Thank You! This is super helpful, though fightsyle soldier seems to be missing on the imperial.

I'm in the works with making updates on him. He'll be given a few new moves and should be finished soon.

My Imperial soldier has been updated. Since I'd rather prefer not to have multiple entries of updates on him, the clicking the huge image below will direct you to my original post (now updated) about him.




New York North Side



Finally being able to give my Revolt Soldier some powers he deserved (A basic gun firing skill and grenade skill), it made it easier to set them up for his NPC counterpart. Imperial Soldiers will now appear patrolling the streets of New York's North Side, also where you face DeadPool. They are ready to engage in an assault at your heroes with their MP5 and hand grenades.
It will be just like battling GRSO Soldiers again!


Map Information: Some additional minor changes were made besides having Imperial Soldiers added to the map.
- Imperial Soldiers take over Master Sniper's positions. (data replaces over Master Snipers)
- Master Snipers take over Optic Crawler's positions. (data replaces over Optic Crawlers)
- Optic Crawlers no longer appear in this map.

Enemy Data:

Level: 38
Basic appearance: Imperial Soldier
Mutated leader name: Elite Infantry
Power 1: Rapid Fire
Power 2: Throws a Frag Grenade. Takes a little longer to explode than the playable counterpart's (Revolt Soldier's)
Basic Attacks: Uses Fightstyle Rifle in his powerset.
- Whacks enemies with the back of his gun and breach kicks.

Beast - By Cohollow



Updated as of 10/3/2020

This is a port of Cohollow's Beast mod from the PC version with his necessary files, packaged into an .fb for him to be fully playable for Game Cube purposes. This post mainly contains previews on his skinset and other miscellaneous for him to work for the game. Selection of Beast's skins may differ from his PC mod, but his play style remains the same.

For more information about his powers and other things, be sure to check out the original mod on Cohollow's thread about Beast.

This character requires the X-Men Legends II - Version 2.0 Patch to be installed to avoid any missing texture effects for his powers.






Costumes:

Notes:

Spoiler


- Has power icons and character selection portrait included in his pack
- Does not have custom voices, therefore, will take the form as a Hologram Hero.
- Uses his default XML 1 sound effects for most of his powers (his ps_powerstyle has his sound directories modified so they can read them off his XML 1 file appropriately)
- Lacks the additional sounds for powers that were modded in his PC version's.






Future Updates:

Spoiler


- Inclusion of proper custom voice set and additional sound effects when it becomes possible to modify them.

Made another update on his character with some more balancing and fixes. For the entire information, the clicking on image above will direct you to his earlier post, now updated once again.



XML 2 BGM Replacement Pack


Today's release is a small pack containing BGMs replaced in X-Men Legends 2 with those from X-Men Legends 1. Just simply download, place them into their proper locations and rebuild your iso. Note: If you wish to apply all of these songs into the game, download the X-Men Legends II: Version 2.0 which contains a ton of file arrangements that will allow you to install these custom music into the game.

Songs that were replaced:

Act 1:
-------
Dead Zone Sections A & B ---> HAARP Exterior
Abyss Battle ---> HAARP Exterior

Act 3:
-------
Core Section A ---> HAARP Interior
Core Section B ---> U.S.S. Arbiter Interior (Engine Room)
Infinite Section A & B ---> Nuclear Power Plant

Act 4:

Perimeter Section B ---> U.S.S. Arbiter Interior (Flooded)
Sewers ---> Sewers (Gambit Rescue)

New York Ruins Sections A & B ---> Mount

Sounds aren't located in the assetsfb, but rather in the ISO's structure. If you don't have your ISO's structure extracted, please refer to this guide below on how to export your game's root, then you'll be able to replace the said file in the directory, before rebuilding your ISO.


Combat Agent


The elite soldier in his exoskeleton suit is ready to aid his fellow soldier buddy, and mutant allies against Apocalypse. This NPC is meant to be the playable counterpart of the GRSO Black Guard and Sinister Agent enemies from both X-Men games respectively. Most of his abilities reference his enemy counterpart's in some sort of manner, as well as being given a few unique moves and features to increase his potential to the team. He comes with a full set of powers: 7 offensive, 2 secondary (1 Buff and 1 Debuff), and 2 Xtremes, and has a total of 5 skins referencing the respective enemies

This character requires the X-Men Legends II - Version 2.0 Patch to be installed to avoid any missing texture effects for his powers.

What's Left To Do:
- Buffs and fixes if any occur. Other than that, set new animations when it becomes possible to customize animation sets for XML 2.

Notes:
- Feel free to make custom skins for this hero. I won't take any credit for your creativity but would enjoy playing as other member's custom skins for him!
- This hero is free to use as a base if you plan to make your own mod using his assets to start off from. Just make sure you don't keep too much of his default assets and make his play style is as different as possible. Also be sure to credit me if you plan on using him.







This is great! It's a shame to see that the devs really mailed it in on the advanced sentinel model though; they didn't even fix that the chin is weighted to the chest. It's a really great mod though! Will it come to PC?

Yeah, it's pretty unfortunate for the sentinel advanced. I also tried using his PS2 skin for slight better quality. Works fine in the character menu and base camps, but crashes when entering the combat zones. He may be bonus skin for now, but the actual npc might be my next NPC hero when I can think of a moveset for his small animation kit.

And for Combat Elite:

He definitely will in future updates! A goal of mine is to carry my heroes over to the PC's roster.

It's been a while since I updated. Time to release some things I previously finished and keep myself active on here.


Acolytes:

Betraying Magneto and the Brotherhood, some members of his Acolytes have chosen to side with Apocalypse to follow his steps with having only the strong to survive. They replace over the the enemies that previously appeared in the specific sections of the factory, and operate the same as they do in X-Men Legends 1. You'll encounter most of them in the Fusion Core. Be careful not to rush into them all at once. As a group, these guys are a force to be reckoned with.
