I thiiiink this might be able to be fixed with a single-line addition in the RemoveAllEffectsByDamageType() function:

RemoveEffectTypes.DamageTypesToRemove.AddItem('Bleeding');

I also noticed that these following lines were missing from RemoveAdditionalEffectsForRevivalProtocolAndRestorativeMist():

RemoveEffects.EffectNamesToRemove.AddItem(class'X2AbilityTemplateManager'.default.DazedName);
RemoveEffects.EffectNamesToRemove.AddItem(class'X2AbilityTemplateManager'.default.ObsessedName);
RemoveEffects.EffectNamesToRemove.AddItem(class'X2AbilityTemplateManager'.default.BerserkName);
RemoveEffects.EffectNamesToRemove.AddItem(class'X2AbilityTemplateManager'.default.ShatteredName);

Idk if you still play XCOM 2 at all, but I think there's a bug with this mod where the Guardian's GREMLIN heal doesn't remove the Chosen Hunter's bleed status effect!

Somehow i read @Duck's comment before i saw the paragraph before acknowledgements. Maybe you should put it more towards the top @James to avoid a wave of down votes (although slightly negative, thank you @Duck for enlightening us all)

@Frizzeldian12 Those are the same people who break their game with mods and blame the mods

@james people dont read descriptions lmfao and act like we are paid to do this shit.

@Duck - It's right there in the paragraph before acknowledgements:

"XCOM’s original classes are disabled with this mod but can quickly and easily be re-added by visiting XcomClassData in the mod’s config folder and following the instructions at the top of the file borrowed from Richard (thank you)!"

Since the mod author was humanly incapable of putting this in the description and has completely avoided answering the multiple different people who've asked this question, I'll do it myself: this mod REPLACES the original 4, vanilla XCOM 2 classes. I don't know why he refused to put that in the description or answer any of the people asking, but now you know. Shit's cancer.

Btw the TFDemoGrenades has a UI problem identifying itself. I had to dig up the classdata.ini to locate its real name to disable its perk status in another mod.

Having played a few campaigns and only ever ended up using rifle pathfinder, my summation: Havoc: Decent but its strength lies in melee, which is generally an overly reckless playstyle. Guardian: Similar enough to a Specialist that you're annoyed when they can't do *all* of a specialist's tricks. Sapper: NEARLY good but the low mobility untill you can cancel it with buffs means they're not used, and when they are, they aren't able to maneuver as the shotgun demands. Pathfinder: Actually quite good, especially with a rifle. They can function as your midrange marksman, since they're generally more accurate than other classes and more flexible than a Sharpshooter. *Flexible* marksman is a role missing from the vanilla classes, hence Pathfinder and that Sniper class someone else made being actually quite useful without being overpowered.

can you do individual versions so i can pick and choose

Does this mod replace the original classes? I disabled it but it still shows up in game too.

Yeah.. I've found them already at this point. Very sorry again. :/

Tacfor: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1511123422
Biotic: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1322822827

Really? I must be blind as a bat. I couldn't find it, admittedly, I've been looking for multiple ones. My apologies, then.

@Militus It's been out for almost two weeks already. Someone else made a plugin for the Biotic months ago...

@bstar How's that coming along? And have you by any chance got any permission for the Biotic mod too? :D

Hey Ulfur haven't really built that in due to the Pathfinder having the option of the assault rifle. I've just released a weapons pack that adds a Marksman Rifle which would effectively fulfill what you're asking about.

So far love the mod but I'm wondering if there is a way to add a snapshot style ability to the pathfinder so thy can fire after moving? Just curious otherwise its a fun class to play (waiting on a havoc to finish training so I can test that class out too)

Awesome, thank you!

Hey that would be no problem at all.

Hey @James, I'm currently making some RPGO class plugins. Would you mind if I used perks from your mod? I read that you were planning to make a plugin yourself, but if you don't have time right now, I could do it :)

Would love to man but my pc is currently in storage. I`ll give you a donation though.

Hey so I've been busy doing some updates to these classes based on feedback. Could probably do with someone up for testing the new abilities and balance of the classes if anyone is up for it?

A bit more of an emphasis on the Jackal being different from the default specalist would be nice. Perhaps additional gremlin defensive support abilities to assist not only the jackal and their overwatch but also squad mates.

James, specifically for Pathfinder for pistol training something along the lines of return fire.

