Hi Dare - thanks for this mod, love it. :steamthumbsup:
But I have a suggestion for "xUseAllAbilities = true" -> split the perks in selection screen with a horizontal divider between vanilla/normal ones and the rest.

Thanks for the answer.
Dare  [author] 24 Mar, 2024 @ 1:41am 
this mod is for vanilla x-com 2, not for wotc.
najizhimo 23 Mar, 2024 @ 10:57pm 
it seems not compatiable with "Community Promotion Screen" mod https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2550561145

ah okay i see. thanks for the info. i worked around it by installing your mod but letting the default perk stay so i managed to get the best of both worlds. thnaks for this mod by the way.
Dare  [author] 3 Apr, 2022 @ 2:25pm 
there is non, you only change the amout of selectable perks to 1
Thimble 3 Apr, 2022 @ 12:33pm 
oh you misunderstand. i like your mod. just was wondering what line in your config file do i need to change to switch from perk choices, to randomly assigned. im aware of the retroactive awc mod however that is now outdated.
Dare  [author] 3 Apr, 2022 @ 11:44am 
then you should subscribe to the mod "retroactive awc" I think was its name and not use mine anymore ^^
Thimble 3 Apr, 2022 @ 11:35am 
tldr; i would like to be assigned a random perk instead of the ability to choose between different perks, but i wish the keep the retroactive function your mod provides.
Thimble 3 Apr, 2022 @ 11:34am 
sorry i did not phrase properly. what i meant was in vanilla sometimes you dont receive 1 because your soldiers AWC rank is predermined before you biuld your AWC and sometimes my soldier misses out on the perks because his AWC rank is early game.
I like your mod's retroactive setting however i would prefer the change the .ini so that i get only 1 random perk vs the current setting where i can pick and select.
Is there a way to change that? while command line would that be?
Dare  [author] 3 Apr, 2022 @ 11:01am 
That u didn't recieve 1 in Vanilla was a bug. I think in the config you can change how many abilities you can get per difficulty.
Thimble 3 Apr, 2022 @ 6:59am 
hi is there a editing i can do to make it such that i get a random perk instead of a selection? i like the randomness, but want to keep the ability to receive a perk versus the vanilla AWC where you may not even receive 1.

Thank you for the mod!
Dare  [author] 9 Apr, 2021 @ 2:14am 
In Vanilla X-COM 2 you are only supposed to get one bonus perk.
PremierVader 9 Apr, 2021 @ 2:00am 
Excellent! Btw I am using the mod and really enjoying it but is there any way to get more than one bonus perk for my characters? I seem to be getting only one here but when I was using the "True Retroactive AWC" mod I used to get multiple bonus perks on my characters (although I couldnt pick which one I got). Can anybody explain whats going on here?
Baraz 6 Apr, 2021 @ 11:46am 
@PremierVader I used it on a game in progress, where most of my squad were rank 3 or 4. It worked fine (with the mod's default settings).
PremierVader 6 Apr, 2021 @ 11:16am 
Many thanks for the info man! Hope I can make changes to a game already in progress.
Dare  [author] 6 Apr, 2021 @ 6:11am 
in your workshop mod folder, look for the folder "1617707619", that is the mod there you find the config.
PremierVader 6 Apr, 2021 @ 4:13am 
Hey man it says "Selection choices limit by difficulty by default", how can I change it in the config of this mod? Where exactly is the config?
Dare  [author] 15 Feb, 2021 @ 5:53am 
Sounds like you have WoTC with mods, if so this mod is for the base version of the game. Check out the desc. for links to other iterations.
[JP] getrad 15 Feb, 2021 @ 4:43am 
Unsure where to click to access the perk menu.

