Question, is the modding site registration working? Seems to be taking its sweet time sending that e-mail. I wanna start reviewing mods already. nothing in main or junk. also checked the e-mail I entered, it’s all good.
So, I can get this to work with a mac if I buy the windows xcom version on steam?

Yes, though Steam only lets you download the original X-COM from a Windows device, so you probably need to use either BootCamp or Wine or etc. to get it.

If your steam client won’t download the files then you can copy them from a friends computer or just take the necessary files from alternative distribution methods.

There’s nothing wrong in using pirated game version if you legally own the game. The one who violates the law is the distributor of illegal copy.

Bought the game from steam on a friends pc, put it on a memory stick together with openxcom and just transferred the files to my mac. Works great. You fixed all the oddities that annoyed me in the vanilla version. A great game made even better. Thanks!
So far so good!
nearly nearly there 🙂

They should work. If you have issues with the modsite, report them here: https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php?topic=1835.0
Check the spam folder it may have gone in there.
