Attempt 1

Failed. Forgot to make a metalog.

Failure symptoms:

  • First mission has only 4 soldiers
  • CTD as I launched the mission

Attempt 2

Based on my experience modding Mass Effect 1/2/3, my failure probably was caused by conflicting mods. So in this attempt I will attempt a bisecting.

——————————

07:45, 16 February 2019 (CET) Clean Up

  • Uninstalled the game
  • Deleted the XCom-Enemy-Unknown folder from Steam
  • Deleted all Config files in My Games

07:46, 16 February 2019 (CET) Reinstall

  • Reinstall the game
  • Install Long War, installer name: Long War EW 1.0 for PC-88-1-0.exe
  • Started a new game, got into the Tactical Mission no problem with 6 soldiers
  • Close the game

——————————

I'll install the first 10 that does NOT need any additional actions outside of LWMM (Long War Mod Manager):

  • AdditionalSpecies
  • AlienSightRangeIndicator_AllVisibleAliens_pepo1
  • Alien_Strategic_Stats
  • BetterBlueshirts
  • CameraYaw-EU-EW
  • CameraZoom-EU-EW_pepo1
  • Carlock + CustomizeUniqueSoldiers
  • Carlock_Reward_Soldier
  • Display_XP_PsiXP_Mobility_in_Battle_LWb15
  • EnableCameraPitch-EU-EW_pepo1

——————————

07:56, 16 February 2019 (CET) LWMM Completed

07:59, 16 February 2019 (CET) Successful. First mission started okay. Continuing with the next batch.

——————————

We'll continue with the next batch of 10 that again does not need additional actions outside LWMM:

  • EnhancedTacticalInfo
  • EXALTReminder
  • FixesWillBonusAndPsi
  • GeoscapePause
  • HunkerDownFineTuneLW
  • LightningReflexes
  • more_hours
  • NMOREW
  • NoChainPanic
  • QE-Free-Rotation-EW

——————————

08:05, 16 February 2019 (CET) LWMM Completed with the above additional 10 mods

08:08, 16 February 2019 (CET) Success! First mission started okay with 6 soldiers. Continuing with the next batch.

——————————

Next batch of 10:

  • QuietBradford
  • Revenge of the Sleeves
  • rookie_equips_defaults_b15E
  • Sequential Overwatch
  • SoldierGenderEW
  • Steam Vent Location Tweak
  • Switch_Hangar-SituationRoom_MenuLocations
  • ToneDownOverwatchSound_pepo1
  • VanDoorn_in_March
  • VirtualRealityTraining

——————————

08:13, 16 February 2019 (CET) LWMM Complete

08:18, 16 February 2019 (CET) Success!

——————————

Final batch of "self-contained" mods:

  • Item Grid for Long War

——————————

08:25, 16 February 2019 (CET) LWMM Complete

08:33, 16 February 2019 (CET) Success!

Easily visible mods seems to be working, although actual functionality I cannot vouch yet.
Will continue with non-self-contained mods after this.

——————————

Change of plan: I will now test all 31 mods for proper functioning, whenever possible. (Some mods require certain situations that may or may not be easily triggered).
