📋 About This Mod
SUPER IMPORTANT, THE PATCH BROKE THIS MOD, I AM NOT ACTIVELY DEVELOPING MODS FOR MGSV AND WILL NOT BE UPDATING THIS MOD.
IMPORTANT UPDATE (21/015): This mod will apparently have an effect on FOB missions, use with caution if you play online.
ADDED FILE VERSIONS FOR SOLDIERS RANKED S AND ABOVE
This Mod increases the rank of all most soldiers (This includes enemy soldiers) and I've also taken away the Troublemaker skills. These ranks will have no effect on FOB missions to my knowledge.
Note 1: I'm unsure as to why there are still a few low level soldiers, I will be looking into it. Note 2: This breaks the auto assign feature in staff management, you will have to manually spread out the staff as it seems to favor certain platforms over others.
I've also done similar to Snake S Plus Plus mod and increased certain skills of unique characters to S++ where it seems to make sense. (The super soldier files increases stats of unique characters to S++ in all categories)
Instructions (You only need the Data file or the Lua file, not both. If you dont know how to unpack your data1.dat game file just download the data file.)

- []extract the Data1.dat file using QARTool []extract the lua file from the rar in the newly created data1 directory (data1\Assets\tpp\motherbase\script) []recompile the data1.dat file. []You're done.
