anyone figure out WOTC compatibility on this mod yet or?
BoxingBud Mar 11, 2024 @ 8:46pm 
should I use this one if I am not using long war?

Mod works great. Just don't bring andromedons on stealth missions lol. (they are very clumsy)

Also love sentinels, aka, SPARKS: Just lay waste to all terrain.

Could you please upload this to the Xcom 2 nexus for reverse compatibility with MO2?

wotc version when
ZOIZIMAX Dec 8, 2022 @ 2:29am 
Is that work with WOTC ?
Lyra Hamstrings Mar 21, 2022 @ 5:34pm 
Any chance of this ever gaining WOTC compatibility?

Is there a way to remove the build/rebuild limit on sectopods and gatekeepers?
If so how do i go about doing it
Cheers

I hate how this concept hasn't really gotten much attention, I mean, I REALLY want to play this with Wotc, RealityMachina's wotc version has broken animations, with no patch in sight, its really sad, because I want to have a viper fight alongside an actual fucking bionicle because im a lunatic but I can see this mod having other applications in Wotc, but alas, I assume the day when someone decides to make another playable aliens mod will never come

Probably the only working playable aliens mod we will ever get. Although it would really need some tweaking. Like add the Codex Clone ability after taking damage.
Nozuki Dec 27, 2020 @ 10:32am 
Does anyone had a mod with ALL aliens and advent units?
Blaize Nov 12, 2020 @ 7:32am 
can we play the sectopod ?
TriPixel3D Oct 21, 2020 @ 6:26pm 
I don't know if this has been stated already, or if it's relevant in any way, but can we just take a moment to respect the fact that a multi-decades old resistance fighting against alien tyranny decided to call a mission 'Operation: Spider Slap'? Thank you.

is this war of the chosen combatible?
Courier Sep 6, 2020 @ 12:08pm 
Dont know if this can be done, but Buildable Sectopods?
keyofrage yt Aug 20, 2020 @ 11:53am 
idk why it says not long war compatible i ues it all the time on long war with no trouble at all
A tropical beverage Jun 9, 2020 @ 7:03am 
This will work great with my new idea
Player 2 May 6, 2020 @ 11:15am 
i believe i use this mod before. did wotc version got deleted or something?

I was one of the original authors of this mod back four years ago. Who could have predicted that the next XCOM game (Chimera Squad) would go in the same direction! Tongue pull and some of the other unique alien actions have been available here for years. (I haven't done xcom modding in 3+ years, and I have no idea about WOTC porting, sorry!)

