The newest Windows installer (with fixed 3D graphics).

Destructavator:
From sourceforge (2.1) or one of the beta installers?

Takai:
Beta, beta.

Destructavator:

--- Quote ---Continued: NO UFOPEDIA! How am I supposed to know if Machine Gun is "Assault Weapon" or a "Heavy Weapon"? Or know about its firing modes? Without leaving the game, that is (I'm aware there's a Wiki.)

There is, or at least should be a UFOPedia in the game, although given that you've downloaded a beta, I suppose it is possible it might be a temporary bug in that particular development snapshot - if such is the case, what happens when you click the UFOPedia button on the main geoscape?  I'm not one of the devs, but if you post a screenshot I'm sure one of them could help.

Takai:
I didn't see any such, but maybe I just overlook it.

Also, most options on the base screen are written This Way, but one is written This way.

Edit: I'm now reading wiki. and see "Along with high-explosive rockets and grenades, this [Sniper Rifle] is one of the few standard-issue human weapons that are fully effective against robotic aliens." Hand grenades shouldn't really work this way - unless there are standard anti-personal and specialized AT grenades.
