Getting started
When you start AML for the first time (or extracted a copy to a new folder), you are presented with the welcome dialog.
You are required to select either XCOM 2 (WotC) or XCOM Chimera Squad, depending on which game you want to use this "copy" of AML for. This is currently a one time selection and can not be changed afterwards. If you want to use AML for both games, just use two copies of AML in different folders and select each game respectively.
Upgrading from v1.3.2 or earlier:
If you upgrade (overwrite) an AML version without Chimera Squad support (say v1.3.2) with AML v1.4, this copy will continue to target XCOM 2 and the Welcome Dialog will not be shown.
AML supports anonymous error reporting. It really helpes us to identify issues, so please consider enabling that feature.
As soon as the AML main windows shows up, AML will automatically start searching for new mods and also update/refresh information for all existing mods.
This process is essentially the same as manually selecting File -> Search for new mods
and then File -> Update mod information
from the main menu bar.
Hint: You can use "Tools->Import active mods" to enable all mods, that have been active since the last time XCOM was started (either from the default launcher or from another copy of AML).
The first thing you might want to check is the settings dialog.
