Pinetree Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 As this mod seems to have died and appears to be unavailable, I've decided to re-release it. I've converted the mod so it can be used in the Mod manager. This does not incorporate any of Ogaburan's changes so this version is as it was for V.22 (pre-1.0). I haven't added any flags for XCE. I probably won't do any more work on this mod, I'm just making it available again. Download link is at the bottom of the post. Enjoy Original text below: The purpose of this mod is to expand on the backgrounds of Xenonaut grunts, add more names, and to add some more nations. Parts of this mod have been incorporated into the official game: *denotes nation that comes with the vanilla game. The nations included in the mod are: NATO: United States* United Kingdom* Canada* West Germany* Greece* Spain* Italy* Portugal Norway* Netherlands* Denmark* France* Belgium Turkey Iceland Western Allies: Australia* Malaysia New Zealand* Japan* South Korea Warsaw Pact: Soviet Union* East Germany* Hungary* Bulgaria Czechoslovakia* Romania Poland Communist Bloc: Vietnam China Cuba North Korea Non-Aligned or Neutral Nations: Rhodesia South Africa Israel Egypt Sweden* Finland* Ireland Brazil Nigeria Kenya Morocco Philippines Indonesia Mexico Thailand Chile Argentina Austria Switzerland Yugoslavia I've also expanded most nation's available regiments and/or made them more "elite". This represents the nations giving the Xenonauts their best of the best. The combat experiences are all historical wars from the 60's and 70's that a soldier's nation was involved in but you will get the occasional non-historical result due to there being no relationship between a soldier's age and previous combat experience when they are generated. e.g you might get a 21 year old veteran of Vietnam. Here's the full list of nations with units and possible experiences: NATO: United States Units: Army Special Forces (AKA The Green Berets) Airborne Navy SEALs Marine Force Recon Army Rangers Experience: Vietnam El Salvador - Special Forces only Angola - Special Forces only Laos Dominican Republic '65.

Freiherr Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 The ethnic demographics are not right. There are a disproportionately large number of African-Canadians and African-Americans, yet neither Asian-Canadians or Asian-Americans. There are also no ethnically African South Africans, despite including 32.Battalion being included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desert hamster Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 (edited) I only seem to be getting default nations. I got one Brazilian and one Swiss guy after about 10 tries. I get lots of hungarians fins and czechoslovakians but no other nations. how do i fix that? i use the community addition mod with this edit - i just noticed that the swiss were added later on in the vanila, so the mod is not registered at all Edited March 28, 2021 by desert hamster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EurekaSeven Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Bit of late, but That really helps a lot with my own research on Warsaw Pact elite forces that can be mentioned in Xenonauts Universe. Thanks! Though I'm little bit curious, as you've listed a lots of less known conflicts that a PACT personel might involved into, but you never mentioned the Operation Danube aka Prague Spring in '68. It was one of the biggest depolyment involving almost all of the Warsaw Pact countries and also includes special opeartions and sabotage (e.g. Spetznaz caputure of Ruzyne Airport), so I'm guessing it could be one of the most common combat experience for a PACT soldier during the period. I'll say REFORGER might also be an available experience for US soldiers as it includes exercises dealing with a possible Soviet invasion against Germany.

If I recall correctly, at the time I didn't include Danube as there was minimal combat but feel free to add it in your personal copy, it's pretty easy to do. Reforger, as you say, were exercises only so didn't count in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the downloads are broken due to the recent forum hack. You might try coming back in a couple of weeks to see if the download works, but there is always a chance that the download is lost forever. Alternatively, maybe someone has a copy of the file hand on their desktop somewhere? Maybe you can try joining the Xenonauts discord and asking if someone has has a copy.
