📋 About This Mod

Give any armor a different armor passive, at the game's own values. Press F7 (or Back + Start on a controller), pick your armor, pick its new passive. One passive per armor, no stacking, no value editing. Requires Bingus Shared Loader.

Passive Swap - Armory Forge Lite

Nexus edition of Super Earth Armory Forge, uploaded with Nexus staff approval. Vanilla passive values only: no stacking, no value editing.

Give any armor a different armor passive. Wear the armor whose look and stats you like, and pick the passive it should have, e.g. Med-Kit armor with Siege-Ready.

How it works

  • []One passive per armor, exactly as the game ships it: the values are copied from the game's own data for that passive, so nothing is stronger than in the base game.[/]

    []No stacking and no value editing.[/]

    []The swap applies to every armor that has that passive. Use Armor Transmog for the look you want.[/]

Install

  • []Install Bingus Shared Loader (see Requirements).[/]

    []Add the zip to HD2 Arsenal (or your mod manager). There are no options to pick.[/]

    []Start the game and press F7.[/]

In game (F7)

  • []Pick the armor passive you wear, then the passive it should have. "Original" puts the game's passive back.[/]

    []Each passive shows what it does and which armors carry it.[/]

    []Presets: save your swaps as loadouts; F9 switches between them without opening the panel.[/]

    []Controller: Back + Start opens the panel (D-pad, A select, B back, LB/RB tabs).[/]

    []Search (Ctrl+F), undo (Ctrl+Z), change the keys in the Keys tab, resize (Ctrl + / Ctrl -), drag the panel by its top strip.[/]

Notes

  • []Some passives have effects the game ties to their own armor (e.g. Adreno-Defibrillator's revive); those may not carry over.[/]

    []Swaps are saved in %LOCALAPPDATA%\CowboyBingus\Helldivers2\ArmoryForge\loadout-swap.ini[/]

    []Problems? Post %LOCALAPPDATA%\CowboyBingus\Helldivers2\Logs\ArmoryForge-STATUS.txt in the comments.[/]
