XPiratez / Re: A thread for little questions

« on: August 12, 2022, 07:15:17 pm »

I do have UFO and Terror from the deep installed correctly.
Able to run the base games as well as mods like Xcom files, X Chronicles, Reaver Harmony, and The World of (Terrifying) Silence.

I am able to get to the screen in mods to choose Piratez (Image attached)
(This is taken from my most recent attempt and I was messing with X Chronicles, I have also done this on a clean install of OXCE 7.6 and the same occurs)

Then it takes me to screen 2 and then screen 3, I would click save and restart and the app would close.. The issue is that whenever I launch OXCE it keeps launching me into screen 2 and then screen 3 then restarting the app without getting me to the start screen of the game.

I was able to move the mod files from Piratez user/mods into OXCE PC and was able to get Piratez to work on PC. The problem is getting it to work on Android. I thought maybe the issue is the version of OXCE so I have tried it with the OXCE Feb-07 build in the older versions link https://openxcom.org/oxce/release/ and the error seems to be the same. Is there someone that has gotten Piratez to work on android and is able to tell me what version of OXCE they are running or maybe give me a hint of what I can do to get it to run?
Running OXCE 7.6, Piratez N1.1, Android 11 on Oneplus 6T.
My next attempt is to try an older version of Piratez and an older version of OXCE for android but without a reference to what works there seems to be many possible combinations and each attempted install takes 30 ish minutes with unzipping files on android.

It seems that other mods are fine and it is only Piratez that I'm struggling with.

I have been trying to get XPiratez to work on android for a few weeks now and I just can't seem to do it.
Downloaded the OXCE android current build (v2022-07-15), downloaded n1.1 and moved mods folder over into the android openxcom mods folder but now luck. Downloaded (v2022-02-07) which I read "OXCE Upgrade to 7.5.3 7-Feb-2022" in the patch notes for v.M5 24-Mar-2022 The Five Captains. and I was able to select xPiratez in the mods dropdown but then when starting the game I sent to the initial setup screen where I would choose where ufo defense files and tftd files are and then I would click save&restart but it wouldn't launch the game and keep me on the that initial setup screen.
Tried clicking on all the boxes to save stuff to cache and I have gotten the the following error screen.
OpenXcom Extended Error VFS::map_common(): failed to map 'common'

I have gotten xcom files and other mods to work and I really enjoy it on Android, and I have played a little bit of XPiratez on PC but can't seem to get it to work on Android. Any help is appreciated. Running Android version 11, on Oneplus 6T. The reason I don't play on PC more is that I have to travel and only have my phone with me for stretches of time.

I am posting this here as well as on the other main thread. If I am posting in the incorrect place please let me know
