I never had such problems with the regular launcher until was removed, also not fan of aml, steam already gives two options, why having to work downloading installing and so when u o my wanna play and have fun?

Don't use the game's default launcher, use AML instead. Default launcher had issues with mods for ages now, as far as I know.

please fix Russian localization file, it's in UTF-8 encoding, and should be UCS-2 LE BOM

They start showing up at Force Level 3 I believe, so fairly early. But yeah, like Deadput said the more new enemy mods you have the more likely they are to out-compete themselves for a spot in a pod.

It's all RNG they show up when they show up just like any other enemy, of course they would be less likely to show up if you have dozens and dozens of enemy mods.

When n where do these start to show up? I have it installed along with a couple other new enemy mods... The others have shown up but I've not spoted the Sentry yet?

Ah ok bummer, i can't imagine it would be easy anyway, yeah i use ABA, another excellent mod. However the units are not quite the same, the advent gunner from LW2 used a mag cannon which looked and sounded awesome (like an MG42) and was an area suppresion/normal suppression specalist

Glad you enjoyed it. No plans for Advent Gunner, to be honest I don't even have SDK installed at the moment. That being said DerBK's "A Better Advent" had an unit equivalent to LW2 Gunner... although ABA does come with a lot of other stuff you might or might not like. Worth trying out if you haven't played with it before at any rate.

And probably worth noting that there is a community run project to make LW2 for WotC so we might see it again in the future :) (How far in the future though is anyone's guess)

Any chance you could do the Advent Gunner too? that unit was awesome. Area suppression was great too, certainly miss that ability and long war 2 in general.. Great mod btw

To add to what Malek said: JohnnyLump said some time ago that they work on a laser, coil and smg mod but have problems with some base game assets that don't work with WotC.

Updating the smaller mods might not be as trivial as it seems. For one they were content cut out of LW2 proper, meaning that any work done on them probably needs to consider the bigger mod codebase all the same. And then there is the fact that not everything works the same for WotC. When porting Sentry I had to do a bunch of guesswork to make Ready For Anything flyovers work because Firaxis changed how that part of the code is handled. And I had to ask Wilko for a model recolor, because LW2 unit assets use some special trickery that I wasn't able to make work in WotC SDK. DerBK had to ditch Drones from ABA because their animations needed some files that were in vanilla but don't exist in WotC. There's probably more of issues like this that need to be worked around to bring LW2 content back.

That is true if they were just making a WOTC LW2 but I simply meant their smaller mods that they made before hand before LW2 such as the smg pack and the Alien pack.

If they were going to be updated they already would have by now but we have to rely on unofficial ones instead which in itself is not a problem but it's just a shame that's all.

Contract was probably written long before WotC was even considered, and therefore only accounted for vanilla LW1. Besides if they have contract for a WotC version they wouldn't be able to say anything about it until 2k allows them to. JohnnyLump mentioned on their forums it was like that for original LW2 release (they make it, but 2k controls how and when reveal happens)

Well one step closer to having the LW Aliens in WOTC I suppose, since the Long War team are sitting on their butts apparently doing nothing, so much for that contract with the developers.