Also, can I select perks to work with my sidearm?
Baraz 25 Jan, 2021 @ 7:28pm 
Excellent ! Works well, no issues, with base game as of Jan. 2021.
kazuya0010 7 Jul, 2020 @ 7:58am 
The mod you were talking about i already had it installed before you mentioned it.
Dare  [author] 6 Jul, 2020 @ 8:36am 
I don't get it - this mod does exist for Wotc and It's in the description with a link to that mod, why ask if I could make this mod for Wotc when I already did it and you "read" the description.
kazuya0010 6 Jul, 2020 @ 7:45am 
Yes i read the description before installing it and i was just asking if you could do that's all. I only installed it due to the perks it has. Anyways i found another way mod that does the same thing this mod is doing.
Dare  [author] 6 Jul, 2020 @ 3:38am 
may be you take the time and read the description you might feel enlightend.
kazuya0010 4 Jul, 2020 @ 7:55pm 
Can you please make it compatible with WOTC?
Skeptic Viperino 24 May, 2020 @ 11:57am 
I can't seem to be able to find this mod in config options, but since every time you check the AWC skill when selecting it changes if you escape out of it and try to choose again. I can select what I want ^^
Skeptic Viperino 23 May, 2020 @ 2:00am 
Oh I can? That's perfect then. :steamhappy:
Dare  [author] 23 May, 2020 @ 1:51am 
u can disable that behavoir in the config of this mod
Skeptic Viperino 23 May, 2020 @ 1:28am 
That's a bummer. I would have liked to have all available on legendary as I have beaten it on the same difficulty I wanted to have some leeway and have some fun. :/
Dare  [author] 23 May, 2020 @ 1:24am 
yes, if I remember correctly on legendary you only get 4.
Skeptic Viperino 23 May, 2020 @ 1:00am 
@Dare Hey. Does this "Selection choices limit by difficulty by default" mean there will be less available choices at higher difficulty?
Shavy 3 Sep, 2018 @ 4:23pm 
does it work with psi ops?
Hovah 11 Mar, 2018 @ 9:30am 
lol :D
Dare  [author] 11 Mar, 2018 @ 4:29am 
lol
Your comment made my day. :D
Hovah 10 Mar, 2018 @ 7:19pm 
you should put the "WOTC" version higher up, i tried to make this one work for like an hour and believe me when i say im not a tech retard, but i didnt think the other link would be this far down..
Iron Mantis 4 Dec, 2017 @ 10:36pm 
Well actually, tried using "Enable/Disable Any AWC Perk" and its actually working. I can even select Modded class skills.

Anyway, this is a great mod and its very versatile.
Dare  [author] 4 Dec, 2017 @ 10:34pm 
not possible to add specific skills
Iron Mantis 4 Dec, 2017 @ 9:41pm 
how do I add and remove awc abilites from the selectables that are not included. I want to add squadsight and other abilites to the selection without fully unlocking every ability in the game.
debussy0897 25 Nov, 2017 @ 8:35pm 
thanks!
Gwynbleiid 24 Sep, 2017 @ 5:50pm 
oh, that make sense XD didn't know that
Dare  [author] 23 Sep, 2017 @ 11:02pm 
I removed MCM support from this mod.
Gwynbleiid 23 Sep, 2017 @ 7:40pm 
Hi @Dare, i've noticed that the MCM doesn't show your mod to change the settings, could it be from load order? I currently have 76 mods, MCM is 34 in load order and ABAWC is 58, beside that it work perfectly, thanks for the mod, and i don't have war of the chosen
foszae 19 Sep, 2017 @ 12:17pm 
Top notch!
Dare  [author] 6 Sep, 2017 @ 5:00pm 
the mod is kinda finsihed, but it won't save the changes after a reload :(
Dare  [author] 6 Sep, 2017 @ 2:44pm 
the mod is for all the classes cuz they changed how the "hidden" abilities work completly.
MaCC165 6 Sep, 2017 @ 1:07pm 
new mod works just for the 3 heros classes?
and sad lwpp seems not to be updated for wotc
Dare  [author] 6 Sep, 2017 @ 12:39pm 
Man you guys are gonna be disappointed after you see how few crossclassabilities the 3 hero classes actually can choose from :D
