Hello Nord, I'd like to submit some small fixes to Language/en-US.yml - what's the best way to do this, please?

You can try install Wine, I recall is available in mac too. then you can install steam in it and ask him to download Windows games.
Overall strange as Ufo and TFTD can't work on modern windows either, and need use DosBox and it should be available on every modern operating system.

Thank you Yankes, it looks like Wine version 9.13 was confirmed to run the Steam client on macOS 15 in August 2024[1], so fingers crossed, I can get this to work…

I see another no-cost option is the 14 day free trial of CodeWeavers CrossOver[2] (Wine with commercial support).

Absolute worst-case scenario I'm sure I can find a friend with Steam on Windows, log in to their Steam client and download the games…

Hi, I'd love to test/build/play OXCE on MacOS (Intel iMac) but I don't know how to convince Steam to download X-COM or TFTD so that I can copy out the game files. Does anyone have a suggestion?

I don't have a Windows system at home at present, and Steam on macOS just tells me I can't install the game. (Fair enough.)

I'd prefer not to have to buy the games again on GOG, but that would at least allow me to download the installers and hopefully extract the files OXCE needs…

Not asking for yo-ho-ho options.  :)

Oh lol... before, when I clicked on the first few I thought they were all gonna be .exe files or similar. That's why I was confused. Thank you again.

Yeah, you have to mouse over each of the files and look at the link that your browser (hopefully) shows down below or in a tooltip…

If the website is running on Apache 2.x (which I've assumed it is, because the directory listing has the sort links) the site admin can add "IndexOptions DescriptionWidth=*" for this directory so that the full filenames are shown by mod_autoindex.
