, got this randomly linked from my FFXIV friends i played together, this looks phenomenal, wow....

[@AdamEl-Jefe]

This is really good, but you should change "Cyber Demon" to "Cyber Daemon" it fits the coding theme better

[@lasorcieredenovembre695]

Square-Enix should hire you YESTERDAY. Wtf is this, it's so amazing O.O I. Love. It. Sooooooo. Much.

[@midnightmidnight5775]

Жесть ты апгрейднулся. Большой респект. Выглядит интересно, почти нет никаких претензий, за некоторыми исключениями. И то, это только моя личная вкусовщина.

[@edn01987]

welp somehow this predict the new job lol. still very cool visual effect here though I really like the design.

[@abrarfarhan9344]

awesome work! this is amazing :D just to clarify, do we need to get star of the nezha lord from the mog station store in order to get the aura to work?

[@DiLied]

you can use glamourer plugin to equip it

[@EdernFGC]

Is that Samurai LB3 for every Fell Cleave? LOL

[@Waverse]

I get this recommended to me, after the new job anouncement... Ok KZbin

[@DiLied]

play Viper early!

[@Rotomoo]

Looks more Cybernetic than Primal. Primal sounds like it should be dirty fighting with nothing but pure strength, this is more elegant and futuristic. Still an amazing mod nonetheless, the name is my only critique :P

[@DiLied]

that's just a series name. in lore wise I would call this - Omicron

[@Rotomoo]

@@DiLied ah didn't know it was part of a series. Thanks for letting me know, I'll check out the others, thanks :)

[@fleur1514]

Is this safe to use? I heard that if animation lengths differ from the original it gets flagged by the system. really pretty otherwise

[@DiLied]

it's connected with animation lock on movement abilities like onslaught or primal rend, which are the same as the default ofcourse

[@lootmaster1337]

awesome pack overall, is there a way to lower the inner release a bit and remove the helmet thing? while i love the effect it kinda blinds during combat. id also lower the post animation on fellcleave just feels way to slow especially on 5 fellcleave rotation part, personally id use the nascent chaos fx for fellcleave but i'm not sure how to change it. Hope you add options to enable/disable certain skills at some point in penumbra to make it more useable in higher content (will 100% use it for dungeons tho)

[@hwaitinghoshino]

Fantastic! Well done!

[@asayushix]

hey man, did you forget to upload Inner chaos vfx change into the pack? :) For some reason it still use OG animation instead of changed one

[@DiLied]

I haven't updated WAR yet

[@Cassadia-bx7nd]

May i ask, what gear to replace for the cyber set? star of nezha? also, idk if i did something wrong, but i can't get the hud to be like the skill in the vid.

[@DiLied]

nezha is for gear vfx. the gear itself is not a part of the mod. for HUD you need to set WQHD/4K UI settings. You can find it in game System Configuration - Graphics Settings - UI Resolution Settings. don't forget to restart the game after that

[@Cassadia-bx7nd]

@@DiLied yea, i just figure out how to do all that last night XD. ty for answer thought

[@Mikocchiuwu]

yo been wondering cuz I dont seem to find any resources online that upfront, how could I get my hands to work on a tp mod? been wanting to do smth custom for myself for a while ;;

[@sheogallvoidgazer2423]

Do the icons only popup if everything is enabled in default collection? The animations are awesome but is it possible for me to just keep them on myself while still retaining the new icons/job hud? XD Edit: OOP nvm, am struggling with icons still- that solution only worked on a different mod but not this one for me T T

[@nhalalevee8196]

Hello. Im really amazed by your work with the warrior skills, i love scifi very much and this "Omega War" is very nice. Tho for some reason for me the ui and skills icons not changing. Wanted to ask, what means "Default Collection"?

[@DiLied]

collections are used in Penumbra plugin to enable specific mods on your character or all the rest. You can find guide for icons\hud issue on my discord server

[@nhalalevee8196]

@@DiLied Thank you very much. :)

[@nhalalevee8196]

[@dillydallyyyy]

Hi! I love this mod, is there any way to make the sword vfx not appear?

[@DiLied]

Choose Disable in weapon option tab

[@dillydallyyyy]

@@DiLied hmm, when I do that it removes it from working with the bronze axe, I was hoping it would also remove the blade's vfx on every attack as well

[@dillydallyyyy]

otherwise I love the mod, thanks!

