Description
IMPORTANT:
This mod relies on custom shaders to work properly - you MUST have X2WOTCCommunityHighlander installed when using mods with custom shaders!

*Please note that the Shadow Company voice pack is NOT a requirement - merely a suggestion for those who may want the full package. The mod will work fine without it. If you don't want it, then feel free to ignore it.

INTEL ENTRY # 9597
INTEL ITEM: "SHADOW COMPANY"

----------------------------------------------------------

"Supposedly, they're an elite group of PMCs whose ferocity in combat rivals that of the Skirmishers, with an operation so clandestine it puts even the Reapers to shame. Even with our vast underground networks of contacts and informants the intel we managed to acquire on these guys is minimal at best. However, in all the firsthand accounts and old government reports we could gather, one name keeps coming up: “Shadow Company.”

According to the fragments of intel our research teams managed to piece together, Shadow Company was/is a Tier 1 private military corporation made up of former U.S. Army Rangers operating as a freelance paramilitary force taking contracts on the government level. Their last employer before the invasion was one Lt.Gnl. Hershel Shepherd, who is presumed dead after a conflict of some sort left their forces shattered. They were most likely forced into hiding shortly following the alien invasion of Earth, and that’s where the trail goes cold. Last any of our contacts heard, they're being led by an individual under the callsign "Oxide". Whether this is a single person or a conglomerate of high-ranking executive officials is yet to be determined.

Nevertheless, while we have not yet been able to locate this shadowy organization, harrowing stories and firsthand accounts of a deadly, well-coordinated cadre of soldiers-for-hire continue to persist. If only we could get a lock on these guys, maybe they'd see things our way."


- John "Central" Bradford

Well, this is probably my biggest mod to date, and one that has been in the works for almost 2 years. This was the first cosmetic mod I ever worked on, and was started in late July of '22 - being scrapped and redone 2 times since then.

The OG MW2 Shadow Company is my favorite military unit from any game ever. Their sleek uniforms, deep intimidating voices and organized operation are just plain badass. They were put onto the Steam workshop long ago in a Modern Warfare armor pack, but their customizability is low, their textures are lower-res, and there are multiple flaws with the original models which this mod corrects. All of this was passion-driven, and I have put an immeasurable amount of time and work into these guys. Please consider giving the mod a try, and rating/favoriting if you're satisfied with how it turned out.

Also, if you're wondering about the low file size, it's because I cooked/compressed the mod packages. The original size was 76 MB.

Have fun, stay well, and God bless you, friend.

Thanks, but no, I don't.

Nice mod, and I was wondering if you had plans to do the Exo suits from COD advanced warfare?

Thanks man, those are some mighty kind words. There isn't much to work with in terms of detailed step-by-step armor and cosmetics tutorials, unfortunately. However, there are a couple videos that show the basics of the mod-making process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96MmTLRqQN8&list=PLp83PHd7anCZbe4_x6AI9WGN4VGOsE4wY

While they aren't the best for learning the ropes, it's definitely a start. I sort of had to teach myself through trial and error, as well as looking through the uncooked files of other modders' work. If you have any questions or hit a roadblock, you can always reach out to me at my discord listed in my Steam bio. I'm always willing to help others where I'm able.

I love your modpacks as always! I am using yours, NerevarRising97's, and ∑3245's Call of Duty Mods and they're all 10/10! I have wanted to try getting into modding myself so I could make some of the MW3 Operator uniforms but I haven't been able to find any War of the Chosen tutorials for modding uniforms for a beginner like me. Would you have any suggestions for where a modding noob like me should begin?

Thanks, glad you like it! Feel free to publish them for the public to see.

@The Unslain Dragon This mod rocks! Thank you so much for making it. Got plenty of Shadow Company screenshots in my gallery if you want to see!

This is great, the amount of hard work that went into this is incredible! Keep up the awesome work!

@Radness Thanks, but probably not. I’m not a fan of the remastered armor designs — especially those of Shadow Company. They dropped the ball with them imo.
