Description
Speeds up the game by removing pointless pauses and other time-wasters.
All changes are purely cosmetic.

UPDATED TO SUPPORT WAR OF THE CHOSEN!
For a version that doesn't require War of the Chosen, see here

Combat changes:
  • Removed 1-2 second pause after:
    • Shooting, throwing grenades, abilities, etc.
    • Getting a kill
    • Going into cover
    • Reanimating corpses and unburrowing chryssalids
    • Enemies are revealed
  • Removed enemies randomly pointing for no reason
  • Removed some unskippable Bradford voiceovers:
    • 1, 3, and 6 turns remaining warnings
    • Civilians dying warning
  • Removed 33% slowdown of enemies not being attacked during overwatch slowmo (enemies being attacked are unaffected)

Non-combat changes:
  • Increased the speed of the Avenger on the global map
  • Reduced the fade-in time of the horrendously slow color picker

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

Other similar mods:

Classes Overridden (why do I care?):
  • (non-essential) UIColorChip.uc
  • (non-essential) X2Action_EndCinescriptCamera.uc
  • (non-essential) X2Action_EnterCover.uc

Comments are right

I think the speed up of the avenger works
but enemies still point for no reason after their turns

Can confirm it does not work for me either, on a clean install with the alternative launcher and only this mod activated. Still getting every animation.

Awesome mod. Wouldn't play without it!

Can confirm this doesn't work in Tactical Legacy Pack missions. I'm not using other mods.

Sadly, didn't work for me (using only LWOTC besides).

Dominian Nov 27, 2024 @ 2:23pm 
Does it still work after launcher remove with fresh install?
Treeky Nov 3, 2024 @ 5:47am 
@BlueRaja Oh, thanks for the clarification, think I got it working now!

Might be unrelated to yours as I do have a few other mods, tho for some reason the 'animation' for any of the drones doesnt work anymore, it just shows the person as the drone flies off doing its thing before continuing the game like normal - any ideas or other mods to fix or even just skip all some of the cinematics in missions?
