Thank you for putting space elves in my game which was severely lacking in them. I love elves <3

Could be something to do with CI. Couldn't say for sure as I don't use that mod myself.

As far as I can tell from the description, if you have the plated armor schematic unlocked and purchased you should have the Eldar armors as well. If not then it is probably a conflict.

Just checked and it’s the same with the dark eldar mod. Upgraded weapons work perfectly but can’t get access to upgraded armours. Not checked spark armour or weapons yet as not unlocked them.
easilyamused2 25 Aug, 2022 @ 1:07am 
The research is complete and the initial mesh, heavy aspect and rune armour are still options to equip but no option in engineering to purchase the upgraded versions. Would it possibly be because I am running the covert infiltration mod where you purchase individual items for soldiers? Eldar weaponry works fine with this mod and I can purchase the upgraded weapons fine individually.

Hmm. It's been a bit so I don't remember exactly how I set this one up.

Assuming you have built the plated armor schematic, check the armors available to equip. The eldar armors should be in there.
easilyamused2 23 Aug, 2022 @ 2:59pm 
I don’t know if I’m missing something really obvious here but I’ve just completed plated armour but can’t see anywhere to upgrade the armour.
MostlyHarmless  [author] 26 Jan, 2022 @ 1:29pm 
Sure thing. Just about all the enemies in A2I are probably full models. If you're in the XCOM2 modding discord you should be able to find me in there.
Feniks 26 Jan, 2022 @ 12:19pm 
Thanks, out if interest can i link up with you in discord? I want to confirm some things around how the A2I mobs are coded if its by component or whole skins?
MostlyHarmless  [author] 25 Jan, 2022 @ 5:09pm 
I have no problem with you using my stuff.

If you use content from Advent2Empire though, you'll need to ask DimDim (I think he goes by Zero on Steam now) if you want to his Space Marine/Sisters of Battle armors, which are originally from the Armours of the Imperium mod.
Feniks 22 Jan, 2022 @ 11:22pm 
On a second question, how do you feel if i use your mod resources to release a LWOTC conversion where you play as Eldar against Imperium (with a smattering of Orcs, Chaos and Dark Eldar in the mix)
Feniks 22 Jan, 2022 @ 11:20pm 
@MostlyHarmless how hard would it be to rip the Warp Spiders from Dawn of War 3? Im assuming there is a technical reason you didnt do this already
MostlyHarmless  [author] 16 Aug, 2021 @ 7:38am 
Afraid not. I don't really have any interest in LWOTC.
I'm Maru 15 Aug, 2021 @ 9:00am 
Long War of Chosen (LWOTC) - planned?
Dusky 13 Apr, 2020 @ 6:37am 
Love the mod!
Minor bug: Several of the helmets have plumes controlled by the hair colour, but while they are equipped the hair colour is locked, meaning you have to unequip/equip the helmet back and forth to get the colour just right.
Spookyfish 10 Dec, 2019 @ 11:53am 
I hear the lamentations of the poor forgotten Warp Spiders...
Dorunek 7 Dec, 2019 @ 12:31pm 
no hope for a fix to the male bodysuit fingers, right? the female bodysuit fingers are okay, so I was wondering if it could really be that hard to fix them...
Exilios 10 Nov, 2019 @ 10:19pm 
if you ever get the chance to keep working on this and your other Eldar mods would love to see the addition of warp spiders, they are my favourite unit. ^-^
Hallows Elf 26 Oct, 2019 @ 2:46pm 
First off nice mod, eldar are my favorite race in 40k, but gotta echo the sentiments of SolidKeeper, but it's gotta be a pain to rig all this up, but if you want some ripped models from DoW 2 or some elf heads from the witcher 3 for head options I'd be happy to toss you a few I got when I was playing around with warband modding

