Description:

CPP Framework is a repository of ability code from three major class mods sourced into one package: LW2 Classes, Richard Classes and Mitzruti Perk Pack.

Both Chimera Classes and Chimera Heroes rely on the ability code within this pack, which is heavily modified for their needs.

CPP diverges significantly from the original author content, with scripts & animations either being outdated now or redesigned for a new purpose.

Fair warning, this pack is NOT:

– A bolt-on or replacer for existing mod dependencies.

– A means to add new content into existing save-games.

– A way to correct or modify the original packs by loading alongside.

• 454 community-made perks available in one integrated script package.
• Hundreds of perk spelling and grammar corrections, with help text given proper formatting.
• Vague perk descriptions overhauled, with actual modifier values now displaying.
• Cooldowns and Weapon Ammo costs balanced for consistency.
• Missing Promotion Help Text and Icon Flyover text added for all Mitzruti & Grimy abilities.
• 80+ new Perk Icons applied for more visually diverse abilities. (Ketaros & Xylth Icons)
• 95 Community Perks added to the random AWC Pool.
• Some rare-grade PCS Loot will occasionally show up in missions (LW2 content)
• Some extra Gene Mods if Gene Modding is installed (Mitzruti content)
• Melee weapon perk localisation fixes for Primary Melee users.

Perk packs are script heavy. Under no circumstances run the following with CPP. Doing so will at best cause overwrites and minor perk bugs, at worst will cause hard crashes, lockups and save-file corruption.

• WOTC Hero Classes Rebalance
• Mitzruti Perk Pack
• Richard’s Classes Redux
• Long War 2 Classes & Perks
• RPG Overhaul
• LWOTC
• Proficiency Class Pack
• A Better Barracks: TLE – (Note that ABA is absolutely fine)

Clearing the user INI cache is really important for stability, since it often contains leftover values from old mods you’ve uninstalled. This is the cause of most crashes in XCOM 2.

It’s a simple enough process, documented on the XCOM Community Wiki.

You should clear your INI cache whenever you make big changes to your mod list. It is best practice to reload to the title screen at least twice after clearing before playing again.
