Either issue has nothing to do with this mod.

on the topic of primary weapon i'm having an issue where the class refuses to let me equip a primary pistol or weapon in that slot for that matter, im either stuck with the default or no weapon

I occasionally see comments about losing overwatch when using this class. The issue, which I'm not 100% sure of, is that when messing with your loadout the order in which you select their weapons matters.

If you select their secondary first, and then primary, the game doesn't consider the soldier to be wielding a primary weapon it appears, and thus it only shows a "secondary" shooting option even though it does fire both weapons.

The solution to fix this is to select your primary weapon and then secondary so it re-recognizes your primary weapon and the overwatch option returns.

Hmm not sure why but my pistols aren't showing visually (no problem don't really care)
But it shows my pistols have no ammo, and I can't reload either (so can't shoot) and pistol whip does no damage not sure why. I have all the dependencies

NVM there 2 versions of the class for LWOTC.

@Iridar The LWOTC "version" of your mod was butchered so hard it is unplayable.

Pretty sure there's a separate version of this class for LWOTC somewhere.

For anyone trying to use this mod with LWOTC and is having issues with mobility being decreased, the problem is LWOTC itself. In XComLW_Overhaul.ini change each pistol weight=1 to 0. Also you might want to enable the line "DISABLE_LW_PISTOL_SLOT=true" as it probably isn't necessary

Why does he cover half the hacking pad with his gun? I can't see anything.

The mod doesn't work when I try to equip star wars pistols from a star wars mod. I made sure not to add the same pistols in primary and secondary slots but no change. Game always crashes afterward whenever I promote someone to this class and leave the armory :(

Glad you fixed it, enjoy the game.

@ It turned out the problem was in the Ammo and Vest mod. Now everything is fine. Thx.

It did inform though? Primary Secondaries or True Primary Secondaries are broken for you, probably by another mod.

@ Dragon32 It doesn't help

Re-read the Description

Hi! I’m having a problem with your mod. I’ve installed all the required dependencies, but I can’t equip pistols in the primary weapon slot—even though they work fine in other slots. I’m out of ideas on how to fix this. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Amazing mod.

It's not the responsibility of the steam workshop nor of the mod authors to sort out your broken mod list. Most mods are made by amateurs in their spare time as a hobby. You pay nothing for using them, so you don't really have a leg to stand on to complain about their quality. As for your issues, all I can say is they are not caused by this mod, because it's simply a soldier class mod that makes no changes to soldier equipment rules.

I'm gonna take true primary and secondaries beta and laser mod off and see if that fixes this.

still trying to sort this mess out they should not allow broken mods into the modding workshop agree?

how come then ever since i downloaded this mod my weapons are now stuck to one type of class instead of a full library of firearms and my guns are missing on my SPARK
?

This is a soldier class mod. It has nothing to do with your problems with weapons. And yes, it was tested and works fine.

gonna enable config upgrade slot mod to see if thats a workaround fix and supressors mod.

i installed an addon to my weapon and swapped the secondary pistol out and now the primary has a big floating silencer 3 feet in front of it. was this mod bug tested even?

when i research laser tech a mod the guns swap option is gun if I unequip the primary gun it's gun forever. just uses hands now. Please post us a fix?

its very much better than the ranger, putting stocks on the revolvers and getting trickshot in the skill tree means it will ALWAYS, without fail, do damage per turn, it cant miss nor be unable to hit someone, it has a 100% hit rate, and with bullet time you can do it TWICE in a single turn, along with base concealment allowing it to position itself without much worry and a super high mag size, this is much closer to the wotc faction in terms of power, to me this mod is insanely busted in a way only mods can be, I love it btw

It's balanced to be around the same power level as vanilla Ranger.

I wish there was more class mods like this that arent super complex and trying to be super over the top, like, say what you will about the balancing (this mod is ridiculously busted) its just really simple and does its job effectively, no giant skill tree, no over the top animations and cosmetics, doesnt feel like a 4th faction, it just is a class and a cool one at that

I have this mod and all the dependencies that go with them, but I can't change the primary pistol. What could I be doing wrong? I messaged on the True Primary Secondaries Beta, but I don't think the mod author is active anymore.
I tried the non beta version with no change.

Dude! Majority of mod in my collection are yours. You're just the best... I just wished there weren't so many requirements to other mods. But awesome regardless:)

Hi, not sure if this is still supported but my Akimbos don't have a pistol overwatch button

thank you good sir

But you can have soldiers of Akimbo class alongside soldiers with proficiency classes.

All soldier class mods are compatible in the sense that you can use them together. If you're asking whether the Akimbo will magically switch to the proficiency class perk system if you use both together, the answer is no.

is this compaitble with proficiency classes? sorry bad english

i think the running animation looks weird and needs some arm movements

Yes, I know. It was a test.
Thanks anyway, I'll look further into it.

Don't use them both together wtf

I tried running some tests, it may boil down to Primary Secondaries / True Primary Secondaries (beta) mods. I tried enabling one at a time, and also enabling both at the same time.
The issue is still there.

@Iridar

I see, thanks for the help.
Any way of identifying this conflict? Apart from disabling addons one by one...

You have a mod conflict. I don't know what it is.

Hi, just tried this mod but apparently cannot equip a second gun in my off-hand.
I have Pistol Dual Wield mod installed as well, and I am playing with Amalgamation.
Any hints on what could be causing this issue?
Thanks.

(Sorry, song just popped up in my head when remembering that I had this installed)

If Fancyneer goes through with Weapon Animations Repository, maybe.

any plans to make this mod work with auto pistols or smgs? like you im a big fan of equilibrium and would be cool if we can dual wield autopistols like the cleric

(interestingly this mod seems to work fine with LWOTC excepting this one detail? weird. anyways)

Ah, nw then. The Akimbo for LWOTC mod that I have just found has so many dependencies... ah well. Thanks anyway!

I don't support LWOTC.

Possibly an issue with Ability to Slot Reassignment, but this class appears to have lost the Overwatch ability, specifically with barebones dependencies for this mod when in use with LWOTC only + any additional mods as well
