Cutscene worked just fine from what I can tell. Can't remember if the armour was different or anything but certainly it didn't break anything.

That results in genemod soldiers losing their weapon kits and also runs into the max deco limit. This solution makes genemod soldiers look the exact same as your regular guys, right down to the assaults swanky shotgun bandolier.

So, regarding the whole gene-mod armour situation, I thought I'd drop my finding in. PLEASE NOTE THIS HAS NOT BEEN EXTENSIVELY TESTED After digging about within XComGame.upk I came across a common theme with regard to genemod soldiers. Most of the checks regarding whether to use genemod skins or just normal skins was being determined by HasAnyGeneMod. After finding this tidbit I went in search and was rewarded with XComPerkManager.HasAnyGeneMod, which basically states if any of the genemod perk values are greater than zero, then the solider has a genemod. This obviously leads to the various skins and decos being used etc. Now I'ma bit useless at the whole tutorial malark but I can give it a bash at any rate. Fire up UE Explorer, open up a copy of XComGame.upk and navigate to XComPerkManager. Expand the funtions section and open HasAnyGeneMod. Right click that and select view buffer, this should give you the hex table for the code your viewing along with tooltips for all the tokens. Now we get to the more complicated bit. Get a hex editor like HxD and open your copy of XComGame.upk Now, what you want to do is search with HxD using a hex string from HasAnyGeneMod; you can see these in the buffer window of UE Explorer. You'll need to search for a long enough string of characters that you only get one search result, that means you're in the right place. Now you want to find in UE Explorer all the tokens in HasAnyGeneMod that have the tag intzero. They should appear as 25 in hex code. Using HxD, you want to change the 25 to a 26, which will change the tag after you've saved the file to intone instead. Now, since you can't have multiples of the same mod, you'll never have a value higher than 1. This will result in your gene mod soldiers looking exactly like your regular soldiers, deco and weapon kits et al. The only down side I've noticed so far is that your genemod soldiers lose the yellow symbol around their class symbol, but I think we can live with that :tongue: Gonna go back to testing a bit but let me know if this is useful to you.
