The Ghost Ship: Chaos is now playable on PC! [Release]

UPDATE 0.8

Laboratory (Virus Area) finally has functional Chaos spawns! Note that some enemies may spawn at a slightly different position than in the original Ghost Ship: Chaos, this is because else a bug would occur that the spawns would not proceed correctly.

Spawn trigger on the Observation Deck was moved to the Elevator in the north once you get close to the weapon case so that you cannot fight inside the Elevator anymore, as intended offically by Capcom on Ghost Ship: Chaos.

is it possible to get 3 super rares itens on trinity bonus using this mod?

UPDATE 0.9

-Most missing enemy shaders have been fixed (thanks to wilsonso's SPKG Tool)


-Text for the Stage now changes accordingly (The Ghost Ship / The Ghost Ship: Chaos) ENGLISH LANG ONLY

-Text for weapon Tags now changes accordingly (because negative Tag stats are removed if GSC is enabled !before starting the game!) ENGLISH LANG ONLY



-All Lv50 weapons have the stats that a [BW] weapon would have

Dark yellow just happens when rarity calculation exceeds purple. It doesn't have an effect on stats.
Yes all Lv50 weapons have BW stats as in (Firepower, Capacity, Rate of Fire) and of course Tag penalties being removed, tho thats global for all Levels atm as it was the only possible way currently, these stats however don't affect rarity calculation.

The chance that an Lv50 weapons drops from GSC is 6%, playing on default GS the chance is 2%.

No problem and sorry, I'll try to make it as clear as possible.
Feel free to skip the long version as it dives deeply and just read the short version.

Long Version:
I'll dive deeply into the game's hidden mechanics here. Okay so the weapon name color is essentially just an indication for the player to know how rare a weapon is, but the color indication itself (rarity) has no effect on stats.
In a previous update of this mod, I intended that weapons (such as the Drake "Lindwurm") could have rarity color beyond purple, on Consoles, this would be orange ( with 7 Slots ).
While the PC version is able to display a color beyond purple (dark yellow, because a pointer for e.g. orange doesn't exist) in the inventory screen, it does not display on the drop screen. In an update before I fixed a bug where you would get an "empty" weapon on the drop screen, which was basically nothing, such an "empty" drop could have been a dark yellow Lindwurm for example but on the drop screen the game just considered it as invalid and therefore it was just nothing.
Its not possible to drop a dark yellow weapon as of now. (Unless you manually change a weapons properties in the inventory screen) If you get a maxed out Lindwurm now it will drop correctly with purple color.
But it does not matter, because its just a visual indicator.

Here's how the color (rarity) calculation works in this game:
Rarity Color = (0/1/2)Base weapon rarity + (+3(consolesonly)/+2/+1/0) SlotNum drop + (+0 No Tag/+1 Tagged/+2 Rare Tag) Tag drop

Rarity Values: 0=White | 1=Yellow | 2=Green | 3=Blue | 4=Red | 5=Purple | 6=Orange(Consoles) / Dark Yellow


Example: The Drake has a Base rarity of 2= its always at least green, it also has a base Slot count of 5 means on PC with +1 SlotNum drop the max slot count is already reached and +1 Slots adds +1 rarity so now we are at 3 so its blue now, now lets add any Tag other than rare to it this adds another +1 to rarity, now we are at red, lets make it have a rare tag "Lindwurm", this will add +2 to the rarity, now its purple, thats it for the PC version for now. Now lets go to the consoles, we have a 7th Slot available here so +2 SlotNum drop is possible for this weapon, this also adds +2 to the rarity and with all other parameters as before we're now at a total rarity of 6 which is orange.


Alright, thats it about color calculation, so lets talk about BW weapons etc.
BW weapons or special weapons in the console version are essentially just Lv51 weapons, they are set as Lv51 scaling inside the game files and are also displayed as Lv51 when viewed on RENET. They are just indicated by a changed blue icon inside of the game. Aswell as having a 7th Slot thats it about them already. And of course the negative Tag penalties being removed for them.
Inside the game files for the SlotRate on consoles there is also another entry for a +3 Slot drop for these weapons, e.g. on PC(vanilla) the L.Hawk can only have 4 Slots max (2 Base Slots + 2 SlotRate drop), while on consoles it can have 5 Slots max as BW because of the +3SlotRate drop. Same mechanics go for weapons that have a higher base slot count thus allowing them to have 6/7 Slots. Orange is also only because of there being +3SlotRate on consoles.
With this mod tho, its possible to get an L.Hawk etc. drop with 5 Slots on PC.
I just applied the Lv51 scaling to the Lv50 weapons on PC with update 0.9. So the only thing thats missing is the 7th Slot (which would turn the color dark yellow for weapons that have purple color at 6 Slots) and the icon change.
Everything else is identical to console BW weapons now. If you get an Lv50 Lindwurm in v0.9, it will be a BW Lindwurm as you know it from consoles minus the 7th Slot being possible.


Short version:
If you get/use an Lv50 weapon as of update 0.9, it will be identical to a BW weapon as you know it from consoles, minus the possibility of a 7th Slot and minus visual stuff (icon and color).

Your GS:C trinity drops were just a case of unlucky RNG I'm pretty sure, I have no confirmation or evidence whether trinity parts have equal drop rate as I haven't found the files that control any of that yet. (if they exist) But if I had to guess gs:c trinity part drops have equal rate.

Yeah the Japanese wikis are very helpful, afaik they have detailed drop statistics aswell, only things missing are part drop rates and slot drop rates (Revelations 1).

Testers are greatly appreciated so thank you!
