🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

This is the deprecated YAML conversion of the Savage Wolf MC-MKIV mod for MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries, originally by Offai aka gomgom50 and converted by Trueg. It adds the Savage Wolf mech to the game. The latest version is now included in Trueg's mod, so this file is outdated.

✨ Key Features

Adds the Savage Wolf MC-MKIV mech to MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries.

✅ Pros

  • Solid track record: 478 endorsements and 10,654 downloads show it was well-received.
  • The YAML conversion makes it easy to integrate with other YAML-based mods.
  • The original author and converter are both credited, so you know who to thank.

⚠️ Cons

  • Deprecated since April 2022 — you're better off grabbing Trueg's updated version.
  • The mod is specifically for MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries, so it won't help if you're on a different game.
