@Orido Then perhaps verification of cache files may help. Otherwise, hopefully the modder themselves can help :)

never touched any of those files

@Orido I am not sure, perhaps -long as you have not edited the ini files of any mods- try verifying cache files...?
It has been a year since I played.

@T'erissk as in the new mod launcher?
T'erissk 5 hours ago 
@Orido That is strange. It worked when I played, but I use "alternative mod launcher". Do not use the normal game's launcher. Its broken and sucks.

@Grei Shoutman I play on Legion Go haha

@Yeroc Your first mistake, was using a controller at all.
Yeroc 27 Nov, 2024 @ 8:07am 
Is there a way to get this to work with controller?

Thanks, I'm actually still in the process of improving it to preview the intel amount as well. That is proving to be more complicated than I would have hoped.

No problem, go for it.

Hello, I would like to integrate this mod in Improved Black Market UI as an optional feature because that was the only way to extend the performance improvements to this feature.

I will go ahead and push the update to it soon if you don't reply. I can still remove it later if you ask me to.

Aside from the fact that the "correct" ratio is 34%, does this mod allow the traded intel to benefit from Inside Job I or II?
Thorke 16 Jul, 2023 @ 3:37am 
Hello, would it be feasible to create another one to sell by alloy?
zin 22 Mar, 2023 @ 4:12am 
@Waste Just change the percentage in the config from 100 to 33.

Just finished a campaign with about 685 mods, this one included, and had no major issues! Thanks for putting this up.
Waste 6 Oct, 2022 @ 6:49pm 
unbalanced beyond belief. literally gives you free money and intel along with still gaining resources when done correctly.

this mod is Great, Thank you so much
Lux Manifestus 20 Sep, 2021 @ 2:22pm 
Can you add the possessed intel amount to the upper-right corner when in the Black Market? It would be helpful.
XpanD 26 Aug, 2021 @ 2:08pm 
Just finished a campaign with about 280 mods, this one included, and had no major issues! Thanks for putting this up, one of my must-haves for any campaign. (even if it is a little busted balance-wise... I won't tell if you won't)

@ Maniut88 -There's no way to officially list a mod as being compatible with both vanilla and wotc, as it's listed as either requiring wotc or not. Ignore it or add the line RequiresXPACK=true in the bottom of the .xcommod file in steam\steamapps\workshop\content\268500\1335226018
Octowy 16 Jan, 2021 @ 3:18pm 
odd thing, im using AML and it says if it is for wotc, it says FALSE
Zyxpsilon 20 Apr, 2020 @ 1:06pm 
After witnessing the crazy balance twists implemented by LW2oTC.. there's a real rational need for functional Trading of both Elerium & Alloys?

Still willing and able, @KRJ12?
Donald J. Trump Sr 30 Mar, 2020 @ 1:17pm 
So why would someone exploit it if it is gamebreaking to exploit it? If people are stupid enough to not know how to play, too bad for them. This mod is very useful and logical to me and thank you @krj12!
† Bayonetta † 9 Feb, 2020 @ 3:53am 
Mod is gamebreaking if you choose to exploit it, buy elirium or alloy for like 30 intel = 25 allow each alloy is 5$, so 5*25=125 intel Its really game breaking! again if you choose to exploit it, i hope there is fix for that!
General Disarray 13 Jan, 2020 @ 12:29pm 
A suggestion: If intel is considered as a scarce resource, would it makes sense to have a "buy for supplies" button as well?
krj12 (Ken)  [author] 17 Aug, 2019 @ 5:05pm 
I've never had this issue. If you have a lot of gui mods, it's possible they may be registering as listeners on every screen - that could potentially slow things down. Nothing special about this mod though that should slow other elements of the screen.
endersblade 17 Aug, 2019 @ 2:30pm 
Going through my mods one by one to try and cut down on how many I have, and doing a lot of troubleshooting. I have an issue with this mod, or what I believe is caused by this mod: Whenever I go to the Black Market and open up the 'Sell' section, the game lags HARD. Not only does it take upwards of 30 seconds for the Sell for Intel button to show up, but adding/removing things to sell or scrolling through the list moves at a snail's pace.

Any idea what's causing this? If I uninstall this mod, it works fluidly. Far as I know, this is the only mod I'm using that touches the Black Market.
The Onyx Tiger 23 Jul, 2019 @ 3:44am 
I forgot I subbed to this haha
루시퍼 22 Jul, 2019 @ 5:47pm 
Um i uninstalled one of dragonpunk mod and its working now i guess. it was related with buying some mission advantage with intel but i forgot the mod name. thanks for replying anyway :)
krj12 (Ken)  [author] 22 Jul, 2019 @ 5:33pm 
i would guess you have a conflict with some other mod. Do you have any other mod with dragonpunk as part of the title?
루시퍼 22 Jul, 2019 @ 1:22pm 
When i added this mod and open the game, there is appdebugmessagef 'error detected attempting load of package: Dragonpunk_Intel_Market
what should i do? (i'm currently using wotc)
The Onyx Tiger 25 Jul, 2018 @ 11:11am 
Sorry about that, Krj12. I forgot mods went there specifically!

Also, can confirm 1366x768 doesn't affect the button at all and that it still works on War of the Chosen! Not sure if it's relevant but the last comment prior to mine was in Feburary.
krj12 (Ken)  [author] 25 Jul, 2018 @ 5:04am 
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\workshop\content\268500\ is where all the mods are located. Just look for this mod id.
The Onyx Tiger 25 Jul, 2018 @ 1:48am 
I don't know where this 'XcomBlackMarketTradesIntel.INI' is. I would like to edit the file to sell Intel for roughly 67% of the Supply cost. I think that would be about fair.

I looked where physical mods are supposed to go but there aren't any 'Mods' folder(s). I did a search of 'XcomBlackMarketTradesIntel.INI' right in the Steam directory of XCOM 2 with no results. I even tried looking in My Games in My Documents to see if it ended up there.

I've modded games a lot (downloaded) in the past, but maybe I am just missing something. Otherwise, this mod is absolutely fantastic! I really enjoy being able to also use Black Market Usage mod with it to know what I could and should not sell. If I am low on either resource I could sell my excess corpses or SIMs.
Lux Manifestus 20 Feb, 2018 @ 11:13am 
Does anyone have an opinion on what sales percentage for intel is fair for balancing reasons?
Coolio Wolfus 21 Nov, 2017 @ 2:41am 
Be nice for completion if there was a Buy for Supplies option or a mod to add Intel to Supply Drops...?
cb6dba 4 Nov, 2017 @ 3:19pm 
Just noticed that items from Grimy's Loot Mod WOTC can be traded for intel over and over again..
It's not a game killer mind but open to abuse.
krj12 (Ken)  [author] 4 Sep, 2017 @ 4:19am 
yes, i ran missions, it works fine.
Arkhangel 3 Sep, 2017 @ 8:23pm 
@krj: did you run any missions? always a good idea to do that. turns out the new Evac All actually conflicts with a few updated mods and makes the game crash, so it's wide to double check.
Social_Decay 3 Sep, 2017 @ 6:51pm 
TY krj12,
can confirm, just traded for intel in WotC
krj12 (Ken)  [author] 3 Sep, 2017 @ 2:23pm 
Did some testing and it appears to be WoTC compatible.

@Diablo™ ( music ):

Some people are too damn lazy :P

Had you read a few posts down you'd have read that the author is currently undecided yet.
