This is just a localization file. The mission names should, but the nicknames won't, unless you're using LWOTC, which, as far as I know, should be reusing the original class IDs.

Oh this is nice, Sorry to be a bother but does this work with WOTC?

It ought to, as long as it still uses the same soldier classes as LW2 did back in 2017. I don't think anything with regards to these localization files has changed since then. On the other hand, WOTC faction soldiers will still use their default nickname pools.

Does this work with LWOTC?

I guess,its urs mod wich gives laugh from Operation names like "Plundering Wh**e".Thanks for giving me tons of laughs

This is a great combiner mod. Thanks.

Do you mind if I port this at some point for Richards Classes Redux and/or Proficiency Class Pack? Just a simple re-release but with the soldier class arrays changed.

e.g. "ISky's Big Name Mod for Proficiency Class Pack"

can you use this in mid campaign

I love this mod. I can tell you've put in real effort with this, and I enjoy that.

I don't have WOTC or my dev environment at this time.
It's entirely additive, so the mission names are likely to work unless they've changed the generator significantly.
The nicknames are for the LW2 classes and will only work if LW2 is installed, but should be compatible in that case.

Is this compatable with WOTC?

Could this be made to have the base usernames added to the vanilla classses?

@The Dark Emperor:
The solder nicknames won't work in vanilla, but the mission names and the rest will.

Does this work for basegame or only for LW2?

Hey, consolidated the soldier nicknames so each nickname is only used by one class. More details (and a pastebin link) in the Nickname Discussion

@TKCPrime:
You mean really low framerate on the geoscape? That's indicative of a mod conflict. Have a read of this:
Troubleshooting: Mods not working properly / at all

Well it might be my i5 3570K but it is OC'd to 4.4 GHz, I've got 16G RAM and a 1070. You might be right though. That CPU is getting quite old.

I guess that would make sense if your PC is a bit on the slow side, as LW2 makes it access the name array quite a bit, and that thing is.. just a tad larger than it was designed to be, now.
Not much I can do, it's not technically my fault.

This mod slows the strategic layer significantly for me.

Reporting in: This mod does not apply the new nicknames to LW Perk Pack classes. Still getting the vanilla nicknames like 'Frosty'. Mission names are working correctly.

Thanks, I guess will give it a try and let you know what happens. AFAIK the classes types are unchanged, just the abilities switched around a little for LW2.

Oops. I had that explained in the original post, but I guess it never made it to the rewrite.

I'm unsure how the LWPP interacts with the classes; if they're still "LWS_Name" internally, it'll work fine. Otherwise, you won't get the nicknames part. The mission names will work fine either way.

Hi ISky. If I'm using Long War Perk Pack but NOT Long War 2, will this finger-lickin good combo mod still function? (I.e. Is it wholly dependant on LW2 or is there scope for use without it?)

@Havelock Vetinari:
The "Locations/Mission Name Suggestions" Discussion looks like a good place...

Hey man, where can I send you suggestions for mission names? (Also, could you point me to a tutorial or something about how you added mission names? I tried in the past but was unable to)

So, I should unfollow the other ones and use this one.

First mission, extracting a VIP.

Name? Sloppy Whore.

It's actually in there both ways. Oops.
Fixed for next time, thanks.

Siege is mispelled "Seige" in operation names.

This is one of my favorite kind of mods: made because angry.

@Bjoern If you are playing with maximum textures and/or shadows, try taking them down to high, fixed it for me.

Btw MOD CONFIG And Grimmys loot does do that the bug comes more often if you have those 2 mods installed :)

That bug is in the base game - easiest way to explain it is that you have too many mods.
Removing this one didn't specifically fix it, I don't think, it's just an intermittent issue.
I don't edit any classes, I don't believe I can cause script errors like that.

@bjoern its not this mod its LW2 that has that bug right now for somereason i dont know why tho (if you dont have LW2 its maybe cause this is for LW2 or something xD)

Caused my game to while loading the post-mission sequence (got stuck on some image from below the Avenger - it didn't actually freeze [butterflies kept flying around] but rather stopped loading). Some UI issue with loading m_kGameCore not being accessed or something, I think. Anyway, removing the mod solved the problem, so it's definitely some error with this, maybe some weird interaction with the other mods I have installed.

more screenshots yup i support that ! :)

can you upload some more screenshots of the mod in Action

Operation GAH it's on my shoe
Codename WHO wants to test my new lazar
Mission Kill the ugly one...which ones the ugly one
Countermeasure Who drank all the rum

Is it multilingual?

If ya want memes, you can always look up Ayy lmao, there's a mod.

Need to? Nah, they won't conflict. Mine has everything from them, though, so it's kindof redundant.

Do we need to unsubscribe the old one?

Oh, this is nice. Thanks for sharing.

No. Nicknames are assigned by class. LW2 disables the default classes and uses its own. The old ones I linked will, though. Pick either Nicknames Extended or Expanded Callsigns, not both.

so the nicknames portion of the mod doesnt work without longwar 2?

Please, please, please no memes.

pls no memes

@Sky I would love it if all my missions were named after memes
operation "absolutely barbaric"
operation "bad luck brian"
operation "confession bear"
operation "good guy steve"

Someone should make a mod for NRFBtoystores version of operation names, but good stuff nonetheless author

retired marine, op names can be interesting sometimes indeed. as long as its not laughable.