[@FireFrost838]

how do I get the cyber aura working? Can't find anywhere where it says what gear it applies to.

[@Setuaro]

I love the general aesthetic of the mod, sadly not my thing, seeing & hearing reaper animations/sfx on a weapon like that causes some sort of error in my brain xD

[@Altoryu]

So just an update I have talked with Amonillus about the animation issues between their mod and yours and it seems to be Hrothgar specific, they tested it themselves and found that out and by changing the mod of job actions to others it made the guillotine animation work again on their mod. I can send the clips they sent me if need be to just let you have more visual evidence of the issue.

[@DiLied]

thank you very much! fixed it right away.

[@Altoryu]

@@DiLied Thanks for getting on that so fast, I'll let Amon know and if you need anymore info about it I can show the convo I had with them about it.

[@DiLied]

@@Altoryu I guess that's not necessary. I think I'd missed proper racial skill variant when I packed the mod)

[@Altoryu]

@@DiLied I'll test it tomorrow and let you know how it goes

[@Altoryu]

Tested it out just now and that's fixed it definitely though it still causes issues with the Guillotine skill on Amon's Reaper Mod. However they gave me a test mod that changes the animation code on their mod and now both seem to be working fine

[@SethValentine100]

This mod is AMAZING, but my only issue is I can't get the custom icons to work, even when I follow the instructions...

[@harry_gehrsack420]

would you update this mod and the others with dawntrail?

[@DiLied]

sure

[@ladyellen7993]

This is AWESOME. you should definitely be proud of your work

[@redhollar97]

The class gauge isnt working :(

[@DiLied]

enable in both default and personal collection, restart the game

[@alessandrocolombo991]

No joke but SE should notice you and fuking hire you for new content ideas. This things looks amazing!

[@Tani_the_drunk]

Great mod, but the weapon stays the weapon I'm currently wearing. I use "others" for Default and my personal collection. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Edit: Got it now, ignore it!

[@EvikWang]

One of the best vfx mod I have ever seen, and tbh this quality of work should be paid for, not free. I would be absolutely buying it if the price is around $10~20. The only thing I find not very user-friendly is that the overall effect is a bit too bright. If the white light could be dimmed a bit or replaced with a light blue, I think it would be easier on the eyes.

[@TheUnhappyPotato]

Hello i dont know if this is the place to ask, but id ownloaded the mod and its amazing, but for some reason all the hud elements ar emissing and i still have them in vanilla

[@DiLied]

enable icons and hud in default collections if you use penumbra, set hq UI is System Settings/Graphics, restart the game

[@XMegaJuni]

YOshi saw this and said lets make Viper

I'm trying to change the Cyber Blade from being Bronze War Axe to Minos Replica. I tried replacing the models with TexTools and it doesn't work, The Bronze Axe model prevails, and in Penumbra the Item Swap Tab doesn't have a Weapon change tab. Anyone knows what can I do?

[@DiLied]

why not just use Bronze Axe? it's not that hard to obtain

[@Kenmei_N]

@@DiLied It's just a matter of not wanting others to see I'm using a bronze axe, but the Minos Replica I use always. It's something very minor, it most definitely won't stop me from using the mod :D

[@DiLied]

@@Kenmei_N well, if you want to put someones mod to another item, you have to do it yourself) export the weapon VFX, add metadata to Minos Replica if it doesn't have one, recolour blue channel of Minos Replica Normal texture exported by Textools, collect it all in one modpack and you are gucci :3

[@Kenmei_N]

@@DiLied I'm not so well versed in these things, but I'll see if I can do some things with Penumbra and TexTools. I'll look into doing those 3 steps you said: i) export weapon vfx; ii) add metadata to X weapon; iii) recolour blue channel. If it's too difficult I'll try with another simple axe, not Minos since it has a lot of effects. Many thanks, friend.

That's gotta be the most advanced VFX mod I've seen technically speaking. Awesome work!! And if you don't me asking, how did you learn VFX modding? I really want to get into it and although I've had moderate success toying around in VFXEditor, there are still many, many features I can't quite wrap my head around just yet. Is there any place I can visit that goes a bit more in-depth than the wiki does?

[@DiLied]

www.youtube.com/@sortofarbitrary6688 www.youtube.com/@Pixillated I've learnt a lot from these channels. There is also Students of Baldesion discord server and othere servers where people can learn from each other. The modding community in ffxiv is great.
