Missing 'locfriendlyname'

Post by dasmo78 »

All of my new classes are showing a "missing 'locfriendlyname'" error whenever I try to promote them with any of the new skills and some of my units won't even level up. Anybody else seeing this or have a fix for it? I'm using a Mac non-Steam version of the game and followed Feral's advice of dragging the mod folders into the Mods folder within the preferences folder.

It sounds like it can't find the localization files for some reason. If you are using English version, it should be locating the *.INT files to pull in localization text.

Hi, I'm also getting the same problem.

I also get "Unable to find or load package 'LW_Perk_PCS_DamageControl' to cache perk content archetypes" among other errors, if that helps.

It's a manual installation of the LW Perk Pack into a mods folder of the normal pathing of C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\XCOM 2\XComGame\Mods

Thanks if anyone knows how to make the Perk Pack work!

You might try forcing your config files to re-merge. I'm not sure how/why this can still be a problem, but sometimes it still crops up.

The simplest one-time fix is to delete all of the "merged" config files in the My Games / XCOM 2 / Config folder.

An alternative way (which I and the testers sometimes use) is to run with the commandline arguments -regenerateinis .

Hello,

I actually have the same Missing "locfriendlyname" bug.

Manual installation, I tried with just the 4 long war mods installed it doesn't change a thing. I saw the answer about the localization files but I'm not sure what to do exactly to solve that. Am I supposed to copy the *in file from the mod's localization folder somewhere ?

I also have another issue for the toolbox one, I can't find the options, the text appears when I start a new game saying that it will be in the main menu, but I can't seem to find it.

I don't have anything under "interface"

Thank you, sorry about the rambling,

I'm looking forward to playing with your mods again !

@toolbox: Did you look for the options while ingame? You have to load a save/start a new game, the options won't show from the main menue.

Yes I have looked for it within the game. I actually tried looking from the main menu, within the game, during a mission and on the map.
