The only perk information I can pull from the save file is the string name of and integer Enum value. Long war changed a lot of perks around and the .upk files don't seem to reference this. As such I cannot map some perks reliably without taking that perk on a soldier and then parsing the save file. That's going to take a while since I would have to level up one class to MSGT 3 times to get all of the perks.

If you can submit the ePerk names that are returned for a soldier along with the in game names of Perks assigned that would help me greatly. You can also attach B14 LW saves with various soldiers.

Thanks.

Check the localisation folder out for the new terms specifically the XComGame.int in the INT folder, you can very easily see which perk is now what for example: m_strPassiveTitle[ePerk_Overdrive]="Fortiores Una" In the vanilla game that perk is actually a mec ability instead of a promotion perk so these are obviously the correct changes. Any old text editor will do.

You can cross reference it with http://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=Abilities_List_%28Long_War%29 PC modders have it easy, since I started using UE Explorer I've shaved months of work off.

Hope that helps.