This mod is the real alien mod for me. The other one is kinda crap and doesn't offer good units like Codex, Gatekeepers and Berserkers.
It's a shame it hasn't be ported to WOTC.
Vex Feb 29, 2020 @ 1:33pm 
A port to WOTC would be nice, keeping all of the aliens listed with it, not counting the Mech due to Shen's last gift giving you one.
vandujr Feb 1, 2020 @ 1:16pm 
wotc pls
vandujr Feb 1, 2020 @ 12:02pm 
@Blackout dude that one's not the same, with this one you can just build them, in that one you have to hope for good rng that will give you the aliens you want.
Pachinko Jan 23, 2020 @ 2:36pm 
WOTC, Not LW
Pachinko Jan 23, 2020 @ 2:36pm 
i hope eventually somebody makes a full lw port
Lizard Aug 23, 2019 @ 8:29pm 
WOTC?
vandujr Jun 7, 2019 @ 12:30pm 
is there a wotc version? or does this work for both vanilla and wotc?
Makuta Zyber Mar 27, 2019 @ 8:11pm 
how do I change the color of the alien's?
Space Slug Mar 14, 2019 @ 11:52pm 
Is it possible to play as the Avatar like the old verison?
Jakesullycom13 Feb 22, 2019 @ 10:36am 
Can I get a detailed list of each aliens abilities they added cuz im going to help do a similar mod for wotc and need some inspiration
Jakesullycom13 Feb 10, 2019 @ 7:04am 
Will you make a WOTC version?
MantiSynth Jan 25, 2019 @ 3:28pm 
so i got a mission to rescue a sectoid, and i put him on overwatch like all normal xcom plaayers do when theres no enemies around, and then he just refused to do anything for the rest of the mission. when i selected him, it just displayed the message "out of actions." just putting this up so people don't repeat my mistake on ironman
ArkonisAelir Oct 20, 2018 @ 4:14pm 
Never. Use the Allies Unknown version.
AbyssalEden Oct 20, 2018 @ 3:47pm 
WOTC when?
Grif Oct 13, 2018 @ 11:02am 
How do I find the .ini file? I haven't messed around with individual files and don't want to break something.
saximaphone Sep 23, 2018 @ 1:44pm 
Makes sense seeing as they stopped developing it before WotC came out
CabooseRed Sep 23, 2018 @ 10:36am 
Do not install this if you own war of the chosen, and intend to use it for war of the chosen, it works with vinilla but now my game wont even start. You've been warned.
Maximum Broly! Sep 1, 2018 @ 6:23pm 
Does this work w/ WOTC?
TheGamingZilla Aug 2, 2018 @ 7:42pm 
the alien characters seem to be a bit buggy, cant actually hack stuff and the codex has a weird bug with it when you use death from above and this other ability after killing a enemy and then teleport and after that you cant attack and only move
Voxygue [FR] Jun 9, 2018 @ 3:43am 
maybe i 'm doing something wrong but this doesn't work for me, i got no dlc and when i start the game with this mod my game just crash, help plz :(
Specie Jun 8, 2018 @ 10:27am 
i'm going to LOVE THIS MOD and with the combine stuff

it will be the RETURN OF THE FREAKING COMBINE
Complete/Total Randomness May 9, 2018 @ 8:46pm 
How do you make the alien show up? I'm making some custom characters as the aliens and stuff, but the model isn't changing. Does it change once I start the game?
Z3r0hka May 6, 2018 @ 6:35am 
I have a problem - the aliens is not paintable at all!
Skychop Apr 27, 2018 @ 1:04pm 
Ok i am in a mission were i used a crysalid (The first blacksite mission) and i have like 10 chrysalids and now i cant finish the mission
Pokemastuh Mar 30, 2018 @ 8:27pm 
For some reason this has been breaking my ability to fix sparks
Ci'Ram, Lord of Turrets Mar 20, 2018 @ 8:52pm 
Friendly Chryssalids are the most OP weapon I've ever had in my arsenal. They 1-shot many weaker enemies, applying a poison that immediately turns the corpse into a cocoon that has 36 health and can spawn one Chryssalid per turn, for two turns, starting on your very next turn. The newborn Chryssalids can repeat the same procedure, allowing your forces to grow exponentially throughout the mission. The only real risk is if your original Chryssalid is killed in the process, at which point you lose this ability when the mission is over.

After two missions of utterly dominating the enemy on Commander difficulty, I decided to test the new recruit: I sent Corporal Bugman out alone on his next mission. By the end of the mission I had 13 Chryssalids chasing a single surviving ADVENT mec (although Bugman died early on, ending the fun at least temporarily).

Chryssalid recruits turned the game from XCOM 2 to Starship Troopers Simulator 2018.
Popo Bigles Jan 10, 2018 @ 6:15pm 
Hey. Never use the Chryssalids on a Rescue mission or anything that requires EVAC because the zombies will not recieve that option and you'll have to start all over again. Unless that has been fixed with a Suicide button >_>
raidio Dec 26, 2017 @ 6:28pm 
I'm in a mission that isn't timed and have to evac all, after evacuating all my soldiers I still cannot finish the mission because I have 2 advent troopers that I got from "Raise The Dead". idk what to do. Please Help me
arousseau16 Nov 30, 2017 @ 9:47am 
will there be a war of the chosen version?
