Oh and you could replace the Assasin Chosen with Kai Lang

Is there any way you can change some of the more advanced units like muton to use the various Reaper enemies available? It woudl be nice to have a complete ME conversion seeing as Cerberus were literally just puppets of the reapers, so at lower levels you fight Cerb troops then as the more advanced stuff comes out its revealed they are Reapers.

Either way great mods im currently playing an ME themed playthrough so had me thinking the first mission i came across mutons

@Mycroft
I'm sure something does unfortunately

Something has to conflict with this mod because i've tried using it across two playthroughs and i'm still fighting the vanilla advent troopers. This mod IS managing to replace their guns, but everything else is all vanilla.

@a3
Ahh gotcha, pretty cool!

@NightNinja54
For all advent units which you have set the gender as male, I wasn't able to change their skins due to all of my uniforms being female. But for priests and phantoms, I was able to change their appearance

@a3
Ah, can you change advent skins with the appearance manager?
Oscar 16 May, 2023 @ 4:04pm 
I wanna make advent good looking girls😏
NightNinja54  [author] 16 May, 2023 @ 10:54am 
@a3
Not sure how these would be related?
Oscar 14 May, 2023 @ 11:44pm 
Hi, thanks for making this mod, can I use Iradar's appearence manager uniform on this mod?
NightNinja54  [author] 25 Nov, 2022 @ 7:03pm 
@The Commander
Glad to hear! me and some other modders have made a bunch :)
and I haven't tried my hand at that unfortunately but sounds like a cool idea
The Commander 23 Nov, 2022 @ 11:45am 
Absolutely awesome mod, big thanks!
I haven't played XCOM in years but had to give it a new try with all the Mass Effect stuff, that is now available!
Now, is there any way to replace that hideous ADVENT dropship with the Cerberus UT-47 Kodiak shuttle? :D

@DSU-firebird929
Unsubscribing from the mod should take care of it
DSU-firebird929 8 Sep, 2022 @ 8:50pm 
is there a way to remove this mod and go back to the vanilla advent soldiers?

@NightNinja54 You're welcome!

@Corvus6662
In the tutorial gameplay? Yes. In the pre-rendered cut scenes, no.

@Grey Shoutmon
Thx!

@Womling Terri, The Warden
Are you subscribed to the associated required mod?
Corvus6662 31 May, 2021 @ 5:23pm 
Doe sthis mod also affect the Cernerus Trooper and Captain in the tutorial cutscenes?
T'erissk 18 Sep, 2020 @ 2:37am 
@L. Clarke and Rapsutin's Simp, Try verfiying the game's cache files. That way the game knows that it is okay to integrate the mod files. Some conversion mods require you to do this.
The Warden 2 Jun, 2020 @ 2:34pm 
Same here
Terrions 1 May, 2020 @ 12:01am 
for some reason none of the cerberus replacement stuff works. I don't have another enemy replacement stuff it just doesn't seem to work.
Megaranger 1 Apr, 2020 @ 10:44am 
Thx

Megaranger 26 Mar, 2020 @ 12:16am 
Is it possible to get the Armor-look without the other game changing settings?
Lextella 21 Jan, 2020 @ 10:49am 
I had the same problem @Ravenite has, and managed to fix it by verifying the game cache integrity, booting up, and then rebooting the game.
NightNinja54  [author] 14 Jan, 2020 @ 5:38am 
@Ravenite
That's strange. I have not seen this issue replicated myself, unfortunately. I would recommend unsubscribing/resubscribing to both to reset the files.
Ravenite 14 Jan, 2020 @ 4:54am 
The Original mod? that just adds them as new trooper, Yeah.
NightNinja54  [author] 13 Jan, 2020 @ 6:37pm 
@Ravenite
Do you have the required mod subscribed as well? That contains the necessary assets
NightNinja54  [author] 13 Jan, 2020 @ 6:36pm 
@Ravenite


@Taco
Hey Taco, this is a side effect of either: an old update, or having one mod turned on before the other. One set of corpses is from the "added" enemy, and the other is from the "replacer" enemy. You're safe to ignore, but I recognize that semi inconvenient.
Ravenite 13 Jan, 2020 @ 9:00am 
Ummm... they keep showing up as bald men with strange faces and Xcom armour, sometimes they just have the cerberus shoulders
Taco 10 Jan, 2020 @ 9:36pm 
I'm really loving this and the other Cerberus mods!

I did run into an issue with corpses where I had 2 different stacks of Cerberus Trooper corpses. One with 4 and the other with I think 10 or more. The main problem is that I need 6 for Plated Armor and it doesn't seem recognize the stack of 10, just the stack of 4.

@Birb
Hi Birb, the Cerberus centurions will be using the mattock going forward -

Birb 22 Dec, 2019 @ 1:43pm 
just curious but will any of the troopers have the mattock? i did enjoy the tactical look of a squad of cerbs with it. if they're removed then it's ok
NightNinja54  [author] 14 Dec, 2019 @ 1:05pm 
@The Reaper
Enjoy!

@VertigoJockey
I'll have to ask Lord_Poncho, the Hornet modder

@Dacie
Yes, I would like to
Instant Caulk 14 Dec, 2019 @ 11:03am 
Very nice and well done, im gonna use this in my mass effect play through thank you!
VertigoJockey 14 Dec, 2019 @ 10:06am 
Silly nitpicky question but will the Hornet be replacing the Mattock anytime soon now its out?
Dacie 13 Dec, 2019 @ 3:09pm 
Any chance you'll add more cerberus troop types? like the engineers, snipers and assasins?
NightNinja54  [author] 13 Dec, 2019 @ 3:03pm 
@RustyDios
Great question. The advent trooper and it’s equipment, corpse and research isn’t actually replaced. The models are swapped and the research is renamed - rather than replacing everything and causing the exact issues you describe.
RustyDios 12 Dec, 2019 @ 10:52pm 
So, if this mod replaces ALL Advent Troopers with Cerberus troopers... and replaces the corpses and autopsy .... how does it handle the multitude of mods that might require a Trooper Corpse or any things that require them (Hybrid materials, NanoScale vests, Predator Armour and EXO Suits) ?
NightNinja54  [author] 12 Dec, 2019 @ 5:17pm 
@Dacie
That’s right. More specifically, the advent trooper unit with a Cerberus trooper unit.

@Ravenite
We shall see :) as long as my fellows Cavily, Poncho, and others support it.

@spunkn, @Vulpes,
Thank you for the kind words
Dacie 12 Dec, 2019 @ 8:36am 
So what does this mod exactly do? It replaces advent with cerberus troops?
Ravenite 12 Dec, 2019 @ 6:56am 
Any plans to expand this into a total overhaul of Advent, Heck get some husks as the lost.
Ravenite 11 Dec, 2019 @ 8:41am 
Heck yeah!
Abdulla Babulla 11 Dec, 2019 @ 4:21am 
Not up my alley, but a really great idea. Good work!
Spunkn 10 Dec, 2019 @ 10:13pm 
Wow, that was fast. This is incredible! Keep up the sweet work!
