Title: TFTD
Post by: MK123 on June 18, 2014, 10:02:04 am: Hello all, first I have to say that I am big XCOM fan, I have played almost all XCOM games, however the first one and only I have ever played and will have place in my heart is TFTD. I have searched this forum for any mentions of TFTD port but I have not found any. Can you please notify me how it looks in this area? Thanks a lot.

Post by: darkestaxe on June 21, 2014, 08:49:29 am: I was able to make it run sorta back in .9 just by renaming TFTD files to UFO equivalents. How far away could it be?

The problems I ran into were mostly XCOM1 specific references in the ruleset and they already got a TFTD ruleset in the freezer somewhere. As I discussed in a previous post pretty much all the core TFTD specific functionality is already in Openxcom, and it's not like you can't have TFTD minus a couple things that aren't implemented yet.

Then again I'm not doing any coding so don't take my word for it. I don't actually know what I'm talking about, I just think I do.
