What is the advantage of trying to compress a very small 2MB file?

Troubleshooting / Re: How to Install modes on X-com Files 1.2 (Solution included)

I agree 1000% with Meridian and Solarius!
The method you describe is far-fetched. If you want to add Mods there is a way that is 1000 times easier and more reliable... depending on the mods you want to add.
Thanks to this XFiles update I have removed some mods that I thought were useful... but which are actually useless or even dangerous!
Thanks Solarius for your pack !

Why on Earth would I want to allow to wreck the entire balance? Do you think these values and formulas are random button mashing?

I agree!
I'm already having enough problems with your data so I'm not going to create more by modifying the firepower...

TFTD damage model works fine, it makes battles lesser chaotic... Too sad it is unavailable now.

If you can't live without this mod... have you tried it by modifying his "master:" line in his metadata?

Just to say that the new version has another save location
I have moved my saves to the new directory. Will I encounter problems ?

Work fine for me !

Secondly, if you want to continue a campaign from a previous version, you need to find your xcom1 folder (the one where saves, screenshots and configs are) and rename it to x-com-files.
(On the first launch after this conversion, the game will warn you that there some mods are missing; you can safely ignore this.)

OXCE Builds & Ports / Re: [Question] Is anyone still using a 32bit Windows version?

« on: February 03, 2020, 12:02:41 pm »

I have a computer with Win XP 32b.
Why do I have it?
Because it has many programs (software, games, utilities, ...) that only work in 32 bits !

The move to master mod was because I couldn't find a clear way to prevent people from misusing xcom1 mods with XCF, which isn't compatible with them. So now a submod must be either defined to work with XCF (and not xcom1) or defined to work with any master mod (xcom1, xcom2, XCF, Piratez, etc.)

Sorry, but are you also talking about extensions like these that are embedded in the "standard" folder :
- Aliens_Pick_Up_Weapons
- UFOextender_Psionic_Line_Of_Fire
- ...

They won't work anymore either?

Yes, but there are some damage modifiers that are better...

XcomFiles requires OpenXcom Extended !

But I found a thread somewhere here on the forum the OXC and OXCE are fusioned.

You're confusing OXC and OXCE!

1. OG = original game, i.e. X-COM: UFO Defense / X-COM: Terror from the Deep (by Microprose)
2. OXC = OpenXcom (nightly by SupSuper & Warboy)
3. OXCE = OpenXcom Extended (by Yankes)
4. OXCE+ = OpenXcom Extended+ (by Meridian)

(OXCE) + (OXCE+) = OXCE

All right!
For the old version the bug was particular !
In a mission I had:
- an active robot using a "vehicle" seat on board
- an inactive robot carried by a soldier

In any case, the turn ended well, but...
If the soldier activated his robot, everything went well during the mission but at the end of the mission... CTD!
I'll test with the latest version...
