Troubleshooting / Android problems

« on: November 20, 2015, 03:41:16 am »

Sorry if this isn't the right place to post this but I'm having trouble getting the Android version of Openxcom to work.  Everything works fine on my laptop but I can't get the game to load at all on my tablet.  I posted in the Android forum over a week ago and I haven't gotten a response.

What basically happens is that the game always asks me to copy my original X-com files, which I've done,  and then I reboot and get the same prompt.  The game seems to recognize the files fine.  I've tried everything I can think of and would appreciate some advice. Thank you in advance.

Builds & Ports / Re: OpenXcom for Android - new official thread

Hello, I installed OpenXcom for pc and everything works great!  I'm pretty good at following instructions but I seem to be having some trouble getting this to work on my tablet.

The issue that I'm getting is that every time the game loads it asks me where my data is.  I point it in the right direction and it asks me to save and restart.  It then goes back to the dos looking screen and keeps asking me to save and restart.  The status shows green lettering that says "Version 1.4+ (Collector's Edition)."  It continues to loop like this and won't ever load the game.

I tried the install on my phone to see if it was a device specific issue but the exact same thing occurs.  I have a rooted Samsung S3 tablet 7" and an HTC One M9 that is stock.  I figured that I must have an issue with my data files or I'm pointing the installation in the wrong direction somehow.  I have tried different nightly builds and have used my original X-com data and my OpenXcom data. 

If someone could help me figure out where I went wrong I'd be grateful.  My only concern is that if I can play X-com on the go I may never get any work done again!
