True Primary Secondaries [BETA]

Description
Experimental new version of Primary Secondaries

Please read the description before using this mod!

This mod requires the WotC Highlander and the Ability To Slot Reassignment mod to work. Dont skip the required items!
Dont run this mod together with the old PrimarySecondaries mod. If you use this one deactivate the old one.

So what is the difference to the old Primary Secondaries you might ask yourself.

The old Primary Secondaries mod is generating primary versions of secondary weapon templates. This resulted in some issue like duplicate variants of unique weapons and
the need of attaching upgrades to primary and secondary weapons separately.
It also caused various issues with mods that have single build items like Covert Infiltration and LWOTC.

The new version allows you to equip the exact same melee weapons and pistols/autopistols in the secondary and primary slot.
So e.g. with this mod if you equip the chosen katana in the primary slot you wont be able to equip it in the secondary slot since you have only one unique item you can equip in either slot.
If you have upgraded a pistol with some weapon upgrades you can now just remove the pistol from a secondary slot of a soldier and give it to another soldier in the primary slot.

Sharpshooter, Rangers, Specialist, Grenadier and PsiOperative are enabled to use primary melee weapons, primary pistols and templar sidearms.

FAQ

Do i need to start a new campaign when switching from the old primary secondaries mod?
Its recommended, it might work for running campaigns as well but i dont take any responsibility if this causes issues.

Do mods that require primary secondaries work with this version as well?
All of my and iridars like dual wield melee and dual wielded pistols mod are updated to support the new version but keep in mind that this is a experimental BETA so there are probably some bugs and glitches i havent catched yet.

RPGO is complaining that it needs Primary Secondaries after i switched to this version
You can safely ignore that warning for now.

I play with RPGO, do i also need the Ability To Slot Reassignment mod?
Yes its needed and it is fully compatible with RPGO.

Known Issues

- True Primary Secondaries currently doesnt work in skirmish mode. Support for that will be added soon.

DO you have the Alien Hunters Highlander, if you've got that DLC?

Cannot for the life of me get this to work... Using AML, everything runs fine but the moment I toggle True Primary Secondaries, the game crashes on launch. Got all the dependencies, not sure what I'm doing wrong!

no wait thats just the Akimbo class. Infiltrator still uses ammo
GenericEric 26 May @ 5:45pm 
ok I figured out what the problem was. it was 'Ammo and Vest Slots'. also the pistols don't consume ammo is this a bug or is this a case of the mod is not finished yet?
GenericEric 24 May @ 6:21pm 
I can't change My Infiltrators Pistols. Can't give them Sawed offs or Machine pistols. can't give them a different modded pistol It's either this mods fault or maybe 'Musashi's Mod Fixes' or 'Ability To Slot Reassignment' if I go back to the old Primary Secondaries it works fine

Balistic Shields can't seem to be available for primary with this mod.
Does anyone know a fix ?

Believe you're supposed to be able to use this instead, but I personally I use the Beta version. Though I still haven't had any luck with swapping the primary weapon for any of my dual wielding characters, just the secondary weapons.

i want to use this mod Jedi Class Revised but it requires this one Primary Secondaries want to know if True Primary Secondaries [BETA] can be used in its place since i aready have True Primary Secondaries [BETA]?
robertcox 11 May @ 1:41pm 
Is there some way to change the ammo that faceoff uses when i have a primary pistol equipped? I don't like it using all my ammo
