I think the spiders left and right facing sprites are swapped. Screencap wouldn't capture the direction arrows, so I drew them by hand.
Just as giant beetle moving sprites in right-down direction.

Anyone might have a corrected version?

Some newly found bugs.

STR_MIB3_CORPSE: "MiB Elite Corpse" - I don't know if it's as intended. There are three types of MiB soldiers that can be considered as elite: MiB Coordinator, MiB Commander and MiB Executor. There are no corpse strings for all three of them.

STR_ADVANCED_FIREARMS_DEP1 - this should be STR_ADVANCED_FIREARMS_DEP_1

M83 Barett - should be M83 Barrett

Quote
Contact: Promotion III, Cult Arms Dealers and Red Dawn Operations.

I think "Contact" is wrongly placed and should go to "Cult Arms Dealers". It's repeated two times - STR_PKM_UFOPEDIA and STR_M60_UFOPEDIA.

Purchasing this weapon requires Contact: Promotion III

This time the word "Contact" is unnecessary.

hopefully to the plece these Jarheads are made

Missing strings:

STR_LEADER_PLUS
STR_COMMANDER_PLUS
STR_ZOMBIE_CORPSE
STR_TOMB_GUARD_CORPSE
STR_SNAKEMAN_MEDIC
STR_ETHEREAL_ENGINEER
STR_ETHEREAL_MEDIC
STR_ETHEREAL_NAVIGATOR
STR_MIB_SECTOPOD_CORPSE
STR_TERROR_MISSION_SECTOID_BRIEFING
STR_TERROR_MISSION_MUTON_BRIEFING
STR_ALIEN_BASE_ASSAULT_SECTOID_BRIEFING
STR_ALIEN_BASE_ASSAULT_MUTON_BRIEFING
STR_MANSION_MIB_BRIEFING
STR_MALE_CIVILIAN_BODYGUARD
STR_SPIDER_SIBERIA_BRIEFING
STR_CYBERWEB_MANUFACTURING_PLANT_BRIEFING
STR_KNOCK_OUT_INDICATOR

All of the maps in the cult activity missions have no names and are shown as MAP_ANY_NAME_HERE. The same applies to RITUAL MASS MURDER, Gang War, Durathread Factory, Syndicate Assassination and EXALT Liquidation missions.

Two more examples of missing strings are attached in the first two screenshots.

Also I don't know if that works as intended but some titles of mission descriptions are doubled. One of the examples is in the third screenshot.

Beyond that I found a funny bug with the Black Lotus Mandarins. They lost their legs and are floating in the air :). See the fourth and the fifth screenshot.

Sorry for the double posting but I can't attach more screenshots to my first post.

Found the misplaced pictures. If we look at the the man in a business suit we get a man in the beachwear and vice versa. See the first four screenshots.

On the fifth screenshot there's no roof on the building. It's just black. I found this problem on a Syndicate Reactor Raid mission. I don't know if it's really a bug but it looks strange so I decided to include it to my report.

And the last one. That's the error I got while trying to start the Syndicate Headquarters mission.

Yes, because it defaults to Corpse. No need for strings.

STR_ADVANCED_FIREARMS_DEP1 - this should be STR_ADVANCED_FIREARMS_DEP_1

M83 Barett - should be M83 Barrett

Thanks, all fixed. Except for _BRIEFING strings, as they are not displayed.

All of the maps in the cult activity missions have no names and are shown as MAP_ANY_NAME_HERE. The same applies to RITUAL MASS MURDER, Gang War, Durathread Factory, Syndicate Assassination and EXALT Liquidation missions.

Yeah, but they only appear in Quick Battle, so it's not a pressing issue. I'll add them over time.

Two more examples of missing strings are attached in the first two screenshots.

Yes, but it's not as much a string problem as a vanilla leftover. Fixing it would be a bit more involved, but I'll see to it.

Also I don't know if that works as intended but some titles of mission descriptions are doubled. One of the examples is in the third screenshot.

Not intended... I need to disable it. But for the love of God, I can't remember how!

Beyond that I found a funny bug with the Black Lotus Mandarins. They lost their legs and are floating in the air :). See the fourth and the fifth screenshot.

OK, I'll have a look :)

I'll check too. Thanks!
[EDIT: yeah, the terrain was outdated.]

And the last one. That's the error I got while trying to start the Syndicate Headquarters mission.

Oops. Looks like I broke the system.
[EDIT: Fixed.]

Two more missing strings :). I modified my first post but it was too late - STR_KNOCK_OUT_INDICATOR and STR_KNOCK_OUT_INDICATOR_DESC.

I double this. I saw this few versions ago and I thought it's a OXCE+ issue, not mod's.

OK, all fixed now. Thanks for reporting.

Speaking of bugs, alienDeployment for the M.A.G.M.A. Lab is broken... I mean it works, but instead of normal Zombies it spawns Megazombies, making the entire mission way less pleasant. (Unless you have a boner on destroying giant undead monsters.) Also fixed on my end.

Oh, I thought the Megazombies were intentional, regular zombies would make more sense for when it appears in the tech tree.

Yet again I double this. I thought this was intentional too and skipped the second M.A.G.M.A. Lab mission.

Well, I just found that Zombie Infector can zombify the Tank/Scout. Yes, you read it right: this little drone has been turned into zombie.

One more typo you forgot to fix :).

STR_MINIMI_UFOPEDIA: Purchasing this weapon requires Contact: Promotion III.

And I have also one more question concerning the reactor map - is that normal that the ladder is now one floor higher than the roof?

I thought it looked better like this...
