I dont know what others are talking about, i loaded this up with 250 mods using aml to find conflicts and it loaded on the first try, maybe it is the version i am using, IDK but it works perfect for me. I am using highlander 1.22.7
I give up, it's impossible to install. I spent 5 hours installing different versions... 2 mods and they don't launch at all, or an overhaul error, or the game just closes during startup
Anyone know if the latest 1.28.1 highlander for wotc can be used instead of the link to the version specifically for LW of the Chosen or if that version should be used? I realized this was also available on the steam workshop and am just going to work with it through there instead.
For ppl having problems with mods. I am running GoG version of xcom 2 wotc with all mods (legit one)
I had a problem few years back installing Long War with mods, I fixed it by mistake, i figured out there must not be any spaces in folder's name, after i renamed all mod folders to example "My Mod Name" to "MyModName", it started working.
Also don't forget to fix all the folder names in your xcom folder mod file "X:\XCOM 2\XCom2-WarOfTheChosen\XComGame\Config\DefaultModOptions.ini"
And make sure mods you use are WotC compatible, there is difference with bettwen Xcom 2 and Xcom 2 WotC as far as mods go.
As for mod update, for those that don't have steam account like myself, i use "https://catalogue.smods.ru/game/xcom-2/" it has a lot of adds, but it has basically all steam workshop mods, could be some other pages with this functionality, but i use this one for years with no problems
There is a v1.0.5.2 from August 5th at Github (/long-war-2/lwotc). I would love to play the latest 1.1 beta, but apparently it's only available on Steam, where I can't find a download button :(
Hello - so I have XCOM2 War of the Chosen with all the DLC's on GOG. I've seen conflicting info online with this mod working with GOG version. Some people say it works for them, others say it doesn't work at all and you need Steam.
I've downloaded mods for the base XCOM2 game, including Long War 2 and it works. Along with evac_all and stopwastingmytime. (only mods I tried)
But for WOTC, I can only get CommandersChoice and EvacAll_WOTC to work. PerfectInformation crashes the game after my initial move in Gatecrasher but this mod isn't all that important at this time. The one I want to work is LongWarOfTheChosen because without it, its hard to play vanilla WOTC with its slow pacing and lack of all the other features Long War provides.
The error I get when I include LongWarOfTheChosen is "error detected attempting load of package LW_Overhaul" and the game crashes before before the first splash screen. There's nothing helpful on the internet about this particular error but surely I can't be the first to run into this at this point. I've tried loading the mod by itself, I've had it first in the list and last in the list but still get this error everytime. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
I've tried everything to get it to work with the GOG version with the same results you describe. Seems to be a mod for Steam users only. I don't understand why the the mod for the basic Xcom 2 works on Gog version but not this?
it doesn't, apparently it's because the Epic Games Store version uses the EGS online services instead of the Steam one, which is what this mod is made to work with. Same with all of the Long War standalone mods (alien pack and leader pack dont work on the EGS version).
If you try to launch it, you'll most likely end up with a crash citing the incorrect load of "LW_Overhaul" package, though if it does work I'd love to hear how you did it.
