Hi Meridian! Could you move the mod menu like in Nightlies? Thanks :)

Why?

Why?
so it is more convenient, options separately, mods separately. But it's your choice of course.

New OXCE v5.6.1 is up.

   * if you have OXCE from between 2019-01-27 and 2019-08-02 it is highly recommended to upgrade

 - Ability to destroy alien bases by research (once daily)
 - Ability to interrupt alien missions by research (once daily or after a mission): https://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,7230.0.html
 - Refactor of vertical levels map generation and alternate terrain handling (by ohartenstein)
 - CTRL toggles No/Patrol button in ConfirmLanding UI
 - BREAKING CHANGE: negative sprite indices are now officially not supported
   * but you can now access sprites and sounds from other mods
 - Increased max number of avatars from 128 to 512

I can start TFTD without problems; also create a base and continue.

Can you try a clean install without mods?
If it works, copy the mods into this new install folder.

If you can't make it work, just zip your entire game folder (the one that doesn't work) and upload it here, I'll check what's wrong.

I saw that the automatic night vision mode was removed as an option. Just wanted to comment that playing xcom files I kinda miss it. I run all of my cultist missions as night missions when in early game without smoke grenades, and not having to remember to turn off personal lights or turn on night vision was super helpful. I don't mind the having to turn on night vision much, but having to remember to turn off personal lights has gotten more than a few agents killed for me.

Thanks Meridian, and sorry for not weighing in on the conversation earlier. I play xcom fairly infrequently anymore (basically only when a new version of xcom files or xpiratez comes out with features I'm super interested in), so I didn't notice the change until fairly recently, even though it was made almost half a year ago.

After several attempts to start the game, it suddenly started working!  ???
I'll put him under surveillance!

A quick question about Mods: are "gif" files allowed with the latest OXCE version?

A quick question about Mods: are "gif" files allowed with the latest OXCE version?

Short answer: yes

Long answer: The GIF file loading is not done directly by OpenXcom, it is done by SDL (a 3rd party library we are using), and even SDL is outsourcing some work to the operating system. On most platforms (e.g. Windows, Linux, Android), it works fine. On some platforms (e.g. MacOS) it doesn't. So, unless you're using Mac, you can use GIFs. If you are on Mac, the only safe bet is png.

Thank you for your answer.

By testing all the mods I have in this game I discovered a very strange thing...
The "Gaus Sniper" Mod was crashing when I wanted to watch the USOpedia!
I discovered that now we shouldn't make any case errors with folder paths.
I had in the Ruleset:  0: Resources/UFOPaedia/GAUSSSNIPERRIFLE.png
But the path was:   Resources/Ufopaedia/GAUSSSNIPERRIFLE.png
 ???

By fixing the case everything works!

OXCE is throwing some errors in the log-file about invalid/obsolete starting condition attributes in one of my mods. Is there any way to get a more detailed overview concerning the actual line or entry that throws that error? Because as far as i can tell they should be working fine.

EDIT:
NVM, found&fixed the errors.

Cross-Hair Cursor Now Allows Select Next Unit Hotkey!!

Thank You for this amazing feature! It wasn't in the April version. In the April version I had to right click with the mouse to make the cross-hair cursor disappear and only then could I select my next unit, IIRC. Now you have added the superb feature of the select next unit hotkey working flawlessly when I still have the cross-hair cursor active. It makes combat so much more streamlined!! Thank You!!

I have not added such a feature.

If you say something like that is now possible, it's most likely buggy and will have to be fixed/removed again.
