this mod is for example if you run star wars, halo or mass effect costmatic weapons mods ?

i dont ahve the long war mod, yet the comminity still crashes

Actually, yeah. XCOM can be modded to hell and back and achivements can still be unlocked, as surprising as that is. Except challenge mode, which requires vanilla game to run.

Sorry, may be a silly question, but do achievements still work with Highlander running?

@M0ntS4intM1chel
There are several Highlanders on the workshop. >This< Highlander is for vanilla XCOM 2.

The X2WOTCCommunityHighlander is for WOTC. There is also a BETA version with new experimental features.

The Alien Hunters Highlander plugin is meant to be used together with the main Highlander, but only if you have the Alien Hunters DLC. It also has a BETA version, meant to be used together with the BETA version of the Highlander.

The other is needed when you have the DLC.

Why are there multiple Highlander mods when there should be just one of them... Is it recommended to switch to another version? What would another version do that the other doesn't do? Are there risks of stability issues or mod/save incompatibilty...?

There was recently a new release of an Alien Hunter highlander.

There's a pop-up showing in my title screen, telling me i should install a new version of Communityhighlander. A version that would incorporate a correct handling of Alien Hunters and Bugfixes. I don't know, to me it seems i am subscribed to the only Communityhghlander there is or am i mistaken?

Yeah i just main big fixes. I believe there's already been one or two mods redundant that we're integrated into this.

I think the guy below meant that there are some mods that are just fixes to existing problems / bugs, and wonders if there are some of them that are made redundant by the fixes in the Highlander.

mods depend on this, it'd be silly to incorprate this mod's features into the mods themselves...they'd all end up being incompatible

Has anyone done an extensive list of available mods that are no longer required because this mod implements their fixes??

Guys! Great work!

@IceColdHeart You have published exactly 0 mods.

That is not the point of the Highlander @THRmen, if you are using mods that don’t need it there is no purpose in using it

This Mod causes more Problems as it solves, it change weapon patterns path so it is only from Soldier individualze screen availible and not by Weapon customize.
Some other Mods not worked properly so i pulled of all Mod required this.

Hi, I've been trying to play the game with mods that were originally meant for the Base game (Only really just Halo voice packs). I was under the impression that the Community Highlander was supposed to help that issue, should I be looking somewhere else?

can this be added midway through a game im playing? dont want to lose progress

Are those reported problems with LW2 still occuring?

this mod crashes my game on start. is it wotc compatible?

had no issuies last week now this is crashing no idea why

I experience an issue when using this mod with Long War 2. The problem happens I start a new LW2 campaign with this mod enabled. If I succeed in the intro mission (Gatecrasher), upon returning to the Avenger none of the intro cutscenes play and the objectives don't update properly. For example when I liberated a region the game still showed the objective to do so as incomplete. The doom counter did not appear. Same with the Advent Officer objective: it did not update.

When evacing from the intro mission without winning it though, the cut scenes play as normal and the objectives update properly. I tried both loading this mod before and after LW2 with the Alternative Mod Launcher but the problem appeared either way. I did follow the instructions on renaming the CookedPCConsole folder in all cases.

It doesn't seem as though this mod is compatible with LW2 yet using the method in the mod description to get them to work together.

This is the vanilla version of the Highlander mod, so we'll leave it up.

This doesn't seem to be compatible with LW2 anymore. I did the CookedPCConsole folder rename as usual. I am running into issues with the game crashing with "Pure Virtual Functions" when attempting to select new leader perks or new AWC perks. I went through my load order, and pretty much nothing could edit the AWC except this and LW2. I removed this mod and Idle Suppression (which is a tactical layer mod) and the crashes (in the strategic layer) went away.

it wont show up for the long war 2 walkthrough

i tried having the community highlander appear in the alternative mod launcher and it wont show up

Hmmm... Well... This mod made all units disappear and fail the gatecrasher mission for no apparent reason >_>

It is enable with Spark and Alien Hunter DLC?

Got it fixed ! The mod for soldiers size has a way to work without XC2CH, and it works just fine. Too bad i can't get XC2CH to work. Hope this helps somedody else.

Well i just picked some random mods but none of them is a highlander. It crashes whenever i try to load a save, but works perfectly fine when i disable XC2CHighlander from the mod list. Thank you for the help anyway.

@Nardrasil: LW2, unless you stick to the required steps to make them compatible with one another. Dunno if there are more highlanders.

Hi, i'm trying to use this mod to use Custom size soldier, but whenever i activate this mod the game crashes with the "Pure virtual function being called while application was running" error. I did my research for what could be the issue but i'm just stuck at this point. Which type of mod would conflict with this one ? Any ideas ?

The specific guns that are not firing properly are not incompatible but rather not set up correctly it is that mod's problem

No....Advent Flashlights is my mod, it has nothing to do with this discussion, that mod contains Many many bug fixes and only touches what is mentioned in the descriptions and under no circumstance would it ever break another mod's weapons

Oh and also.... I doubt it but you dont think the shadow ops mod for long war would cause issues with idle supression do you?

I definitely have advent flashlights so im gonna see if that was causing an issue

And also vortex. Thanks allot for taking the time to speak with me on this :-)

ahhhh I see. So advent flashlights is incompatible then?

No, starting new games rarely fix anything, and I was talking to erYsch, and the reason why they may not be firing is the fact the guns could be set up wrong, I know the Advent Priest Rifle is a broken mess and I had to rebuild it from scratch to actually work correctly for Advent Flashlights

Hey vortex. Sorry for taking a while to get back at you. I should mention that I did do ini edits to make it work with another gun mod. specifically resistance weapons. Now I am certain I did it correctly as I have much experience in editing inis both including and not including xcom 1. You say its a vanilla bug. Are you insinuating that I should try starting a new game?

That is not the case, the high lander fixes that, the issue described is a vanilla bug

edit: it also creates the spawn problem when using more soldiers than 8 in general (via .ini editing or using other mods)
but there are more than 4 in this case in game ;)

I found out that "X2CommunityHighlander" creates a problem with "Long War Toolbox" with 10 men default squad set up. Ingame they don't spawn properly. When having 10 soldiers in loadout, only 4 will appear in game and they spawn next to the objective. After ending the mission, the other soldiers reappear without having been in action.

For some reason this doesnt seem to be working with long war 2. I followed the instructions on the community highlander page. in fact when performing the suppression action they perform the supression movements but thers no firing. has anyone else had this problem?

yes, to run certain mods

Is there any particular reason one would want to use this with LW2 replacing it's highlander?

When only Customize Soldier Size included the game does not crash.
Only X2CommunityHighlander and Customize Soldier Size included the game crash.

P.S.
Before the last update of this problem was not.

Are you certain the Customize Soldier Size mod is not to blame? The author of that mod did contribute to our Highlander code, he'd probably be the best to provide feedback on this issue as he can test and try to surface the crash on his mod.

Please check this mod.
When I'm on the "Avenger" and change the size of the soldier and get out of the soldier's editor, the game crashes.
