Lanthrudar why don't you make your own mods if you are so upset. I imagine you don't know how.
Rather than hating on the mod maker who kindly uploads their hard work, why don't you go and learn how to make mods for yourself, or are you too lazy?

I agree with Nezo completely. Try to ignore pricks like Lanthrudar

hey author sorry for the prick freaking out for a free mod lol while I do believe in voicing one's opinion there's better ways of doing it. hope you have fun creating more mods

Yep, you're right, mods are free, and if the author does some crazy stuff on their like add req's you don't want, we have the option to let them know what we think of the change and if we want to use it or not, which is what I did. If you don't like feedback and people voicing what they like or don't like on your mods, then don't publish them, easy peasy.

Nobody is FORCING you to do anything. This is nothing but a free mod and as such you can choose to download it or not. Alma is required only because of the enhanced trait it introduces. You don't have to download all stage 1 characters and I just can't add the same trait for every character I make. That was the most elegant solution I could come up with at the time.

So basically you force anyone to take Amla, or else dump all your Stage 1 characters? Well since I don't want Alma, the choice is easy...

You are correct, I updated the requirement. In fact all the Stage 1 Enhanced require Alma.

Apparently Sandra's Traits don't show in the char screen unless Alma is also enabled

That's not a new issue, unfortunately. What I can tell is that the editor doesn't show the outcome of your chosen skin palette, and it's simply a trial and error process to get the survivor look the way you want. For instance, I get a survivor with a rather green face, when I was going for a middle-eastern skin tone.

For some reason she's not rendering with skin pigmentation (even on a new game when she's the only mod active?) https://imgur.com/a/ZohKmtI

That is unusual. I have no problem with her traits showing on the character screen or in game. I reuploaded her just in case. Please let me know if the problem persist after you desable and re-enable the mod.

Traits are empty on the character screen

Should be fixed now, thank you!

same as with Mantis. her portrait is a bit too small.