Trouble with the DoW2 models is they're fairly dated, model wise they're fine outside of the hands that don't have individual fingers considering it's a strategy game and that amount of detail wasn't necessary, plus the textures would look a bit muddy in comparison to XCOM's.
Regardless glad you made the mod.
Brother Severus 11 Oct, 2019 @ 2:51am 
Will there ever be a Drukhari mod?
Would be great to see some Incubi slicing imperials ^^
stingerone 8 Oct, 2019 @ 9:46pm 
Do you think an eldar flag pack would be possible?
Archi 8 Oct, 2019 @ 1:23pm 
please make the armor in the style of the Tau!!! Me and a bunch of guys Tau fans are ready to chip in if anything
SuperSolid64 6 Oct, 2019 @ 12:13pm 
Relaying the information.
The Eldar armor, generally, looks great, you put effort into it. There are clipping issues here and there, specifically with helmets, but it's no biggie. The voices are also of high quality, I managed to compare the voices from one mod with Taldeer voicepack and your Farseer one, and your version is cleaner and better.
The "biggie" is that the armor itself looks like plastic and very low-poly compared to other modded armor pieces, such as Stenchfury Modular for example. The helmets are REALLY oversized, and should be scaled down, at least by a third, maybe even more. The Eldar bodysuit cosmetic is not intuitive to find, it probably should be moved to torso gear.
You probably should look at the models people ripped for Source Film Maker, maybe you could ask them to use those models. Or rip them from DoW 2/3, because models from Eternal Crusade are not that good in terms of quality and general feeling.

No Harlequins yet. Harlequins are Dark Eldar are possibilities though.

Pistols should come in normal and left hand variants. The normal version will equip to the pistol holster socket like any other pistol.

There is no regular Shuriken catapult, just the Avenger and Twin-Linked versions.
Moose Cannon 5 Oct, 2019 @ 6:01pm 
Awesome mod! Thanks to chaps like you, XCOM 2 continues to be one of the best Warhammer 40k games.

Couple of quick questions. First, there's a Harlequin voice but I can't find Harlequin armor; is that in the works or is it somewhere and I'm a potato? Second, is there a "normal" shuriken catapult or just the Dire Avengers' version? Third, when I give dudes a two-handed weapon like a shuriken catapult and also a left-hand pistol, they're always holding the pistol even when they're using the SC - is there some workaround or should I just not give them sidearms?

Once again, thank you for this lovely mod.
GUA 2 Oct, 2019 @ 6:58pm 
OMG. The armor is amazing. And finally I can spec out my Spark as an Alien or construct. Fantastic job.
Ben 1 Oct, 2019 @ 8:01am 
Four pages of comments and no Aeldari bullshit. Just Eldar. I'm happy. And I like this due to sheer awesome and hilarity. Glory to the psychic space pixie fairies and their badass constructs.
Hod and vampire co 30 Sep, 2019 @ 6:33pm 
space elves best elves also is the dark eldars in works or nah either way this looks super good
great work
MostlyHarmless  [author] 30 Sep, 2019 @ 3:12pm 
Looked into the Head material issue a bit more. There was a bugged mat which is fixed now with the patch. I was wrong about the “More Skin Colors” mod being necessary but the WOTC Community Highlander *is* necessary. Required mods are updated.

If using helmets, you’ll want invisible heads in order to avoid clipping. SW Alien Head Pack Extra has one. I think there are other mods that add them as well.

All armor pieces are tintable but there aren’t craftworld-specific pieces except for the Rune Armor leg addons (which as Cael pointed out, the weight painting on these distorts the symbols), Altansar, Biel-Tan, Iyanden, Saim-Hann and Ulthwe are included.
[IPL]Grimuald 30 Sep, 2019 @ 11:33am 
Xenos scum!
Valvatorez(Cox Cable = awful ISP 30 Sep, 2019 @ 2:26am 
Does this have Altansar and Ynnari patterns? As their the only Eldar who are allied with the Imperium.
VoidLight 29 Sep, 2019 @ 3:19pm 
I still have that problem even after downloading the requirements but I assumed a new game with verifying my catch and stuff would fix it but the results was the same. Anyway I will continue to progress with human heads, the clipping on the rune armor isnt THAT bad and isnt too noticeable outside of the customization screen.
Ze Dicker Max 29 Sep, 2019 @ 8:40am 
So i'm using the One milion colors mod https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1091135816&searchtext=million%27 which is required for the AOTI mods, which doesn't plays nice with the more skin colors mod so I'm still stuck with the head following hair color
Judy Alvarez 28 Sep, 2019 @ 2:16pm 
Amazing!, I hope some modder makes something like that but with Tau
TheLocalTechPriest 28 Sep, 2019 @ 10:41am 
Any chance we could get Harlequin gear? It would work great with Rangers and Templars.
Skalmar 28 Sep, 2019 @ 9:46am 
<3 my damn space elfs :D
Misty 27 Sep, 2019 @ 7:22pm 
So, how does one get the middle-gap in the robes to actually display a house symbol rather than a garbled mess? Or has that been addressed in this update? Same question for the invisible heads showing that the helmets don't meet the body mesh? Thrown-scythe-thing sound loop issue? Eldar heads clipping through Eldar helmets (back of head or ears on virtually all helmets)?

