True Primary Secondaries [BETA]

Description
Experimental new version of Primary Secondaries

Please read the description before using this mod!

This mod requires the WotC Highlander and the Ability To Slot Reassignment mod to work. Dont skip the required items!
Dont run this mod together with the old PrimarySecondaries mod. If you use this one deactivate the old one.

So what is the difference to the old Primary Secondaries you might ask yourself.

The old Primary Secondaries mod is generating primary versions of secondary weapon templates. This resulted in some issue like duplicate variants of unique weapons and
the need of attaching upgrades to primary and secondary weapons separately.
It also caused various issues with mods that have single build items like Covert Infiltration and LWOTC.

The new version allows you to equip the exact same melee weapons and pistols/autopistols in the secondary and primary slot.
So e.g. with this mod if you equip the chosen katana in the primary slot you wont be able to equip it in the secondary slot since you have only one unique item you can equip in either slot.
If you have upgraded a pistol with some weapon upgrades you can now just remove the pistol from a secondary slot of a soldier and give it to another soldier in the primary slot.

Sharpshooter, Rangers, Specialist, Grenadier and PsiOperative are enabled to use primary melee weapons, primary pistols and templar sidearms.

FAQ

Do i need to start a new campaign when switching from the old primary secondaries mod?
Its recommended, it might work for running campaigns as well but i dont take any responsibility if this causes issues.

Do mods that require primary secondaries work with this version as well?
All of my and iridars like dual wield melee and dual wielded pistols mod are updated to support the new version but keep in mind that this is a experimental BETA so there are probably some bugs and glitches i havent catched yet.

RPGO is complaining that it needs Primary Secondaries after i switched to this version
You can safely ignore that warning for now.

I play with RPGO, do i also need the Ability To Slot Reassignment mod?
Yes its needed and it is fully compatible with RPGO.

Known Issues

- True Primary Secondaries currently doesnt work in skirmish mode. Support for that will be added soon.

Believe you're supposed to be able to use this instead, but I personally I use the Beta version. Though I still haven't had any luck with swapping the primary weapon for any of my dual wielding characters, just the secondary weapons.

Is there some way to change the ammo that faceoff uses when i have a primary pistol equipped? I don't like it using all my ammo

I don't have that mod, so it wouldn't be the one that's causing the conflict for me.

I recently installed Viper's Genji revision https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3392016283 and it seems like it was the conflict. Uninstalling it fixed my issue.

Yeah I just started having the same issue as 3D Master. I don't know if it is because I just upgraded to v1.6 of the Alternative Mod Launcher.
3D Master May 3 @ 4:12pm 
As LtCommander417 mentioned I too cannot pick a weapon for the primary weapon; secondaries are just not an option, it only shows primary weapons that you can't equip because the class doesn't allow for it. It's not just Akimbo, it's also the Samurai class that has the same issue. And the issue is worse; the weapon in the primary slot remains stuck there; meaning when you upgrade the weapon, the soldier remains stuck with the tier 1 version.

Ok, trust them then, LWOTC is a whole other thing. It touches so many parts (it's really a complete overhaul), it has problems with a lot of other mods.

Wow, this is what they answered me on discord:
Don't use Reduce Armory Clutter with LWOTC.
LWOTC disables the "upgrades" this mod works with.
If you do have schematic upgrades for something, you are using mods that are not designed with LWOTC in mind, and I can't guarantee that it won't brick anything.

I had never heard of "Reduce Armory Clutter", so I looked it up. Half the first page of comments is people saying it IS compatible with True Primary Secondaries. So, I would assume it's fine.
