Not sure whats wrong, I am able to respec but in missions they swap back to original ability.
It was Stealth, and I found out you posted a mod for LWOTC which is what I play so I made some modifications in the config and it worked, all good :D

Is the ability really called Stealth and not Phantom?
Hey! Idk if you can help me here in the comments, but I use the extension and I tried to add a perk to the skirmishers (the stealth which grants you concealment as long as enemies don't detect you), so I duplicated the line that added the supression perk to skirmishers and replaced "Supression" by "Stealth" which is what you use for the Templars, and it doesnt work. I tried many different perks and it doesnt appear when I use the command "RespecSelectedSoldier" or when I search through the Respec button. Is there a way you can help me? Thx in advance :)

good it worked out for you :)

oh wow...... i found a simple solution for what i was really looking for which wasn't adding in new abilities necessarily but having access to all abilities possible from my xcom pool. all i did was add in tiers 5-7 for all the classes in the lwotc extension for this mod and it did what i wanted. whew that was easier that i thought it would be.
ThePwnageKitty 17 Aug @ 8:01pm 
err.... actually there is apparently a random ability deck for each class but i think I will have to fumble around to get what I want to happen with that...
ThePwnageKitty 17 Aug @ 7:47pm 
if im reading the xcomclassdata file correctly then it either adds or replaces the random deck abilties but it's really odd since each soldier class has access to a different pool of xcom abilities at least as far as i can tell from looking at my soldiers..... I will attempt to add all possible abilities to the tedjam version since it seems to be overriding and see if they show up unless I should hope that the abilities will show up if I add them to the the lwotc mod file.... wish me luck i guess
Dare  [author] 17 Aug @ 6:06am 
u might wanna check if any clasmods adds additional decks. If so they need to be added to the config. Check the extension mod for LWTOC on how to do that.
ThePwnageKitty 17 Aug @ 2:52am 
they are unfortunately not available with the mods I am currently using. I am on LWOTC and tedjam. I assume that tedjam screws with it but I don't know how it messes it up. I do notice that the available abilities are widely different between the different classes for some reason. like on one class ill see 18 abilities or so and on another ill see nearly 30 (estimate because I didn't count them out).
Dare  [author] 17 Aug @ 1:11am 
all allbilites from a rnd deck should be pickable by default
ThePwnageKitty 17 Aug @ 12:57am 
any idea how to make all the abilities in the random deck available? the setting that allows a lot more abilities doesn't address what i'm looking at. I'm guessing i have to add each individual ability to something but that could be completely wrong....

update: i found a solution. very simple luckily. idk if community promotion screen mod is a dependency i missed. regardless, downloading that mod solved the issue completely!

ig since in vanilla WOTC, accessing the new promotion screen requires pressing the "train" button in your AwC and scrolling down to the soldier you wanted to view — unfortunately you were not allowed to select sparks from that list, so sparks were locked out from viewing that menu.

in other words, this mod successfully unlocks AwC abilities for sparks, gives AP and a respec button as intended. works perfectly. however, you can't actually access that screen and see any of it, unless you have another mod to force it open.
epic meow 15 Aug @ 1:38pm 
ahh, that seems so obvious now :reonion: but i certainly would've missed that otherwise. thank you for explaining it!
Dare  [author] 15 Aug @ 11:25am 
if you recruited the spark before installing this mod it won't get it retroactive. Try recruiting a new spark. If that also doesn#t work delete your config folder and restart teh game twice then recruit a new spark.
epic meow 15 Aug @ 9:03am 
:3 clumsy, i can't train my spark and it doesn't have AP, in the XComClassData.ini, "bAllowAWCAbilities=1" should mean it's enabled ;(

it turns out i accidentally had spark awc ability mod enabled, but still nothing after having turned that off. i kinda doubt that both mods disabled each other... but idk

If using the AML (and you should be!) just right-click the mod and select >go to folder
then you will find them in the \config folder
venolf 1 Aug @ 7:36am 
Hi~ Could anyone tell me where the mod config files are??
Rocharox 19 Jul @ 9:52am 
This mod is amazing good!
DPK[???_????] 21 May @ 8:34am 
AWESOME MOD! for those bros playing LWOTC, please subscribe mods in the description!
NitroXpreSs 21 May @ 7:06am 
Fix confirmed!
Dare  [author] 20 May @ 11:41pm 
sparks should be fixed
Dare  [author] 20 May @ 10:55pm 
@NitroXpreSs
U are correct there is still a problem with the owned abilties for sparks. After deleting the decks from the config I got the abilties in the middle, but the left side is still buggy. I have to work now I check it out later.
Dare  [author] 20 May @ 10:43pm 
Lwotc user now need to subscribe to Void smasher extension mod for full functionality.
Void Smasher 20 May @ 8:31pm 
Made an extension mod specifically configured to work with LWOTC. Mod contains xLWOTC=true setting by default and all Rank and Tier decks for all classes.

