Note for controller users: a consequence of mods that add additional items to the loot like this, is that you'll often get a scroll bar in the loot popup.

This scroll bar cannot be scrolled with controllers, so you can't see all the items you've just picked up.

It's a minor issue, since I think you'll see all collected loot at the end of the mission too.

Okey. I don't know why, but this version of loot piñatas works . Yes i now, that's only a configuration files, but works 😆
I dug into the config, configured the percentages for myself - everything appears correctly.
I have a lot of mods for loot and not everything drops out normally (psionics ex machina, Tesla loot, mele attachments, shield attachments, tactical suppressors)

Hullo!
I've been using this mod for quite awhile, through two campaigns so far, and Im finding that I get an absolute ton of loot, especially from higher tier enemies. At times as many as a dozen items from a single enemy. I'm not sure if its interacting with some other mod or not, or if this is intended. I figured 'Light' would mean maybe a handful at best, but 6 or so game-months in could fill an entire hangar with weapon attachments and PCSs.
Mod-wise, I'm more or less using the full suite of recommended Mod-Jam mods, plus a ton of soldier customisation things and a few other mods (like this one). None of them would seem to touch loot, but I dont know enough about XCOM modding to have a clue.

In the Loot Pinatas configs is there a way to further tweak the number of drops? I poked through them but nothing immediately stood out, so any advice would be appreciated!

Anyone know if this conflicts with Weapon Upgrades Expanded? It changes some of the weapon attachments and adds in new prototype attachments.

@noone_reaven Loot tables are REALLY difficult to fix once broken. You should try verifying your files maybe you edited some loot table. Also there is this mod that you can use to check if loot is spawing right. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2128067026

I dont know if it is me being metally challenged again, but the game is dropping me loot table load failures into the logfile and in all of my test campaigns no loot will ever be dropped, does any one know what could be happening here, I checked the mod conflicts via AML but there was nothing shown in terms of conflict, im running loot pinatas WOTC, Grimy Loot mod WOTC and the XCOM Trinkets.

This mod does not appear to work with LWotC (Long War of the Chosen) mod. Similar to Grimy's loot mod. Not a complaint, just being informative for anyone who is considering one or the other.

@Jestimac : I don't believe you can check before subscribing. What 99% of the community does is subscribe, wait for Steam to download, run Alternative Mod Launcher, and AML will auto-detect mod conflicts override. Then you decide which mod to keep. Sometimes the overrides don't affect gameplay, always check mods description/FAQS/comments, the dev will have pointed it out. Hope this helps.

I know this will look like a silly question, but how does not check whether another mod adresses the same file/table/template before subscribing ?

If there is loot left not picked up at the end of a mission it currently causes my game to crash. Any thoughts on how to remedy this?

I just completed a WOTC campaign with 104 mods including this one. It all works as expected.

All you need to do is type in loot or loot Pinatas and it will pop up

I think he means that the regular mod is not tag for the war of the chosen. If you limit the search to war of the chosen mods it will not show up.

If you go and do a search for it, it will pop up. Not sure why You would think it’s gone?

where did the other loot pinatas mods go?

@Sunn i tried a few games with a better arsenal, barracks LITE and normal mods for fun, there was a problem with every enemy dropping pinatas, i think those mods override loot drop chances to very high levels and combined with this mod, each mission makes you rich.

how this mod works with A Better Barracks?

nice, a light version.

if you get a lot of items you get a lot of boxes. Few items, few boxes. Sorry thats how it works.

lol i want the burst minus the extensive rewards

@meyerik The boxes bursting out is the best part!

Awesome. Nice addition

read the last line of the description

Will try this on my next run, thanks!

hi shadow79. what is the difference between your light mod and the original Loot Pinatas - WotC from Ashlynne_Lee? double developement ?

I know how to put all of the GrimyLoot mod items onto the drop list, I did it once before but lost it when I wiped my hard drive. I'm rapidly losing interest in this game, prepping for Phoenix Point instead, so I have no desire to make it myself.

@endersblade i already tried getting him to do that ;)

Yes. Each one of those boxes is an item.

if i remove/reduce the bonus loot from it, does it impact the visual aspect of a bunch of boxes exploding out?

You should do one that drops GrimyLoot addons :-P

Good release Shadow!
