Super Earth Armory Forge
Stack any of the 32 Helldivers 2 armor passives onto the armor you wear and set every value yourself, live in game.
Languages: English · 简体中文 (Simplified Chinese) · 日本語 (Japanese)
In game: F7 → Keys tab → Language / 语言 → 简体中文 or 日本語. Passive and armor names use the game's own official names in each language. Web builder: click 简体中文 or 日本語 at the top right.
Tip: set the game's text language to Chinese (简体 or 繁體) or Japanese so the game's font has the characters.
Install
1. Install Bingus Shared Loader.
2. Add the zip to Arsenal (or your mod manager). There are no options to pick. Install one edition only.
3. Start the game and press F7.
Editions: the full edition (stacking, values, stratagem presets), the Armor Only edition (the same without the stratagem presets) and the Passive Swap edition (Nexus Mods). A HellForge edition is also available on GitHub (not yet tested in HellForge itself).
In game (F7)
- Tick any passive to stack it onto your armor; values change live
- Plain values: type 75% resist, +30%, +50 armor
- Knows what you're wearing: the box at the top shows your armor and its stack; click it to jump to that tab, or to add it
- Armor weight: make a passive's armors light, medium or heavy (speed, stamina, armor rating), or only the armor you're wearing; the look stays the same
- Every armor: one stack that follows you to any armor you wear
- Recipes: named passive combos (Medic Tank, Ghost, Demolitionist, Gunner, Survivor, or your own); Add to stack or Only this
- Presets tab: Kitchen Sink, Tank, Stealth, Survivor, Demolitionist, Gunner, plus your own saved loadouts. Randomize button for a random loadout, just for fun
- Stratagems tab (full edition): save your four stratagems from the Hellpod loadout screen as a preset and put them back with one click; a quick-swap key cycles your presets
- F9 swaps between loadouts without opening the panel
- Rebind the panel key and the quick-swap keys: click Rebind, then press the key you want
- Undo (Ctrl+Z), Copy code / Paste code to share builds, presets and recipes; Compare view shows what differs between two builds
- Several armor stacks at once (e.g. Med-Kit for tank, Siege-Ready for gunner)
- Edit loadout.ini while the game runs: save the file and the mod picks it up within a couple of seconds
- While the panel is open the game ignores your keyboard and mouse: no shooting, turning or clicking the armory behind it (Keys tab: Blocked / Let through)
- Guide tab: how to use it, step by step, and every key, mouse and controller control
- Controller: Back + Start opens the panel (D-pad, A select, B back, LB/RB tabs)
- Panel size 80-200% (Ctrl + / Ctrl -), sharp on 1440p and 4K
- Drag the panel anywhere by its top strip; it remembers the spot (Ctrl 0 resets size and position)
- Long lists scroll: mouse wheel, the scroll bar, or PageUp / PageDown
- Keys tab: change the keys, the language, the mascot and the input blocking
- Ctrl+F searches passives by name or effect
- A little astronaut mascot in the panel; its eyes follow your cursor (Keys tab turns it off)
- Status file (ArmoryForge-STATUS.txt) shows what the mod itself costs per frame, for lag reports
Prefer a browser? Plan a build in the web builder (English / 简体中文 / 日本語) and download it as a mod. It's optional; F7 does the same in game. An offline copy of the web builder (opens from disk, no internet) is on GitHub.
NEW in 7.6: the new armor passive Stationary Shroud (35% less aiming sway, 15% quieter movement), and the Offline Editor (optional download)
A small Windows window for editing loadout.ini as text, no internet needed. It edits that one file only: not the game, not its archives, not other mods. Validate uses the mod's own parser, so a pass means the mod accepts the file and an error names the section and line it rejects. The F7 panel and the web builder edit the same file, so you can mix them.
How to run it:
1. Install Python 3.10 or newer from python.org. Tick "Add python.exe to PATH" in the installer (it includes Tk, which the editor uses). Check with python --version in Command Prompt.
2. Extract Super-Earth-Armory-Forge-Offline-Editor-v7.6.0.zip somewhere you can write, for example Documents.
3. Double-click Run-Offline-Editor.bat. If the window closes at once, open Command Prompt in that folder and run: python offline_editor.py (it prints the error).
4. Open your current loadout (the editor offers to) or press New. Double-click a passive in the list to add it at the cursor.
5. Press Validate.
6. Press Install config. It backs up your old file, then saves to %LOCALAPPDATA%\CowboyBingus\Helldivers2\ArmoryForge\loadout.ini. With the game running, the mod reloads it within a couple of seconds; no restart.
7. Something off? Restore config backup puts the previous file back.
Updating from Passive Picker v4
This is the same mod under a new name. It updates in place, and your F7 edits and saved presets carry over.
Notes
- Single-player / private lobbies only. Don't use it in public matchmaking.
- The stack applies to armor that has the stack's passive (Med-Kit by default). Use Armor Transmog for the look you want.
- Effect names are inferred from the game (it only stores hashes); ones marked ? are guesses.
- Adreno-Defibrillator's revive likely doesn't work when stacked.
- Stationary Shroud (the game's newest armor passive) is new in 7.6. Its values are from the wiki (35% less aiming sway, 15% quieter movement), not read from the game; its concealment-when-still bonus is not included yet. Japanese shows the English name for it for now.
- Your loadout file and share codes are the same in any language, so loadouts move between languages unchanged.
- Not working? Keys tab → Copy problem report, and post it here or open an issue on GitHub. (Or %LOCALAPPDATA%\CowboyBingus\Helldivers2\Logs\ArmoryForge-STATUS.txt)
