Are there any decent armor replacement mods for plated and power armor? I really don't like how they look and the decreased customization is a bummer as well.

[Mr. Someguy]

Quick question, where is the character pool stored? I'm about to purge and rebuild my mod list, but before I've heard a couple stories about character pools going missing, so I want to back them up first.

I actually love making propaganda when I have a character pool full of various reference characters.

Thanks for reminding me that I should get around finishing my Payday 2 Hotline Miami masks pack that I abandoned a year ago.

I almost spat out my drink, I wasn't expecting my old animation and that poster of Big Boss I made like a year ago to be the thumbnail and banner for an XCOM 2 mod collection, thank you E3245.

Thank you XCOM 2 for the meme text so I could create an unfunny spoof of the 'Claims to be pro-life, dies anyway.' image.

so to follow up, if the hunter truly only has squadsight, PSA that unrevealed faceless can provide line of sight for him. sneaky af.

[pebkac]

So I decided to buy the ability that automatically puts your soldier into overwatch for one of my sharpshooters, thinking to myself "holy shit, a sniper that can move full range every turn and still gets to do damage, that's so broken". Imagine my disappointment when I found out that the skill only grants a pistol overwatch shot.

I never even considered nude mods for this game. Ofcourse it exists.

[Gunner]

Once the mod tools were out, one of the first mods I saw was a nude mod. it was a port of one of the skyrim bodies. I could only ask why.

I gave my Payday characters more of a casual, more bank robber look to them.

I had pretty much all of my soldiers in Raider gear for the first few missions, wanted to give the impression they had been wandering the wilderness as outlaws for years until XCOM picked them up.

My Payday gang are in similar gear to yours now.

[Cuel]

is there no way to get random perks (like old awc) in wotc?

[Fulgrim]

Anyone else having problems with their character pool since getting war of the chosen?

Every time I start up the game my entire character pool has randomised, none of the soldiers look anything like they are supposed to, with only the name and classes of the character's remaining the same

[Janeway]

[QUOTE=Cuel;52678956]is there no way to get random perks (like old awc) in wotc?[/QUOTE]

that's through the training centre, which is a new feature that gives your soldiers a perk tree that can potentially allow them to have every single perk in there class, the old AWC perk system has been put into that, as 4 random perks from the various other classes are then assigned to your soldier and you can buy them with Soldier AP and XCOM AP.

As an example, the first two perk layers are the class perks and the XCOM tier are the random perks.

[t]https://i.imgur.com/I5SYJYe.png[/t]

Soldier AP is points that specific soldier gains through various means, XCOM points are a shared points system that everyone has access too.

[gongi]

So I haven't been keeping up with WOTC at all and decided to re-install XCOM 2 today.

What is it mainly and is it worth it?

Basically what Enemy Within was to XCOM: Enemy Unknown.

An expansion pack that adds in a ton of new shit, new factions which act as the new classes, new enemies, the Chosen, loads of stuff and it retcons the story somewhat to compensate for the new things.

[That Deer]

I think I found out why I keep randomly crashing and I'm pretty upset when I did: It's Gotcha Again.

It all makes sense, all the crashes occur when I'm using movement related skills; Slash, Spider/Wraith Grapple, and most recently, Ionic Storm, all of which probably causes some shit to foul up with all the new dealios the mod adds for marking lines of sight on things.

However, they don't happen 100% of the time, which is annoying since it makes it hard to pinpoint when it happens or to replicate it, but it's definitely persistent issue. I can go whole missions zipping around with the grapple, slicing dudes up, etc., but every now and then it just dies.

It's apparently an issue that's been brought up on the mod's page, but the maker dismisses it as the 'XCOM engine being silly'. I'll try disabling it, but goddamn, it's such a useful mod that I'd hate to let it go.

[Keychain]

I'm having the crashes too but I don't have Gotcha Again.

Here's the mods I use: [url]http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1134049819[/url]

It's pissing me off because all of my mods are "compatible" but I keep getting these crashes whenever I use abilities or move, and it seems completely random.

[Perogi Palooka]

Check your crash logs in C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE\Documents\my games\XCOM2 War of the Chosen\XComGame\Logs. Really helped me out when I was troubleshooting mods that were crashing my game on start.

Specifically ctrl+f in the log for "Warning: Warning" and/or "Error: Error" closest to the bottom of the log, as those will be the ones that caused the crash directly. You'll find earlier instances of Warnings throughout the log, but those usually aren't critically detrimental to the game running, just mod mishaps or forgotten lines.