NitroXpreSs 20 May @ 1:52pm 
Deleted the LWotc Deck lines and nothing changed. =[
Dare  [author] 20 May @ 1:48pm 
I will move the LWotc stuff to a different mod like the vanilla extension mod. then it should be better for both parties to handle stuff.
NitroXpreSs 20 May @ 1:41pm 
Oh ok ok I think I got it nvm, lemme see if it works
NitroXpreSs 20 May @ 1:38pm 
I'll be happy to check. Can you please tell me which line to delete specifically? I'm not really good at this..
Dare  [author] 20 May @ 1:21pm 
I found the problem I think. LWotc and Vanilla share the same classname for sparks. If you go into the config and comment out / delete the decks for sparks it should go back to normal.
Dare  [author] 20 May @ 1:15pm 
ok the function that checks sparks got messed during the updates, I take a look at it tomorrow.
Dare  [author] 20 May @ 1:11pm 
if it's in vanilla I check one of my older saves.
NitroXpreSs 20 May @ 11:35am 
Hi Dare. I just wanted to report a bug I think may be a result of some recent updates. I have been using your mod for years now with no problems, this only popped up very recently. I play vanilla and the issue is that Sparks have an entire extra row of cross-class skills ATM. I'll try to explain to the best of my abilities but please don't hesitate to ask for a screenshot if my explanation is too hazy.

Essentially what happens now is that apart from the three horizontal rows of skills i.e. SPARK class specific FUTURE COMBAT, WAR MACHINE and cross-class XCOM - the Training center abilities you can buy/unlock show up BELOW the XCOM row essentially giving sparks 10 slots but not allowing you to switch/buy different skills anywhere but the extra row now. I tried to retrain my spark to see if it would change anything - still the same. The rest of the classes work as intended.
Void Smasher 20 May @ 10:17am 
@QQ小冰 That happens if you run the mod with LWOTC having xLWOTC = false in the mod config XComImTheCommanderHere.ini which is set to false by default, and resets to false every time the mod get updated. I specifically tested LWOTS Sparks and they are fine as other classes.
Dare  [author] 20 May @ 10:00am 
@QQ I take a look at it.
ugotspangled1705 20 May @ 8:55am 
Thank you for such a quick resolution! Updated, had to set lwotc = true in the ini file. Tested and it works now!
QQ小冰 20 May @ 8:30am 
I have a bug feedback here, Spark cannot select skills anymore, it's all question marks, including skills that have already been learned
Void Smasher 20 May @ 6:14am 
LWOTC "Rank" and "Tier" decks.

If you check LWOTC config XcomClassData.ini you could find definitions of those decks, such as DeckName="Rank1_XComAbilities" which contains pool of abilities that is used to generate a Rank 1 personal ability. Same with Rank 2 and so on to Rank 7. However, above "Rank" decks you could find DeckName="Tier1_XComAbilities" with "Tiers" from 1 to 4. This is the old deck system that is not used for character generation by LWOTC since late last year. "I am the Commander here" mod, however, provide you an ability to use abilities from unused decks as they mentioned in the XComImTheCommanderHere.ini config file.

If you need to customize abilities available for your LWOTC classes and want to have even more abilities to choose from you need to customize your LWOTC XcomClassData.ini. Just add what you like to any DeckName="Rank1_XComAbilities" of any class and these abilities will appear in the respec screen of the "I am the Commander here" mod.
Void Smasher 20 May @ 6:00am 
Tested tier decks for templar, skirmisher and reaper with the latest update. Now they works.
Dare  [author] 20 May @ 5:48am 
uploaded a fix for herosoldiers - steam says it's still being processed though. remember to recheck xLWotc=true in the config.
Dare  [author] 20 May @ 5:14am 
can u of u 2 provide a screenshot?
ugotspangled1705 19 May @ 7:45pm 
Tested setting xLWOTC = true in the XcomImTheCommanderHere.ini, and as of the most recent update for his mod it no longer shows any abilities available for faction heroes, and some abilities are missing for standard heroes. Anybody find a way to resolve this?
kopeke100 18 May @ 10:31pm 
Goodmorning, I am having some trouble with the mod, I have 6 perk slots that I can modify, but the showed "equipped perks" are all jumbled perks that aren't equipped and selecting a new perk out of the list, does not make that perk equipped. I have a screenshot that I can show to help make it a bit more clearer
Void Smasher 18 May @ 6:26am 
@Dare Thanks a lot for updating the mod!
Void Smasher 18 May @ 6:22am 
@Shaider Because mod updated you need to edit config again to set xLWOTC = true.

In the latest mod version there is a combination of old and new LWOTC decks so there is a lot of perks now. This is unfair however. :) So if you wanted to play in the way LWOTC devs are designed their classes, better comment Tier lines in the XComImTheCommanderHere.ini config of the mod.
Dare  [author] 18 May @ 5:16am 
could u accept my friend request, a quick chat might resolve this faster
Snaider 18 May @ 5:14am 
EDIT: But a lot of perks still missing, like "Run and Gun" with Specialist
Snaider 18 May @ 5:08am 
Yes, I have "false" again. Thank you for the fast response
Dare  [author] 18 May @ 4:55am 
can u check if during the update maybe u have to set xLWotc=true again?
Dare  [author] 18 May @ 4:51am 
trying to find out what went wrong, on it.
