Thx for this fun.

I did the 2.5 with only 5 riflemen lost in the whole campaign in the medium difficulty using only heavy needlers, partical cannon and EMP sniper.

Nice KI on the sheevars, but there are some "bugs".


1. U dont need to transfer stuff, only sell and rebuy it in the place u need it.

2. Not so good is the "management" of big stocks. U will scroll with the mousewheel for "years" if you try to sell/transfer 3k alien materials ...

3. I think you can improve the skills of the aliens while make them use more grenades, even flash and smoke/fog too.

4. Too easy is getting out of the fog/smoke and "scouting enemies out" and go back into the fog/smoke to kill them.

5.  The hovernets dont got any reaction fire, why?

Its very hard in the beginning to take down the ufos because of the very bad fighters u got. Even the dragon is not useful vs bigger ships.


The last ufo games with the 2 instances of base assaults or alien base attack are more challenging.

The alienbase attacks can do were too easy.


But i had a lot of fun.

thx a lot.

Windows / savegame repair and language update

« on: January 18, 2017, 12:15:13 pm »

hi there,

i used 2.5 (IA-32 Apr 14 2014 Win32 Release) in german and my savegames are corrupted (xml-data).

i tried to use the translator for compiling the .po into .mo to avoid future destruction of my savegames.
But it was impossible for me, to pick the right compilation path for the translated text.

and i need help, to repair my savegames.

the savegame is a great try in the medium difficulty, so must have them repaired. ^^

i there any email, to where i can send them?
