Playable IB-01: CEL 240 - Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon Mod Showcase

Trying to get back up to speed with the mod showcases since the previews are ironically more demanding editing-wise despite being shorter. The IB-01: CEL 240 boss has been converted into a playable modelswap not once, but twice. This showcase is about two modders presenting their respective version of that Ibis Series frame.

- This is a traditional modelswap converted for use on a reverse-joint leg build using the KASUAR/42Z and the NACHTREIHER set as its skeleton. Includes an invisible IB-C03W1: WLT 011 Coral Rifle and laser drones. The IA-C01W2: ML-REDSHIFT can either be invisible or constantly emitting Coral energy.

Main showcased mod 2: IB 01C CEL240 custom

- This is a reimagining of the Ibis Series frame as a biped using the EPHEMERA set as its skeleton. Includes invisible laser drones tied to the model's "wings"; remove the drones and you get a rather standard-looking AC.

- Mainly used for infinite EN. The modded IB-01 CEL 240 wouldn't fly up to the map ceiling otherwise
