    Can you get the Balck Widow and The Bounty Hunter (with their hidden perks) added as your pilots like this?

    Post-1.9, BT no longer recognizes the mod and this breaks any saves that include it. I have done clean, fresh installations of both the game and the mod and no progress. Any troubleshooting tips? Thanks!

      Did you switch from using ModTek to the built-in ModLoader? I'm not sure if they would recognize the mod the same way or not. I've been using ModTek all along, and have no issues with this mod post-1.9.

      I hate to say it, you may need to use the savegame editor to remove it so that you can load your save. https://www.nexusmods.com/battletech/mods/408

      I know it's a bit dated, but confirming, yes still works as advertised.  Great mod! (6/9/21)

    When are you meant to select your starting pilots? And is this for career or campaign mode?

    I started the career multiple times but never got a screen where I could pick pilots... Am I missing something here?

      The instructions tell you to change the config file. Re-read the directions to find the .json file to change.

    How do you add new custom pilots using this mod?

      You can't add new pilots with this mod. All it does is allow you to start with the pilots you want, but they must already exist in the database.

      I know it wasn't your original intention but I created a mod for myself to add 4 new pilots then I used your mod to set them to start the game and it worked without issue.

    Have you made this file all by yourself?

    *edit*

    We took a look over it, this indeed seems to be new code, so the worries among some of us that it got ripped wasnt founded

    Well done :)

      RogueTech and BTA use a very similar mod, thats why both teams just went at it and compared the code

      Our allows both to randomize and directly chose starting pilots

      Stolen and uncredited dll's and assets has been a big issue since the beginning

      But if you want to look at the code to learn and maybe improve yours i got a semi greenlight to point you at our dll and mod.json

      Cool, thanks! I don't know that I'll do any more with this mod, but I'm always looking to learn.
