anyone ever fingure out if it was possible to restrict the types of enemies targeted by the idle suppression?
I assume since the lost can be turned off it's possible, and I recall it being asked some years back, but was it ever disclosed?

Update on my experience, although the mod works, LWOTC user here, I experience CTD straight to desktop and freezing during alien movement when this mod is enabled, I have extensively tested the same battle 8 times 4 times with the mod enabled, 4 times without the mod enabled, prior to diagnoses that this mod was causing issues I haven't had any issues with the mod In LWOTC campaign until I started playing Tactical legacy. crashing 1-2 times every other battle. 7 missions to be exact.

Note. what I have realised is, it only seems to crash using laser/magnetic weapons however as stated in the desc v1.06
- Rebuilt to work with the Legacy Pack update.
- Added a safety check for a repeating error, "game should crash less often" doesn't sound very consoling.

Thank you for blessing my 350th hour with XCOM 2 and porting to WOTC, runs smooth as butter on my rig and the live firefights look incredible while choosing between targets

its not a serious problem sincew my 1660 can more than hanfdle the chaos, but at tines, the shooting causes my sound to get too muffled. its like my entire game is drowning in water.

Use the lite version. I run it on my ally rog and no issues.

@Gandalf my rig is a super computer and it still crashes. The problem is the game + this mod, not your rig.

I only wished it worked well on my rig, as it stands, I crash to desktop a lot. Are there any other games that do what this mod does?

Just a word of warning: DO NOT use this mod when playing with 5 times the enemies and 20 squad size

Use this to troubleshoot

Thanks pal, that's very helpful.

Luckily, I only get it consistently when there's a lot of characters on the field.
But I'll try that out if/when it starts up again.

@Rikimaru I used Iridar's Weapon Skin Replacer. Specifically the Projectile Replacement.
In this example, the Lasgun is a weapon that uses the beam weapon effect and was the weapon most consistently causing the crash for me so I replaced it with the Blaster Bolts from the Star Wars Separatist Armoury Mod as follows:

+PROJECTILE_REPLACEMENT=(ACCEPTOR_TEMPLATE=Lasgun, DONOR_TEMPLATE=WP_E5RifleBX)

I would recommend switching out any weapons you commonly use with the beam effect into something else to reduce crashes (I don't remember the last one I've had since making this change.)

@Sir Fluffy McDuck, did you use a workshop mod for that?

As an update for my own issue, I swapped out the beam weapon particle effects for something else and this pretty much cleared up my crashes. So I'm glad I seemingly found the problem. Obviously for people who like and use that effect it isn't a solution but I managed to play from there on out.

I really love this mod and I've attempted to use it in 4-5 different playthroughs, but every time I was eventually forced to remove it. The crashing is just too much. It usually happens less often at first, but it always eventually makes the game unplayably crashy. I've had to put it behind me basically.

Did anyone come up with a solution to the crashing issue? Seems to happen every few turns now and I can't get a callstack cause it just closes to desktop. The translucency thing doesn't help and I'm not losing frames at all, it just will suddenly freeze up and then CTD at seemingly random intervals.

Just a heads up, don't use Veska and Domnul's suggestions if you are in the middle of a campaign. It will erase your save files.

Woot woot!

Thanks, @Domnul Inginer for the viable solution. It worked and some other mods that I didn't even realise I had problems with have inadvertently been fixed also.

I managed to fix it ( with the help of reddit). You must delete the config folder under Documents > My Games > XCOM2 WarOfTheChosen > XComGame. After that you need to restart the game a couple of times without mods enabled, after doing that you need to restart a couple of times with mods enabled and it should work. This worked for me and like 3 other people that helped me.

This worked for me.

I also needed to download the highlander dlc mod too

Also make sure Framerate smoothing is disabled

This mod works great. I'm using it with 80+ other mods (including LWOTC) and everything works as intended (however expect some framerate loss during big battles, I recommend tweaking the config.ini to decrease the number of suppression fire at the same time).

This mod is a gem and makes the xcom battles incredibly intense and fun!

@KingPazzaz
I play with Reconceal after Battle and have no problem with this one.

