Muton's completely broken for me. They're invisible and when i enter a mission with one they don't actually exist, despite being able to tab over to them.

is there any chance one can make sure certain chars are also certain classes for the character pool? I already used some of the races previously and usually enjoy certain chars to be a specific class. I can determine them as rookies via GTS but otherwise since the character pool cannot change it they are random classes everytime when gotten mid campaign

Hey, i have a problem. For some reason, the "Spectres" orders page, in the council, does not appear. And i dont know why. it was there before, but now on my seccond and third playthrough its just gone. Why?

Came in with the same question @fatmanfalling -- thank you for finding out AND posting your answer! I'm loving this mod with even just the basic Mass Effect species added. It integrates very well!
fatmanfalling 24 Nov, 2024 @ 10:30pm 
I answered my own question
It's in this Ini file right here "XComExtraspecies"
fatmanfalling 24 Nov, 2024 @ 10:10pm 
is there a way to increase the amount of nonhumans offered every month?
dallasam96 7 Nov, 2024 @ 2:36pm 
So why is it that no e of the soldiers you buy in the grey market show up in your roster?

Does anyone know how to force an Alien Allies character to their species class? I have the Clone Classes mod, which I think messes with this mods base classes, and now most of my Alien soldiers are of the wrong class. However using the MakeASoldierClass command doesn't seem to work on any of the Alien Allies characters(the command works fine on regular human characters). Is there any way around this?
Komissar Gebet 22 Sep, 2024 @ 7:44am 
Any chance of LWOTC version of this mod?
TheAnonymousOne 22 Jun, 2024 @ 11:30pm 
Figured it out, the soldier spawned by finding the HQ is triggering the unfortunate "UI locks up on promoting a rookie to a soldier" bug. Now I just need to isolate which class I'm using is bugged and set the promotion movie flag to 'false'.
TheAnonymousOne 22 Jun, 2024 @ 11:36am 
Alas, I've tried the CompleteCurrentCovertAction command, restarting the game, and half the commands in the Debug Menu, but I cannot seem to resolve this bug on my own. After the action completes and I click through the menu, the game hides the UI like a cutscene is playing, but nothing happens and the game just stays there on the geoscape, softlocked.
Snekenjoyer6 22 May, 2024 @ 11:54am 
does anyone know how to turn off the new faction?
Katieclysm 5 May, 2024 @ 11:22am 
I want the other XCom species, not every damn ME3 alien race, but Vipers are the only ones that exist?
SexyOctopus 26 Apr, 2024 @ 1:14pm 
So, this doesn't come with any playable races on it's own and is just the framework for all the other race mods then?
Niam 22 Feb, 2024 @ 10:10am 
Having the opposite problem everybody else seems to have. I can recruit aliens just fine every month, but there hasn't been any new human recruits since my game start and I'm well into the second year at this point. I double checked and this is the only mod I have conflicting with LWotC that screws around with UIRecruitSoldiers.
rmfranco 14 Jan, 2024 @ 6:17pm 
Question: Does these alien addons work with LWotC?
TITANMASTER25 16 Nov, 2023 @ 7:01pm 
Same problem as Landrick
Landrick93 14 Nov, 2023 @ 11:39am 
So far none of the alien species in this mod have shown up or have been available in my playthrough so far, so I'm wondering when they're supposed to show up.
Chewybowl55195 2 Oct, 2023 @ 8:48pm 
Recently the mod has been having problems loading with the game is there any fix to this known right now?
Cpt.Haxray 11 Sep, 2023 @ 5:23pm 
Question: I tried checking the ini files. is it possible to disable the Grey Market and non-alien recruit elements, and leaving only way to get them via the Faction?
grammarsalad 9 Aug, 2023 @ 11:30pm 
Does anybody know if it's possible to associate the Spectres with a particular alien and/or class (e.g. like the standard factions are associated with a particular class)?
bparham11 19 Jun, 2023 @ 4:26pm 
I cant recruit any aliens elp
Kinsect 9 Apr, 2023 @ 1:00pm 
so how do I have my Allies unknown character appear in my game from the character pool?
(I'm using the Viper one)
Kinsect 1 Mar, 2023 @ 3:11pm 
Does this work alongside Psionics ex Machine and the missions where you get Meld?
cause when I booted up the game it had the mission but no picture or words on what they say
CHEESEMAN 8 Jan, 2023 @ 11:11am 
Says there is no one to recruit, any fix?
evensiosky.aa 26 Dec, 2022 @ 5:15am 
Am I the only one who can't seem to find salarians to add in?? Can someone help me?
Karmapowered 4 Dec, 2022 @ 6:38pm 
I would like to second @Yuriohs's question, and know if it's possible to somehow disable the default faction ("Spectres"), since I intend to play with another mod that adds a different, compatible faction.

