Re: Long War 2 Wiki Project

Thank you for the replies. Amineri, eStat_Strength is gained via promotions on most XCOM classes, for example the Assault gains 2 points in total altogether to that stat. As we are on charecter classes, what is the reason for the line (StatType=eStat_Will,StatAmount=0)) after Corporal rank ? As in, ...

Re: Text alignment issue in Soldier View (Avenger)

I had a suspicion that this was more of an Easter Egg. :)

Just to be clear, if I go on a limb and edit the name of the perk in the respective .ini files, will that allow the game to properly align it?

Text alignment issue in Soldier View (Avenger)

1) Long War 2 version: current, 1.0 2) PC Windows 10, 64-bit 3) No additional mods 4) See the screeshot bellow, I think it apperead after promoting the soldier to the next rank and thus adding a new perk to the list 5) I can offer a savegame, just let me know if you need one. The perk Center Mass is...

Re: Long War 2 Wiki Project

Going through the files and trying to understand the different variables governing Aliens, Advent and XCOM soldiers, I do need some clarification about a few. Here is what I have found: eStat_HP - Health, by default 4 eStat_ArmorChance - the chance armor mitigates damage eStat_ArmorMitigation - abso...

Re: Why no tutorial?

Well, the tutorials are heavily scripted missions and probably won't place nice with all the changes made to classes, aliens and AI. The Long War team always assumed that whoever has installed the mod has already played the original game, so you should already have seen the cutscenes and experienced...

Re: Ability Icons

Say ArtixBot, can you get in touch me once you start extracting them, so we can see what is needed for the Wiki and not double-up?

Re: Difficulty Comparisons

Long War 2 feels a lot smoother due to several reasons: - It is past the beta phase. Long War 1 was for almost 2 years in beta and there were some rough spots, for example alien progression did not have any limits and people playing up to 3-4 years in-game (yes, there were such players) reported tha...

Re: Infinite Reinforcements?

The reasoning is simple - you have a lot less information what Advent is doing in Long War, thus no way knowing where are they going to land. Also improves the survivability of the reinforcements, since you will more likely than not spread out your soldiers to cover a bigger area and thus get less r...

Long War 2 Wiki Project

Good day to all! Since I love reading and writing, mostly text, I would like to get straight to populating the Long War 2 Wiki. But I do have a few questions: - Does anyone know how to extract images from the assets, specifically the icons for traits/skills? - A question for the Long War 2 team, wha...

Re: Long War 2 released for PC!

Hey Frozen Shepard, Having a look at the UFOpaedia, the Long War 2 page was just created today! Good news, since I am quite familiar with the layout and have worked already on the Long War 1 wiki. Now all I need to know is how to extract some assets from the mod, especially icons, so we can put them...

Re: Difficulty relative to vanilla

I would say start on Veteran and that should be around Legend in Vanilla, approximately. Beware that Long War is notorious for throwing big pods and huge numbers against you, so depending on your experience you might be looking at an even longer campaign as you will need to abandon some missions. A ...

Re: Transition to XCOM2

A mod can be made for Xcom 2 that transitions after the battle at the Temple ship into a parallel reality, bringing only your team at the end of the mission with you. It would be a lot of work for nothing though, you can recreate your soldiers in the Character library, even if you have not loaded a ...
