TemplarGFX's ACM Overhaul V3 file

Afaik you don't need to delete the V2 files - they will all be overwritten with the new version but you could verify game files before you do the install 'just in case'. The game settings thing I think is to do with PecanEngine.ini being write-protected but don't quote me on that. The new version installer gives the option to remove readonly from this file.

That's pretty odd. It's been tested in Win7 and Win10. It doesn't end up crashing or offer 'details' on why its not working?

Have you tried running the installer as an administrator? Also, make sure you've extracted the zip before you run the installer.

you can choose in the installer slower soldier profile or copy it manually from the install folder. Playing with fast xenos requires a new strategy you cant let them get close to you, so you need to lure them back and give yourself more space, if you use AR. Running and gunning will get you killed 9 out or 10 times. Learn their movement patterns and levels so you can pick spots where they cant attack you directly or follow each other in a single line. SMG is the best option to fight them - high rate of fire and low recoil. Flamethrower is a good option to slow them down though refills are rare. Keep shotty for last resort it isnt too inconsistent.

I believe someone else reported the same issue in a different Comment yes...

The quicktime events are turned off. So don´t get to close on facehuggers or lurkers. ;-)

This is an issue with the base game, here's a fix!
Steamcommunity.com

Just set the ACM.exe start as admin.

Try using the installer that comes with v.3 - that fixed it for me at least.

I'm having exactly the same issue, tried reinstalling the mod it didn't fix it. Anyone else encountering this?

Yep, me too!
Tried V4 and it crashes after the door opens and some steps...

After I tried for two hours, I have found a solution. The Files in (..)My Games\Aliens Colonial Marines\PecanGame\Config are not write-protected after the installation, (somehow they will be overwritten after the game starts, I dont know). . so I set them up myself. Now the xenos no longer disappear after they died. (Sorry for my bad english, it's not my native language :) )

This didn't work for me. Anyone else having this issue?

Go into "/Documents/My Games/Aliens Colonial Marines/PecanGame/Config/" and delete all files in that folder. Launch the game and close it after it has finished loading. Re-install V3 of the mod and then launch the game again. See if that fixes it!

The V3 installer has (by default) backup settings set to 'full'. This should back up any file it attempts to replace in the relevant and most recent backup folder. You can find this in the game directory.

Just a few suggestions.

-In my experience with FPS games since the nineties, horizontal recoil is never considered a good thing if it goes in both directions. With weapons that you do not intend to be 'spray and pray,' standardize the recoil a bit.

-Is there any way you can fix the arms being visibly detached from the character when running max FOV? Max FOV is the way to play, but seeing your arms hovering there in space during certain animations takes the immersion right out of it.

-Alter the weapon upgrade text to reflect what they actually do. I'm sure you already planned to do this.

-Make reviving fellow players in the campaign take longer. This is a personal preference of mine, seems to take all the tension out of it when it's near-instant.

-Any way to fix the garbage sound cycling with the Pulse Rifle?

-Winters is an important character to the story. But is it possible to make co-op players use the models of their custom marines, rather than the stock ones that they're forced into?

-Some character dialogue still falls out of sync and ruins the feel of the game when it happens.

-Any way to fix the blowtorch you cut Keyes down with? When the game first came out, I remember it working fine. Now, though, it's either no flame or a very cheap looking cardboard cut-out of a blue flame.

These seem like little nitpicky things that could help the cinematic experience a bit (I like to play with no HUD). Hopefully simple stuff for you!

- remove red X 'hit indicator' from cross hairs.
- remove those floating names above AI marines
- remove the voice/radio icon when conversation is heard
- motion tracker dots back to blue (in bug hunt) like in movies!
- love movie pulse rifle; if bringing back the 'mk2' though, can we get its ammo counter to be a proper 95 as well? *IMO Mk2 never should have happened since the original was so iconic!

-iron sights a bit more visible (e.g. pistols and shotguns and some rifles). They are smaller than in the vanilla game and hard to aim through.
-Gun models reduced. They are taking too much of the screen and make difficult to see fast moving xenos when they are closing in.
-Melee isn't effective anymore with quick xenos which leads to many quick deaths if xeno gets too close. It needs to be balanced a bit with an ability to slow down approaching xeno as it takes ballistic damage. I.e. if you hit it with shotgun blast or start putting rounding into it from AR it should slow down or even freeze for a short period of time. Also they should not be chasing you when you set them on fire. It just isn't in line with the movie. Ripley would have been dead in first 30 mins of the movie if aliens were chasing her after she had set them on fire. ;)
