Title: [submod]Submod list for XCF
Post by: Juku121 on January 13, 2023, 11:56:35 am
Felt that pointing out some of these for the third time was getting old, so made a list. I have not tried all of them and some are pretty old, so there might be inaccuracies.

If you know of any other submods (even and especially ones that are overmod-agnostic), whether from Discord, Matrix or some other corner of the web, let me know.

Indications of outdated mods, mistakes or omissions in the descriptions, or any other clarifications are welcome.

strange that no one made a mod with a 50-150 damage system, instead of a crazy 0-200 roulette.
As I understand it, to implement this, need to edit the items_XCOMFILES.rul file, but which lines exactly (and whether something else needs to be changed)

I've done a personal 2x0-100 system. 8)

The easiest way to do this would be to mass replace all instances of 'RandomType: 1' and 'RandomType: 2' with 'RandomType: 8' and 'RandomType: 9', and then add corresponding 'damageRange' and 'explosiveDamageRange' values (which can be other than 50-150) to the 'constants' section.

That will make everything that does 0-200 (and 50-150 for HE) do whatever value you specify instead. If that's your only problem with the damage model, that should be it.

If you also think that some weapons have mismatched randomTypes (because there are more than just two of them), that will require you to go over the item file and decide what each individual instance of 'RandomType' has to be. Shouldn't take more than a few hours. Plus some more every time there's an update.

I'm sorry, I didn't understand anything. More precisely, I understood, but as it turned out, wrong.
In the ITEMS file, many weapons, if not most, (and even their ammunition CLIP) do not have a RandomType line, while some weapons have this
Title: Re: [submod]Submod list for XCF
Post by: Juku121 on February 06, 2023, 10:36:13 am
'Randomtype' is usually on the ammo. If it's not there, it's the vanilla default (0-200 for most, 50-150 for HE/concussive, fixed for incendiary, etc). So if you want it to be 50-150, you need to add it yourself. Edit: Or use 'damageRange' and 'explosiveDamageRange', as outlined earlier.

thanks for the answer, then it greatly complicates the task)) And I was hoping for the "replace" notepad function
Title: Re: [submod]Submod list for XCF
Post by: Juku121 on February 06, 2023, 10:52:27 am
Actually, if it's not there and not one of the special damage types (incendiary, smoke, HE, special) I think it falls under 'damageRange'.

Edit: Yes, it does, even for new damage types. And default HE can be controlled with 'explosiveDamageRange'. So you only need to worry about damage types 0, 4 and 9. There are some weapons that might need adjustment (gas, some cult weapons), but all of these should also have an explicit 'RandomType' if they don't do either zero or fixed fire damage.

So I guess it can be done without too much hassle.

XCFHanger Expansion Mod v0.86 appears to be broken with the latest OpenXcom update from yesterday.

Cannot confirm.

Used the latest Github version of XCF, OXCE 7.9.8 and Hanger Expansion Mod v0.86. Both mods launch fine. After removing item requirements, a newly built Large Hangar seems to function like it's supposed to. Didn't try a base defence, but I don't think that'd be the cause here.

So, puzzling. ??? Anyone else get these errors?


Edit: Tried filling up the Large Hangar with 8 craft and running a retaliation mission. Both worked fine, the Battlescape map loads and there's a crapload of cars parked into the thing now. So, I'm stumped. What's this error supposed to indicate, anyway? Meridian/Yankes? Edit: It's Flaubert's hangar feature ported to Xilmi's Brutal AI.
Title: Re: [submod]Submod list for XCF
Post by: Xylon666Darkstar on July 04, 2023, 10:28:51 pm

Post by: Juku121 on July 04, 2023, 11:28:26 pm
In theory, no. In practice, who knows?

Fastest way to find out, install regular OXCE and copy the mods over for a try.



Edit: In other news, trawled the mod portal and found three new mods that were not on the list.

