The X-Com Files / No progress anymore. Do missed research?
« on: December 10, 2024, 09:24:55 pm »
There is no progress in the game anymore. More money than I need. Excellent skilled soldiers.
I was in the other dimension.
I do have the Avenger.
I do have ghost missions.
No things to do research about.
What else do I need? Maybe I miss something that I should collect? Or do I use to much explosive stuff and destroy the important things to collect?

I recommend you update the mod's files from the github repo so it doesn't happen again.

I am using OpenXcom Extended 7.12, XFiles 3.3 on Debian 12 for a long time.
This is the first time that it crashes with any error. I am on the geoscape and the whole application vanish. No error, no window, just like it was closed.
I can reproduce it.
Might it help if I upload the save game? Here or somewhere else?

OpenXcom Extended (OXCE) / Re: OXCE (OpenXcom Extended) main thread
« on: May 24, 2024, 01:22:02 pm »
I migrated from Debian 11 to 12 via a fresh install.
Now when I start OpenXcomEx I got a black tiny window with the title "OpenXcom Extended 7.1.2 (v2024-02-24).
I would say everything is installed and configured as in the previouse system. I just copied the ~/.config/openxcom from the old to the new system. I installed the libsdl components.
Never saw such a window. Starting this in terminal doesn't give much usable output. The window closes itself after pressing any keyboard key. The output is just
$ ./OpenXcomEx
INFO: WARNING: this app used SDL_KillThread(), an unforgivable curse.
This program should be fixed. No thread was actually harmed.
For testing purpose I removed the ~/.config/openxcom folder. The behavior does not changed. So I assume the config itself is not the reason.

The X-Com Files / Re: Best way to deal with Ship Turrets on Terror missions
« on: March 22, 2024, 08:42:54 pm »
I am also struggeling with the turret things on top of the terror ship.
I used the debug mode doing research about them. It seems they are recoverable? They have 20 health points but recover from every damage I tried damage (emp, laser, explosives).

Thanks a lot for your help. I just want to play and do not become to scientific about weapons. I still have pen and paper with notes about weapon skill values etc. I don't want to get further.
I will check out the weapons you mentioned.
It seems that I am currently not able to buy a BlackOps Smartgun. Some dependencies might be missing, e.g. Advanced Robotics Prerequisite.
About the other guns I found out that their names are translated. I am not sure if this is for purpose or if I can open a bug report about that?
The original name is also not present in the debug output. There is only the macro name (e.g. BLACKOPS_CAWS). I needed to change the UI language.

Thanks a lot for your thougts. Not sure if there are witches or ninjas. I see black lotus soldiers in white and blue dresses.
About the weapons. This is often an overwhelming topic for me. I try to compare the values of the weapons but at the end it is to much for me. To much weapons. To much to compare. I also know the Ufopedia wiki which is easier to navigate then the in-game ufopedia.
What is SMG? There are a lot of weapons with SMG in their name.
What values do count?
What I currently use is
- UAC Rifle
- BlackOps Rifle
- Sometimes alien lasers if I have collected them.
- and a lot of TNT
Everything else seems to be to heavy or have disadvantages in the values (TU costs, range).

The X-Com Files / Need tips for Golden Academy Tower
« on: December 29, 2023, 08:53:47 pm »
Puh. I discovered my first Golden Academy Tower. It is damn hard. All my units can fly. I have UAC rifles and some alien laser weapons and a lot of TNT.
It is to hard.
What is the goal here? Do I have to kill all enemies? Or can I steal something and then run away?
Any tips?

I do have one but don't understand the value of a "Position Marker". What can I do with it on the field? What is my tactical advantage?

Or should I totaly restart for a better experience?

The X-Com Files / Outrunner Laser but without ammo
« on: March 19, 2023, 02:16:32 pm »
I have an outrunner laser. But the ammo is still 0.
I don't see how to craft laser ammo? It does not appear in the list.
