The first official patch is here for UFO: Extraterrestrials, making some very anticipated changes.
QUOTE * There is an increase of the selling price for most equipment the player can manufacture or capture. * Autosaving is now possible before each mission and the start of every month. * UFO: Extraterrestrials can now be played in more resolutions (1024x768 and higher) * Windowed mode is now supported. * Tactical mode is animated smoother and is greatly enhanced by a variety of useful new hotkeys and available settings (like movement speed for units or scrolling speed). * Extensive hotkey support for both real time and tactical modes. Read about all the changes here and then download the v7.05 patch here. |

Nice list! The missing hotkeys were one of the things that Slaughter missed, now he will be happy
I do have to wait until the end of June, though. UFO:ET will be released here then. (Europe) Odd, i went into a local EBGames outlet and they didn't even have the game listed in their computer yet |

Wow! It's not so common at all that game developers release patches that address mostly gamers' complaints, especially in such a short time. Go CC!
-------------------- The Iraq war has clearly demonstrated the limits of this form of light, mobile warfare: it can defeat virtually any existing conventional military force, but it provides no special advantages in fighting a prolonged insurgency. JDAMs and televisionguided antitank missiles cannot distinguish between insurgents and noncombatants or help soldiers speak Arabic.

I've downloaded patch but it wants a serial number?
I've tried the things I think are serial numbers on CD and box but they are coming up invalid. Where on box or CD should I be looking? And how many digits is it!!! Rgds Steve |

I got the download from Matrix so I can't tell you exactly where the number physically is, but it's 16 digits (4 sets of 4).

Cheers for letting me know about patch. Haven't played game for a while so will be good to see how it differs with the new patch.
