RPG Overhaul - TacFor Class Pack Specializations

Description
Features
This specialization pack adds 4 additional specializations from James's awesome TacFor Class Pack to Musashi's absolutely fantastic mod RPG Overhaul. These specializations contain 28 perks from the TacFor classes, Long War 2, and the base game which were not previously available in RPG Overhaul.

The classes from the original mod had many more perks at their disposal than the ones that are contained in this mod. However, these other perks are either already part of the base RPGO specializations or available in other plugin mods for RPG Overhaul. This means that the specializations in this pack should not be treated as complete classes. They are meant to be combined with others to create new and powerful builds.

Known issues
  • Some people have had problems when installing new RPG Overhaul plugins and adding them to existing campaigns, so do this at your own risk. To make sure the perk trees are updated correctly, I highly recommend using shiremct's mod [WOTC] Additional Soldier Console Commands. To rebuild your soldier's perk trees with this mod, go into their armory screen and use the console command "RebuildSelectedSoldiersClass" to refresh the perks and keep the soldier's rank the same.

Thanks and Credits
Musashi for making RPG Overhaul.
James for making and giving me permission to use his mod TacFor Class Pack.
Pavonis Interactive for making Long War 2 and all the perks that came with it.
Favid for porting the LW2 Perk Pack for WOTC and helping me fix stuff.
Mister Gruffle on Youtube for his fantastic XCOM 2 series which inspired me to start making mods.

The perk trees have not yet been extensively tested and balanced. They are therefore subject to change.

Syndrome Of A Down 11 Mar @ 8:57pm 
Line 71 of the XComRPG.ini is commented so that the Warden class wasn't getting it's weapon restriction. Taking the comment off now and I assume it'll work but I'll lyk if it doesn't!

I don't know if it's me but for some reason Phalanx Protocol doesn't work and the germlin doesn't go to all of my squad and give them the defense buff.

It is commented out intentionally so it doesn't appear for random classes.
Malek Deneith 7 Jun, 2020 @ 2:02pm 
Just want to point out that Warden specialization has it's SpecializationMetaInfo commented out, which in turn means it gives no weapon proficiencies when used with Weapon Restrictions. This could be problematic seeing as it has some gremlin-reliant perks.

Again, this mod does not add any "classes". It adds specializations (rows) for RPGO's single class called "Soldier" (UniversalSoldier is the template name used for console commands.

If you can't figure it out, please provide a detailed explanation in the Bug Reports thread of what exactly you are doing (which console commands etc.), your mod list (pastebin) and screenshot(s) of the soldier in question.
bstar  [author] 3 Aug, 2019 @ 10:34pm 
What do you mean the "classes" don't show up? This mod doesn't add classes, it adds specializations for the Soldier class in RPGO. Also, if you added this plugin after your soldiers were promoted, you need to rebuild them using the custom console commands in RPGO.

I didn't use the original tacfor class I only subscribed to required items for this mod.
bstar  [author] 25 Apr, 2019 @ 11:16pm 
Question - are you using the original TacFor class mod at the same time as this mod? I know most other plugins require the respective class mod so it would make sense if some people assumed it was the case here. The reason I ask is that the original class mod is still using an old version of XMB and could be causing this bug.
Gojosin 25 Apr, 2019 @ 9:30pm 
Here's hoping that it's fixed now. Had this bug earlier in the day and I was thinking of wiping my mods and remodding it. Then I saw this update just now. So I'll give it a go and see what happens.

I am using both rpgo tacfor and rpgo Guardsmen mods, at the end of the 5th mission, finish the mission - hit continue on the 'Mission Complete' screen - screen go black - freeze - unfreeze and advent broadcaster talked a little bit - freeze again and crash to desktop. Same end-of mission crash as I had before this update. If I disable this mod while keep rpgo guardsmen mod, the game runs fine without crash
