Not by me. But the code is very short. Most modders should be able to port it to LWOTC.

Any chance this is being worked on for LWOTC?

Deleting the config folder first really works.

Also see my comment in rmod LW2_All_Perks_Per_Rank, 4 Nov 2018.

BTW, this has been a must-have for my campaigns.
slovejoy1269 Apr 14, 2019 @ 7:00am 
Will try clearing and reloading again. Thanks.
dv  [author] Apr 14, 2019 @ 6:53am 
Conflicts with other mods. Probably wrong load order.
slovejoy1269 Apr 14, 2019 @ 6:52am 
More perks is not working like it should. I went to advance some soldiers, but when I chose the perk that I didn't want for that soldier, that's the perk he got. Conflicts? It just started yesterday.

I play on a mac and can't get the alternate mod launcher to work on it
dv  [author] Sep 9, 2018 @ 7:43am 
If reinstalling multiple times does not work, your last hope is the alternate mod launcher.
bosser333 Sep 9, 2018 @ 7:12am 
I have tried everything incluedign reinstalling the mods multiple times. But I still can't get it to work Do you have any ideas? if not thanks anyway

You can check which workshop item updated.
Workshop items/subscribed items/date updated.

PS, thank you for your reply. Definitely appreciate it.
monk eh? Jun 8, 2018 @ 6:05pm 
The thing is my load order hasn't changed. I'm still using the same old version of mod manager (1.1.2), haven't updated it, and haven't added or removed any mods. The index number for LW2_More_Perks is the same, and the index number for LW2 itself hasn't changed either.

I mean the difference we're talking about is that it worked one day, and the next when I wake up for my customary morning XCom session, it was no longer giving me 2 perks.

All I know is that some XCom 2 workshop content updated (not sure which or how to check which), I changed graphics settings, and then I was no longer getting 2 perks per rank.

Any ideas? Much appreciated, your mods are must-haves for my playthroughs.
dv  [author] Jun 8, 2018 @ 5:48am 
The only known cause for "not working" is the load order.
monk eh? Jun 7, 2018 @ 5:54pm 
To add: officer and AWC mods aren't working either. Just acts like vanilla.
monk eh? Jun 7, 2018 @ 5:53pm 
Any reason why this would stop working midway through a campaign? No crashes, the only thing that happened was I changed resolution and graphics settings. Nothing else has changed including load order.

To clarify, now when I promote my soldier, the perk I select is the perk the soldier gets, and the other 2 the solider doesn't receive. Essentially vanilla operation.
aarnold Nov 30, 2017 @ 9:42pm 
I've tried everything. non of your perk mods are working. I turned everything off except long war. Am I missing something? plz help
dv  [author] Sep 9, 2017 @ 11:54pm 
Update to work with the current version of LW2.
dv  [author] Aug 17, 2017 @ 9:11am 
In XCOM (not XCOM2) one could add a single perk via console during tactical. I think that does not work in XCOM2.
AnNapKin Aug 17, 2017 @ 8:26am 
Is there a way to add a single skill to a soldier with a command or something? I like this mod but i dont want all extra skills, would be far too OP.
dv  [author] Aug 1, 2017 @ 8:06am 
@Archwing Ruler
First time I hear about such a behaviour. Can anyone confirm this?
If you select the 2nd or 3rd perk you get the first one.
TennoTea Jul 31, 2017 @ 3:51pm 
Yeah apparently when I upgrade my soldiers, they are fixed to pick the 2nd and 3rd perks and not the 1st perk tree. Is there any fix?
ShadowHeart Jul 29, 2017 @ 9:33pm 
So I've tried unsubscribing and resubbing, and same issue. But your other mod that enables all perks per rank works fine, so for now I suppose I will use that one. I just find it unusual that that one works, and this one doesn't.
dv  [author] Jul 29, 2017 @ 9:30pm 
@ShadowHeart
In that case the mod is not working.
Most porblems are about load order. LW2 has to load first. You can try the alternate mod launcher and set load order manually. Alternatively unsub all mods, subscribe to LW2, wait until it downloaded, then subscribe to this mod.
ShadowHeart Jul 29, 2017 @ 4:29pm 
This mod does not appear to be working correctly for me. I pick a perk that should be the one that is not selected, but it instead treats it as standard and selects only the perk chosen. Not sure what the issue could be.
dv  [author] Jul 27, 2017 @ 9:11pm 
A new game is not necessary. Retraining allows existing characters to benefit.
The Gaming Archaeologist Jul 27, 2017 @ 4:07pm 
Do you need to start a new game for this to take proper effect? I assume existing character would need to be retrained.
Kazraan Jul 14, 2017 @ 6:44am 
I will try it again. Doesn't look like that one has been updated in a long time. Your mod is just so much smoother.

Sorry to bother you on this thread. Love your mods for LW2
dv  [author] Jul 13, 2017 @ 8:27pm 
This mod is for LW2 only.

