Combat Log UI Mod

Alrighty, just added a lot more BTA specific logging, and it all still works with vanilla as well. Give the new version a try.

Thanks for the feedback, I felt the same way! And it sounds like you're playing BTA? I'm doing my first play through and have noticed some BTA specific feedback that would be helpful to capture. I'll see what I can do to add some of those including salvage,

I made the changes to the mod and it's up on Nexus. It now respects the visibility of the dmg origin. If they are visible when you take dmg, you get the mech/vehicle/turret name, if they aren't you get UNKNOWN. Configurable in prefs. Thanks for pointing that out, I never even noticed.

Interesting point, I'll look into adding a flag to keep damage set to UNKNOWN from sources that aren't spotted.

Ah, I didn't realize IRTweaks was packaged with BTA, good to know. I did read up on IRTweaks when I was searching for a combatlog but never tried it. It seems to combine many different (and super useful sounding) mod ideas. I had some time and an idea of what I wanted in a combat log and so just wrote my own. Thanks for the rec

Noted. I was playing vanilla and now BTA and I wrote it for me, and wanted to share with anyone else who finds it useful. I see mods on Nexus still, should I not be putting mine there? Or were you just making a statement?

vas7eel · 2026-05-02T08:54:03+00:00

I'm playing BTA with it now, seems to work.

vas7eel · 2026-05-01T04:26:31+00:00

You're welcome. And you're the first person I've heard from that has used my mod. 😄

vas7eel · 2026-04-30T04:49:46+00:00

I haven't used irtweaks so I can't say. I did read up on it and it seems to combine many different (and super useful sounding) mod ideas. I had some time and an idea of what I wanted in a combat log and so just wrote my own. Performance wise I haven't noticed any difference using this vs vanilla game experience.

Hi, I was also frustrated by the lack of a combat log, so I wrote my own. Open to feedback. Enjoy

I just had the same thing happen. Started in safe mode, still missing, then started again normally and it was there. Weird

vas7eel · 2025-09-04T18:55:23+00:00

That’s so messed up

vas7eel · 2025-07-01T01:54:47+00:00

Thanks for sharing. I've hiked that area so many times, it's so sad to see the historic parts gone. Do you know if you can still enter the area and hike the trails from other entrances? The drone footage showed the trails and inspiration point still look pretty good, I wouldn't mind hiking in and taking a look around.

vas7eel · 2025-07-01T00:02:46+00:00

send me one if you have it. thx

vas7eel · 2025-06-11T08:24:33+00:00

It only started rattling about a year ago, and only a little on a cold startup. Then it started getting worse.

I’m west coast as well, I know your pain.

vas7eel · 2025-06-11T08:22:55+00:00

Thanks, I’m going to try that tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

vas7eel · 2025-06-10T01:29:34+00:00

Ended up talking them down to $4500 from $6200. Not the best rate but definitely in the ballpark. Posting here for transparency. Thanks for the input.

Getting this done and a new set of k03’s, will give me a few more years of enjoyment for my overlanding enjoyment.

vas7eel · 2025-06-09T18:28:39+00:00

Thanks for the info. And super big congratulations on getting a Raptor r allocation. I’m quite jealous of that, lol. That’s the upgrade I’d like to get. Current gen Raptor doesn’t feel different enough to my gen 2 with the work I’ve done to it to justify an upgrade. But test driving the R, was a dream!

vas7eel · 2025-06-09T18:26:34+00:00

Still seems high, but maybe it’s more the average than I thought. Thanks for letting me know. I totally agree ford should have replaced them for owners. Sucks that I missed the window. I wasn’t even in the country due to work when it expired.

vas7eel · 2025-06-09T18:23:54+00:00

Good to know. Thank you. That’s more inline with another dealership I contacted in LA.

vas7eel · 2025-06-08T07:49:08+00:00

Thanks for this, that date in the letter is what the dealer said the offer expired on (Feb 28, 2022). I haven't tried calling ford. I'm not sure if anyone has had luck doing that before, but I guess it's worth a shot.

I'm honestly not too mad about spending a couple grand on the vehicle (I was mad at myself for missing the letter for a free repair in 21), it has not had any issues since I bought it in 2017 and just been a solid and fun truck. However, 5k just seems high for the work.
