Was gonna come and make a request, saw that you got 28 pages of them, decided I'd just say I hope you have a good day mate. Appreciate what you've done for the community, modders don't get enough thanks.

Hey dude Ik this is random asf but can u pleasse make a Bodhi from PD2 in Xcom2. he's one of my favorite heisters in the game :re2zombie:
TehBluPanda 9 Nov, 2023 @ 8:16pm 
Fair, thanks anyway
Max 9 Nov, 2023 @ 8:12pm 
I'm not giving you a full cosmetic modding tutorial in the comments section of my profile.
TehBluPanda 9 Nov, 2023 @ 7:55pm 
I managed to make a proper msk and it works just fine except the textures from the ripping software don't cover the entire mesh. (For instance, the vest is missing it's entire back part and thus has a burnt-looking black texture.) How did you get around that and texture the entire mesh?
Max 7 Nov, 2023 @ 11:37am 
I took the relevant textures and assembled them into a usable Mask texture with GIMP, by putting the textures into their own layers then combining them via composing them (Colors > Components > Compose). GIMP needs to be in Grayscale mode to do this (Image > Mode Grayscale).

Also, you should check out E3245's Materials Guide for an in-depth look at X2's various materials and how their textures should be set up.

Hey, I'm new to all this but I'm trying to port a D2 armor into X2 and the model rips I found don't contain an MSK map. How exactly are you making your own? At the very least could you point me to some tutorials?
Katsuki Bakugo 2 Nov, 2023 @ 12:04pm 
Hey, I've seen your Xcom 2 mods and they are awesome. Great job. Do you think you could do an idea of mine?
DeathClawDC 28 Sep, 2023 @ 2:31am 
Can you teach me how to mod xcom 2?
I know how to mod unreal engine 4 games
D3athspartn 14 Jun, 2023 @ 5:03pm 
Hey there! This may be bold of me to ask but i have been wanting to get into modding xcom 2 and have had a huge idea for a large Destiny themed mod. I see you are a destiny fan and that your work is incredible! if you are interested I could share some details with you but I understand if you are busy or would rather not. Either way, thank you for your time.

Voice tutorial bro? :´c i want to make voicepack

Quite a few modding questions on here. Kind of need to add on to the list. Do you reckon you will ever take a look at modding half life alyx weapons into XCOM2?
Mordecai 28 Apr, 2023 @ 8:55am 
Hey man. I absolutely love your work. I hope you have plans for Quake 4 arsenal for WotC, because in my opinion they would fit perfectly for Xcom environment. Thank you for your hard work :)
Max 10 Apr, 2023 @ 9:51am 
I have literally never done any kind of cosmetic modding for GMod and don't plan to in the immediate future.
JMcGee7 10 Apr, 2023 @ 8:10am 
Don't know how it works so it probably sounds ridiculous but is there a way for you to port those Crimson Lance models into gmod with the primary & secondary colour options?
The gmod ones available are all stuck with 𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘱𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘴...
Max 14 Mar, 2023 @ 11:41pm 
Oh ♥♥♥♥, you actually came back after six years? That's funny you mention a dummy's guide to cooking, as i literally had the tab open for it in my browser for an unrelated reason: https://www.reddit.com/r/xcom2mods/wiki/index/cooking_for_dummies

I didn't fix up all of your packs, obviously, just some of the more popular/stand out ones. The cooking process for VPs usually shrinks them down by a HUGE factor, it's not uncommon to see 10x reductions in size for them, sometimes even more, so you should update as many of yours (if not all of yours) as possible, but of course it's up to you. You can either friend me on Steam or contact me on Discord (same name and avatar) for more info.

