I would not recommend trying to play with this UI. It is very early in the development and I've just shared it so others can see where I am going. It's not functional enough for regular play.

well if ya can link the personal , i think i will enjoy being ur beta-tester:) the UI looks great

i have to agree with this, i played a fair game, did all crash sites, and took down all alien ships that were in my range, and not flying awya form me, made 2 aditional bases, 3 sam batteries fully equiped, but i stil got 1 country rebeling:/ before i couild even put nanoarmor on a full squad.

hey:) you was right, i had only the first version, i updated to latest gui version and now the switch hands button shows.

one more thing that i noticed after a couple of missions, sometimes the target (X) disappears from certain weapons and i have to fire blind , especially after using medipack. never noticed this before, but i did update my game to a new build and that might be it also.
will try with default gui and see if this stlil happens

first of all it looks nice, trying to get used to it, but i think im gona like it:)

i got a fast question about this gui: how to switch from right hand to left hand:) so i can use that one , except changing items in inventory window.

Works mostly fine on my oneiric amd64 laptop w. intel graphics.

1) I had to force install with dpkg --force-depends though, and symlink /usr/lib/libbfd-2.20.1-system.20100303.so to /usr/lib/libbfd-2.21.53-system.20110810.so
2) In ~30 hours of playing I have seen 1 crash in the earth view, and 1 crash in the tactical mode

I am now building ubuntu oneiric packages from recent git. Will post links here when I confirm working game client.

I managed to build up a git version also but before december update, if ya can make .deb , i would apreciate it. tnx

Discussion / in mission field map?

« on: August 05, 2011, 10:39:18 am »

hello im new to this forum and game and i have to say i'm amazed so much of the old xcom tactics and feeling is in this game, GOOD JOB

i remember in Xcom there was a in-mission map, where u could see the battle field and highlighted team and enemies which helped alot with my strategy, is there such option here?

and the 2nd thing i wanted to point out, when in a dark mission (night time) i enter with my soldier in a dark room, it used to light up and see whats in there, here its stil dark, and its hard to understand if there are holes in the ground in which i could fall and i cant quite feel if im protected in a corner or there is a gap in the wall
