[WIP][MOD][OXCE] From the Apocalypse 0.29.0

[The Reaver of Darkness]

Yes! This mod is truly wonderful! It really gets that Apocalypse feel across. I particularly like how you have re-shaped the tiles into the Apocalypse dimensions. How did you do it?

[chaosshade]

I like the new aliens, I was able to cobble together some new alien races (and tailor to my unique brand of humour)

Anyway, I wanted to ask you something Robin.
Do you accept requests?
Your graphics are 7 orders of magnitude better than anything else... and some modding resources (used by multiple mods) would deserve some more love.

Talking mostly about Ufopaedia art (autopsy and live aliens), e.g. for Thin Man and other races floating around here.

Even more specifically, would you be willing to help with Ufopedia art for Area 51?
...as described here: https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,5527.0.html

I don't have much to offer in exchange what I could offer is implement features from your wishlist (if you have one) in OXCE+ with high priority... of course only if they are feasible.

That's cheating.

Anyway, I don't take requests because I don't have enough time to do them. In the past year I made a terrain and a couple of units..  if I'd have to fit something else my mod would basically become frozen.
I once thought (after openapoc project was started) about dropping the mod and just doing smaller self-contained things that could be more manageable for me and more useful to the community, but afterall I want to continue. I'm selfish.

This is a characteristic of all the major modders: we all have our own pet projects

It would be really nice if someday the most active/creative people around here all worked in the same project: someone responsible for Geoscape, another for terrains, another for art, another for features/coding etc. Then I believe that something really amazing could be born.

 This is true. The talent around here is immense, with enough focus all could even create an Indie game ( well made X-com clone) from scratch IMHO. Sell on Steam split the proceeds... lol.

Yes, that would be awesome.  Call it "Epic X-COM" or "Awesome COM"

Seriously, it really would be a sight to behold to have all these talented people come together in a unified version of enhanced X-COM.

the robot vacuum cleaners are a nice touch, kinda like rosie from the jetsons
