nigelt74:
Hope this is the right section to ask questions in, if not please move the post

1) What is the download "Alien Invasion NG" is it the completed game, or the second tech demo
2) What does NG stand for, "Next Generation", "New Game", "Narly Gerbil", "Not Gone"
3) Not a question, But Thanks for the update, as i am sure a lot of us were wondering if the project had died

Cheers

1.) There is no complete download of the new version available yet - you have to manually assemble this from the base archive (available on sf.net) and the svn repository.
2.) It's only to let the people see, that the administration has changed - the original authors are gone - this don't have any particluar meaning. But nevertheless next generation sounds reasonable.
3.) you're welcome - but feel free so contribute yourself, too :-D

NG means Naked Girls. It's a ploy to attract more people to the project.

Hello!
I came accross your project by accident and I can only say IT WAS ABOUT TIME TO SEE A DECENT UFO GAME!!!!!!!!!!!.
My first experience with XCOM was in 1996 and since then I consider it the best game I ever played (and STILL play). The only other game that came close was Jagged Alliance.
For years I was searching for a similar game and nothing could come even close (Aftershock and Aftermath should not even be allowed to the market!!!!!!!!!!!  BAN THEM, NOW!!!!!!!!!!!)
Anyway, I would like to ask a few questions:
1)

What exactly do you mean? Where and what are the base archives and the svn repository?  And how do we asseble it? I am sorry but I am not very familiar with your site and I really need some help. I downloaded the demo version and I REALLY REALLY REALLY want the whole game!!!!!!
2)If the game is not ready yet, when do you expect it?
3)How will it be available?
Sorry for the long post and I hope you will help me
PS: If you are interested in a Greek translation I can give it a shot!!!!!

You need to grab the Techdemo2 Installer (linux version can be found at http://liflg.org -> Forum). After you have installed the Techdemo2 Beta you need to grab the svn repository and copy over the old files
see svn tutorial at http://ufoai.sf.net/tutorials.html

Unknown - we are developing the story, coding the engine and creating game arts. We are welcome to contribute. You can grab e.g. the mapeditor and set up a few maps for e.g. basetiles or randommaps.

How? Do you mean free? It´s opensource and will be free.
