unblest Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 http://static-8.nexusmods.com/15/mods/151/images/505-1-1425326744.jpg I'd like my vanilla EW barracks to show me stats like above linked image, which was taken from Long War. Are there any mods that allows me to do this or should I just shut up and play LW?
Dethraker Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 I wouldn't phrase it "shut up and play LW" but there are several mods coming out now that change things in the Long War mod. If there's something you don't like about it there's a chance it has been modded out, or at least adjusted.

It's not that I don't like LW as I haven't even tried out the mod, but I saw the screenshot and was wondering if there's any mod that shows soldiers' stats like that without installing LW.
dubiousintent Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 (edited) Short answer: No. Long answer: The people who worked out the stat's UI display changes are all on the LW dev team or working on LW related mod projects. Despite their initial stated intent to retro fit "LW for EW" to "LW for EU", with the announcement of XCOM2 it looks unlikely for that to happen (but I don't speak for the dev team or other mod creators). No one not involved in that project has a clear idea of what is involved, but from the R&D threads it appears to be complex. So, if you REALLY want such a mod, you will need to create it yourself. If you are interested, I can point you to the relevant wiki articles. But you will need to get into Flash SWF actionscript (kismet) as well as UDK modding. Steep learning curves if you don't already have a programming background. -Dubious- Edited October 18, 2015 by dubiousintent
