[WOTC] Halo: Infinite – Mark IV Core

This cosmetic mod adds almost the entirety of the Mark IV core from Halo: Infinite to XCOM 2!

This mod applies the options to all armour tiers and for all soldier types and works for both male and female body types.

Most of the helmets work with the default heads, but some might have some minor clipping: as a result, I recommend grabbing the ‘Invisible Body Parts for All’ mod to remedy it (especially if you want to use them on a Skirmisher).

Gauntlet weapons (ripjack, skulljack, psi blades, etc.) probably won’t look great because I didn’t account for them. Consider using mods that either replace their visuals or offer an alternative (like skirmisher swords).

Some parts (notably Silver Team helmets) appear to have weird shading in the character customisation screen, but they look completely fine in game. Safe to ignore.

Both Kai and Riz helmets for the Female body type require an invisible head mod due to clipping. I couldn’t find a way to make them fit without making them look ridiculous.

Just be aware that this mod adds a *lot* of customisation options, so it might get a bit cluttered. Consider yourselves warned!

Visors still aren’t tintable, sorry!

I’ve improved a bit at the whole modeling/texturing thing since the Mark V [B] core, but I’m still no pro, obviously. This one should sit a bit better while still being mostly backwards compatible. Please be aware that I’m not overly concerned with maximum compatibility between cores; some stuff will work better than others.

If you do notice any bugs/issues, please let me know in the comments and I’ll see what I can do. Just remember, I don’t consider clipping to be an issue.

If something ends up being broken or there’s something I want to include later, there’s a chance I’ll get around to it, but no promises.
