[The Final Mod Pack] Misc part
« on: May 18, 2014, 09:06:38 pm »
Hello,

The goal of this project is to make huge community modpack well balanced with multi-language adds for strings (en-GB, en-US and fr strings for begining).

I have indexed all existing mods and classified in the following way :

[HERE] - core : the main tech tree
[HERE] - vessel : improved fighter, longrange fighter, ultimate fighter ...
[HERE] - personnal armour : combat uniform, jump armor ...
[HERE] - basic weapon : sniper, shootgun, grenades, machinegun, knife, ...
[HERE] - advanced weapon : plasma, gauss, railgun, laser, dart-rifle, FushionTorch ...
[HERE] - hwp : all tanks and overtanks, sectopods, ...
[HERE] - misc : maps, new units, custom rulset's, gfx/sfx improvements, ...

Of course I will not included the totality of the existing mods, but to choose most interesting and to balance them in the game.

Thanks for your support !

The misc type group contain too much argoments

In my opinion It is better to divide it in more different part.

The grops could be

 -new mission (terrain, terror, ufo)
- Cult, Men in Black,
- new race raptoid and Waspite, Cybermite (Cover aliens)

Hello,

In fact I simply thought to make a list and validating the compatible mods being able to be used directly.
Or simply an "compilation" of existing mods with compatibility checked.

Hey guys, I've run into a crash issue.  I'm not sure what it is due to, exactly, but it only appears to happen on one map (on alien turn 1).  Does anyone know what to look for in the savegame yaml to determine which map it is?  It's a terror mission with Ethereals and Sectopods, and appears to have a large stadium to the north of my landing site.  Does that ring a bell?  Which mod does this come from?

The technical issue is that the alien patrol nodes seem to be corrupt.  I opened a bug at https://openxcom.org/bugs/openxcom/issues/819 but Warboy closed it, saying (rightly) that he wasn't about to debug the FMP.  I'm not quite sure where to go with this next.  I've attached a savegame that shows the issue and written up some more technical details in the bug report, if that helps.

Great job on the FMP, by the way!  You've done an excellent job of blending all the new content!

This terrain is from Hobbes' Terrain Pack - the new Railyard tileset. I don't really think it's related to the FMP at all (though I made the nodes for those maps, so it's probably my fault anyway :P). Therefore I really think you should go to Hobbes with this one, because I wouldn't know where to start.
