Addons to allow greater customisation of game difficulty and special features
Aliens : Colonial Marines
Overhaul Version 6
Developed by TemplarGFX
ADDON Usage :
Addons are split into pack files, only one addon from each pack file can be installed at once, however you can otherwise mix and match the addons
Only use these addon's with ACMO V6!
Installation :
Copy the UPK file from within the addon folder into your game installation as follows :
Aliens Colonial Marines\PecanGame\CookedPCConsole\
Replace the existing file with the add-on version
UI Addon is a little bit tricky and requires two steps :
Copy the INI file from the addon folder into your installation as follows :
Aliens Colonial Marines\PecanGame\Config\
Head to My Documents\My Games\Aliens Colonial Marines\PecanGame\Config\ and delete the PecanUI.INI file located there (this will be recreated with the new changes when you start the game)
Default ADDONs :
When the base version of ACMO is installed, these addons are included. Installing these again will revert your game to the Overhaul defaults
DEFGEN - 3 Overhaul Xenos
DERC26 - 2 Overhaul WY
DERC61 - 4 Super Rare Smartgun Spawns
GBFRAME - 1.49x Enhanced Spawn
PECANGAME - Default Unlocks - Overhaul Gun Position
UI - ORIGINAL (SEE README)
DEFGEN :
Adjusts the Xenomorph speed and base health stats to allow greater difficulty customization
DERC26 :
Adjusts the Weyland Yutani Mercanery Health stats to allow greater difficulty customization
DERC61 :
Adds the Smartgun into the ammo spawn pool so that it can spawn through the entire main campaign
GBFRAME :
Adjusts the base spawn count multiplier for all spawn points within the campaign missions. Both Xeno and WY
Any multiplier above 1.49x will cause certain enemies to spawn that are invulnerable and are recommended for replay value and not a full playthrough
PECANGAME :
All Unlocked allows full customisation and weapon selection in the campaign and bug hunt without needing to unlock them first
Default Unlocks is the intended progression unlock method and is recommended for most users.
ACMO lowers the hip fire position of all weapons in the game to make it more realistic, however if you prefer the original games weapon position you can revert it with this addon
UI Original & Retro :
The Original hud uses a holographic lense effect with heavy effects applied to it. For a cleaner look, these effects can be removed for a Retro VHS look.
Note that with Retro UI enabled there will be no visual damage feedback on screen
Can this be used on its own? Or is there a simple way to edit the games files to put the smartgun into the base games ammo pool? My main issues with the game (other than the horrendous story) were the lack of smartguns and the alien ai (which is fixed enough with the .ini tweaks).
Hi So is this addon needed to make the xeno/game more easier ? Or the difficulty is mostly to add extra .. make it harder ? thanks
I installed "PECANGAME - All Unlocked - Overhaul Gun Position" and "DERC61 - 1 Common Smartgun Spawns" and now the game crashes at certain points in each mission. All crashes were at a certain point and it's not random.
yeah this addon pack screwed with audio when my teamates are having banter its silent
Is pecangame.upk compatible with the file from the V6.2 patch? That is, can I overwrite the V6.2 patch file's pecangame with the file from this addon?
