Run it, point it at your BattleTech install and let it do its job-it may take a few hours, as this mod expands the game from around 30GB to nearly 80GB.īattleTech Advanced lives up to its name and then some.
First make sure that you’ve got a clean install of BattleTech (BTA has so many moving parts, anything extra would likely cause conflicts), and then grab the installer from the BattleTech Advanced site here. Setup for this mod is surprisingly simple, given how complex the end product is.

There are three massive overhaul mods available for BattleTech, but given that a campaign with any of them is likely to take you dozens of hours, I’m only focusing on one, which I feel is the most polished and coherent of the three: BattleTech Advanced 3062. The big one The must-play community expansion mega-mod There are of course plenty more options over on Nexus Mods to let you customize it to personal taste, but really, what you’re here for is the power of running a real mercenary operation, right? A dropship loaded with heavy weaponry, a mountain of salvage awaiting at the end of every operation. You can skip it after a while, but not playing it at all is nicer. Skip Intro – For some reason the game runs the intro animation every time you play.

Unofficial BattleTech Patch – Smaller and less comprehensive than it sounds, but it fixes a handful of old bugs that still plague the game to this day, the nastiest of which was the Brace order (telling a pilot to hunker down for a turn) not properly cooling down a mech. Once you’ve downloaded Modtek above, just download the Performance Fix, unpack it to your Mods folder and you’re good to go. BattleTech’s load times and general optimization were never the greatest, and patches and DLC didn’t make things much better. Make sure you run ModTekInjector.exe at least once or it won’t do anything.īattleTech Performance Fix – Less quality-of-life, more technical essential. Doesn’t do anything by itself, but you should follow the instructions to install it before anything else. You could play strictly vanilla with the DLC, but here are the small mods I recommend: Vanilla quality of life modsīattleTech Mod Loader/Modtek – A fundamental package required by a lot of BattleTech’s mods. The campaign is the smoothest way to learn the complexities of mech tactics, and the more sandbox-styled Career mode is much expanded thanks to several new mission types and several ‘flashpoint’ mission chains, adding some campaign-like scenarios to punctuate the daily laser grind. If you’re a newbie to BattleTech or are coming back to the game after a couple years, you could do a lot worse than just reinstalling and taking a stab at the game with all its DLC and patches. Previously a pre-order perk, there is no good reason to buy this.

The one thing not included in the Mercenary Collection is the Shadow Hawk Pack DLC, which is a single skin for a single mech that you’ll probably barely be able to see in most situations. Urban Warfare: Multiple flashpoints, urban maps, a new mission type, ECM tech & new mechs.Heavy Metal: One more flashpoint, eight new mechs, eight new weapon types.
Flashpoint: Several story driven ‘flashpoint’ mini-campaigns, new mission types, new mechs.If you must pick and choose, the three DLCs add: While most smaller mods don’t require them, and there are modular components to make individual DLCs not required for some of the major mods, the three add-ons each add notable features that I’d consider fundamental to BattleTech as it stands today. Where you buy the game is of no concern, as all mods are hosted externally. This includes the base game and the three DLC packs that made up the season pass. For the purpose of modding, you’ll probably want the Mercenary Collection version of BattleTech, available (and frequently discounted to around the $25 / £20 range) on Steam, GOG and lots of other smaller storefronts.
