Xeno Operations Mod - is it discontinued?..
« Reply #330 on: August 09, 2017, 08:31:52 pm »
It looks like this really good and promising mod are abandoned...


So, we need to find a not-so-busy and experienced modder,
who will be maintaining the XenoOps Mod:

> fixing future incompatibilities with newest OpenXcom nightlies
and
> probably fix the existing gameplay-related bugs.


(I cannot do this myself because I'm too busy with real life stuff
like cooking, housekeeping, photography tours and, of course, work).

I pretty much liked your attitude to this mod, but the XENO OPS mod is compatible with the latest nightlies, my best bet is that for you to use OXCE+ to fix the bugs, been playing it from last year and I continued on upgrading into the newest nightlies were the mod is still working WITH a lot of bugs, that's why I recommended you to use OXCE+, but you must also download the mod "Missing Strings" so the game will work properly without incorrect typos

Y'know... unless XOps stays gone for a much longer time without a word, or has given express permission for continuation by an external party, I feel like it's kind of a dick move to write him off as gone and declare that someone else should do his job for him.

Especially if you don't want to do it yourself. What are you, a mod coroner?

Well, not coroner, but I think we could use a mod orphanage... It's a much needed position.

Of course, a mod must be a confirmed orphan before going to the orphanage. ;)

Maintenance is something everyone who is interested can participate in such as what Cristao did for eliminating a problem with  STR_MUTON_GUARD.

He posted the fix and where we can add (or remove ) it ourselves if we are playing that mod.

The problem is that we all have busy lives and many of us have our own projects that we are working on here in our limited spare time.

If you want to develop your own mod or a spiritual successor to his work then perhaps invest the time into picking it up yourself, it is quite daunting at first but as stuff starts to work out the ideas keep flowing :)

This is easily my favourite mod out of them all for XCOM, and it's pretty sad to see it in a stagnant state. I would love at least a peep from the developer too confirm he is at least alive, you know? Obviously his life takes first priority over the mod, but a word of acknowledgement would be wonderful.

Small QoL mod for those still playing Xeno Operations - it makes all of those armor color variants use the same armor as the standard version, meaning you only need to manufacture one set of armor to get access to all the colors.

Hello everybody, my name is Dmitriy. You speak, that mod is abandoned and it need a not busy modder. I am not modder, but i can translate it to russian and maybe there are some not busy modders in russian users of OpenXCOM and a XOps mod.

Well, I'm not the mod 'owner', but a very busy modder. So if you want to translate it to Russian, you can, then I'll implement it to the mod, how about that?
