yeah finding an advent captain is really hard because of the rank system i had to spawn one in too. but i know they exist. love the mod though.

There is a bug with skull jacking a captain. I found it in the code to confirm. This was a while ago so I don't recall the exact line but the big definitely exists. You may need to use the console to spawn a regular advent captain.

Hey guys loving the mod so far, one of the best i've seen for XCOM2.
Any way to increase pod sizes in normal diff without messing with other mods to do so?

Now it's been 5 years

For any new people wanting to run this, there is a typo in the ini for the ammo, making so the starting talon rounds(flechette rounds) do nothing at all.

The ini is on 942465276\Config\Weapons\Ammo

The default is:

FLECHETTE_DMG=2
FLECHETTE_PIERCE=-2

However, the first variable has the wrong name and the second never gets imported, as it is never added to the weapon damage value.

I myself changed the ini to this:

FLECHETTE_EXPOSED_DMG=2
FLECHETTE_PIERCE=0

That is the correct name for the DMG and sence pierce never did anything anyway I just change it to 0. For me this makes it as good a AP rounds, just the way I think it is meant to be, so I never tried to fix the pierce (If it even works in the first place; there are other weapons with pierce in the negative but I have never seen it change the DMG that much, or at all).

Wish this was still around

@Unclutch: This is for vanilla, not WotC.

anyone know if this conflicts with long war of the chosen?

its been 4 years now please come back and continue making this mod

Is anyone noticing that the perk tree is straight up not working? I only get 2 not the 5 said in the change logs

I hope this isn't dead... this was, is, and (hopefully) will be a great mod in the future.
Somebody get a nanomedkit in here and heal this place.

its been three years :/

Everything about this mod is very cool, except for one thing and that is the weapon skins, I prefer the more conventional look vs the cartoonish. So yeah that is just my person choice but I love this mod, and will try it on my next campaign.

Is this supposed to be like Delta Green that's like the X-Files mod of OpenXcom?

What happened to the discord?... I look today and suddenly it's not listed in my servers, and the link listed above is dead. That's got me a bit worried that the WOTC version of this mod might be dead in the water, and honest to god this mod is my favorite for XCOM 2. I only really care about WOTC for the performance improvements, and that's why I've been looking forward to Spectrum on WOTC cause then we'd finally have the best mod running like an oiled machine. I really hope this project hasn't run its course

Just throwing this out there, but any chance for a Spectrum mod for XCOM CS?

I agree Sensyclaw. Yzaxtol, please come back and do some more!

Do you need to install the mods on the contributors collection?

Pandoran troops are a bit oppressive due to how common they are. Since they aren't a standard troop, some story on them would be ideal. Best would be lore about them and then they become unlocked, or perhaps unlocked from Dark Event and normal troops only/else rare otherwise.

the Spartan class has ability options that reference sword, but secondary swords are greyed out/can't equip swords.

This mod has been a wonderful experience so far, everything seems touched in some way. I especially like all the descriptions added to everything and the way those descriptions are formatted.
I looted an orange ADVENT weapon and it had two attachment slots but then others had no slots?
Speaking of ADVENT, I like how they are the main focus early game. I want to be eased into aliens.
Is the Gorilla class/nickname intended to be Guerrilla?

@redsky14 they would have basically had to redo everything for LW2, and by the time WOTC came out pavonis was already completely focused on their own original game so it just didn't make sense for them to take their efforts away from something that they'll eventually actually make money off of to swivel back to something they won't get anything else out of at all.

The problem is, that WOTC runs so much better than vanilla XCOM 2. Even with just Spectrum, it runs like crap. But I can run a 260+ mod WOTC, on maximum settings and it's smooth as butter.

Both LW2 and Spectrum are 5x better then Wotc, if you love serius Xcom with good strategy. Im playing LW2 again, then Spectrum. I dont think ill ever play Wotc again. 2 easy. I wish they made LW2 for Wotc, but nothing.

I would really love an updated Spectrum for WOTC. I have been really enjoying playing it on the old edition. This mod is too good and has so many awesome and interesting features. I do hope it gets updated.

The Lord of destruction answers prayers. it is good.

go for it

Asketh and he shaleth delivereth ..... maybe...th depends on what happens.........eth.

Please lord... make an updated Spectrum... grace us with your presence and give us our drug of choice... This mod can't die...

nah its dead

just curious, but is this still being worked on at all, or is it as is now?

@Doc: No, it would not. RPGO is a WotC mod, this is for vanilla. Even if this were for WotC it would probably clash, because Spectrum has its own class overhaul.

Would this work with the RPG Overhaul mod?

Maybe we can at least get the enemies ported to WOTC some day!

after all my time in wotc, i still think this was the best overhaul mod to play in.

Was clearing out old vanilla mods and saw this, this was really amazing work, loved the bosses and associated loot. Hated the Psi guys though lol Thanks and hope one day theres an updated version!

can i use this in wotc

I think it is the hardest, and also the most well made Total Conversion of xcom 2. I am waiting for the Wotc Integration. but i think i will give it another go in a day or two

I miss this mod but I can't quite let go of WOTC.

@redsky14 Im playing on commander, and so far im seeing 2 or 3 squad size pod.
I'm not very far in the campaign tho, so maybe they will come later.
Not sure how it is on leggendary, but since i think increase difficulty would also increase other things in the game such as costs for stuff, research times etc, i don't want that.

Monesl - you dont need mod for pod size. Its already in this mod, just play on higher difficulty.

Loving the mod so far. Given all the gear options and tactical choiches, i would like to play it with increased squad size, and to balance it out i'd like to increase pod size. Are mods that do increase pod size compatible with spectrum?

Yzaxtol, ty again! Still best mode, after 1300 hours of playin xcom2. I wish you continue some day.

Not compatible with WOTC as far as I can tell. Oh no! D:

Try the steps outlined in 'Having Issues?' should fix your problem.

So uh, Small problem im running into. Which Kind of Screws me up at the beggining of the game..
Usually, When i start a mission There is Always At least One S.E.N.T.I.N.E.L Which constantly spawns drones and Gives itself 100 Shields. And its not like i can do much, Since all i have is Swords and Basic Rifles..

Other than that, I absolutely Love the mod, But maybe make the S.E.N.T.I.N.E.L Late game?

Is this compatiable with WOTC? Looks abslotely stunning ...

say is it normal to have a normal perk tree if not can someone say how to fix it?

@ShiningOne Ty i can confirm it does work lol. Im having fun so far.

@Vash, cosmetic mods should be fine.