Hey I was interested in seeing if I could fix up my old voice packs after reinstalling XCOM 2 and saw that you had already done most of the work. Good job, glad you did. I'm curious if there exists a step by step "Baby's Guide to XCOM2 Voice Pack Cooking" to hold my hand through the process? Part of the reason I quit modding, aside from burning out on the game and lack of time, was the knowledge that all these huge packs were hogging memory and messing up performance for everyone that used them. So I feel like I do need to fix this bloated crap.
Max 3 Feb, 2023 @ 2:51pm 
I could. Probably. Possibly. Maybe.
Crazy Abdul .i. 3 Feb, 2023 @ 2:19pm 
Hello, you made a great mod with SPARK's in XCOM 2, and I just wanted to ask you if there is a possibility to make something simillar for soldiers, make their appereances free of tech. armor level? If that's not hard, that could be a rlly cool.
Stolas 20 Dec, 2022 @ 12:35pm 
Would you be interested if we work on a Voice pack for the SPARK on XCOM 2? I'm thinking of working on E-102 Gamma from Sonic DX. Send Friend Request if interested. ;)
🕷WidøwMaker🕷 5 Nov, 2022 @ 1:18pm 
hi Max, you create custom mods to order?
RubyJabberwocky 21 Oct, 2022 @ 2:01pm 
A wee PsyCHotic bird told me you had interest in RDR2 voices and stuff or something like that.
Edit:Ed 15 Sep, 2022 @ 12:53pm 
Sent friend request because I'm trying to understand how to use cooking to reduce the space my modstack takes up. And I keep hitting a brick wall whenever I try. I'm following the guide and the videoguide but keep getting weird errors. I thought I'd turn to someone with a proven track record of cooking other people's mods to either teach me, or possibly help me if I'm just too far gone.
Ct422 9 Sep, 2022 @ 6:40pm 
Any chance on a mod to add the fallen from Destiny? Seems like a cool idea but no one on the workshop seems to have done it yet
Phillip 18 Aug, 2022 @ 8:13pm 
Not sure if you do requests, but would you consider doing V1 from ULTRAKILL for a future mod? That would be real cool to have for soldiers.
leon.oberti2002 3 Aug, 2022 @ 7:49am 
Hello, I'm having an issue with your Jetstream Sam mod. I'm playing lwotc, and was wondering if the two mods aren't compatible since the murasama just remains at tier 1 even after I unlocked better swords. Do I need to buy an arc blade for the tier 2 murasama to appear?
Maxizee 31 Jul, 2022 @ 1:45pm 
Thank you for everything you've done for the xcom modding scene :jawagrin:
Hot Wet Nobel Laureates 20 Jun, 2022 @ 8:14pm 
I dont know if you're still cooking mods, but if you are, could you cook Kartoffel's Aliens: Colonial marines Armor mod?
unknowngamer64 10 Jun, 2022 @ 2:54pm 
would you be willing to make some or update some star wars mods on xcon 2?

Frost 6 May, 2022 @ 8:21pm 
hello, do you do comissions?
Garbage 24 Apr, 2022 @ 2:21pm 
Would you consider picking up some of the older Halo mods on xcom that havent been updated in years?
DrFreeman 22 Apr, 2022 @ 2:13pm 
I have problems with one of yours mods. I have missing models from half life weapons for WOTC and I dont know where to get them. In menu I have weapons but they are invicible. (I have downloaded all content for this addon)
MamajKhan™ 11 Apr, 2022 @ 1:38am 
hi
so you know how you made that big smoke mod ?
well, how about a CJ mod, or a Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition model pack or something like that.
(PS: love your work, would like to see more.)
Max 18 Mar, 2022 @ 11:34am 
It's a pretty straightforward process, but not everyone has the time or patience to cook their entire mod library like i do. And there's also people who haven't been active for years who will likely never get around to cooking all their old mods.
Stormie 18 Mar, 2022 @ 7:52am 
Just wanted to say that I love your optimized XCOM 2 mods!
If you don't mind me asking, is asset cooking that difficult or tedious? Because I wonder why other modders not cook their assets like yours, leaving them hundreds of MBs heavy.
Phillip 20 Feb, 2022 @ 6:54am 
You think you could make a pack of the Praetorians from ReshiKillim's Requiem For Man mod? They said they'd help with it should someone want to make a mod for cosmetics.
WeaponisedMoron_2 13 Feb, 2022 @ 5:39am 
There is only one thing i want... And that is to let you know that you are awesome.
CRUNCH 18 Jan, 2022 @ 10:54pm

Dark Lagiacrus 3 Jan, 2022 @ 3:58am 
do u have any character pool ? where all / most of ur armors already in it ? so i dont have to create them all myself ?
CloakerSFM #FixTF2 14 Nov, 2021 @ 5:27pm 
Any chance we could get the Bio Division armors? A lot of them seem to just be standard ADVENT gear but with unique helmets and paint patterns
MattySwizz 8 Oct, 2021 @ 8:15pm 
Bro I love your armor mods for Xcom 2! I see you're playing warframe, any chance of getting some armors from that? Like Excalibur?
Ratlander69 29 Aug, 2021 @ 12:37pm 
You should make a Dark Souls cosmetic pack, and put the giantdad set in it
nathanx2000 28 Aug, 2021 @ 5:55am 
Sent you a request because I want to gift you something, You can remove me immediately after, this is the only way Steam will allow me sadly
2BVayne 3 Aug, 2021 @ 2:09pm 
I know I'm late but TYSM for making the Project Vayne squadmate <3
Hallows Elf 11 Jul, 2021 @ 11:23am 
Love the Chimera squad imports, 10/10 hope to see more.
NightNinja54 14 Mar, 2021 @ 3:04pm 
Hi Tully, sent you a friend request for mod co-contribute
Max 2 Feb, 2021 @ 9:16pm 
No.
SirDrone 2 Feb, 2021 @ 7:57pm 
I'll just leave this comment here but are you interested in Commissioned work?
The Rach 16 Jan, 2021 @ 8:27pm 
The Detroit swat model is awesome! Any other DBH ports to look forward too?