This submod is incompatible with the latest versions of the Brutal AI and requires modification to accommodate the new hangar system.

Post by: Juku121 on July 05, 2023, 11:43:38 am
Hmm, yeah, Brutal AI seems to be doing more than just AI these days.

Anyway, a quick fix attached until/if the submod author decides to make a separate version for BAI. No guaranteeing these will line up nicely for advanced aircraft since I only tested with Mudrangers.

Hi. If hanger allows more than one craft, you must provide coordinates for the crafts positions over the hangar sprite

"Another feature added is the possibility of allocate more than 1 craft at an specific hangar facility, so all crafts will be shown at Basescape, and can be right-clicked to go to craft screen. If more than craft is defined for an hangar facility, a new YAML tag "craftSlots" should be defined in the hangar ruleset. This tag will be followed by as many "position entries" as crafts are allowed in the hangar. Every position is a "- [x, y, z]" entry, where x,y are position offsets respect to the center of the hangar sprite, and z is ignored.
"
So, if ruleset of your hangar have tag "crafts: 2", you MUST add another tag with the positions for those 2 crafts at the hangar sprite. for example:

crafts: 2
craftslots:
    - [11, -11, 0]
    - [-11,11,0]

So, sprites of your crafts will be shown at (11,-11) and (-11,11) pixels from the center of the hangar sprite.

See this video for more examples:
https://youtu.be/0wmmdvmLTJE



IMPORTANT: these instructions are only for XIlMi'S Brutal AI fork of OXCE+. Official OXCE+ does not support this extended hangar feature (more than one craft VISIBLE  at hangars in basescape).

Temporary fix.

Next time, just copy something like
Code: [Select]
    craftSlots:
      - [-15, -15, 0]
      - [15, -15, 0]
      - [-15, 15, 0]
      - [15, 15, 0]
below the code saying 'crafts: 4'.

This may seem like a dum dum question, but when installing submods you dont include the 'metadata.yml' file do you?

It seems whenever I do include it, XCOM Files disappears from the OpenXCOM Extended mod menu.

EDIT: Nevermind, nevermind. I figured out what I was doing wrong.

I recall, the natasha mod relies on some rather weird player classes.  Given that, it makes more sense to fix the mod to be compatible with the new engine and to clean its internal logic up.

I wonder, if the newer OXCE includes some features from the Brutal AI branch already?  From what I'm reading here, the forks seem to be diverging into the realm of incompatibility.
Title: Re: [submod]Submod list for XCF
Post by: Juku121 on October 20, 2023, 10:38:11 pm
The only real incompatibility so far has been the multi-craft hangar feature. Easy to fix manually, and has been WIP in the main fork for quite a while now, with several people offering their solutions. Maybe it'll become a feature sometime in the not too distant future, who knows?

A whole bunch of Brutal AI changes have actually been rejected by OXCE devs.

And, in any case, Brutal AI is a pretty radical departure from vanilla in a direction most of the big mods were never intended to deal with. So it's naturally going to have issues, but from another POV many of these issues are precisely the point of having a 'brutal' AI in the first place.


Natasha Morozova Join... mod does have some rather strange features, but these are about as incompatible with XCF itself as they are with BAI, i.e. none of this works particularly well without constant tweaking to accommodate for the changes to the parent mod/AI fork.

Thank you for sharing this.  I tried Brutal AI build earlier this year, but it turns out that there have been some weird performance issues in certain places occassionally.

I wonder, if it's possible to configure the mainline version of OXCE to have similar properties to Brutal AI?  Maybe, something like omniscience?  While the omniscience on the side of AI may balance strongly in favor of AI, it would provide a good basic challenge.

Also, is it possible to configure the mainline OXCE to have the aliens use rockets and grenades much more actively and proactively?  That would introduce a tough landing zone cleanup, but it is also a fact that tactics (rocketeers shooting from the alloy skyranger, and the inventory stash moved to the middle) do exist to overcome even such challenges.

