Possible incomplete install of Long War B15D2

[davejfox]

Hi guys, I'm pretty new to modding so please forgive any ignorance.

I'm running a macbook with EW that I purcahsed from the App Store. I followed instructions to install the LW mod that I found here (it's different from the standard install for the Steam version) and the process seemed to complete successfully, no error message was given.

 

However, upon playing it, I get the impression that it was not entirely successful. Here are some issues I've noticed:

 

• My rookies have 1% aim and 300+ will, is this normal?
• Fatigue doesn't seem to exist. I've seen screenshots of it displayed on the Soldier info / loadout screen, I'm not seeing it at all.
• Should interceptor experience be displayed anywhere? I've read that it exists in LW but everything about the Interceptor interface is exactly as before.
• Second Wave options seem exactly the same as in vanilla EW, with the exception of Strict Screening being there. In total I have 7 Second Wave options.
• Injury times are crazy, I have one solder who has a recovery time of just under six thousand days after receiving a hit from a plasma pistol.

 

Has anybody else encountered any problems like the above? I'd be grateful for pointers.

 

Thank you in advance :)

Just to update this for anyone interested, I was able to change the paths of the installer file to line up with the app store version, however I think the installer fetches other files that have paths that I could not change, so I ended up with this weird install where it was half Long War half vanilla and lots of stuff was busted. All my troops had 1% aim, infinite will and a bunch of other problems. In the end, I uninstalled LW from the version of X-Com that I bought from the App Store, and re-purchased EW from the Steam Humble Bundle sale (they were selling it for 8 euro, bargain!) and the LW mod installed on that perfectly.
