There's a thing I discovered yesterday, and you might find it helpful (if you don't know this already). The AI moves its units in the same sequence as the sequence defined in alienDeployments (top-to-bottom), not by a fixed rank order. I used this to make the AI move tough units first to tank player's reactions etc.

Power suits don't protect from fire.

Uh actually vanilla Power Suits have immunity to Fire. Don't know why my ones don't. Fixed and thanks.
Hope Oisin doesn't take to long in hospital.
How are you holding out on your current campaign? I hope you will not give up.

Unfortunatly not, but i used your snow mcd files on normal urban and expanded terror, works :)
We would need a desert theme also.

Fixed Water animation for TFTD Water, unfortunatly the wateris now blue instead of blue cyan, the UFO palette doesn't have that color combination.

Hope you people will still like it.

See attached screenshots:

Uhh that mission was made possible by the conversion of the map and MCD sets by Hobbes. All credit goes to him, i just included it and probably some more of the stuff he has in UFO Redux. I will adapt things if i see the need.

The mod is far from being finished and at the moment lacks unique stuff, like a human collaborator faction for example.
So it is not quite ready yet. But difficulty should be really good i hope.

Thanks for the share thou.

Started rework of Mapscripts for Terrormissions, first focus URBAN, MADURBAN and EXPANDED_TERROR Maps.

Are you making new map blocks, or fixing old ones?