Natasha Morozova Join... mod does have some rather strange features, but these are about as incompatible with XCF itself as they are with BAI, i.e. none of this works particularly well without constant tweaking to accommodate for the changes to the parent mod/AI fork.

I tried to fix the mod at one point, but gave up, since overhauling logic to streamline it would've meant essentially an mod rewrite.  I think that multiplying entities, especially soldier types, in an incompatible manner, and also incompatible with future upgrades in XCF (consider e.g. the new cybernetic upgrades), is an unsustainable approach.

Yeah, performance is always a trade-off in making a good AI.

Maybe, something like omniscience?  While the omniscience on the side of AI may balance strongly in favor of AI, it would provide a good basic challenge.
I suppose you could change 'turn 20' to 'turn 1', or give all enemies unlimited psi-vision.

Also, is it possible to configure the mainline OXCE to have the aliens use rockets and grenades much more actively and proactively?
Don't think so. XCF enemies already blaster and grenade you as fast as they can.

mod rewrite
Indeed. The whole mod is kinda clunky, from what I saw during a brief look, and fixing that would basically be a new mod.

Thank you for sharing these insights.

What do you specifically refer to when talking about changing "turn 20" to "turn 1"?

Speaking more generally, how could I configure the mainline OXCE to have as aggressive XCF enemies as possible?  Ideally, that should not involve making any changes to the XCF itself.

I think, there's a bug in Brutal AI, since I had been having severe slowdowns on upper layers, as compared to lower ones.


Title: Re: [submod]Submod list for XCF
Post by: Juku121 on October 21, 2023, 12:21:25 pm
'Turn 20' is when aliens spot your troops via mind bullets and come out of their UFO to kick ass be killed like lemmings. The setting that controls that is 'cheatTurn'.

I don't think it's possible to make vanilla AI appreciably more aggressive. You could increase the 'aggression' and 'intelligence' values for individual units, I guess. I haven't noticed that making too much of a difference, though.

Well, melee enemies can actually be made dangerous by changing them to leeroys, like Zombies already are. Personally, I quite like leeroying cryptids or Chryssalids, because now they're dangerous and the mission is much less likely to turn into a bughunt. But that's only a small subset of all enemies. There's even a submod of mine for that, though it's not very up to date.


Big maps and showing more layers or more terrain have always been a performance headache, BAI or no BAI. XCF changing the vision range to 40 doesn't help there, either. BAI bugs should go into the relevant thread, though, since only Xilmi can resolve them properly.

I wonder, if BAI is meant to be compatible with mainline OXCE such that it could run XCF in an essentially compatible way?

I think that the visibility setting 3 (that is, one short of omniscience) is a good spot for the AI to go.  The play is brutal enough to be fun, and yet could realistically be beaten by the player without casualties at all times, with good tactics.

It's always fun to take advantage of the area effect ordnance.  I wish there were more commendations for good artillery work. :evil:

Title: Re: [submod]Submod list for XCF
Post by: Juku121 on October 21, 2023, 11:32:18 pm
No, 'cheatTurn' is a ruleset variable.


I think someone has been streaming XCF+BAI for a while now (and giving Xilmi feedback based on that), plus the other reports that occasionally surface here. I'm not sure it's fully 'supported', nor will ever be, but it seems to be compatible.


I imagine if you come up with some concrete proposals for the artillery commendations and, better yet, some artwork for them, Solarius will consider them. If they're not doable under the current commendation framework, you can always give it a shot in the OXCE subforum, too.

Ok.  All in all, it seems that the best approach would be to run BAI instead of OXCE for my long XCF sessions.

I have some developments with the ordnance variants.  If there's a way to post them on e.g. Github, or a similar public development repository, I'll consider contributing my rulesets and artwork.

Concerning the additional artillery commendations, I think that most relevant commendations should probably fall into the realm of total carnage and large weapons master.  Such commendations should be earnable by both artillery characters and also by BFG characters.

