Replace the all the data.lua with the below lua

--data.lua

BASEPATH = "Mechanicus/images/"
MODEL_SCALE = 0.65
MODEL_SIZE = 360

IDLE = {
filename = BASEPATH .. "level1_idle.png",
width = 150,
height = 160,
frame_count = 22,
direction_count = 8,
animation_speed = 0.15,
scale = MODEL_SCALE
}

RUNNING = {
filename = BASEPATH .. "level1_running.png",
width = 150,
height = 160,
frame_count = 22,
direction_count = 8,
animation_speed = 0.6,
scale = MODEL_SCALE
}
MINING = {
filename = BASEPATH .. "level1_mining_tool.png",
width = 150,
height = 160,
frame_count = 22,
direction_count = 8,
animation_speed = 0.9,
scale = MODEL_SCALE
}
IDLE_GUN = {
filename = BASEPATH .. "level1_idle_gun.png",
width = 150,
height = 160,
frame_count = 22,
direction_count = 8,
animation_speed = 0.15,
scale = MODEL_SCALE
}
RUNNING_GUN = {
filename = BASEPATH .. "level1_running_gun.png",
width = 150,
height = 160,
frame_count = 22,
direction_count = 18,
animation_speed = 0.6,
scale = MODEL_SCALE
}

animations = data.raw["character"]["character"].animations

--Each value of array represents a different armor type
for i=1, #animations do
animations[i].idle = IDLE
animations[i].running = RUNNING
animations[i].mining_with_tool = MINING
animations[i].idle_with_gun = IDLE_GUN
animations[i].flipped_shadow_running_with_gun = nil
animations[i].running_with_gun = RUNNING_GUN
end

And replace .info.json with the below info

{
"name": "Mechanicus",
"version": "1.0.8",
"title": "Mechanicus",
"author": "Hapless",
"contact": "",
"homepage": "",
"factorio_version": "2.0",
"dependencies": ["base >= 2.0"],
"description": "For the glory of the machine god. A character skin that brings the glory of the Omnissiah to an unexploited world. Still a bit buggy but ill fix them in the next release."
}

This is just what I could do shadows don't work cant be bothered figuring it out if someone can fix those would be sick but at least it works

(updated a month ago)

^^^ For the second line the paste kinda screwed up

BASEPATH = "--Mechanicus--/images/"

replace the -- with __

a month ago

I've done some rummaging, I think the reason the shadows are broken is because the size of the shadow textures in base is now significantly different to the shadow textures in Mechanicus, it will either require changing of the texture file or some extra settings in the data.lua. I'm working on it now, will update if I get it working.

So in order this mod to work you shood rename mod floder in just"Mechanicus" (it also should not be zip archive) then replace .info.json with
{
"name": "Mechanicus",
"version": "1.0.8",
"title": "Mechanicus",
"author": "Hapless",
"contact": "",
"homepage": "",
"factorio_version": "2.0",
"dependencies": ["base >= 2.0"],
"description": "For the glory of the machine god. A character skin that brings the glory of the Omnissiah to an unexploited world. Still a bit buggy but ill fix them in the next release."
}

ALSO Replace the all the data.lua with:
"-data.lua

BASEPATH = "Mechanicus/images/"
MODEL_SCALE = 0.65
MODEL_SIZE = 360

IDLE = {
filename = BASEPATH .. "level1_idle.png",
width = 150,
height = 160,
frame_count = 22,
direction_count = 8,
animation_speed = 0.15,
scale = MODEL_SCALE
}

RUNNING = {
filename = BASEPATH .. "level1_running.png",
width = 150,
height = 160,
frame_count = 22,
direction_count = 8,
animation_speed = 0.6,
scale = MODEL_SCALE
}
MINING = {
filename = BASEPATH .. "level1_mining_tool.png",
width = 150,
height = 160,
frame_count = 22,
direction_count = 8,
animation_speed = 0.9,
scale = MODEL_SCALE
}
IDLE_GUN = {
filename = BASEPATH .. "level1_idle_gun.png",
width = 150,
height = 160,
frame_count = 22,
direction_count = 8,
animation_speed = 0.15,
scale = MODEL_SCALE
}
RUNNING_GUN = {
filename = BASEPATH .. "level1_running_gun.png",
width = 150,
height = 160,
frame_count = 22,
direction_count = 18,
animation_speed = 0.6,
scale = MODEL_SCALE
}

animations = data.raw["character"]["character"].animations

--Each value of array represents a different armor type
for i=1, #animations do
animations[i].idle = IDLE
animations[i].running = RUNNING
animations[i].mining_with_tool = MINING
animations[i].idle_with_gun = IDLE_GUN
animations[i].flipped_shadow_running_with_gun = nil
animations[i].running_with_gun = RUNNING_GUN

Isn't this just what TooLatte posted? I'm working on further modifying what TooLatte did to get shadows working.

Folks, I slightly groomed a code and added settings to selectively override animations. Shadows also seems work okay. Feel free

Original author, if you somehow will continue support please let me know, I will remove that mod, all credits payed to you any way!

My apologies for only getting online now after space age has been out a week. I don't think ill be updating this mod since since more knowledgeable people than i have thankfully forked it. i have added the updated alternatives in the description.

@mad_engineer, feel free to indefinitely update and modify it as needed, i appreciate your work.
