[WOTC] Helmet Glass Fix

Description
***For a version of the mod which changes the Andromedon customization Helmet and the Anarchy's Children helmets, please use:

https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1541079127

Subscribe to only one version.

All the glass materials in WOTC were replaced with a more performance-optimized version which uses dithering. This is real noticeable, at least for me if I don't use FXAA antialiasing, and it looks very ugly...

You can tell the dithering happens in the before photos. You may want to open this page in a web browser to be able to zoom into the photos and see the effect.

This mod replaces the glass material of most of the Upper Face Prop and Helmet / Hat items with the vanilla XCOM 2 version of the glass material.
IMO this looks sooo much better.

There might be a performance cost when using this mod, just so you are aware.

Uninstallation of the mod should be safe.

- Plated 2, 4
- Powered 1, 2, 3, 4
- [TLP] Tunnel Rat Helmet
- [TLP] Tunnel Rat Helmet without Light


NOTE: The mod doesn't touch any items outside of the soldier headgear. I don't know how to change the environmental glass materials anyway, I'm pretty much a modding noob. Perhaps with time and experience... :S

Good luck, Commander!

I have a problem AML is saying there's a duplicate line?

Thanks, downloading the mod RN.

Without the mod it's dark-tinted, with the mod it should be clear or slightly bluish

Are the glasses supposed to be dark-tinted? (I don't have this mod but I'm wondering if this changes that or something.)

No, it wouldn't but snowflake over there would prefer that. Some people...

How I presume this mod works is that it replaces the helmets themselves with versions with new "glass textures" rather then replacing general glass textures.

So it wouldn't effect mods.

You'll probably need to ask the authours for those other mods.

Well, I'd prefer a version that works for mods. And it works without TLP.
Poo Sparks  [author] 24 Apr, 2020 @ 2:27pm 
It's strange if it affects other mods, as the method I used should only change the helmets from the description list.
And yeah you need TLP because some of the changed helmets are from TLP.
CompleteTrash 23 Apr, 2020 @ 9:13am 
Does this work with mods? And do you need TLP?