Perhaps, someone causing massive carnage while wielding a weapon that has explosive area effect and weighs more than e.g. 22 or 24, would be a source of commendation.

For me they give a "fatal error" and go desktop.
For example: some mods crash IF you disable "lazy loading", as far I know that mean "missing sprites", in other words if you manage to load them later they can cause problems.
Please correct me if I m wrong on this.

You are not wrong, but you are not completely right, either.

Megaphone works fine with lazy loading. You can use the attached file to get the missing animation and kill the error, if you wish.

MWEP is similarly fucked (very minorly, though) and the author needs to unfuck it. I'm not going to try to deduce what image they were trying to reference with their '700' and '800'.

Hangar mod is completely okay, as far as I can tell. Well, unless you use BAI.

Yautja hunt has sound issues, which can be fixed with the other attachment.

Question: The hangar cause some game unbalance?
These can be added mid game?

Post by: Juku121 on December 08, 2023, 12:16:22 pm
Tha hangars make bases less cramped. It does have an effect on balance, but how much is dependent on how fully you normally build up your bases.

All of these can be added mid-game without ill effects, as far as I know.

And what's the point of reporting issues if nobody notices? :D I mean, I did the fixes because they were excessively easy and I was already invested in finding out why the mods didn't work, not because I felt any obligation to do so. If the mod authors do their own fixes, all the better. But many don't read this forum here, I think.

Just to check, was it really yours, Solarius? Don't want to accidentally slander you. :P If it was, I imagine it's some sort of joke mod or proof-of-concept?

I'd kinda like to link to a more reputable source instead of a random forum post, so if there's one, I'd be happy to use it.

If you mean the surrender mod, then it's not mine, I don't even know what it does. Some mod which makes all units able to surrender? That's not me.

No, this (https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,11029.msg159052.html#msg159052) one, with the crazy Mongorns. Says it's yours in the metadata and all.

Also, I checked and the new MWEP integration is still not fixed on the wrong indexing front. Probably works via lazy loading, but might produce some odd effects. I even saw some weirdness with the basic default 'grenade' handob a little while back. Someone should probably tell the author on the mod portal, or something.

I think the issue is not solely adding rocks to mongorn maps, but rather having rocks in XCF at all. Imagine power-suit X-COM guys throwing rocks at aliens, instead of using bullets.

Bro, I'm so down to see a team of armor suited hooligans using sticks and rocks to dissuade the alien menace. I think a lesson in humility that perhaps fucking with the planet with a monkey infestation is almost a textbook case of *"fuck around and find out"*.

Here is a little something I made for my self because I was annoyed at how difficult some techs are to get. TLDR capturing aliens is hard. Capturing an alien engineer is harder still. So you can get locked out of some good techs simply by drawing badly on the random research table and wasting your engineers on starship types.

This mod changes it so that engineers no longer give you those, only engineering techs.

The reverse stat strings by Starving Poet hasn't been updated in years. I've added the missing transformations and made adjustments so that it shows all the stats that can still developed. I though to share the updated version if someone else is interested in reverse stat strings. (Incredibly useful to quickly see which stats can still be developed, IMHO.)

I've used this in multiple campaigns and it appears to work fine (though I haven't actually even used all the transformations myself).

XCFHanger Expansion Mod v0.86 appears to be broken with the latest OpenXcom update from yesterday. I keep getting these errors now attempting to launch the game  :-[

[04-07-2023_07-54-31]   [ERROR]   During linking rulesets of facilities:
Error processing 'STR_LARGE_HANGAR' in facilities: Not enough position vectors for crafts allocation.
Error processing 'STR_UPGRADED_HANGAR' in facilities: Not enough position vectors for crafts allocation.


I just posted a complete overhaul to my X-Com Files Hangar Expansion Pack mod.

Hmm, yeah, Brutal AI seems to be doing more than just AI these days.

