Title: OpenXcom Terror from the Deep --- How far along is it?
Post by: IMBACORE on September 14, 2016, 05:54:43 pm
OpenXcom is awesome so I'm quite curious how far along is it? Could I play it from start to finish without running into a brick wall or should I wait a year or so? (No poblem w the latter; I understand mods take a long time to make.)

Also, do I need to install TftD from Steam first?

Terror From the Deep is fully supported by OpenXcom in the Nightly Versions.

You will need to install from steam to have the original files to copy into your /tftd folder

Thanks! So for all intents and purposes the TftD branch is complete with no game-breaking bugs?

Yes, it has been done for over a year and works better than the original ( no research tree gotchas etc)

Thank you again! This is awesome news!

A question though: Why hasn't the OpenXcom About page's content been changed to reflect this fact? It would draw in more users if the devs mentioned that TftDeep is fully supported.

Hmmm, where does openXcom save files for TFTD are located? There is no folder in documents called openXcom so i'm confused.
