Hi there, I'm having some issues getting the mod to function. From my understanding I installed everything correctly, barebaremod cosmetics are showing up and look fine, and I have the sex action available (albeit grayed out) for all my soldiers. But not once have I seen any aliens attempt to use the sex attacks. I tried changing the weight of the sex attacks in the studio but that didn't seem to help.

 

The only other thing that could have messed things up from my knowledge is that I downloaded the XComAppearances.ini from retourenarriere that was posted here a while back, but given it is only appearances file I don't think it should be affecting things? I prefer the aliens to remain looking as such which is why I downloaded it. But to double check I also grabbed a file Lucy posted early which seems like it would keep advent the way they are. However all the advent were just invisible with the error icons in the target screen, and on alien turn nobody did anything. I tried starting a new mission but same issue, aliens would only choose to attack, and now they morphed into humans!

 

Not all too sure what I've done wrong here, happy to upload files or screenshots if that would be helpful in resolving since I'm a bit stumped. Thanks!

Can you post the launch.log? Btw, you can use the normal appearances.ini and delete the Sectoid, Spectre, and The Lost lines. The post above is an example of the lines.

I will try those changes to the appearances.ini and see if those fix it, thanks. In the meantime, here is the launch.log file.

I already checked the log. The log looks fine, nothing is broken.
- The gray-out is normal. Sex only becomes available when a valid unit is in range (including after a move).
- I updated retourenarriere’s Appearances file with two versions, male-only and female-only, pick one. Requires Barebaremod, no XSoldier. Only advents change and spawn as naked. Feel free to change their clothes/parts. Backup your old XComAppearances.ini first. 
- Why do aliens barely use Sex? Sex chance and movement both matter. The AI only Sexes in range, if already close it Sexes, if not, it often spends the first move closing, then Sexes with the last action or in the worst case they only overwatch in the position. If that first move still can’t reach you, they usually won’t Sex that turn. This version doesn’t buff base Sectoid mobility, so low-mobility units often never close. High Sex chance won’t help if they’re still too far.

Thanks Lucy, I was busy yesterday and couldn't try your original fix, but will poke around with it and this new file tonight. Also the movement explains one of the behaviors I was seeing. I wondered if range was an issue, so I moved my units to try to be as close as possible to the enemies, sometimes adjacent. Enemies would either overwatch as you said, or run back and try to shoot. My option to sex was grayed out while next to them also, if that means anything.

 

Given you said the installation looks fine, maybe the mod files I downloaded corrupted or bugged out, or another mod I have on might be overriding it. I will get a fresh install and try to rule out other mods. Thank you for the help!

 

Also, this may be a dumb question, but would difficulty change any of the interactions with this mod?

Well I got around to some testing, but when I downloaded and looked at MCM all the settings were disabled or set to 0. Clicking reset restored everything and now it all works! Maybe I missed a step in installation, but not sure how that happened. Pretty sure everything is working normally now. Sorry for the wild goose chase, but thank you nonetheless for the help! I don't think I've met a mod creator who is as attentive as you are, it is much appreciated.

Technically no.
