requested by gurvemeh on discord.

this is a beta, additional testing is required,

Adds helmet-bound armor passives matching the associated armor set, for example if you equip a helmet attached to the democracy protects passive the helmet inherits the passive at a reduced rate visible in-ui at "25%" some passives seem to only work partially or not at all but some are quite difficult to test, this has been tested a good amount and i can assume most traditional passives work fine like running siege-ready light-armor with a true-grit helmet is pretty fun with the HMG or stationary reload guns, or equipping certain helmets for +1 stim or grenade (rather than the +2 you get on bodyarmor)



Another fun thing you can do is with armors that grant effect negation like the killzone or fire / gas themed gear you can really get a huge resist% not full immunity but its pretty fun and rewards you nicely for sticking to a certain playstyle more than the current body-armor only system does, least in my opinion.

do I put this first then armor transmog on top? because I had Transmog first then this and it didn't do anything.
transmog is included with this mod, delete your transmog that is separate.

bingus v16 was used for testing, downgrade if it does not work.

also armorperk stacking, shodans editor, among other armor-related mods do not work with this.

if it does anything to armor passives expect it to not be compatible at this moment in time, i wll use this comment to clear the air regarding compatible and non-compat mods if possible.

This is something that should've been in the game from the very beginning. I know it may take some fiddling but do you plan on implementing the transmog to the helmets as well so we can have one complete armor set that looks the same but has two different passives on either piece?

Oh yeah another thing, this mod sometimes causes the game to close incorrectly and an even rarer chance to BSOD me for some reason.

Truly a great one, though I have the same issue as the other guy, the mod drops my FPS a lot. Not shure why, but if gets fix - best semi balanced armor mod out here

thats really weird i'd look to the loadorder and more demanding mods, this one i've had complaints about but BSODs are just a thing with hd2 now on pc sometimes it wont close normally especially for me anyway or i'll close the game via the quit game option and it'll "crash" then i need to open steam and force-stop it.

Same issue as the others above, after a couple of games it will start to stutter and if i close the game and reopen it, the game is prompt to end up hard locking with even more fps drops before that.

pc hardlocking is a notorious thing regarding specific pc configurations on helldivers across the board, how do you narrow it down specifically to my mod?

It would be definitely nice if the helmets could transmog as well. I know there's an existing mod that applies bonuses to helmets and capes as well as being able to transmog them but personally I find it a bit excessive. (if you're curious, you can find the link on the downloads page of the original transmog mod on nexus)

Being able to transmog these more balanced helmet would be great

Sir, this IS a peak, finally helmet got the effect for improvement.
But there is a greedy request or just wondering if the helmet also had the transmog like the armor? or just allowed to change the passive?
Planned, not implemented yet

虽然这可能不是您模组的问题……但它会和nexus上的“First Person Perspective-HD2”冲突。
Although this might not be an issue with your mod... it will conflict with "First Person Perspective-HD2" on Nexus.
