Really appreciate you maintaining this mod. Thank you.

Turned off all mods. Uninstalled the nexus mod manager version of this mod. Downloaded the fresh version from the Steam Workshop.

Just tried a new game and completed Gatecrasher. Used the console to create an AWC then console leveled the barracks until the first Hidden Perk triggered. No sign that the mod triggered.

Loaded an old tactical game which I knew would result in a Hidden Perk being triggered. At mission end, the Hidden Perk triggered. No sign that the mod triggered.

Hey there, really been loving the mod so far, but since I've installed Alien Hunters, it doesn't seem like it's been working at all. Tried unsubscribing from the mod, resubscribing, and starting a new game, but it still doesn't work, even though it's showing up on the list of mods whenever I start the application. Think it might be something with Alien Hunters that screws it up, because this is happening to a bunch of other mods as well.

Problem: I can't enable or just can't find the Respec button.
I've checked %steamapps\workshop\content\(numbers)\(numbers)\Config\XComChooseableAWC.ini, but
"ENABLE_RESPEC_AWC_PERK_BUTTON" set to "true".
I don't know if this issue caused by latest update of the mod or smth else, or maybe I'm just blind and can't find it, but I'd really appreciate help.
The only other mod I use is SWR Not Created Equally. Could it be a conflict between theese two mods?
P.S. I do realise, that question about Respec button had been answered in comment section of the mod already, but I can't find that damn thing!

Since the DLC Patch from May 12th, my Respec Button is gone as well. Used to be in the Soldier Ability section, now it's just gone and I get random AWC Perks instead of being able to choose. I reinstalled the mod, but no avail.

Ok, the mod seems to be running, sorta.

I have a save game with multiple soldiers ready for promotion. Two of them get an AWC perk choice, and the other two (sniper, specialist) have one automatically awarded.

There is no respec button

I have edited the XComChooseableAWC.ini file to ENABLE_RESPEC_AWC_PERK_BUTTON = true; default = true

I really dont want volatile mix for my sharpshooter.

I have turned the mod on and off, multiple times. I've also unsubscribed adn resubscribed, as well as cleared out my config folder while testing integrity of files. I even started a new game.

Still not working properly.

before alien hunters: worked great every time
after alien hunters: mod is enabled, but there is no sign in game that it is working

I wish they would quit putting out updates that crash so many mods out there if they are trying to be "mod friendly"

So there is no indication that this mod is working for me, if anything it seems to be functioning in the complete opposite way that it's supposed to: in that it is giving me AWC perks for my troops randomly and not even notifying me, I only noticed once I saw that my specialist had serial -_-

Also, just like most of the other people, no respec button is appearing for me, changed it in the config etc

that's what is happening with mine too, noticed one of my supports suddenly had hail of bullets with no warning

what seems to work for me as a temporay fix for it not loading: copy the steam workshop files and put anothe copy in the XCOM2 / XComGame/Mods/ file. That seems to make it load. Still not entirely sure why it isn't loading properly normally though, still looking into it.
Nicodemus 17 May, 2016 @ 6:00am 
tyblaidd can you be a little more specific on that in terms of files and location?
Tenebris 17 May, 2016 @ 2:36pm 
Um if I may inquire further, it WAS working before you updated it
I copy-pasted the following:

"Try deleting the XcomEngine.ini from ..\Users\<username>\Documents\My Games\XCOM2\XComGame\Config."

^THAT worked for me, fixed my other mods too, but this one broke after you updated it
I'm going to try that again, as well as your suggestion of making a copy of the mod in my folder

Still no sign of Respec button. Had tried different resolutions and window/fullscreen mods, also experimented with size and positioning of the button. And never found it.
Addition: soldiers also still taking random perks. Obviously, mod isn't working, at least for me. Should I wait for another update/fix, or it's just my problem?

I solved the issue (at least for me) do what my previous post says and delete that ini file, also, put a copy of the workshop files in the same folder like the author says (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\268500. And finally make sure the config file for the mod (same as last folder) the button option is set to True I did all three and it's working fine now

Demetrion... this worked for me.

Make sure you set the button to TRUE. The first time I did it, I just changed the default=true and wasnt paying attention...that half of the line is commented out and doesn't mean anything. Best to put true in both parts of the line.

;///////////////RESPEC BUTTON/////////////////////////////

;adds a respec AWC PERK Button the the soldier perk screen
;which allows the rechoosing of AWC perks at well
ENABLE_RESPEC_AWC_PERK_BUTTON = true; default = true

;positional data of the respec button;
RESPEC_POS_X = 870;default = 50
RESPEC_POS_Y = 130;default = 40
RESPEC_SIZE_H = 35;default = 70
RESPEC_SIZE_W = 20;default = 35

The new positional data makes the button smaller, and locates it up and to the right of your Squaddie Ability in the Soldier Ability Screen.

So if you have enabled it in the .ini, you should now see the button at fullscreen resolutions where it might have been invisible or off screen previously.

@tyblaidd ok, I noticed my issue is a little more severe than the mod just not working: steam won't download it. I was using your nexus version, then when I noticed it not working correctly I uninstalled it and came to get this one, figuring this was more likely to be updated. But when I subscribe to it Steam doesn't download it, mod is not in workshop content, I get nothing.

edit: ok, finally got it to download, had to unsub/resub multiple mods to get it to register, attempting fixes listed above now

edit: working, copied workshop files like you said
