A quick feature wishlist.
So I very much enjoy this mod and what it does, with that said here are some basic things that I think need a look.
1: Shieldbearer armor with colorable plating, currently only the undersuit is affected by colors or patterns, however the helmet is properly colorable and, er, patternable? Either way worth a look.
2: remove ADVENT emblems from armor, self explanatory.
3: texture compression, I was skeptical when it was just helmets but now that we have the full armor I'm almost certain the engine is cutting corners on performance by making ADVENT armor and helmets much lower res than XCOM armor and helmets, I'd greatly appreciate if ADVENT armor on XCOM troopers could be brought up to the same texture level as the other options without tanking performance by causing all of the enemy armor to match.
4: take a look at how patterns are applied, right now there is a very easily visible line of symmetry down the middle when you use most camo patterns with ADVENT armor that disrupts the shapes and patterns found in the camo, though for now I'm satisfied that camo works with the helmets at all.

Amazing mod! Is there a way to keep/add the glow from the original helmets? :)

Great stuff so far. I think it'd be great if you could eventually expand this to include ADVENT armour that looks 'salvaged' as well, sort of like the Combine armour the rebels in Half-Life 2 wore.

Please please pretty please allow WAR / EXO customisation with the ADVENT armours, too.

Adding the cape to the ADVENT Captain torso would be nice.

I love the idea of adding an xcom patch to the armor to distinguish them from the normal ADVENT but I think it would be pretty cool to addd a variant with an XCOM logo spray painted on instead to make it look more ragtag.

Would it be possible to isolate the different armors to respective armor types. when i upgrade the armor and it doesnt become something different, it is rather strange to me.

it'd be really awesome if you could perhaps make a version without the red highlights on various parts of the armor, like the gloves and torso. It'd more easily fit with different fashion designs with a more neutral black or gray versions.

Perhaps tie the colour to eye/hair/tattoo colour. Same with the emissives/diffuse (?) on the Lancer armour.

Advent Face? w/o Helmet? Can it be pulled from cutscenes and environment assets?

I've been thinking the same thing.

Could you make it higher tier only so starting units don't run around with all that Advent stuff? It seems a little strange to have them mock Advent with salvaged armor already at the start of the game. :)

I noticed the silder. Thanks! :)

I have an extremely humble wish here, actually.

A separate mod, just the cape-ish thing, with a right shoulder variant too.
