XPiratez / Re: A thread for little questions
« on: February 20, 2021, 02:45:25 am »
How do I get the Conqueror (the 36 men transport for the last mission to Mars)? I got the codes and Zubrin. But no further research appeared.

XPiratez / Re: A thread for little questions
« on: February 09, 2021, 01:45:57 am »
Recently I lost 250 million to ninjas, also I got 2 demonic invasions (named in all caps -999mil cost thing) im my storage. So I wonder: can I still lose the game at the very end of my current campaign run?
To be more precise: how much do ninjas able to steal and what do invasions do?

Do I need space missions to finish the game?
I wonder because they are slow on my device and I want to skip them completely(versions of like a year ago, when I started to play the thing).

XPiratez / [Spoilers] Can I win without catching Star Gods Coordinator? [Spoilers]
« on: January 09, 2021, 08:29:10 pm »
It looks like the only thing I need to get access to the final mission is to catch this guy. I already got all the other codes and I guess I got all of the possible vessels. I don't see an opportunity to capture the coordinator.
I wonder if 1 billion thing at the bottom of the purchase screen will do?

XPiratez / How to stealth?
« on: November 15, 2020, 12:19:36 am »
After reading some stuff related to this and other mods I wonder if it is possible to sneak around instead of just kill everything.

Help / Are there examples of more than two arms armor?

I saw "one-handed" armors, I wonder if more than two are possible.

Help / Any good but fast-paced mods out there?(Feedback about pacing+request)
« on: November 15, 2020, 12:10:01 am »
So, recently I enjoyed a great mod from Dioxine which called XPiratez. But I am playing it for few months now. I am playing it at home, I am playing it on mobile, I am playing it on the road and when at rest. I Really want it to end some day at this point. Not because its bad, but because its like War And Peace. I guess it will take too much time to get familiar with other mods. So, I wonder if there are mods which significantly shorter than others. Also, are there any mods which make other mods science progress and tech costs lower?
Also: How do you people feel about pacing in mods? Are there a lot of people who are actually enjoying long mods? Is there anybody interested in a shorter span mods?

XPiratez / How to kill a blue-shielded hovertank?
« on: November 04, 2020, 04:25:28 pm »
I just faced a blue hovertank which ate 12 mortar shells, 4 rpg shells, and 6 grenades in a row and something like 10 plasma pistol rounds. I guess I screwed. Help.
Also: is there any good universal weapon/type against anything?

Sorry for this necroposting. But I wonder if it is smart thing to use chemicals against heavy armor. I am mostly thinking about the machine pistol which does 8 shots with x5 rounds using chemicals. Will such eventually melt a tank?
Also, what is the name of armor damage stat in the ANAL section? Does it have a different name for chemicals?

Do chemical bullet always apply their damage against armor? Or do they have to make it through first?

XPiratez / Few questions about damage to armor and armor evasion.
« on: October 25, 2020, 07:26:01 pm »
Sorry, there are lot of questions, but I will be happy about any answers. In general I just want to know what is the best anti-armor weapon and if there is the way to reduce armored enemy to zero with any sort of early game weapons.
1 So, what is the most effective way to damage armor?
2 What is the difference between chemical damage and armor piercing damage to armor?
3 Do lasers ignore armor?
4 Do fire ignore armor?
5 Are lasers, fire and the freeze gun for space capsules all the same thing with basically the same mechanic?
6 Do all armor piercing bullets damage armor?
7 Are there any real difference between machine guns and submachine guns/rifles?
8 Any general tips for handling heavy armored hostiles in general?
Thank you in advance for answers.

Help / Re: I need help with getting started. Probably I'm looking for a particular mod.
« on: October 25, 2020, 07:05:29 pm »
Thank you for the response.
1. I'm quite sure that I saw a giant robot mod mention somewhere. Now I wonder if it was for the 2012 line of games. I can't find it there either.
2. Thank you for the info about the game assets. I guess I'll try to do something next week.

So, hello OpenXcom forums, I'm new here and I am up to searching for some way to start making mods.
After playing for a few months in XPiratez I realised that XCOM of 1993 has some excelent capabilities of making such stuff. So, I want to make a mod about giant robots, but I believe I saw somebody posting about making such mod somewhere here, or at .io site. So, the questions I want to ask:
1. Is it still in progress, so I can join and help?
2. This one I probably has to search around, and I didn't yer, but I want to ask for any tips for a modder to start with, like what soft I need to make the mod.
Thank You.

Here I am, looking in disbelief at my Norlok girl surviving Cryssalid assault without an armor.
