This is the save file having just bought an orni, bug has replicated multiple times for me


Are you using the newest Openxcom Extended (OXCE) executable for playing?

https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,5258.0.html

The mod may throw errors, if you use the normal OXC executable.

EDIT: I repaired the save file (attached). Playing with the newest Openxcom Extended (OXCE) executable should work just fine then.

tried buying a second orni, game started sending me "phantom buys" with no contents and duplicating the orni. Selling these phantoms crashed the game


I cannot reproduce this error.

Can you upload a save file?

Sadly i reached a reproducable crash on this mod ending the stream
End the turn, and the game will crash

I uploaded a fixed version of the mod to the 1st post. Install it, and then load your posted sav and just end the turn.

I also saw there is a problem with the Devastator recovery, but I could not find a way to fix it yet.

edit: devastator recovery is also fixed in the newest version.

Hitsound on harpoon gun is exactly as intended. Not supposed to be blank, lol.

According to the Wiki, sound 1 is differently defined for different game versions. So players with game files 1.2 will experience an "empty" sound, players with game files 1.4 the "garbage" sound.

sounds from SAMPLE2.CAT    https://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php/SOUND

Code: [Select]
ref# offset length         Description
00 B8 01            02 2B         Snakeman slither
01 BD 2C            63 01  not used (empty in 1.2, garbage in 1.4)

GOG version uses identical sound effects as Steam version.

Also, there is no gun called "dart rifle"... did you mean "harpoon gun"?
Not sure how you define "annoying cracking" sound (maybe you can record it? so that we know what you mean), but for me it's not annoying with any combination of Steam/GOG 1.4/1.0 sound effects.

Yes I meant harpoon rifle. (But all weapons with hitSound: 1 have the same issue)

I assumed the issue was that "hitSound: 1" is filled with "garbage" for 1.4 as is written here: https://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php/SOUND

I do not know how to record the "annoying cracking". It is very easily audible.
Maybe it is only specific to my computer or OS.

When I changed the "hitSound: 1" to another blank sound "hitSound: 999" in the piratez mod, the "cracking" was clearly gone.
So this is the fix for me.

Some weapons like dart rifle and whip use "hitSound: 1".

Depending on your original files (e.g. files from GOG version) this might lead to some annoying cracking sound when using.

If you want to get rid of it you may change the ruleset "hitSound: 1" to "hitSound: 999" for these weapons.

Here are the tilesets from Crusader - no regret and Crusader - no remorse. They might be useful for new terrain or robot units.

Attack dogs can be bought without having a burrow/beast den.

It works only if you have no facility which gives you the cooresponding prison space.

How hard is it to convert doom sprite into OXCE one? We are still missing mancubus, arachnotron, revenant and lost soul. (the bosses are too large, archvile and pain elemental have powers unsupported by OXCE)

It is not very hard to do the conversion. Lost Soul is for example attached.

However, to get a nice result you need some time for manually fixing the sprites after conversion.

Resources / DOOM 2 Lost Soul Spritesheet
« on: February 21, 2019, 10:34:34 pm »
I tried to convert the DOOM 2 Lost Soul spritesheet to openxcom format.

The result is attached.

The zip file contains also the Lost Soul sounds from DOOM 2.

No shure if intended:

"Academy Comms tower" seems to spawn sometimes "distress Call" enemies. Also there is no "tower" on the map.

Guild Comms tower works as intended.

Just brainstorming for a possible backstory for this conversion. It could have a strong 'Dungeon Keeper' component. This means you could have a warband to collect resources from nearby towns to build up your 'Dungeon' and main battles were then base defense missions.
It would put more emphasis on base design, which is for most mods not really important.

OXCE Suggestions DONE / Re: Time to clean up user options
« on: February 06, 2019, 10:13:02 am »
I think it is a very good idea to declutter the options menu and I agree with nearly all suggestions in the first post.

However I think the "wounded fight during base attack" should not be removed but be an option in the mod-file.


By the way:
the "instant grenades" option is also somehow obsolete and could be removed, because this behavior can be defined in the mod-file for each item (in OpenXcom Extended).

Edit: I think the auto-sell manager can also go.