Anyway, a quick fix attached until/if the submod author decides to make a separate version for BAI. No guaranteeing these will line up nicely for advanced aircraft since I only tested with Mudrangers.

Juku121, I just updated, actually a major overhaul to the Hangar Expansion Pack, and with the hopes that it will be more than just hangars, so new name is Facility Expansion Pack.

I haven't looked at the old mod in so ling I didn't debug the issues people are currently having, but if there are issues with the new mod release, then I'll work getting everything ironed out.  I also haven't tested the base retaliation component of the new mod release.

FYI the current release required BRUTAL-AI, because it supports different hangar types, I know that Meridian has on his todo list to eventually support this feature.  When he does that should drop the BRUTAL-AI requirement, although I might have to makes some changes if it's implemented differently.

You might be interested in the idea of creating damaged versions of your hangars. Similar to my submod X-Com Files: Damaged Facilities (https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,11428.0.html). Maybe you should even combine them into a single submod.
P.S.: After the new version of OXCE is released, I will immediately post an updated version of this my submod.

Added, plus the precursor Garage mod.

I did notice that this submod is not just three extra hangars, a lot of other facilities have also had their parameters fiddled with. Perhaps consider making 'pure' version?

Since the issue the old Hanger Expansion Mod had was basically incompatibility with BAI, and this version is now in turn incompatible with 'vanilla' OXCE, I figure it's better to leave everything up until the day Meridian gets to variable hangars himself.

Neiwiem,

The TWO hangar mods are compatible to have BOTH.  If you are mid game, my recommendation would be to leave the old mod, and just add the new mod.  Of course, make a backup save before hand if you want to revert or have any issues.

I have had both mods running in a game before and the are compatible, use completely different facility id's.  If you are starting a new game I would only recommend using the NEW mod only.  Honestly I think the old mod was almost more of a cheat because it's very easy to get a lot more hangar space, and the Architecture Building Materials are fairly profitable.  But keep using the old one if that's what you want.

I would recommend listing both mods... long term. Mostly because the two mods are so different I think a lot of people may want the old mods features.  I'm trying to figure out how to label them so people don't get confused.  I don't know if you are planning on having a "CHEAT" section for X-COM Files mods list. But in my opinion the old hangar mod is more of a cheat or enables a MUCH easier play through.

Old Hangar Expansion Pack (standalone facility expansion, research tree only for it's own components)
- General Building Materials
- General Building (1x1 Facility)
- Architecture Building Materials (CHEAT??? - highly profitable)
- 2x2 (Hangar x2)
- 3x3 (Hangar x8) (CHEAT??? - 8 crafts is a bit excessive)

New Facility Expansion Pack (more integrated mod that modifies the research tree to get acces to crafts and hangars)
- General Building - (Removed - I saw this a duplicate to the Corridor which I don't think was originally in xcom-files when this mod was 1st released)
- Garage mod - (Dependency - start with 1x bay garages instead of hangars)
- General Facility Access - (Some restrictive progression to build an "Operational X-COM UFO Defense Base" inline with the spirit of the X-Com Files beginings)
- Starting Base Facilities - (Reduced access because of new progression requirements, slight enhancement to some xcom-files facilities storage and living space)
- Regular Hangar - (Advancement Gated - requires research advancement to get access to)
- 3x3 (Hangar x4) - (Balanced - more realistic to the space of hangar & craft size)
- 3x3 (Hangar x4) - (Now an Aerocraft Shop - requred facility to manufacture crafts)
- Interceptor and Skyrider trees - (A few more minor research gates before getting access to researching and crafting them)
- 2x2 (Hangar x3) - (New Advanced Hangar for Ultimate Base Management)
- ALL New Sprites - (New Pixel Art - no down sampling images, everything done by hand, pixel by pixel)



I've played through a bunch of times, testing up through getting the 2x2 (Hangar x3) and I feel it's well balanced, BUT completely different than the previous mod.  I can't please everyone, but I'm definitely open to getting feedback to help improve and mature this new mod.

