Tilesets as in levels?

He means the sets that the levels are generated from.
Here's some pictures of my Insurgent-COM modded. I chose the outfits by wildly flinging my mouse and scroll wheel.

[QUOTE=Destroyox;49744650]BTW I'm starting my ini'd the fuck out playthrough. Here's a little snippit of what I changed.
Codexes have 30 mobility and Archon stats of dodge and defense, and they have 40 sight range. Their guns do 4 damage but their crit is 10+ (so 14). Vipers have 50 sight range too.[/QUOTE]
I recommend adding shit ton of more enemies.
Speaking of .ini playthrough.
I'm currently playing 3x more enemies, super slow tech for both xcom and alien([I]trying to give it Long War like[/I]) and bunch of other tweaks. Shit's super fun.
In one of Raid missions 2 patrols came together and my Grenadier was just close enough to blow 'em all up. It was.... [B]glorious[/B].

This is how many enemies there are in normal missions. Why no deaths? Well... your guys level up pretty damn fast if they survive first 5 missions.

How do you add more enemies in a squad? I'm thinking like 1 Officer 3 troopers.
[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;49745138]He means the sets that the levels are generated from.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I'm attempting to clarify what he meant because they're not called tilesets so I wasn't sure. There's a lot he could mean - does he mean the Parcels and PCPs that are arranged into Plots? Does he mean the individual models that go into making a Parcel/PCP?

Some modify default .inis, I myself edit in Documents\My Games\XCOM2\XComGame\Config\
Open up XComMissions.ini
In [B]ConfigurableEncounters[/B] there's [B]MaxSpawnCount=[/B] Just increase that number to whatever.
Adding more pods is bit more complicated and time consuming.
To add more pods find [B]MissionSchedules[/B] and add at end but before [B], )[/B] this [B]PrePlacedEncounters[X]=(EncounterID="ADDENEMYTYPEHERE", EncounterZoneOffsetAlongLOP=X.0, )[/B]
Whenever you add new pod, you've got to add +1 PrePlacedEncounters[X] from previous PrePlacedEncounters.
Example
Vanilla
[code]MissionSchedules=(ScheduleID="Guerilla_D1_Standard", MinRequiredAlertLevel=1, MaxRequiredAlertLevel=1, IdealXComSpawnDistance=32, MinXComSpawnDistance=28, EncounterZonePatrolDepth=4.0, PrePlacedEncounters[0]=(EncounterID="OPNx2_Standard", EncounterZoneOffsetAlongLOP=7.0), PrePlacedEncounters[1]=(EncounterID="BOSSx2_FillStandard", EncounterZoneOffsetAlongLOP=-7.0, EncounterZoneWidth=6.0), PrePlacedEncounters[2]=(EncounterID="BOSSx2_Standard", EncounterZoneOffsetAlongLOP=-7.0, EncounterZoneWidth=6.0), PrePlacedEncounters[3]=(EncounterID="DKVx1_Chryssalid", EncounterZoneOffsetAlongLOP=-11.0, EncounterZoneWidth=10.0, EncounterZoneDepthOverride=36.0, EncounterZoneOffsetFromLOP=0.0, IncludeTacticalTag="DarkEvent_InfiltratorChryssalid"), PrePlacedEncounters[4]=(EncounterID="DKVx2_FacelessAndCivilians", EncounterZoneOffsetAlongLOP=5.0, IncludeTacticalTag="DarkEvent_Infiltrator"), PrePlacedEncounters[5]=(EncounterID="OPNx2_Standard", EncounterZoneOffsetAlongLOP=12.0), )[/code]
Modded 1 extra pod
[code]MissionSchedules=(ScheduleID="Guerilla_D1_Standard", MinRequiredAlertLevel=1, MaxRequiredAlertLevel=1, IdealXComSpawnDistance=32, MinXComSpawnDistance=28, EncounterZonePatrolDepth=4.0, PrePlacedEncounters[0]=(EncounterID="OPNx2_Standard", EncounterZoneOffsetAlongLOP=7.0), PrePlacedEncounters[1]=(EncounterID="BOSSx2_FillStandard", EncounterZoneOffsetAlongLOP=-7.0, EncounterZoneWidth=6.0), PrePlacedEncounters[2]=(EncounterID="BOSSx2_Standard", EncounterZoneOffsetAlongLOP=-7.0, EncounterZoneWidth=6.0), PrePlacedEncounters[3]=(EncounterID="DKVx1_Chryssalid", EncounterZoneOffsetAlongLOP=-11.0, EncounterZoneWidth=10.0, EncounterZoneDepthOverride=36.0, EncounterZoneOffsetFromLOP=0.0, IncludeTacticalTag="DarkEvent_InfiltratorChryssalid"), PrePlacedEncounters[4]=(EncounterID="DKVx2_FacelessAndCivilians", EncounterZoneOffsetAlongLOP=5.0, IncludeTacticalTag="DarkEvent_Infiltrator"), PrePlacedEncounters[5]=(EncounterID="OPNx2_Standard", EncounterZoneOffsetAlongLOP=12.0), PrePlacedEncounters[6]=(EncounterID="OPNx2_Standard", EncounterZoneOffsetAlongLOP=24.0), )[/code]

