I thought that such thread could be nice ;) For new members, who would like to say hello :)
Heh, not gonna lie, I'll probably be the last person to get on with original xcoms come the release of XCOM 2. I always liked XCOM, ever since my friend showed it to me. Funny too, because he showed me XCOM: UFO DEFENSE about 2 years ago and it blew my mind. I used to play UFO: TTS and it was pretty impressive. Unfortunately the game's forums (and the development) are 4 years dead, with nobody on the internet with a tutorial on it. Not to mention it was my first DDos game since playing XCOM: UFO DEFENSE, so multiplayer was a no-go. I'm probably the youngest one here too. I'm a freshman at highschool and I really look foward to XCOM like games, but not the newer ones as much. I always liked grid based movement game, and I'm not sure why. I must've put 100+ hours into pokemon blue when I was 11 so I guess that was my enlightenment.

So I guess that's all about me, but I could really use a hand. My username is Spycar1234 on everything, so if you see that name it's me (if you want to contact me in any other way). But so far, I have questions.

For starters, TTS has trouble extracting files from enemy unknown for some reason. It says it can't extract pallets from geodata, I think the missing textures from that game is the reason why some things appear as boxes or different colors.

Second, I have started playing openxcom (Something a lot more alive thank god) and I bet I'll sound like an asshat for saying this, but are there any texture packs or mods to up the graphics? I guess open might not be for me. The reason why I question this is because I saw a mod showcasing a vehicle or something but the guy had a sick visual mod that made everything smoothed out.

Please respond to this, I really need the beginning push to get me started. I'll check my e-mail everyday.