From your statement

I'm guessing that you are ask to have a separate mod that just adds the facilities at specific research times without modifying any of the existing X-Com and X-Com Files research trees and facility stats?

Not asking as such, because if I'm going to play with this submod or something like it, I'll retweak everything to my liking anyway. If. Not been on an XCF frequency for a while. :(

I just brought up the fact that your new submod is an extensive affair, and some people (the ones who don't make mods themselves, you know) might want just the hangars, or maybe even just a big hangar and the garage.

Then again, maybe hangars will be in OXCE by summer and officially in XCF by August. One can dream. :)

When I made the original mod I mostly followed Biggieboys version for the original XCOM, and I was also new to X-Com files and looking for an easier play through. 

What I don't want to do is remove the old mod just because of my "subjective opinion" that it makes the game too easy and replace it with something completely different where someone may want the old mods original features.  If it's removed or replaced then it leaves people to scour the internet archives for the old version.

But I would like to encourage the use of the new mod without the old one as I think its more balanced in the spirit of X-Com Files.


I'll think out how best to make a "pure version" that's more of a drop in without the research and other facility property changes.

I am sorry to say, but this translation appears dysfunctional. I can't get it to work using 'ru-RU', only 'ru'. The file is in some Cyrillic format, which means the game has trouble reading it. Maybe a Russian OS can get past this, but for me, I need to convert to UTF-8 first if I don't want a bunch of '?'s. Finally, even then, there are some messed up symbols, like the first 'M' in 'Mегафон', which is 'ћегафон' for me right now.

Granted, I don't use Russian to play the game, and maybe it's user error on my part, but apparently this is not just plug and play at the moment.

Загружая одно и тоже сохранение получаешь каждый раз разные вероятности попадания по цели..........что не понятного ?
В последней версии такого нет.........
Если я всё правильно понял, то проверь настройку "Читтерство с сохранениями" - она влияет на генератор случайных чисел при сейв-скаминге.

If I got it right, check the “Cheat with saves” setting - it affects the random number generator when save-skumming.

Блаагодарствую  ;) :) :) вы были правы !!
А что с Hyper & Trajectory (XCF edition) ?? Говорят очень частично он включён в версию 3.3, возможно из-за этого основной сабмод не хочет работать......

Hyper & Trajectory - you probably didn't delete old version or something. The game can load mods from archives - so old versions of these must be removed from the mods folders.

Title: Re: [submod]Submod list for XCF
Post by: Juku121 on July 22, 2024, 01:57:58 pm
It's not hard. Take a small mod from the list as an example (Expanded Markers, say :) ), and change the metadata and directory structure to fit your mod (probably need just the metadata file and a 'ruleset' directory with 'units_XCOMFILES.rul' inside). Modify the metadata to fit your mod. Then either manually or using file comparison software (WinMerge is free, for example) remove everything that's not '- type:', 'intelligence:' or 'aggression:'. The result should look like this:

Code: [Select]
units:
  - type: STR_SKELETON
    intelligence: 1
    aggression: 3
  - type: STR_LICH
    intelligence: 4
    aggression: 2
  - type: STR_DOOM_IMP
    intelligence: 2
    aggression: 2
  - type: STR_DOOM_PINKY
    intelligence: 0
    aggression: 3

This is because of "trailing whitespaces"... wonder if there is a way to clear all .rul and .yml files in a directory of them with one click of a button?  :-\

Title: Re: [submod]Submod list for XCF
Post by: CrazedHarpooner on February 18, 2025, 02:23:29 pm
Not a single button click, but it can be done via regular expressions in Notepad++ while searching/replacing in files.
Remember to fill in the Directory or select it via the 3 dots.
In find what, I've typed:
Code: [Select]
[ ]+$left the replace with blank and added these filters for the files to be modified
Code: [Select]
*.rul;*.ymlMark the search mode as Regular expression and check/un-check the 'In all sub-folders' as desired.

