About this mod

This modification changes loading screens, rank images, main menu screen and the uniforms of the agents to look like The 60-70s Gendarme of Saint-Tropez.

Permissions and credits
This modification requires Xenonauts Community Edition and Jsleezy's Real Fighter Portrait Pack XCE 

One way (and probably the best one) to install Xenonauts Community Edition is to switch to the Community branch in Steam by right-clicking on Xenonauts, selecting Properties, going to the Betas tab and selecting Community. After the installation process is complete Khall's More Portraits addon in X:CE should be deactivated in the launcher.

Make sure that in the launcher "Pataschka's Stargate Administrator" prioritized higher than Jsleezy's Real Fighter Portrait Pack XCE 

Version history:
1.0

This modification changes loading screens, rank images, main menu screen and the uniforms of the agents to look like The 60-70s Gendarme of Saint-Tropez.

At the main menu screen:
- The main menu screen was replaced with a UFO film frame.
- At the difficulty screen each uniform was repainted to look like Gendarme uniforms in following order: easy - Gendarme uniform, normal - Ludovic Cruchot's unifrom, hard - Adjudant Jerome Gerber's uniform, insane -  nun

At the base:
- The character of the scientist in the lab facility was changed to The Colonel
- The character of the drill instructor in the personnel tab was changed to Ludovic Cruchot (and for the upgraded personnel tab to Jerome Gerber)
- In the storage screen the character who sits there was changed to Gendarme Taupin
- The character of the engineer in the worshop was changed to Gendarme Beaupied
- All the soldier photos were edited to have the Gendarme's summer uniform (like in the films)
- In the roster screen the basic uniform was replaced with the Gendarme's summer uniform.
- Ranking images and names were changed to match Gendarme's ranks and insignias
- Funding image at the end of the month was edited to the "Gendarme's meeting" from "Gendarme in New York" film.
- Xenopedia image of basic armor wас altered to match the changes made by this mod.

New rank names are:
- Gendarme (sous contrat)
- Gendarme (de carriere)
- Marechal des logis-chef
- Adjudant
- Sous-lieutenant
- Lieutenant
- Capitaine
- Commandant



Ground combat:
- Icon on the loading screen was changed from alien to UFO logo.
- Hidden movement screen, Mission fail and mission victory screens were edited with photos from the Gendarme films.
- Basic armor was recoloured from blue to brown-yellow to match the image in the roster screen

The used source photos are not mine (I only cut, edited them and placed them into the game). Though they can be freely accessed from the internet by anyone, If you're the author or the model from one of these photos and for some reason you see the usage of the photo is inappropriate, please PM me and I'll remove them as soon as possible.

The purpose of this modification is to give the game the atmosphere from Le Gendarme Et Les Extra-Terrestres film to match the setting of the game. 

Installation Instructions:
1. Go to your Xenonauts assets folder (C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Xenonauts/assets/mods)
2. Unzip "Pataschka's Le Gendarme Et Les Extra-Terrestres" folder into the /mods folder
3. Launch Xenonauts.exe
4. In the opened "Xenonauts launcher" hit the "Modding Tools" button
5. Select "Pataschka's Le Gendarme Et Les Extra-Terrestres" string and hit "Activate" Button
6. Click "Back" button
Now you can launch the game
