The "flight" sound of Raptors is quite long. So if you are fighting them one hardly can hear shooting/moving sounds of other units, because the Jetpack sound is still playing.

You can use the TFTD_Damage mod provoded with OXC. You just have to change one line in the metadata file.
Find the mod in the standard folder of your OXC installation, open the metadata.yml and change the master to "*". Then copy the mod folder to "my document/openXcom/mods" and you shoud be able to use it in the mod selection in the start menu when playing X Files

OXCE Suggestions DONE / [DONE][Suggestion] [QoL] Sortoption for Soldiers by Craft

« on: December 20, 2020, 06:26:20 am »

As i am about to start writing this i´m comming to the conclusion that it might not be possible because it is not a Soldier Stat that is trackable, but i´ll give it a shot anyway. If i am right with my assumption sorry for the bother.

With Mods using multiple crewed Interceptor/Carrier type vessels at one base it would be nice to have an option to sort your Cannonfodder in the appropriate menues by the Craft the occupy.

Regards and stay healthy

« on: December 05, 2020, 08:30:35 am »

I'm curious, which version of the commendations mod is in the latest FMP version?

It is not the newly updated version, but you just have to replace the commendation resources folder to update the ufopedia entry.
If you should be annoyed by some text of the commendations mod being to long to display i have edited the language file accordingly and will attach it here. Feel free to use it in any shape or form

Spoiler:

copy and paste the resources folder of the commendations mod to C:\Users\(username)\Documents\OpenXcom\mods\Final Mod Pack and overwrite the existing commendations folder. The language file goes to C:\Users\(username)\Documents\OpenXcom\mods\Final Mod Pack\Language

Hi Solarius
I was fooling around with the commendations/ribbons and came up with a Globetrotter Medal. I am no Pixelartist though. I also added the ribbon for Hand to Hand Kills for the Soldier Diary which was missing. Everybody can freely use my work and add them to their liking.
Regards Carfax

edited the Medal slightly by darkening the Globe replaced the file

Maybe this will be of use to you. I assume warhammer skaven names are probably not what you are looking for but the site is quite useful for random names of all kind.

Unfortunately, lights are only toggable for the entire squad, not individual units

What?  Wait a minute. I allways (played xcom since release every two or three years) though the squadlights were just there for player convenience/cosmetics and not actual beeing considered as light sources during night missions.
But if i understand you correctly in a scenario where two humans fight during the night the one with sqaudlights on would be spottet by the other one earlier because he is emitting light?
Please correct me if i´m wrong.
p.s. to bad the lights are only togable for the whole squad.

I recently started a new game and was positively surprised by the, at least for me, new dog ui with the third button for sniffing. As i continued on i had an idea regarding nightmissions. Don´t know
if something like this is even possible but i wanted to share it anyway. Is it possible to give vehicles or HWP the ability to toogle headlights or similar devices during night missions?

Hi
I am trying to include the soldiers diversity mod into the FMP mainly because i want the flags. As far a i could see it the Names were allready included, but how do i get these Flags displayed in the Soldiers pannel? Just activating the mod additonal to FMP doesn't work and including the rulesets and the other files with the mods of FMP doesn't work either. Any Ideas?
