OXCE Support / Re: Bug: Some items on inv screen show a black box around them (Area 51 mod)

« on: May 04, 2017, 08:07:15 am »

I see. It doesn't do it when I remove the culprit, Area 51. I might ask Hobbes for help soon. I'd love to have OXC:E+ run smoothly with Area 51. I don't know all of the features/hotkeys it contains, but I know about Ctrl+Alt+X in the soldier equip screen. I love that one!

OXCE Support / [Solved] Some items on inv screen show a black box around them (Area 51)

« on: May 04, 2017, 04:01:14 am »

Here are the pictures. I'll keeping playing with this issue anyway. Only mods installed are the Firestorm Restyle, Quick Draw, and Area 51 (latest).

Tested it in different ways. With mods and without mods.

Edit:Damn it's Area 51 causing it. Anyone wanna help me with this one? Game runs fine other than that. Played for awhile, it's just that issue I have so far. Hopefully nothing else happens in my game.

You want to check out an OpenPandora if you can find a second hand one (they are no longer in production)... or wait for the Dragonbox Pyra (it's successor, which is currently in prototyping stage). They aren't cheap, because it's a small venture. There's an OXC port to the Pandora, and it plays great

Thanks for the info Pmprog. Did a quick search. Bummer nobody is selling'em. Not even Craigslist.

I didn't know I can donate to that author. Played Gekokujo endlessly. My favorite of all the Warband mods ever. I've never seen the GoT HBO show so I didn't enjoy CoK. That's been the top mod on Moddb for a long time.

Ah now I'm so tempted to cheat... After so long, has anyone else done it this? Any repercussions? I'll want to be able to revert back to vanilla without feel pains.

Suggestions / Option to run OXC on my second Monitor @ Fullscreen

« on: May 02, 2017, 10:21:55 am »

Hey everyone. I'm running a 24" 1080p G-Sync monitor as my primary and a nicer 27" 1440p monitor as my secondary. So I'd like an option to tell OpenXcom to run the game on fullscreen on my second monitor.

I can do the Projector option Windows+P, but I like watching stuff like Awesome Games Done Quick on the other monitor

So I supported this project. Now I feel bad that I gave them more than I ever gave Sup's team here for the finished beauty that is OXC.

I play TBS games for the same reasons kharille mentioned above. The other day I was playing a mod and came across a more difficult situation with all my operatives spread out, so I got up and went for a quick workout at my local gym, only a few blocks out. came back, made a move that turned out okay, and finished the mission.

Still can't wait for a better OXC experience on my Android tablet. The controls are something I can't get used to. If we get more updates, it'll be a dream and I'll take it with me everywhere, never closing the game out. Make a move every couple minutes while doing stuff. during breaks and in between hangouts/movies. That's taking it to the next level.


Now I'd like to know what the best portable PC experience is, currently. I can probably ask in an appropriate sub. would love to know future plans as well to start saving money. Like using a Steam controller hmm... What about that Nvidea Shield handheld?

Anyways, you guys are awesome.

FYI, Terrain pack worked smoothly during my playthrough with your mod. I would recommend it as well. One of the best mods I've ran last year, so thanks mate!

Offtopic / What class names do you use for your operatives?

« on: January 31, 2017, 10:23:43 am »

As the title says, weapon class names for your units with human weaponry mods installed like the shotgun and sniper. I'll share some of mine.

Rifleman: Agent
Squad leader: *Military Alphabet* Lead
Light Machine Gun: Gunner AR (Automatic Rifleman)
Grenade Launcher: Grenadier
Sniper: Watchman
Rocker Launcher: Heavy TD (Tank-Destroyer)
Shotgun Pointman: Breacher
Shotgun Support (right behind ya): Specialist
My highest rank always stays in the Ranger equipped with an Auto-Cannon and smoke.

Obviously, I'd like some more creative names for my unique X-COM army, so hit me if you got any.
