Good to see you back online Supsuper

Great to see you back SupSuper, you need to help out, I can't satisfy the openxcom community on my own anymore, they're out of control, waaaa :p

[luke83]

its all for the greater good

Daiky, SupSuper you just need to channel our energies!

we are so excited about finally seeing an xcom "port" that works and is moddable and everything, and want to help in any way we can!


really, now, if you can think of anything I can do to help the game, tell me!  Unfortunately I'm not a coder, although I understand some of the logic behind it.

Another sneak peak , only 2 levels this time as i need to go do the washing up

[luke83]

OK so far i have 9 harvesters , i need one more before i can start moving onto setting up there spawn points....Such a long process , i hope people use them when i am done

[luke83]

OK i now have 10.5 Harvester UFOs ( Yes 10.5 , the .5 UFO will be finished when i can stand to look at the UFO again as i am officially sick of looking at the harvester UFOs). Over the next week i will start doing there Spawn Points.

After this massive UFO set of mine is done i am only doing small Mods , if i pick any other large jobs i want someone to smack me

[luke83]

Next version of UFOs is available for download , please try to find any bug

FYI: i have started work on Abductor UFOs .

With OpenXcom v0.4 supporting all UFOs on geoscape , maybe someone can start testing these ufo before i finish and find out None of them work

[luke83]

Should have the next release of my Expanded UFOs out this weekend , just have a few bugs to fix before i upload them. So that's Medium scout , Large scout, harvester and Abductors completed.

There was a small delay , but V0.4 of these UFO are ready to go - tested on Gitbuild 2012_09_30_1528.zip - built 2012-09-30 13:31

Can't wait! Refreshing main page daily for 0.4.5!

[luke83]

OK so works been a killer lately , has not left me much time to work on these but you will be glad to know that tonight i am almost finished the Rotated Terror ship   This is big news for me as getting the outside hull correct for the rotated version of the original ufo is the hardest part , once its done its easy to build a few different types     Wont be long until i have a full set to start showcase to the community.

luke83, thanks for your excellent work!

Rotated version of UFOs should be included in the normal game.

luke83, thanks for your excellent work!

Rotated version of UFOs should be included in the normal game.

+1 for that.

I think all battlescape elements should exist in all rotations. that would add a whole lot of variability to the game. also, it could enable us to actually include a routine for rotating the camera eventually
