I've asked two different modders to see if anyone is encouraged to fix this mod, or make their version with the fix, each class should keep its bonus, the error that the bonus is kept when changing class gives some advantages hard enough that it is not a good idea to use this mod, and it seems essential to me the truth, it's a pity that no one has been encouraged to fix it 😅
Bumping up the post, for anyone interested, I decided to stand up to the task and you can find the fixed/improved Commander's Choice for EW/LW in my MiniMods collection. You can all thank davoker for harassing me enough ;)
Finally I found why the game crashes in the barracks when pushing "next\previous solider" button. It's after installing this mod!!! (I had to separately install each of my 25+ mods and load the game save to verify which one caused this) Either version of the mod causes this for me (I'm playing Long War 15f3)
Edit: I just realized that "Commander's choice" option doesn't require this mod to exist and it seems to work without it. Possibly a variation of this mod is integrated in LW 15f3 (maybe earlier version too)
Take note: when you come back from a mission, don't give anyone a promotion. This mod only works in the barracks. Just click "continue", then go to the barracks and promote everyone from there.
Just tried this mod and it doesn't seem to be working. I've installed a bunch of other mods via UPK Patcher and I'm pointing to the XEW directory. But, when I complete the first mission of a new game, the classes are already assigned and I don't see any buttons to change the assigned class.
Never mind. I figured it out, but I'll leave question here if anybody else has the same "issue". When coming back from a mission, if you click on the After Action Report screen, the buttons don't show up to change the class of the soldier. If you don't select a class and then go in through the Barracks and View Soldiers option, then the arrows show up to allow you to select the class you want.
Hey, no idea if you still work on this, but I got a fun bug. I retrained a heavy into an assault, but he still carried around a rocket launcher. It was fine in missions, as the ability just said that the soldier doesn't have the training to fire it. However, going to the loadout for the soldier crashes the game. Update: relaunched the game, going to the loadout a second time did not crash, interesting. However, I can't get rid of the Rocket launcher. Oh well, it's not like it alters the game mechanically (the soldier also still carries a pistol)

Thanks for a useful mod.
