Title: [Q] Riot Shield mod for Open XCOM Extended?
Post by: ubai on October 06, 2020, 06:36:01 pm

I was wondering if anyone knew of a mod that adds a Xenonauts style riot shield to Open XCOM.

Thanks in advance!
Matt

X-Com Files has it, and I believe X-Piratez too. It is applied as a separate variant of an armor. Like having Armored Vest and Armored Vest with Shield.

I also believe that there are hand held shields in the following mods:
. 40K (https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/board,25.0.html)
. X-Com United (https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,5724.0.html)
. United Nations Extraterrestrial Combat Command (https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,6404.0.html) (UNEXCOM)
. The TFTD "Sharkquanaut Combat Divers (https://openxcom.mod.io/sharkquanaut-combat-divers)" mod for "The World of (Terrifying) Silence (https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,5566.0.html)" mod.
. "The Endless War (https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,5410.0.html)"

Thanks very much for the replies! Unfortunately, it doesn't look as if a hand held shield can add any armor to the unit holding it, though I don't know much about modding and I may be wrong. :/
