[WOTC] Iridar's ADVENT Arsenal - Vanilla Balance

Description
This is a purely cosmetic mod that replaces the appearance of weapons carried by some of the ADVENT forces with new models from the ADVENT Arsenal - Ghost Templates mod.

The main goal of this mod is to make the "Advanced" and "Elite" variants of ADVENT units more visually distinct.

LIST OF UNITS AFFECTED BY THIS MOD
Advanced Trooper -> ADVENT Battle Rifle Elite Trooper -> ADVENT Battle Rifle Advanced Officer -> ADVENT Battle Rifle Elite Officer -> ADVENT Plasma Rifle ADVENT General (M2) -> ADVENT Battle Rifle ADVENT General (M3) -> ADVENT Plasma Rifle ADVENT Shieldbearer -> ADVENT Sonic Cannon Elite Shieldbearer -> ADVENT Sonic Cannon Heavy Lancer -> ADVENT Riot Shotgun Elite Lancer -> ADVENT Plasma Shotgun Advanced Priest -> ADVENT Sonic Rifle Elite Priest -> ADVENT Sonic Rifle Advanced Sniper* -> ADVENT Long Lance Elite Sniper* -> ADVENT Plasma Lance

* - Advanced Sniper and Elite Sniper are added by the [WoTC]ADVENT Sniper mod. That mod also allows you to build the Sniper Rifles used by the ADVENT Snipers, and ADVENT Arsenal will replace appearance of those weapons as well.

REQUIREMENTS

[WOTC] Iridar's Template Master - Core is required.
[WOTC] Iridar's ADVENT Arsenal - Ghost Templates is required.

Safe to add or remove mid-campaign. WOTC-only, no vanilla version planned.

CONFIGURATION

This mod is entirely configurable through various configuration files in:
..\steamapps\workshop\content\268500\2438979621\Config

COMPATIBILITY

Incompatible with [WOTC] Reduced Alien Weapon FX (v1.01), as it replaces the enemy weapons as well.

@TrooperCoon
Yes

considering some aba enemies uses advent arsenal weapons without ini changes, does that mean the weapons are changed if they use the same weapon template? like for example ABA advent heavy and demolitionist uses a normal trooper assault rifle and they are changed to this mod's model instead without any ini edits

See comments above.

is there a way to make so that aba enemies carries these weapons instead of their base weapons?

Thanks, I just copied the data and replaced the changed weapons.

Not sure what "folder" you're talking about, but it's not relevant anyway. This mod works by replacing the appearance of weapons specified in config, using Template Master. If you want the mod to affect more weapons you'll have to add more configuration. You can find Template Master documentation her: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2363090327

@Iridar I have several ADVENT enemy mods, like ABA, RM's Mass Effect enemy mods, and others. How would I get the skins onto their weapons? I am asking because Deadput's reskin mod for his Hunter uses a different folder than the one you use?

I can confirm that this mod is PARTIALLY working with the A Better Advent. I saw at least some of the custom units using weapons from this mod.
