Have you played XCOM Chimera Squad it's a cool game to play. They do have characters interacting with each on missions and off missions.

The reason why i was asking was because i have Starcraft characters in my mass effect character pool and it would have been cool to have them interacting with other characters.

Yes you are right it's not the answer i wanted but thanks for answering and thanks for letting me know the process and the method of how you made it happen. i found that very interesting having characters interact with each other during missions and in the avengers. It reminded me of Starcraft where the characters interact during missions and outside missions. It would be cool a mod for character interacting during in game missions and outside of the mission as well.

Happy to help as this one's easy, if a bit unfortunate since it's not the answer you'll want.

That's all edited in in post. So offscreen I just took a screenshot of the game during a convo window being up > blacked out the text box and face box in photoshop > trimmed the new PS comp to be ONLY the textbox & facebox (and borders, naturally) > used google to find a similar font to the game's text > wrote in what I wanted it to say > slapped on whoever needed to be in the facebox > (optionally) popped a stock FX of TV static over it if it didn't have already. Throw a radiofilter (there's 100 guides out there on the exact FX all the voicepacks use) and boom. Just fade it in for a moment as it comes in, fade it out when done. Long as it's not layered over any existent menu buttons, looks completely like it's meant to be there.

Usually it's me doing the voice overs unless it's a distinct character like Bradford, Shen, Tygan.

What code or script did you use to make characters interact during game missions similar to bradford when he talks to you and in the avengers similar to the radio dj speaking when you click on the bar.?

@Sigma / What is That Melody
Highlander comes first, always.
I'd put ABA and co. after them because then the AI tweaks should domino into everything else
Asset mods go before main mods (see resistance firearms for example)
Mostly though there isn't a load order, game's pretty good at figuring stuff out. Just make sure Highlander is at the bottom and no 'cart' mods are going before 'horse' mods.

is there a specific order to the mods or atleast what are the important ones

I have decided to lose my sanity and "attempt" to do a walkthrough similar to yours my friend, God pray for my soul.

why have you done this to yourself

Mate I have no idea.
I've done all kinds of things all kinds of ways and I have no idea what sticks anymore.
Careful with config clearing though because if you do that DO NOT OPEN YOUR CHARACTER POOL UNLESS YOU'VE ALREADY OPENED THE GAME A FEW TIMES AND CHECKED ALL THE MODS STILL WORK.
Otherwise the pool will rebuild everyone with vanilla parts ONLY and autosave destroying your old pool's customisations forever

oh okay should i clear my configs file and start up a new game?

You've likely gone over the mod limit somehow - as soon as I go beyond 1292 it won't let me save anymore either

hey did anything chnagebecause when it try to save my games now they dont even save anymore

Highlander goes at 0 or 1, whichever is the very first in the load order.
Usual FPS for me is around 50 modded fluctuating 40-60 when recording, 120 or so unmodded

Also what is your usual fps when playing? because i have a pretty beefy pc and i still tend to have bad frames or maybe is just all the mods?

thank you, sorry to keep bugging but on the mod loader do you put highlander at the very bottom of the loader or do you put highlander at the very top of the load order so it start as 1

@Dmarco
To quote the description "YOU ARE GOING TO WANT TO USE THE COMMUNITY MOD LOADER FOR THIS, JUST FOR MANAGEMENT'S SAKE" - by that I mean the community mod loader on the xcom2 mods reddit

did you use through steam or did you use an custom launcher for all these mods?

@kazuya0010
I do not know

Can you please tell how you were able to launch 1K mods successfully without the game crashing?

Well glad it ended well for you!

Oh should have mentioned it I am using alternate mod launcher. But i think i found source of my problem oddly i recategorized all of the mods, sorted them and suddenly it ran after a few minutes of puking its guts out.

