Technical Breakdown
The ‘xcom2 male only combat mod’ replaces all female combat units, including those in the Resistance Ring and Resistance Haven, with male counterparts. The mod achieves this by modifying the game’s “XComGame.ini” configuration file, replacing female character class names with male equivalents. Additionally, the mod modifies various game assets, such as character textures and voice files, to ensure consistency with the male-only combat theme.
Performance Optimization
The mod’s implementation follows best practices for performance optimization. It utilizes a modular approach, allowing users to selectively enable or disable certain components of the mod, reducing its overall impact on system resources. Furthermore, the mod leverages the game’s existing animation and sound systems, ensuring minimal overhead and maintaining a consistent user experience.
Compatibility Considerations
The mod has been extensively tested for compatibility with a wide range of XCOM 2 versions and community-developed mods. It has been designed to seamlessly integrate without causing conflicts or disrupting the game’s stability. However, users should note that the mod may not be compatible with all mods, particularly those that modify character or unit behavior.
