Installing the games before open xcom

[AlexanderIron]

Hello, I own the original xcom and terror from the deep on cd rom.  I can't figure out how to install the games.  pressing the .bat file gives me an error.  simply copying the contents of the cd rom does not constitute installation according to open xcom.  Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Alex

You need to copy the game data folders (GEODATA, GEOGRAPH, TERRAIN, UNITS, etc): https://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php/Installation_FAQ_(OpenXcom)#Nightlies_.28eventually_to_be_used_for_v2.0.29
If they're not available on the discs without installation, you'll just have to use something like DOSBox to install the games before you can copy them to OpenXcom.
