Yes. In the XComNVG.ini config file, change the settings to following:
AUTO_EQUIP_COSMETIC_NVG = false
AUTO_UNEQUIP_COSMETIC_NVG = false

Can I just remove the default cosmetics and have nothing replace the helmet? Whenever I use the nvg the helmet goes invisible. I just want the functionality and not the visual headgear.

Thanks for the update

Stopping by purely to say this is one of the best Mod Descriptions ever. Chef's Kiss to this one.

One of the coolest mods ever.

No. Those are optional mods. The mandatory stuff is on the sidebar.

Do you need Capnbubs Accessories/One Million Colours? I don't like adding too many cosmetic mods, but your ambience pack looks nice and I like the idea of night/light mechanics

@Aquilio Thank you!

@Vaultwulf
Yeah, should be already available in Engineering when you return to the Avenger.

Can I add this to an ongoing campaign. I have already unlocked the Advent Trooper Corpse.

Absolute love your mods! It's like playing a new game!

@william09703
No, you don't need to do anything else. You're good to go.

got it. so the 202X version one already in the config, should I enable it manually?

@william09703
It's the other way around. If your soldier equips the NVG item, they automatically equip the cosmetic goggle option as well.

By default it's the Capnbubs cosmetic NVG (if you have it installed), but you can disable that in the config. Or even set it to use different cosmetic goggles instead.

Oh, wait. so the NVG effect actually auto applying when you equipped soldiers accessory from either Capnbubs Accessories?

@william09703 It will work with the 202X version as well. You don't need to install both versions of the cosmetic mods.

I'm wondering if we can make the night vision effect apply to [WOTC] Capnbubs Accessories 202X . since both mods have NVG and I only need the effect, not another duplicated accessory

Just wanted to say you're on a serious roll with this latest series of mods. Huge thumbs up. And thank you!

@TheGames The immunities are toggleable in the XComNVG.ini file. Also, I think most people would not be interested in the drawbacks, considering many vanilla/modded items provide the passive bonuses only.

>Also provides immunity to blindness

Time to make a mod that allows enemies to use flashbangs

You should either remove or reverse the immunity to blindness. Not only does it not make any sense, but the item should have some drawback if it's just a passive stat increase.

Do these work in fog? you can get this in a sit rep giving shorter vision/

Thanks aquillo, loving the mod, people like yourself keep the game fresh and innovative.

Here you go.

I have an unrelated question, could you pls tag the freecam mod your using

Sorry forgot the PPSE

You're likely missing the required mod.

nvg mod does not work, i get an error when starting up the game, any advice?

@bidiguilo ... I thought about changing it since I already adjusted the cost/sale of the NVGs (60 supplies is too high). But I'm ok with +8/+4 aim increase. I'll look forward to what ability Aquilio adds with the next update.

I'm thinking about a new ability on top of the aim bonus for the next update as well.

yep it only gives an aim boost, but you can go in the mod folder and increase the boost if you want since the developer added some config settings.

Cool idea and I like the effect, but the only real benefit is the +Aim boost. I like it when a cosmetic actually adds skill points.

Gave it to my reaper, since it fits well. Pretty cool

yes, it was.

@Mae Was it by the Assassin's grenade?

really enjoying this mod! however, soldiers wearing NVGs can still be blinded despite the eye protection effect.

Great mod. But I think 60 supplies per NVG is a tad bit expensive, especially when playing covert infiltration

@Woldy Not exactly. Several Gen III+ night vision devices have auto-gating capabilities, bright source protection and automatic brightness control systems to ensure that the user's retinas don't burn off the moment somebody flashes them.

It's still not recommended to shine a bright light into NOD tubes, but there are some protections.

@Kei I will, thank you.

Thank you for your hard work! I also appreciate your efforts in providing translations. However, I noticed that some phrases seem like they might have been generated using a translator—perhaps they were—and some English phrases are mixed in. I’ve personally made some edits to the .kor files. I humbly request, if possible, that you consider replacing them with these files and incorporating them into the updates when you have time.

dont think being immune to blind makes a lot of sense for this item. If someone shines a flashlight at you when wearing night vision goggles its gonna get stupid bright.

Menase 1-5, going dark

OMG I read it too quick while being high and thought it said it was just an overlay. Which gave me the idea for my comment.

@PYRACOR That's exactly what it is. A utility item with passive bonuses and night vision ability.

Imagine having a utility item or something for this? Equipped units get the vision and some sort of bonus

Been waioting for this mod for a long time. Bravo!

@TrooperCoon, No, my mod does not touch the Night Mission Rules in any way other than visuals.
Other mechanics for the NVG are something to consider in later updates.

Aside from automatically using the visual effect, does using night vision goggles with night mission rules also increase your sight range in the dark?

Thank you very much! :)

Oh, that is sexy!