Pathfinder is defintely my fav I use it with Claus Pathfinder mod, the tracking skill works great with his pathfinder lore I also really like the havoc and sapper and they seem to work fine for me. I just wanted to expand it into some classes via the training school

James, how about incorporating more of the Jackal perks specifically, Assassin, ambush expert, staying power and Lethal Force. Give the Pathfinder Marksman the ability to defend himself say pistol training. Havoc seems like it should have some type of CQC skill just on name alone.
Sentry, Hold Position and Corpsman are very good perks for the aptly named Guardian.

Planning to update this soon removing some of the lacklustre perk choices and polishing up some of the rough edges whilst investigating the reported bugs. I will also look into making an RPG Overhaul version which shouldn't be too difficult.

If anyone has any feedback at all about the classes or perks it would be really useful. I'd be really interested to hear how people use the classes and if they work as I imagined.

Anyone know how I can make the Havoc abilty, "brute force" apply melee damage buff to my axewielder? Currrently appears to buff sword attacks.

is there a RPG overhaul compatability mod available?

How can I change the GTS upgrade cost? I play on legendary and the upgrade costs 75, all vanilla upgrades cost 200 (I have vanilla classes activated as well).

@[NUBs] Jagonchen Can someone with the changed classes enabling LW2 weapons post the XCOMClassData.ini? Either link here, in the Custom Perks discussion, or even as an addon mod (which has its own load order issues). If there's demand and James doesn't come back to this any time soon, I can put it on the workshop--but I haven't played with this yet to judge where and how to balance new items.

hey, love the class pack, great ideas; just one bug I've encountered, it seems that first aid protocol doesn't stabilize bleeding out allies to the unconscous state, they kind of revive in a weird pseudo-death where you can issue orders but they don't do anything and enemies can target them

hope you're still updating/modding! this pack is the best one out there for WOTC

Does anyone know if this still has issues working alongside the Trainable Sparks or Metal Over Flesh mod(s)?

@James, good classes here, Pathfinder with the guardian skill is good. Wish the sapper could shoot above 75-77. Guardian and Havoc are also good and balanced. I see you used XmodBase to create your own perks great job, thanks.

hi can u make u class compatible with this mod ?[WOTC] LW2 Secondary Weapons

Sapper - Sawed off (bye g launcher)
Havoc - Combat Knife
Pathfinder - Holo-targeter
Guardian - Arc Thrower (bye gremlin)

@Jagonchen Sounds cool, I'm guessing the Havoc has the combat knife, the Sapper the Arc Thrower, Pathfinder the Holo-targeter and the Guardian the sawed off?

[WOTC] LW2 Secondary Weapons - James...Already changed your classes to use this mod. It´s really cool to have 8 classes with dif loadouts

@louisifier
Go into this mods ini folder and go into "ClassData" from there change the soldiers you want in the game to forcedeck 4 and and the other one to anything above 1

When adding this mod and starting a new campiagn I do not have any other class choices but these 4.

Is this what is supposed to happen? I thought it was 4 additional classses. If that is true does anyone have any idea why I am not getting the original classes?

Thanks in adnvance

dude we have all told him what to do. even offered to take over and he cant shoot us a text back? Get over defending that guy holy shit I used to work 16 hour das in the army and still had time to do shit xD. come on man

@James sometimes I read so fast I kind of miss entire paragraphs, apparently

@frizzeldian you need to get over yourself, dude. There could be a million reasons why he hasn't updated it, including lack of knowledge to fix something that the developers essentially fucked up with the sparks. seriously, they made a mess out of them to where I'm not going to bother creating them. if you're that upset about a mod not getting updated as soon as you like and consider it rude, you need to get a grip on what should actually be important

@James I'm sorry, I didn't realize that

Hey guys so I'm not if this conflict with the Spark mod is at my end or theirs but I'll have a look.

@Jbfarley if you look just above the acknowledgements it does mention that.

bro he is online playing xcom he isnt updating it. just saying its kinda rude cuz he has so many followers that use his stuff so

@frizzeldian12 he hasn't ignored anything, calm down. he was active on the mod just a week ago. some people have real lives and stuff outside of this crap that takes up a lot of time, and which is way more important than a simple video game. there's no need to get upset about something so trivial

trainable sparks is fucked up. the author of that mod needs to fix his shit but he refuses to do so just ignores the community with his broken mod..

Since before this last weekend, I've been unable to get this mod to play nice with either Metal Over Flesh or Trainable SPARK's - both are spark upgrade mods.

I have no idea why, but if I have this mod running and either one of the other two, I get the screen freeze bug when I try to train a SPARK unit.
