if i try to level up i soldier i have to press the button twice before it triggers and afterwards i get an empty skilltree without any interaction but the back-button. Going back leaves the solder without changes and still available promotion.

@Superbeast
Okay so a few things:
1. Thanks for the log file I wouldn't know anythng i you hadn't posted that.
2. That's just the begining of your log file. It ends with the game starting and going inot the main menu. I need either the entire log file or if not at least the last 3000 lines rather than the first 3000 lines. As it stands there is the only information in there about Commander's Choice is that you have it installed, there is 0 info beyond that.
3. There is something wrong with your game. Every time the game starts it goes through every mod you have installed, activated and deactivated (which according to your log file is something like 800?!). Your game is going through every mod twice, I have no idea why it is but it shouldn't be doing that. Verify your cache, backup and delete you config folder in documents/my games. See if that makes a difference. If not, make sure that the issue with Commander's Choice happened durring the last time you opened the game and then upload your log file somewhere (dropbox, google drive, etc) and post the link here (the full file is probably too large for pastebin).

im using the custom launcher - and it had entries for the drive letters e:/ and E:/ so it checked the mod folder twice for each mod. the number of installed mods is indeed 820ish.

Doing a revalidation right now and if the problem persists, ill be back with a better log.
Wintermute 13 Sep, 2017 @ 12:49pm 
so validation only reset 2 log files. i went through the process to disable mod by mod until i found the culprit. I attached two logs that end closely after the promote action occurs.

Gdrive link with log where the script fails[drive.google.com]

Gdrive link with log where the other mod is removed[drive.google.com]

the issue seems to be triggered if Automatically Color Units - WotC + Base is active at the same time as Commanders choice.

Thanks, that's helpful. I can replicate the issue but I'm not sure I can fix it. I think I can see what is going on but I'll need to do more testing to really know.

The problem seems to be with Automatically Color Units - WotC + Base. I'm not sure there's anything I can do on my end to fix it but I'll investigate further and report the issue to BlueRaja to see what can be done.

Edit: I can see the problem but can't find a way to fix it. It may be a basic incompatility. I left a comment on the Automatically Color Units - WotC + Base page asking for any recommendations BuleRaja has or if there's anything that can be done on his end.

Talked to BlueRaja, did some more digging and found the problem. Posted updated version that should solve the issue (it solved it in my testing).

Great service, thanks for helping out!

Not sure what you mean about the promotion UI still showing. If you mean the promotion button, that's known/intended (it's a consession for Vanilla/WotC cross-compatibility). If you mean the vanilla promotion screen showing for heroes that's part of the reason it's unsupported.

Heroes isn't simply a matter of turning it on. It would take dedicated code to get that to work correctly. You could try using [WOTC] New Promotion Screen by Default, it might help but I would expect there to still be some issues (probably with promotion, since heroes "buy" skills rather than "earn" them).

Game consistantly crashes at start-up with the mod activated. Have tried a variety of combinations, including "all off except this", and it's fairly clear it will not start with this active.

Edit: After quite a bit of fiddling around, it turns out that having the "Long War" mods released with the game installed, even if they are not active, makes this mod crash the game at start-up.

Hi. Since this mod it seems every tactical game load crashes to desktop, except the first one from menu screen. Also, might be relevant to know a glitch on quick save and quick load: the hotkeys somehow get unbinded, so I gotta reassign'em to fix... like all the time. As for potential mod interaction leading to CTD my first suspect would be Free Reload Anytime; next map packages.

Another thing I noted: rookies promotions do not seem to carry the same stats upgrades as vanila (note I am running NCE and hidden potential....). I suspect commanders' choice might be using its own class stats upgrades? Otherwise how so? Wish it did not interfere on stats... but should there be no way around it, don't bother. Thanks!

Also, game's CTD at the closeout of a mission for the first time, right after mission debriefing. I did have one of the soldires promoted with this mod in that mission team, also, for the first time in this campaign. Reloaded the game and tried again, same result. Rebuilt config, same thing. Romoved the mod and rebuilt config, same thing (tactical layer). With that, went back to strategy layer and ran the same mission again, all equal but that one soldier swapped, still CTD. However, this time the game would reload normaly. Also tried removing missing mods (mod), with same CTD at mission debriefing. Tried same last drill the next day, with a minor gamecore.ini correction, and got passed the mission end, finally - had started the campaign with more than 12 soldiers in the armory, rebuilding config files rectified that, so I reverted. So at this point am not sure the CTD issue was indeed with this mod or not. In any case did not have this kinda CTD before, and that last atempt might have succeded for some other reason, the correction being just a coincidence? Pardon the retoric, just trying to help pinpointing the cause.

When I try to use RealityMachina's Biotic class Redux, it does not show up on the Commanders Choice screen.

This is frustrating a bit. I started a new campaign and everytime I try to promote my soilders the game crashes. I happens on the cut scene after the promotion, the one where it explains what the class does. I am running a lot of mods. So I have no idea how to trouble shoot this.
Update: I tried disabling all my other mods but this one. It still crashed. Is there something I need to do to get this mod to work? Or is there another mod like this that works with WOTC?
CoheedBlue 10 May, 2018 @ 2:05pm 
update two, I started a new game with just this mod and it still crashed in the same way.

Maybe this is the appropriate place to put this. The Promote button is grayed out, but there is no commander's choice button. So I basically just can't upgrade my troops while this mod is installed. Is this a common problem?