5 resistance factions would make the game significantly easier than I want it to be.

Thank you for advice, and sharing this wonderful mod with us.
LeanWolf 9 Nov, 2022 @ 2:15pm 
Is this compatible with "Rising Tides: The program" mod?
It's me | #FixTF2 #SaveTF2 27 Oct, 2022 @ 11:41am 
How can I remove new units and a faction from the game if I took this mod as an auxiliary one for another, but I don’t need characters from Mass Effect? Both enemies and friends...
Dęąth Viper 23 Oct, 2022 @ 4:00pm 
Just finished a campaign with about 685 mods, this one included, and had no major issues! Thanks for putting this up.
Proxy 14 Sep, 2022 @ 5:09pm 
Do i have to wait one of my Sangheili in my Character pool to show up for recruit or dependent on RNG?
Zaku II (Alias WatcherZigzagoon) 26 Aug, 2022 @ 8:45pm 
dumb question, but is there a way to prioritise characters saved in the character pool for the free unit, or is the free unit always a draw from the lottery of the universe?
Osrio 3 Aug, 2022 @ 5:34pm 
So are the Allies Unknown mods compatible with RPGO?
-shhfiftyfive 21 Jul, 2022 @ 2:19pm 
@ Lux unlike the other 3 factions, there is no unique enemy Chosen tied to the Spectre "faction" so you can just ignore it, or reskin it if you go into the files yourself.
Komissar Gebet 25 Jun, 2022 @ 7:04pm 
@kazuya

There is a mod that changes the faction name to Spectres
kazuya0010 25 Jun, 2022 @ 4:22pm 
Can you please make a replacement mod for this mod and replace it with the council from mass effect?
Zaku II (Alias WatcherZigzagoon) 17 Jun, 2022 @ 7:04pm 
lucky for me, I've more save files stretching multiple runs than I care to count, so getting them back shouldn't be TOO hard.
Zaku II (Alias WatcherZigzagoon) 17 Jun, 2022 @ 6:48pm 
I've just learned the hard way that disabling species mods will purge any non-human soldiers of said species from your pool. not only that but apparently, making a soldier in the character pool will not provide the abilities of the respective species. :SadOtus:
GryphonBane 10 May, 2022 @ 2:07pm 
I keep getting an unskippable mission from the spectres and that mission will not load. Any suggestions?
Yuriohs 15 Apr, 2022 @ 5:35pm 
Anyone know of a way to disable the specters? Trying to do a halo run without having that there. No big deal really just wanted to know if there was a way I was missing.

This is a godsend mod btw, thank you creators for this.
JacksterRat 1 Apr, 2022 @ 3:22am 
is this and its submods compatible with long war of the chosen?
-shhfiftyfive 29 Mar, 2022 @ 5:10am 
you could always just make more in your character pool, so they will eventually show up in the default recruitment menu.
Alexiel 29 Mar, 2022 @ 5:07am 
Can something be changed so that more variety of non-human recruitment appears?

It's just that I never have Turians, or Asaris...
-shhfiftyfive 20 Mar, 2022 @ 9:50am 
sounds like a bug on your end.

you should always have access to (buy) recruit (endless amounts of humans) from the avenger menu.
each month the list adds new recruits, so if that isn't happening for you, you should consider deleting your game config folder.
but first, try waiting til next month and see if more are available for purchase.
Gniadex 20 Mar, 2022 @ 7:40am 
Ech.. I guess it's hard.. If I had tons of recruits there, I wouldn't ask what to do when I don't have any. Except for a few at the start. My character pool is full, but still I don't get any humans recruit in armory. I can't recruit any human there. Only non-human in non-human recruits menu..
-shhfiftyfive 20 Mar, 2022 @ 7:33am 
no. go into avenger's armory and click the recruits menu. you get a ton of recruits to choose from here (the ones you save to character pool can show up here too)
Gniadex 20 Mar, 2022 @ 7:25am 
Scanning sites and covert actions? I know, but this is to small. Especially with so many mods with soldier class.
-shhfiftyfive 20 Mar, 2022 @ 7:03am 
@gniadex
the game already has several ways to get human recruits without needing a mod for that.
Gniadex 20 Mar, 2022 @ 6:37am 
I have small question.. New recruits appear only in non-humans and I don't get any human recruit (except few on star). is there any way for human recruits to show up?
Vanzgars 1 Mar, 2022 @ 5:14pm 
@-shhfiftyfive Thanks, mate.

So I can tailor the faction to my own liking. Nice.
