You don't need to download all of them, some packages (uforadient, ufoai-server, ufoai-music, ufoai-dbg, ufoai-tools) are optional.

The base minimum to download are:
ufoai (i386 or amd64), ufoai-common, ufoai-maps, ufoai-misc, ufoai-sound and ufoai-textures

To install them use dpkg:
sudo dpkg -i ufoai*.deb

Hi. I solved my linux problem. I'm now installing 2.4 on debian-based distro. i want to install 2.5, so i need to download:

ufoai-misc_2.5~git20131101-1_all.deb

ufoai-sound_2.5~git20131101-1_all.deb

ufoai-maps_2.5~git20131101-1_all.deb

ufoai-textures_2.5~git20131101-1_all.deb

ufoai-common_2.5~git20131101-1_all.deb

But, i when you said "ufoai (i386 or amd64)", you refers to: ufoai_2.5~git20131101-1_amd64.deb, or i need the 2.4 base to upgrade?

Thanks.

I do a wrong thing. I copied all these files on the final directory. The game doesn't works. I uninstalled it, but now when i try to reinstall the 2.4, an error occurs; the package is not recognized as a debian package.

I'm looking for a solution, so, when i found it, i will try to do the installation again.

There is an official Debian release being developed by apo (a Debian Games Dev). You can get the testing packages here: ftp://46.182.19.209/ufoai/

The thread can be found here: http://ufoai.org/forum/index.php/topic,7862.0.html

I need to download all the files? If i download them, how can i install them?

Ok, i will post my ufoconsole soon.

Damn...sorry to have lead you down the garden path cevaralien in my defence I did alot of model testing in 2.4 but switched  for the actual mod as there was a major weapon re-balance in 2.5. Anyway I hope you can get it sorted (or get a copy of 2.5 it is a better all round game).

Don`t worry my friend. I want to install 2.5 but i use linux and i`m not expert working with the system. I need a compiled version, just like de 2.4.

Are you placing the files direct into the base directory or creating a mod folder and putting them there then starting as per http://ufoai.org/wiki/Mod

I`m placing it on the base directory. All my mods are there.

By .txt do you mean the "_grenl_plasma_ammo_txt" as these are in the msgid folder in the  weapons.ufo file. As far as I'm aware UFOAI doesnt use any .txt files other than a few readme's

Yeah, i means that. That folder, msgid, isn`t on my 0ufos.pk3 or another .pk3 file. Can you explain me more about de msgid folder please? I want to do a research report for the researched ammo clip (that from Commander Navarre) but i don`t know where are these files.

thanks for your patience

I`m now using linux, a distro based on debian wheezy. Before, i was using windows and i remember that folder. I will search in my windows-based computer.

My friend, i used your mod but it failed. Simply, the clip don`t show. I`m thinking it could be problem with the game itself.

Notice that i`m using the plasma grenade as a base for my mod (because i know that works) and the assault rifle magzine. I will use your mod for testing.

And another question, where is the .txt files? I don`t found them.

Thanks Antjam.

Well, i will follow your advice.

« on: May 04, 2014, 06:11:52 am »

Hi, nice to stay on this forum. This is a great game!

I`m playing 2.4 on linux. I`m triyng to do a new clip for assault rifle (armour piercing). I wrote the research and weapon_human files but my clip doesn`t works. I don`t know what i`m do wrong.

I only copy and paste the "rs_weapon_assault_ammo" and rename "rs_weapon_assault_AP_ammo" on the RESEARCH file and i copy and paste the "item assault_ammo" with the name "item assault_AP_ammo" on the weapon_human file.

Can anyone help me?

Another question. Where is the .txt files? i want to do some work on it, but in don`t know where they are.

Thanks.