WARNING: This is very powerful and can make unwanted changes if you're not sure what you're doing, use it at your own risk. I recommend you perform a 'Find all' first to verify it's finding the right things and not including lines that could break the mod. And probably make a copy of everything before making changes, just in case.

Here are Bash and PowerShell commands that remove trailing whitespaces from .rul, .yml, and .nam files in the current directory and all subdirectories, while saving the files in UTF-8 encoding.

Bash:
Code: [Select]
find . -type f \( -name "*.rul" -o -name "*.yml" -o -name "*.nam" \) -print0 | while IFS= read -r -d '' file; do
    iconv -f UTF-8 -t UTF-8 "$file" | sed 's/[[:space:]]*$//' | iconv -f UTF-8 -t UTF-8 > "$file.tmp" && mv "$file.tmp" "$file"
done

PowerShell:
Code: [Select]
Get-ChildItem -Path . -Include *.rul, *.yml, *.nam -Recurse -File | ForEach-Object {
    $content = Get-Content $_.FullName -Encoding UTF8
    $processedContent = $content | ForEach-Object { $_.TrimEnd() }
    $processedContent | Set-Content -Path $_.FullName -Encoding UTF8 -Force
}

X-Com Files Names 2.2 has problems with new OXCE 8.1 causing a good number of errors ranging from closed captions error because same names have ' in them (need to put those names inside of "") to having some files use TAB instead of space.
I have fixed those errors for myself and it all works fine now but i'm wondering if there is any interest in fixed files so not everyone has to do it for himself? And if there is how do i do it? I've never uploaded any files here.
Ofc, this is not my mod, i just fixed errors to make it work with current version so i would like to keep this low profile with all credits going to original author.

You can just attach the updated mod to your post and I can link it in the OP. Not sure how much it's worth, since I doubt a significant number of people use the list over mod.io itself.

Hey! Here I am! Was busy with real life stuff, but adding names from time to time. Just saw my mod got problems with new OXCE update.
Will fix it soon! I would like to finish some countries that gave me trouble finding names. Latvian last names are a pain in the ass. All the baltic countries are a little obscure with their naming rules, but I really like their culture so I would hope to make a nice list for them. Anyways, this update already includes a lot of new content!

Right now, it seems that the following submods are broken due to changeover to OXCE 8.x:
Code: [Select]
'STR_RIOT_VEST_SHIELD_FLASHLIGHT_UC': Missing surface definition for 'HUMAN_AGENT__14__F49_HAIR_FRONT'There are some more that are still broken, but not due to OXCE changes, like MWEP integration and at least one of the old AlexanderVel mods.

Your version for AA still has some trailing whitespaces (e.g. ufosXCFA.rul line 78), a problem that    XannyB's fix doesn't have. Both still have the wrongly indexed hairs and other armour bits that are from 8mono originally, I guess. A quick fix attached.


Interceptors/Interceptions seems to load at least. So does the Natasha/AA compatibility patch.

So the only major problematic mod is Xenophobia, which can work for a while under lazy loading. I guess it'll crash when a plasma turret (or other problematic weapon) fires or is loaded onto the Battlescape.

Here — [link removed]

Hey there! Just letting you know that the link doesn't seem to be working anymore.
I've been trying to find a recent, up-to-date copy of xcom files additions (which is apparently also called arsenal additions?), but it seems like the original author dropped off the face of the earth, and the files on the submod's page seem to be incomplete, only containing the rule set for them, rather than the whole thing. It's understandable why that is, but it'd be nice if either it was all bundled into a complete package, or otherwise had some instructions detailing how to do it, since some people might not really know how to fix the mod to make it functional.

Hopefully this message will be seen by someone soon, I can really tell you folks are putting a ton of time and effort into keeping this list as up to date as possible!
Thanks!
