I think I may have found your first incompatibility?

I downloaded the mod [WOTC] XpanD's Console Commands (linked below) and tried to run the game from AML, but I got a "appDebugMessagef" notification with the message: "Error detected attempting load of package: WotC_Misc_CharPoolToJSONUtil". After that, the game gets stuck and won't start unless I uncheck your mod.

When I do uncheck your mod, the game runs like normal, except your console commands don't work. However the console commands from XpanD's mod stick around, whether XpanD's mod is checked or not.

Do you know of a solution to this or what may be causing this? I plan to post this to XpanD's mod page as well

Awesome, had noticed crashes in loading missions post removing UC and using Iridar's appearance manager, was manually changing cosmetics that seemed to be fixing some of the problems.

One item: 'broken' faction heroes are always showing in the fixedcharpool even after running the fix, removing the old, and importing the new. Not sure if it's a false positive with another mod?

Thank you for the suggestion. I kind of gave up on the save now, though.

Try using a simple "load from pool" mod on them.. after this has fixed the characters in the pool

Is there any way to fix units present in a save and not in the character pool?

@ Nachjager: in AML settings, active arguments, "-allowConsole". then in the game the "~" key opens the console

Sorry guys i dont know how active console command, how i do that, im using the alternative launcher,

No. well, not in how most people think

What this will do is replace parts on the soldier that can no longer be validated as existing with 'default' parts (base game cosmetics that should always exist)

This means that the soldier doesn't become a broken mess when you try to customise them post-UCR-removal.

This means you can preserve the name, some cosmetics, the backstory, the country, the weapon tints, etc. -- AND -- more importantly it saves you from having to completely recreate everything from scratch, the most you will need to do is choose valid cosmetic options again.

I've a question in case I want to remove [WOTC] Unrestricted Customization Redux and install [WOTC] Iridar's Appearance Manager, will this mod preserve my customization that I already have in my soldier with UCR

OMG fantastic if this works as described, got a 1000+ char pool to see if it can fix

Any pools/units created whilst UC/UCR is installed will suffer from the issue post removal of UC/UCR - and need fixing by this mod

Well, this looks like it will be a very handy tool indeed! Awesome work putting this together. I do have a question... Say you have a backup of your character pool when you remove UC or UCR. Will your backup pools also be broken?

Bravo!

Amazing work!
Thankyou for figuring this all out .. I am certain it will help so many people that want to move away from UC or UCR, but don't want to have to completely rebuild their character pool.
