For those curious, this is what happens when you put X-Com: Terror from the Deep’s files onto the DATA folder (and get rid of some errors). Just a fun little experiment, funny how they pretty much fit on top of each other aside from some palette and sound issues. A hint at the future maybe. 😉
I also couldn’t resist trying this on the original games (copy X-Com 1 resources onto X-Com 2, or vice-versa). You’ll get a similar effect, but although the Geoscape works fine, the Battlescape will crash and the sounds cause various issues, probably because those were the bigger changes. Though I wonder with some hacking around if you could upgrade X-Com 1 to the X-Com 2 engine this way. 😛

Those depths are terrifying! 😀