Yeah, not having this mod function anymore completely screws with the immersive dynamic the game had.

I highly doubt this mod works anymore. I tried everything, and i mean everything. The mod doesn't work even if it's the only one active, of course with highlander. I tried it with AML and still nothing. I installed the legacy version, that didn't work. I reinstalled the config, verified the game files and still nothing. It's a shame since this mod was so cool

Could this perhaps be 'conflicting' (in the sense that this next mod conceals XCOM after visible enemies are dead) with Reconceal After Battle? None of the characters seem to be using Idle Suppression and it's giving me Idle Depression.

Is there an easy fix to reduce the sound of idle gunshots? Gunfire is the loudest part of the game and this mod is idly suppressing other sound effects/voices. Besides the audio, this mod is very appreciated!

ive not been able to get this to actually work

@Merc - I scaled back the effects of this mod a bit in the mod's config file and haven't had a single problem with it since.

Tip: I was getting FPS drops on certain alien weapons but not XCOM/Advent weapons, so I blacklisted sectoids by typing: +BlacklistWeapons="Sectoid_WPN" into XComAnimation.ini. No more significant drops, at least in early game. May have to update the ini once Mutons show up. Obviously this means sectoids can no longer idle suppress but hopefully this helps someone.

ffs man this is why we cant have nice thing, one of the best mod in the game crippled because of firaxis dogshit code.
i already set all the settings to low and it still crashing on heavy firefight lol.

is there a setting i need to change or something software i need to download that i might not have??

still cant make it work any tips??? ive disabled all my other mods and only enabled this one and it still dosent work

Is it someway possible to make disoriented unit not to idle supress?

In the same boat as the below comment - this mod had been totally stable for me, but now I can barely seem to get through a couple of turns without it crashing. Strange as I've no idea what could have changed.

Just my luck. I comment about how stable the mod was for me and now it crashes all the time. Which is weird because when i was doing long war, i saw 1 crash after 40+ hours, but going back to normal WotC, and i get crashes all the time now.

I have to say I love this mod. The translucency fix worked perfectly, so now i get to see all the glory of a proper firefight. Many thanks and kudos to you.

Me about the Install this along a fuck ton other mods

My PC: "My time has come"

@Hobopew did you find a fix?

9/10 mod, I run it on every playthrough. The only thing holding it back from a 10/10 is the instabilities, but I can handle the occasional crash here and there, and from what I understand it isn't exactly the mod author's fault.

I've tried and I've failed, even with tips, I want this so bad but can't get it to work IT"S FRUSTRATING
Why can't anything be simple and thought ahead of time!
"This is why we can't have nice things"
I've seen youtubers actually make this work, but then again it could be Legacy for all I know!
Worst part of doing this is that Xcom is not a file for me! I have make it be one and would rather not go through it, I ain't tech savy. Sure I found a way, but there are no mods for me to do anything with.
I have my mods on the game but not the files! If anything I would ask the mod creator to just add every gun mod in existence to the files and update them regulery, but even then that would not work... My rant has gone on long enough, some of us are upset, some of as are happy, at the end of the day not everyone's going to get what they want.

same here

yep not working for me either

@hobopew I'm in the same boat

I'm using AML I've un subbed, deleted, looked into the config, reinstalled etc and I can't get Idle to work, anyone figured out why it isn't activating at it's default 80%?

I really like this mod and the concept. It's great to see both sides exchanging fire. But it murders my framerate.

Havent tested performance but it seems the memory issue when firing has been fixed in wotchighlander non beta version 1. 22.3 so i guess that fixes the resources usage

It worked for a few missions and then stopped working. Can't get it to work now even right from the new game. Tried disabling everything in AML except idle suppression and CommunityHighlander. Not sure what the problem is.

This Mod is just absolutly wonderful, the game is unplayable without this!

Hey i love your mod and it makes Xcom so much cooler, But i have an issue with the sound effects. Even when i look somewhere else in the map, i can still hear the gunshots as clear as if i was standing right next to them, i am not sure it can even be done. But if the sound effects of gunshots was enhanced in a way so that it would sound more distant when there's shooting offscreen. That would make this mod perfect.

Do you have the required mod enabled as well?
