Savegame editors...

Anyone know of a save game editor which actually works?

Alternatively, how can you set a tech in a save game to 'researched'? If I'm going to be playing around with different mods, I want the ability to use nifty stuff now.

Base Defense...

Base defense missions are annoying now, given that aliens either have:

1. Warp rifles/pistols

2. Mind control devices

3. Rocket launchers and minislugs.

And most of them wear bio armor...

Yech.

So, how do I stop these Reticulans? With a heavy dose of Vitamin Lead? With a plasma infusion? With warp rifts?

I've tried my standard team, but the fact that you start seperated is f***ing annoying. And they get cut to ribbons when seperated... the first one or two aliens are easy, but the next ten that swarm you... ugh.

How would I do this?

John-Woo Weapons...

Yeah. Can you give someone, say, a pair of warp pistols and have him use both of them at the same time?

If yes... w00t yea!

If no, I guess I'll have to use a couple hundred of those acid grenades now, won't I?