The mod has potential to be great. The issue with the fingers is impressively understated and the animations on things like the shield or off-hand pistol are... jank at best... but I bet this would be up there beside AOTI and Advent Empire if you just had someone willing to do the physics and polish on it.

Great job, but in its current state, its a little too Jank for me. Keep up the good work though!
VoidLight 27 Sep, 2019 @ 2:05pm 
@roland3710

Thanks, I needed more skill colors myself(got sick of playing with the R/B/G sliders).

Now just need that sound loop fix for the thrown weapons and its golden!
MostlyHarmless  [author] 27 Sep, 2019 @ 1:33pm 
Did some quick tests. It seems the More skin colors mod (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=629368512) is required for the Eldar head mats to work correctly.

I have no idea why.
No Mic Tweetus 27 Sep, 2019 @ 1:28pm 
To answer your question earlier Roland, yes, I have the head hair color tint as well, we appreciate the work though.
VoidLight 27 Sep, 2019 @ 12:42pm 
Also I noticed there isnt any Eldar Flag packs, so far I just use the Templar flag for all my Eldar troops. Any chance you could upload a few of them?
VoidLight 27 Sep, 2019 @ 12:38pm 
@roland3710

This is for both Male and Female heads. I have no hair/skin color mods but I do have face mods and some new hair style mods but they shouldn't be the cause because the heads are stand alone.

Thanks for looking into this, I really want that open helm farseer appearance so far I will just deal with the minor clipping on the human heads but I will miss the pointy ears..
zayniroth 27 Sep, 2019 @ 9:15am 
reallt good work ! but i think the helmets are a bit too big
Ze Dicker Max 27 Sep, 2019 @ 7:27am 
the mods are good but bit far from perfect I would say, could use some improvements on the models, maybe contact the AOTI guys, they might help out
toaster tech 27 Sep, 2019 @ 5:31am 
the problem with the head tinting is an issue for both heads, at least for me
MostlyHarmless  [author] 27 Sep, 2019 @ 4:50am 
Thanks for reminding me of that. The Eldar models have scrawny necks so regular human heads will clip through them. Solvable with either invisible heads or using the Eldar heads (which I'll look into that hair tinting whole head bug. Is everyone getting that?)
No Mic Tweetus 27 Sep, 2019 @ 4:10am 
It seems that you have to use invisible heads in order to get the neck guard visible.
MostlyHarmless  [author] 27 Sep, 2019 @ 4:00am 
I'll look into the head tinting issue. Hair color should not tint the entire head. Is this a problem for male, female or both heads?
VoidLight 26 Sep, 2019 @ 10:34pm 
Not sure why but the hair color seems to control the skin color of the Eldar head. This rests in the head being nearly unusable because most hair colors are far too alien/vibrant and also the hair will pretty much blend into the face..
Brother Severus 26 Sep, 2019 @ 10:33pm 
I hope that you will someday think about a Dark Eldar mod as well.
Brayknight 26 Sep, 2019 @ 10:17pm 
This is perfect!! FANTASTIC BUT YOU KNOW I AM WAITING FOR THE BEST ARMY OF THE TAU

HONOR TO THE TAU!
