📋 About This Mod

Brings the classic Summoner / Thor to the Inner Sphere as a highly detailed model and custom cockpit. The model is both modeled and textured by the talented Alan Yeoh. Link to Alan Yeoh's work here and if you want to give him a tip, here's his Paypal to donate to: yeohkheren@gmail.com. Thanks a million tons to Templar Vandalos for the guidance and tutorship with rigging and animating. Thanks to Cszolee, Silby, Ayakos, Lark, KodiakJ, Rumia, 42and19, MagnumGB, Will1971, BEAR, Coyote. and the whole CAB crew for helping with everything else, I couldn't have done it without their expertise, and thanks to cszolee79 for helping out with the YAML stuff! And of course a billion thanks to Alan Yeoh for making such an amazing 3D model.

You can easily add the mech to your savegame by getting the mod Mech Delivery