Probably cos you're trying to run it through steam.
Try the community mod launcher and put the highlander at the bottom. That is the extent of my modding knowledge tho from a code basis. I haven't updated from 1.3 for fear of breaking a the holy jenga tower

I tried again to make all this to run but steam is like NO and shuts down itself and nothing happens. I think I have an issues somewhere else.

i have.. issues with this myself. i dont know the total scale of the mods, but i do know my comp can handle many (more then 30 gigs of ram should suffice) ive downloaded the mods from this, and added my own to the mix, while deleting some others that were issues, like supression visualization fix, or mods that were encompassed in totality by other better mods. i have some where in the number of 1588 i think, and what it does is it acts like its opening, but has a little window that simply says "not responding". any help please?

thanks guys, i uninstalled the 5 from P2 and the game still crashes, so I don't know whether or not I should just uninstall all my mods then reinstall them. Once Again thanks for the help.

@Cairn - I second what Niko said. If it doesn't work after that 5 from P2 then you know the culprits, go one at a time through that 5 and then once you know WHICH it is, you can start to drill down into WHY.
Best of luck pal.

@CairnWD what i recommend to do is uninstall one mod at a time and figure out which is crashing your game

Can someone help pls I had about 100 yesterday and the game worked fine but I Installed 5 from part two and it justs crashes, no title screen, it just loads up then instantly crashes. Once again pls help

@Truehippy.
At this point, I truly don't know. I'm terrified of updating anything - frantically saving my data in case of any crash or mess-up. I haven't updated Mod Launcher since 1.3 because I daren't throw out any tiny screw from the machine. It's a miracle it even runs anymore and someday I absolutely plan to stream the thing just booting the F up to prove it does lol

so i downloaded thew pack (hell i ran this with only 30 of the most subscribed WOTC mods) and my xcom wont even load. I get as far as the first pop up thing and then... nothing. the best i got was using a nexus laucher with like 15 mods and i couldnt even get out of the tutorial with out a redscreen crash.

how did you do it man? clearly you did but I cant even play the the game with long war 2 on

My poor little toaster is going to die. It's worth it.

Oh. Yeah I was using part 2. Let me just uninstall that.

@Silavet
I'd never reccommend using this and Part 2 all at once, this is mostly here to track what's up, and cos people wouldn't stop asking lol

Alright, I'll give it a shot.

(EDIT)
At least it functions at my end*

I exclusively play WOTC, so everything here functions inside Wotc, not everything says it does but some bleeds through regardless

Ah, aright. Maybe this might fix it. Do you only use WOTC mods, or do you use everything in the pack?

@Silavet never had any issue with "OneMillionColoursforWOTC" myself - I'm afraid I know nothing of fixing issues, I just play the games

I'm having a issue with OneMillionColoursforWOTC not registering for some reason. This is the second time I reinstalled all of the mods. Is it a issue with the mods or on me?

@OverEnglishMan Can we please be friends on steam and maybe even play some PC games together? Also I sent ya a friend request.

@OverEnglishMan I found Wibbles on NEXUS. He likes to crash my game every other turn. Other than that, he kills stuff.

No worries. It's good to find a youtuber who loves to mod XCOM even more than I do.

@Rainy
Yup, I legit have no clue what's causing that. So go forth in the knowledge that I have not knowing installed anything that does that. My deepest apologies but that's as far as I can help.

https://youtu.be/BVN7kt_Jojc?t=1085

This is an example of what I mean.

@Rainy as far as I know they don't?
Honestly, I don't ever recall doing anything to them. Maybe it was part of the cosmetic TLE / TLE unlock mods in part 2? Otherwise I'm stumped

What mod did you use to get Resistance Fighters with TLE mag weapons

@Lux Wibbles was fulled from the workshop a long time ago now. I backed up the mod at the time I had it, might I suggest checking Nexus? That's just about the one thing Nexus is good for in XCOM modding terms - reuploads of pulled mods (nobody seems to post anything exclusive or new there otherwise)

@OverEnglishMan Where is Wibbles? I want to have a killing machine in my game, just like your most recent video "All Hell Breaking Loose", but none of the mods here seem to have it...

@OverEnglishMan, thanks. I have to say your Modded Beyond Reason playthrough is hilarious. Very enjoyable.
