Description:
✦ Advent Angels – Soldier Cosmetics

This addon brings the Advent Angel armors into XCOM’s armory, letting your barracks equip the same sleek, stylized gear used by the Angel operatives. It’s a lightweight expansion that builds atop the main Advent Angels mod for its assets, updates, and lineup progression.

This initial release includes the Stunlancer set, with the Trooper set arriving as soon as it’s released. Future families will roll in alongside the main project’s pipeline. You can keep track of the lineup status at its Steam Discussion.


✦ What This Addon Does
  • Adds Angel armor sets to XCOM soldier customization
  • Offers MCM options for disabling outfits based on category or family
  • Outfits disabled in your MCM settings are automatically purged from your armory

Whether you’re looking to theme a squad, match Advent’s newest psy-ops mascots, or simply expand your cosmetic library, this addon helps bridge the battlefield and the barracks.


✦ Requirements

This addon requires assets from the main mod: Advent Angels – Steam Workshop
To disable enemy reskinning and only keep cosmetics, disable the top option in the main mod’s MCM menu; the cosmetics are instead controlled via their standalone MCM menu.


✦ Armory Purge Details

By borrowing code from the Cosmetics Locker mod, outfits disabled in your MCM settings are purged from your armory. Since this mod would eventually include hundreds of cosmetic pieces, this helps mitigate the mod’s armory spam for more laser-focused subscribers.

Since this is an uncommon feature, here are the high-level details:

  • It is opt-in; none of my cosmetics are purged by default
  • The purge happens on game launch
  • Purge settings changed in the MCM require a relaunch to take effect
  • Can be used to hide families you don’t want. Ex: Stunlancer
  • More filtering options will come with the release of Hoggy’s more-detailed lineups


✦ Note on Version 1.02

Soldiers in v1.00 and v1.01 save files that have the Stunlancer Torso or Legs will have those cosmetics slots reset to their default armor tier. In v1.02+, the mod now follows CHL convention for torsos and legs, so this reset won’t affect subscribers to v1.02 and onwards.