I might've went too far in some places
Considering the abominations already popping up like Shrek and Tails mods, it's only a matter of time until someone tosses things in like Big Boss, Duke Nukem, Master Chief and such.
A batshit XCOM Video Game Protagonist Jamboree beyond character pool customization.

Exo Suit and Lancer Helmet look really good together I think.

I'm actually really far into the game [sp]pre-transmission tower[/sp] and I still got magnetic weapons on everyone but my grenadiers, of which only two (my two best) got W.A.R suits.
Predator armor and Exo suit FTW.
I may have blown up a couple of civilians on a retaliation mission and extraction mission, but aliens died too, so I guess it was for greater good.

First new checkpoint is done! Going to be releasing a pack of new checkpoints for all locations as my first world expansion effort, should make for a little less repetition on levels.
I don't suppose you could do a "raid tile"? Like for smaller towns?
(Having like two ADVENT cars escort one of those tracked APC's or vans with sirens and shit all on parked on a road with some hastily erected barricades around.)
[editline]15th February 2016[/editline]
Also how do you add nw tiles? Can you make entire maps?

You mean like a raided house?
I'm working on making a tutorial on how to add new Parcels/PCPs, I'll link it when it's done :)
Yeah, maybe with a blown up wall and with ADVENT vehicles outside. I noticed that the tracked APC's are rarely used aside from being parked outside slum outposts.
sweet, the tac masks can be used with the ADVENT helmets

Just paint it red/white with black and you got Terran/Galactic Republic.

Speaking of which, anyone else here who thinks the Predator armor looks alot like NC armor?

So, at what point do you guys throw in the hat on a campaign?
I've been surviving so far on my current run and effectively maxed out all my tech, but turnover among my soldiers has been unbelievably high, and every time I get an "A-Team" something seriously bad happens to them.
Like, I was doing a VIP capture mission, and on my way out I had the guy carrying the VIP sprint to catch up with the rest of the group...
And somehow in some leap of logic, he routes himself across a rooftop that's out of the way and activates a SectoPod which proceeds to obliterate him on the Alien turn... And leave the VIP completely intact. So, naturally, I run a grenadier over to Extract and launch a nade onto the VIP...
And yet, that VIP is still alive. What the fuck.
We *need* a mod that lets us kill unconscious VIPs instead of locking us into having to capture them once Subdue is hit. Our unconscious men can be killed, so why not theirs?
[editline]15th February 2016[/editline]
The silver lining is that all my ranking members and full-upgraded Psi's survived, but I lost two rising stars that were set to replace the Colonels I lost a month before.
Operation Death Slayer ended with the first capture of a grenadier. I'll try to get you back you valiant bastard
[url=http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=622143477]My first modding tutorial is out.[/url]
This series will be about editing levels, this tutorial starts with the basics like setting up the SDK, explaining how the XCOM levels are generated, and how to look at/edit them.
Part 2 will be on getting a new parcel into the game, no ETA as yet.
