Hi. Yes, that guide is correct.

> In addition, for my own general knowledge, what is XComGameCore.ini that has AnimSetAdditions <-- must this be disabled too?

It's not "must", but may as well, the AnimSet *probably* doesn't have anything other than photobooth pose in it.

Hi Iridar... i know... old mod, stupid question >.< probably no one had asked...

If i want to remove the Photobooth pose from this mod (its an ocd thingy :steamhappy:)
Do I disable the entries in both the XComContent.ini and XComGame.int?
I was self researching. The above method is taken from Kexx's How to Remove a Pose from the List .

In addition, for my own general knowledge, what is XComGameCore.ini that has AnimSetAdditions <-- must this be disabled too? Thank you.

The video is just showing us the definition of "Wtf is property damage?"

Thanks for the mod! I made a translation into Russian. Please add it!

Just finished a campaign with about 280 mods, this one included, and had no major issues! Thanks for putting this up.

Will this work on Sparks if you give it to their armor? If it does I assume the will drain doesn't affect them in any way?
SuperDigga Jan 7, 2021 @ 2:27pm 
Thanks Iridar, I will check it out

@Iridar, sure but im a little clueless.. thanks for the reply anyway

Hi @Iridar

I like the mod's idea, but I had to nix it because of constant graphical glitches. Mainly it is the soldier will completely overshoot the spot they are supposed to move to, "swing at the air" in an empty spot, and attack the enemy. The graphics and models don't line up with where the game really thinks they are.

It might just be me though. Does anyone else have that problem?
Iridar  [author] Dec 29, 2020 @ 11:38pm 
@SuperDigga
You can give them this ability directly via XComClassData.ini
SuperDigga Dec 29, 2020 @ 11:14pm 
Any way I can add this to MEC troopers from the known mod?
Militus Immortalis Nov 24, 2020 @ 5:03am 
Oh my god that video xD
GargakOfTheEast Oct 16, 2020 @ 6:09pm 
that promo is priceless <3
JimmyTheCannon May 28, 2020 @ 2:42pm 
Dang. That would've been perfect.

Might still use it anyways, though.
Iridar  [author] May 28, 2020 @ 2:40pm 
@JimmyTheCannon
No.
JimmyTheCannon May 28, 2020 @ 1:43pm 
Is this configurable into maybe a passive? I'm doing Marvel vs. Advent (if I can get the game to run with the mods) and it'd be perfect for Hulk or Hulkbuster if I make them.
Iridar  [author] Apr 10, 2020 @ 6:13pm 
@RakkoHug~<3
Very likely absolutely unrelated.
RakkoHug~<3 Apr 10, 2020 @ 5:53pm 
Possible Bug: Used wrecking ball during retaliation mission -> discovered faceless en route -> Soldier could not take any action on arrival to intended destination (still had an action point left)

Great god

@Cake_Knight
Sure, why not.
Cake_Knight Nov 29, 2019 @ 1:51pm 
Will this be updated to work with the Metion Battlesuits?
toaster tech Sep 18, 2019 @ 1:40pm 
i have PDST from that song.. still a good mod tho
TARDNUTS Mar 1, 2019 @ 12:33am 
Man I was hoping it would play the song when you activate the ability! Lol that would be amazing
Zenotek gaming Jan 26, 2019 @ 11:45am 
come on please make it for men too
Agretalien Jan 8, 2019 @ 8:55am 
Only females? Sexist.
Crimsan Dec 20, 2018 @ 9:49pm 
Awesome. As a fan of the classic 1994 game, I was requesting modders to add this feature on power suits and tanks.
Iridar  [author] Dec 20, 2018 @ 11:36am 
@Crimson
Mid tactical mission? Probably nothing bad will happen, but you won't see the ability on your soldiers until the next mission.
Crimsan Dec 20, 2018 @ 11:14am 
What happens if I install this within a mid-game save?
Argel Tal Dec 18, 2018 @ 10:30am 
nice mod, thanks for making terminators great again !
SobbazMorgi Dec 18, 2018 @ 12:43am 
Oh my god yes, bring the meme back baby! I'm gonna have fun hauling-ass through buildings with this.
Player Dec 17, 2018 @ 4:31pm 
Photobooth pose takes this mod to the next level lol
Giga Vivian Dec 17, 2018 @ 10:46am 
Hm ok, I overracted and overlooked those poses before, even having those mods that I had myself. DX But ya still not that many poses as you would expect in modding, it's still probably the lowest quanity out of all kinds of mods. And that beyond part... ya surpisingly there's no... "LoverLabs" poses. ♥
moixcom Dec 17, 2018 @ 7:31am 
so sub this mod, make a soldier, name her miley cyrus, equip her this mod and go. sounds good.
Nega Prophet Adult Warhead Dec 17, 2018 @ 4:03am 
cool thank you man
Iridar  [author] Dec 17, 2018 @ 4:02am 
@THANOS #1 DAD✅
Yes, this will work.
Nega Prophet Adult Warhead Dec 17, 2018 @ 3:43am 
WILL_DAMAGE_PER_TILE = 0.33f
to
WILL_DAMAGE_PER_TILE = 0.00f
Then?
Iridar  [author] Dec 17, 2018 @ 3:00am 
THANOS #1 DAD✅
It will also make soldiers less reliable at destroying cover they are running through. If you want to disable Will drain, just set the will drain per tile to zero.
Nega Prophet Adult Warhead Dec 17, 2018 @ 2:26am 
Does setting Destroycover fixe to false only disable Will drain, it doens't diactivate anything else right?
Nega Prophet Adult Warhead Dec 17, 2018 @ 2:22am 
You are a genius man.
Iridar  [author] Dec 17, 2018 @ 12:16am 
@Giga Phoenix
It was always in the description, look closer ;) Dual Wielded Melee and Dual Wielded Pistols add photobooth poses as well, and yes, it does require custom animations. The Tactical Legacy Pack added a new method of adding photobooth poses, so it's much easier now.

@Stahlherz
No, just like the ball & chain, the pose is done from scratch.
AstroNaught Dec 16, 2018 @ 8:52pm 
lol much better than the original vid :D
Giga Vivian Dec 16, 2018 @ 7:17pm 
I mean even if, It's still a new pose with an imported prop. As surpising and bizzare as it is, there are no mods on the workshop featuring any newly made poses. With the closest one having anything to do with poses... just lets you have more poses from the other classes, like Unrestricted Customization. And yes, this includes edits of existing poses, no such thing of those either.
Skootchums Dec 16, 2018 @ 6:49pm 
Pretty sure the pose is just a frame of the grappling-down animation .
Giga Vivian Dec 16, 2018 @ 4:54pm 
Showed it off in the "thumbnail" but you did not mention the new Wrecking ball POSE... But it seems that you don't relize... that you are the first person on the entire workshop (and beyond) to make a new pose! with a NON-in-game prop no less.

How'd you do it, seemingly so easily that it even passed your mind in the dec? I was told it was "possible" but extremly difficult, and "required a new animation pack made from scratch".
OP-4 Dec 16, 2018 @ 1:46pm 
NOW THATS A LOT OF DAMAGE
d_valroth Dec 16, 2018 @ 12:41pm 
@Possum just go to Iridar's workshop, and get the jet packs too while you're at it. :)
