Troubleshooting / Re: Can't research laser weapons anymore

Well, iirc the final mod pack puts the laser tech research behind other weapon research techs. Thing is, those earlier researches from that mod don't show up aswell since it's not installed right now. In addition, both the mod folder and the install folder are fresh installs with (to my idea) absolutely no traces of that mod left.

Troubleshooting / Can't research laser weapons anymore

« on: March 04, 2018, 11:49:29 am »

So here is the thing,  normally at a new game you can research three different things: Motion Scanners, Medkits and Laser Weaponry.
I used a clean UFO defense folder, The newest nightly: openxcom_git_master_2018_03_03_0246 and completely wiped my user folder in the ''mydocuments'' file. (Since my last playthrough on this was with final mod pack).

Starting a new game blatantly omits the option to research laser weapons for some reason. I've already tried opening research.dat; which just gives me gibberish with notepad, notepad++, word and excel and starting a new game with it deleted so it generates a new one.

None of these methods seems to fix my issue.

I really hope someone can help me with this because I can't imagine getting back into this game without my trusty laser rifles.
