DeathJester118 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Hi all Would like to start up modding for Xcom 2 and maybe just modding in general. Would like to add extra weapons, enemies potentially change some other options etc. How does one start modding Xcom 2? Do I need to download a program to edit stuff and im assuming that I need a tool to make 3d models. If anyone could point me in the right direction so I can start this new adventure that would be awesome!Cheers in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wghost81 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Go to Library -> Tools in Steam and scroll down to find XCOM 2 Development Tools. Install it and then open Steam\steamapps\common\XCOM 2 SDK\Documentation\XCOM2 SDK QuickStart.pdf file and read it carefully, because you need to install additional redistributable packages and configure ModBuddy before you start. If you are unable to install some of the packages and/or getting errors on launch, read this topic. XCOM2 is Unreal Engine 3 based, so you most probably need to read this: https://udn.epicgames.com/Three/WebHome.html There are also docs in Steam\steamapps\common\XCOM 2 SDK\Documentation folder you need to read to understand important XCOM2 features, how they work together and how you can modify them. Good luck, Commander! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
