For people asking about voicepacks, these custom units have a unique template entry in order to function as they do. It is simply not possible for RealityMachina to add support for custom voicepacks without breaking the mod.

Instead, the voicepack author needs to add compatibility for: CharacterTemplate="RM_HybridSoldier" to their mod. You can either request your favourite voicepack authors to update their mod, or you can simply do it yourself.




1) Navigate to the config folder of the desired voicepack. You will need the mod ID, found in URL of the steampage.

Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\268500\1128505988\Config


2) Open up the XComContent.ini file with Notepad.


3) Copy the entry which refers to Skirmishers and paste beneath the existing entries. Replace the CharacterTemplate entry from "SkirmisherSoldier" to "RM_HybridSoldier"

+BodyPartTemplateConfig=(PartType="Voice", Language="glados", Gender=eGender_Female, TemplateName="Portal2GladosVoicePackWTRRK", ArchetypeName="Portal2GladosVoicePackWTR.Portal2GladosVoice", CharacterTemplate="RM_HybridSoldier", SpecializedType=true)


4) Save and exit. All done!



** PRE-WOTC Packs **
This method for pre-wotc voicepacks sometimes does not work. Based on my own experiences adding hero faction support for abandoned packs.

For pre-wotc voicepacks without Skirmisher entries, copy the single vanilla line and add the following onto the end:

, CharacterTemplate="RM_HybridSoldier", SpecializedType=true)
