Dirge, do you know that, "SPARK Custom Class Support" is mod for Shen Gift DLS? If you add this mod will be "GlsRunning == 1". Х)

i don't think so. Its been a long time since I played this pack and there have been several updates to the game.

I was getting the GlsRunning == 1 error too, so I went through the mods adding 20 at a time to find the bad egg; Spark Custom Class Support. Disabling it removed the crashing on loading the game after the new game intro. Hopefully that one wasn't important to your overhaul...

In this mods config directory. so you have to use the "872274632" as the file name in your modconfig folder. This is why i did not include it. Because you have to find the folder, find the file, then edit an ini. But I don't know which ini you want to change or what you want to change. thats a personal prefference kinda thing.

Q. Can I use this without replacing the Long War 2 classes?
A. Yes. Remove all lines starting with "+LWClasses" from XComGameCore.ini in the mod's Config directory.

Specifically what .ini's should you configure if you wish to have the three additional classes, as I'd love to have everything this pack can offer.

Awesome, thanks man. This pack is amazing and you are amazing for combing through all this stuff and getting it all to mesh well!

I will say that my personal modpack here, makes the game incredibly harder, but also makes it more leniant. You can screw up a lose a whole squad and keep playing witha chance to win. Which is good because its way more likely you will lose a whole squad. Seems blanced to me.

well if you want as many possible classes as you can get you can sadjust the settings of each one as a couple of them disable classes. Specificlly the big class pack. I forget the name offhand. But they describe how to change that on there pages. It waters down the really strong classes by making it less likely you will get them. Biotic and some of the innately psychic classes are really strong. Making it more likely your guy will ge a guy with regular skills and a gun instead of a super solider makes the game harder though so keep that in mind. I mean its really up to you. Thats the beauty of it.

I made sure to adjust that one, any other configs I should adjust to get the best out of this pack?

Yeah no problem man. I hope you enjoy it. Don't forget to setup the configs correctly. At the very least setup the concealed turn timer.

After about 2 hours of messing with it, I fixed the crashing. What worked was (after getting the mod loader) I activated everything in packs of 10-20 at a time starting with LW2 as the only mod at first. Now I have just about everything loaded minus what I didn't really want/need and now it's working just fine! I think loading everything all at once was the problem. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

Thanks for responding so quickly! Mod loading tool? Sorry, I don't know what that is.

It means you aren't using the mod loading tool or you don't have enough ram to run all this crap together.

Hey Wakko, upon starting a new game, it crashes with the message Pure virtual function being called while application was running (GIsRunning = = 1). Any idea what this means?

Thats a mod problem. I can't fix that. They didn't add in support for the other mods. Since WoTC dropped there hasn't been any change either. Wish it all worked right.

Well, it seems like the legacy version works just as fine, but I do have troubles with some other mods here, the game works fine and I haven't had any crash or 'serious' issues, but there's still a couple things that really bothers me, mainly the fact that some weapon upgrades don't seem to work at all (the melee weapon upgrades don't work at all for the primary versions' of the shinobi/samurai/whatever is the name of that psiops melee one, as well as repeaters on any gun whatsoever, and the scope on some of them like the gunner's cannon/SAW)
I mean, I understand that these issues most certainly aren't related to you but I still feel the need to bitch about it

i play this all the time. I have had zero issues. But if you play and have issues let me know.

Why are you using the WotC version of mod config menu and not the legacy one? Am I missing something?
Also is there any issues between this collection and stop wasting my time? (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1124175771)

I'll check it out

Here's something I like to use personally. The Numeric Health Display Mod. Not sure if it fits your idea, but I'd hate to play without it.

ah np man. I really wanted this to be a definitive version of Long War 2. And when I was finisehd I wanted everyone else to have the ability to get this without alot of work and experimenting. If you find any bugs or problems or new mods that are great or suggestions at all just hit me up.

Just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate the work you put into this. Very much

thats just telling you that the game has updated the ini files. you have to restart to allow the update to take effect and should happen about 2-5 time before it is done. This is normal and won't happen every time, just the first time until the ini files are updated correctly by your system.

how about this https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1141679719

the link you posted doesn't work. can you send it again?

There is this strange warning screen that popped up (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1141679719) . Do you have any idea, what could that be ? I havent played this game in a while, so I am wondering if I should have done something before I started it.

There is also a WotC Modpack that is very good. If anyone is interested just search collections for wakko and it should pop right up. I am just glad that the 400 hours or so I put into this game can benefit other players as well.

ok. thanks for the info. Will try and see how it goes. I had to remove some mods anyway due to not having any of the DLCs.

its not an issue but the more mods you load the longer the load times which are already pretty high and the memory leak is real bro. Its a vanilla deficency and its not game breaking but when you get hit with it you have to close the game, restart it, and probably run your last turn again. Alot of times you will end a mission and you will just be staring at the leg of the ship. So while cosmetics work fine, the more you add the more time the game is going to take.

I dunno how many people asked but how does this collection mesh with adding more soldier customization options ? I dont think it should be much of an issue, but still asking just in case. Things like new clothes, hairstyles, armor looks etc.

yes. and yes.

So this is a real alternative for WOTC if you want to play the game WITH LW2? Is LW2 included?

Love it! downloaded and started playing your mod collection. One question, where can i find TURNS_BEFORE_CONCEALMENT= ? so that i can change it to 5 like you recommend, ive had no luck finding it.

Thanks man. I spent alot of time on it and I really wanted to help others who just don't have the time to do all this crap. I know the only real problem with this is the game can suffer from memory buffering but I have found that if you simply close the game and restart by loading the last save it clears the cache and you can continue playing like nothing ever happened. Its a vanilla engine definency and I ahve spoken to three people who ahve 32 gigs of memory and they have never had the problem. I am running 16 gigs of memory and only have the problem at the very end of the campaign. Takes about 3 minutes to restart the game and load up the save and then i can play for about 2 or 3 horus and then it will memory crash and i reload again and continue for another couple of hours. Anyone playing with 8 gigs?

This version is the best I have seen :) for me

Hea NP man, glad I could help. I just hope someone else benefits from the hours and hours or play testing, adding, removing, and optimizing all this crap. This way they don't have to do it themselves and can dive in and enjoy some of the crazier versions of the game that can be created. Xcom 2 is such a great game and then engine is extremely flexible.

damn, missed that one. thanks for the heads up!

Not sure why you wrote that? Is it in reference to something I am missing? I have a WotC Overhaul in collections as well if you would like to play WotC.

some authors are posting war of the chosen compatible versions separately.

i just wanted to make sure we were thinking of the same thing.

exactly what I am refering too !!

Can you explain further? I think you are refering to the utility slot items. I Don't really like them either. Seems unfair. Its definetly not something you can just put in your pocket. I will remove it as well from the pack.

great collection, but I had to remove Utility slot sidearms because it spammed my engineers build wweapon tab with double entries

Thats a no on dynammic difficulty because the begining of the game becomes almost impossible.

I was thinking about adding in some dynamic difficulty mods and am in the process of testing them on legend difficulty. I would like to play several campaigns though before adding them in. This pack is pretty perfect right now and I don't want to screw that up.

mage juggernaut and the other thing are in lw2 shadow ops pack. i use the individual ones. so you would have to go into the file and make sure all the normal classes are included. The mage is in Richards Class Pack and must be enabled along with marksman.

Which mod includes the juggernaut and ?something else? Mage is in Richards Classes, for anyone else looking for it.
