[BETA][WIP][BUNCHOFSTUFF] Xeno Operations v0.98

[SIMON BAILIE]

In my current game I may have found a potential bug. I have kept a record of all live aliens captured which equals a muton soldier, muton navigator and a floater navigator but after researching them, I can seemingly research them over and over again. I should only get a dead body back to my stores. Playing xeno operations v0.958 with oxce+ v3.10a of 31/01/18.

--- posts merged. Why so much double posting lately? ---

Forgot to add on previous post that I really enjoy the new design of the ufos as it adds another dimension to the challenge. In the meantime I'm still keeping a record of the aliens I capture and after researching a particular type/rank I sell it to avoid "cheating".

A few observations during my current game: (1) Is it intentional that harvesters don't have a leader? (2) The shock weapons don't appear to have any ufopedia info about them, really do like the shock cannon as a lot of the enemies go down with 1 hit. (3) Currently playing on oxce+ v3.10a of 31/01/18 and I'm into the 2nd year but have only reached stage 3 of the codex.

this mod is absolutely gorgeous, im trapped playing it while also playing the Warhammer 40k total conversion and also the X-files...im like an absolute madman not being able to decide which one keep playing and just keep switching between them but i have to say this is one of my favourites.....if i could only ask or request something..... It would be to have some of your beautiful work on the base tile (i mean the Xcom ones), i play battles time to time just to keep looking to such wonderful sprite work....but always keep wondering if someday the dull gray-brownish ugly tiles/sprites from vainilla xcom base are gonna be washed out like he did with the alien base, i hope that glorius day come (no matter how far it may look i wish that day comes :p).

Ps. maybe i could ask also the sprite for the nerve armour have matching purple lights so they could be EVEN more unique...but thats like nonsensical whinning tho.

Thanks for all your work XOps, im anxious to keep watching (and obviously playing with) all your future work .

An avoidable crash has just occured as research finishes at midnight-see attached. I can in the meantime just pause the research on the floater medic.

[Yataka Shimaoka]

That's a known crash, since muton guards doesn't have any paedia topics, advise is don't research medic classes

Xeno Operations has some amazing sprite work!

I've been editing a few of the weapons colour schemes and I'm sharing them to save anyone who wants to play with something similar a bit of time.

All of the images are attached to this post in a .zip file and are configured to work with the X-Com: Enemy Unknown palette.

HandObs and FloorObs in each colour are also included in the .zip file.

Here is a sheet with all of the different colour styles available in the attached file, The first image in each line is the original equipment colour scheme:



To use these with Xeno Operations just place them in the corresponding weapons resource folder and overwrite the original file.
(Highly recommend making a backup of the original before you do this.)

The path to the resources you would need to overwrite should be something like this:
(Your OpenXcom Mod Folder)/XenoOperations/Resources/Weapons/
(Your OpenXcom Mod Folder)/XenoOperations/Resources/AlienArsenal/

Have fun. ^_^

I encountered a bug where all of the items in my craft were missing from the ground during the first terror mission. Then, when the mission was over, it said all those items were gone and that I didn't have enough items to re-equip my squad.

Is it fully playable now?
Because I wanna test

Sadly I think the mod has been abandoned - hopefully temporarily - as the author is now, well, an author, and runs this YouTube account.

I'm hoping some day he comes back to finish the rest of the mod, as in my opinion I think it is the best XCom mod ever made, or at least has the potential to be. To answer your question though, it is fully playable, but balancing and research times are all over the place, some UFOpedia articles aren't finished, and late-game content is sparse. It's still an amazing experience imo.