Enhanced Perk Tree no longer works? That's news to me. Did not check that mod for a long time. It used to work with LW perk pack if one removed one line from a config file.

With the next DLC LW2 will probably need a complete rework. After that I'll have to update all my mods.
Kazraan Jul 13, 2017 @ 5:21pm 
This mod will definitely not work without lw2? I don't think the enhanced perk tree you mentioned below works anymore.

Just trying to get some long Lw 2 love lol
Wiike Jul 2, 2017 @ 3:31am 
Thanks for the reply. but I have like 200 mods subsrcibed, and im paranoid that it might stop working if I reset all mod.
dv  [author] Jul 2, 2017 @ 3:21am 
Could be the load order.
Unsubsrcibe all mods. Subscribe to LW2. Wait until it finished downloading. Then subsrcibe to this mod.
Wiike Jul 2, 2017 @ 1:05am 
This mod just stoped working after a game crash. I disabled and reenabled it but no success. Anyone have any idea how to fix this?
8feet Jun 22, 2017 @ 2:55am 
Your soldier perks gets stuck, cannot select, if the perks for you to choice are exactly the same.
(I'm using the Playable Aliens mod)
The Sectoid's promotion grant 2 perks.
Unfortunately there's exactly the same perk 'Mindspin' and 'Mindspin'
dv  [author] Jun 16, 2017 @ 8:47am 
@Mantis UK
Seems like it is working as intended. See description: "The skill you select is the skill the soldier does not receive."
dv  [author] May 24, 2017 @ 7:40pm 
Yes it can. This mod activates and deactivates without side effects.
Echo May 24, 2017 @ 2:43pm 
Can this mod be activated and deactivated in the middle of a campaign?
For example, if I'd want to have only 2-3 soldiers with double perks, not the rest of them.
dv  [author] May 21, 2017 @ 8:45am 
@Doc_Calm
You mean for "Long War Perk Pack"? The mod "Enhanced Perk Tree" includes this feature. See my own comment there (4 Sep 2016).
Doc_Calm May 21, 2017 @ 8:20am 
Cool Mod, but is it possible to make a version of this mod for LW2 lite? (meaning the initial LW2 offerings but not the ful LW2 mod. )
Azure May 20, 2017 @ 4:32am 
Once you get the hang of choosing what you dont want (and most of the time there is at least one bad egg per line) its fairly easy to keep it going. Just gets tricking on the those occasions with 3 good skills and what you want to make your solider do
LightenedDark May 16, 2017 @ 1:32pm 
Nicely done. When LW came out, the 3rd option for soldiers made me feel like I'd just have 3 straight-perk-lined soldiers running around for each class instead of 2 for vanilla. But even if I didn't do that, the 3rd perk tree didn't feel right. I'll explain.

Even in vanilla, the optimizer in me kept that 2 down to 1 so every gunslinger or whatever was built identically (and optimally). Adding more options increases the power ceiling for a LW character. But I could already "ignore" the bad options, and I already liked the "good" ones in vanilla. Thus the LW 3rd column seemed useless.

But choosing the worst of the 3 options per level is something new and exciting. Now the 3rd column from LW seems like it finally adds something to the game instead of fighting with my already high opinions of vanilla. Thank you dv!

Flik the Changeling Apr 22, 2017 @ 11:04am 
Well I say with less than 3 perks it works like normal until second or third promotion. then i cant promote soldier unless I turn off the mod, promote him and turn mod on again. As for other soldiers it works like a charm ^^ Awsome work mate. Kudos :demoticon:
CarnageFxz Apr 6, 2017 @ 9:10am 
im not sure what it is. if i disable this mod it shows all 3 perks when promoting in avenger when i enable it only shows 3 when im promoting after the mission not in the avenger weird. ill have to make new game see if that works. i can live with anyways. love this mod balances it out on harder levels.
dv  [author] Apr 6, 2017 @ 8:22am 
All Soldiers Gain XP claims to not override any classes. There should be no incompatibility with this mod. Looking at soldiers from the armoury with LW2 should display three perks. Neither All Soldiers Gain XP nor this mod should change that.
CarnageFxz Apr 6, 2017 @ 8:14am 
i have the mod all soldiers gain xp so after battle i can upgrade soldiers from that battle when promoting but if i go back to the avenger and go to soldiers it only lets me pick 1 because it changes all perks back to 2 instead of the 3rd which only display upon finishing mission,

im thinking it may have a conflict with all soldiers gain xp maybe havent tried turning it off yet.
dv  [author] Apr 6, 2017 @ 7:48am 
@Ryan21000
I take that as a bug report: Promotions from the after battle screen result in the wrong number of perks.

What exactly do you mean: "... they can have 3." Under which circumstances do they get three? Always? Sometimes?
CarnageFxz Apr 6, 2017 @ 2:19am 
i find when i promote from the avenger the soldiers most of the new classes i downloaded only have 2 perks. but after the fight when i promote they can have 3... :/

Work perfectly..👍
