One of the sexiest colorways I've ever seen! I'll hopefully start building MG's after I get my new apartment set up.  :laugh:

That's a sweet looking mod!

Haha, I already made a post about receiving the Nu Gundam ver. Ka here :p

I'm going to start building it in about 2 weeks, then I'll also have the Micro-Sol solution and new markers for panel lining. Though the decals of the Nu Gundam ver. Ka will take a whole afternoon I think. They're all waterslide decals except for the silver stickers that go behind the green parts.

I haven't put the decals onto the 2nd Zeta yet because I have to un-transform it which I don't really like doing. It's hard to transform it into Waverider form perfectly and right now, it's transformer perfectly, haha.

^It would be a huge letdown if it is. It can't be anything like an Exia Repair btw, because both Wing Gundam and Wing Gundam Zero got blown up in the series.

Also, I'm sure that the transformation of the Unicorn Gundam is way easier than that of the Zeta Gundam, haha.

Just like with the Zeta Gundam. And with the transformation of the Zeta Gundam there's a hard part where you have to put both wings into the shield and somehow click the shield into a hook that easily moves aside. Spend several times getting that right. And the arms also have to fit perfectly into the wings, otherwise the wings are pushed down.

With the Unicorn Gundam it's just opening stuff up, shifting things.

It'd be nice if the Unicorn/Banshee models lights up inside in their NT-D forms. Unless we already do have 'em in the HG.  :laugh:

Lol, don't you mean MG? Because MG would be more likely to get such a feature. But alas, it's not added to the MG officially, only though modding. The RX-93 Nu Gundam ver. Ka has silver stickers behind the green parts though so that it shines more when light is being cast on the psycho frame. I wonder Razorwing, does the Unicorn also come with such stickers?

lol yea I meant to say MG, I've been running through a lot of Acronyms while coding lately. :p

 

You know, I've always wondered if anyone has ever worked on an OS based on Gundam, even something similar to Veda.

The green of the Nu Gundam also has a sort of glow color to it but it's a darker color. Plus, I guess the silver works better on the Nu Gundam because the Gundam itself is darker than the Unicorn. So the green color isn't really that noticeable without the silver.

The head is the only thing I like about that new Gundam. The rest is just a mish/mash of other Gundam so I'm going to wait till we see the actual Gundam before I pass my judgement. Right now I kinda dislike it.

I know the Unicorn doesn't have green parts, lol. The RX-93 Nu Gundam ver. Ka has an open psycho frame as well. There are parts all over the mobile suit that can open up to show the psycho frame. Though unlike the Unicorn, Nu Gundam has a psycho frame originally emitting green light. At the end of Char's Counterattack it emits all the colors of the rainbow though, which is something that Unicorn Gundam is going to be doing as well in episode 7.

You can see the green parts here:

Though they added silver stickers to put behind the green parts because as you can see, the color green is pretty dark. With the silver the green parts shine more which is a nice touch tbh.

So my question was if the Unicorn Gundam also had silver stickers behind the red parts so that they shine more. But I guess not because I can't see them on any MG Unicorn Gundam.

One way to do the silver is maybe spraying silver paint at the underside of the clear green piece.

Another way is to spray the whole piece silver then spray some clear green over the silver.

Another way is the paint silver on the surface the clear green piece is going to be fixed onto.

Well, the Gundam comes with silver stickers so I'm just going to use those. It's not so much that the green pieces need silver behind them, it's that the silver stickers make the green pieces shiny and reflect light. I only asked Razorwing if the Unicorn had such stickers as well because of the similar feature. Also, paint would probably ruin the effect that the psycho-frame has because it would be come a flat piece. Currently it's made to look see through, like it's not a mechanical piece but more of a radiating psycho-frame.

Thanks for the tips though :)

It's nice mod but not a nice version of the Hi-? Gundam.

The original Nu ver. Ka looks better imo. It's the colors that put me off because the blue looks too purple. The difference in design between Nu Gundam and Hi-? Gundam is what made them both look good. Now they took the Nu ver. Ka Gundam and gave it a different color. The only thing that makes it a Hi-? Gundam is the backpack with the funnels.

      If its the devs fault you would think Unreal would help M$ take full advantage of Unreal and work with them to fix the performance issues. Otherwise they are catching unwarranted bad press.

      Thanks for the advice guys, I'll give my current GPU a clean and then run the benchmarks to see how similar it is. Hopefully a bit of a clean-out will help it last a bit longer.

      Pretty sure those will still be in this game. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well.

    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates by Sayan Sen Recently, Microsoft delivered its latest Defender patches for Windows 11 ISOs. These definitions are released from time to time alongside the general security updates available during Patch Tuesday. Speaking of Defender, the company has now announced another important change that affects how security updates are delivered to enterprise devices running Windows. According to a recent announcement, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's endpoint detection and response (EDR) updates will no longer be bundled with the monthly Windows security updates or Patch Tuesdays. Instead the company is shifting delivery of these updates to Microsoft Update, bringing EDR servicing in line with several other Microsoft Defender components. If you recall, Microsoft last year moved PowerShell updates to Microsoft Update (MU) as well since it provides automatic updates for Microsoft products and services. Thus the move is intended to allow Microsoft to deliver EDR improvements and security enhancements independently of the OS's regular monthly update cycle; this should enable faster deployment of protection updates without requiring organizations to wait for the next Patch release. For those unfamiliar, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's EDR capabilities are designed to help organizations detect, investigate, and respond to advanced threats across managed devices. Keeping these components updated is critical for maintaining protection against evolving attack techniques. The rollout has already began for Windows 10 devices in late May 2026 (last month) and Microsoft says it will gradually expand support to Windows 11 and the remaining supported Windows versions over the coming months. The company expects deployment across Windows 10 and Windows 11 to be completed by fall 2026 or around Q3 of this year. Once the transition is complete, EDR updates will be delivered through Microsoft Update using KB5005292, provided the required prerequisite updates have already been installed. Microsoft is also introducing a new Defender Update Service as part of the change. Following installation of the first update, devices will automatically create a new directory located at %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Microsoft Defender\Defender Update. Microsoft notes that restarts may occasionally be necessary in case of "rare" failure scenarios. For most organizations, the tech giant says no action will be required as long as Microsoft Update is already permitted within their update management strategy. Admins who rely on manually deployed update packages, however, will need to adjust their processes to ensure the new Defender update package is included. Microsoft also recommends reviewing internal documentation and notifying helpdesk and security operations teams about the updated delivery mechanism to avoid confusion during the transition. As a prerequisite, the tech giant notes that systems must be running Sense version 10.8798.25857.1000 or later and have one of the following Windows updates (or later) installed: Win11 24H2 KB5062660 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 23H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win11 22H2 KB5062663 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 22H2 KB5062649 (2025-07 Cumulative Update Preview) Win10 1809 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2019 KB5063877 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2022 KB5063880 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) Server 2025 KB5063878 (2025-08 Cumulative Update) As always, organizations should verify that their update policies align with the new servicing approach before the broader rollout reaches all supported Windows platforms later this year. In case of major problems, the EDR update can be rolled back to the inbox version stored in %ProgramFiles%\\Windows Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) using: MpCmdRun.exe -RevertMde -Product Edr -ToVersion Inbox For those who have access to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center portal, you can view the message here under ID MC1381119.
