Asmodai Posted October 8, 2002 Report Share Posted October 8, 2002 I'm trying to get all the files I need to run the game, and I wanted to know if any of you party people still play it so I'm not going through all this for nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asmodai Posted October 8, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2002 What exact files do i need? I got the files in the download section, but it's not enough... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bastiaan Posted October 8, 2002 Report Share Posted October 8, 2002 Do you have the game itself, could be usefull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asmodai Posted October 9, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2002 Oh poo... I thought it was a downloadable game. Ugh that sux. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted October 9, 2002 Report Share Posted October 9, 2002 No, it doesn't suck really. It's actually quite fun try finding the member here known as Doug. I believe he acquired a few copies he found in one of his local gaming shops, and he'd be more than happy to pass them on (definitely - who needs 7 copies? ). Hope that helps! For mjore info and even some screenshots of the game, head on over to the E-Mail X-COM section o the site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Veteran Posted October 9, 2002 Report Share Posted October 9, 2002 Yeah! I play it now! Thankyou Bastiaan for finding a copy for me! It arrived this morning all the way from the Netherlands! That makes my copy of the game better travelled than I am... So who's up for a fight then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bastiaan Posted October 9, 2002 Report Share Posted October 9, 2002 Roger , but I can't play myself right now, because a friend fixed my computer and didn't have time to install EX-COM again, so I have to wait till he comes by to get it to work again, because I can't do it myself as some of you know.

Asmodai Posted October 10, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2002 What's this ab00t re-writing? Is the entire game being re-written? Or is it like a mod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Veteran Posted October 10, 2002 Report Share Posted October 10, 2002 And where is the game server??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asmodai Posted October 10, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2002 I think some dude made a server-less patch or whatever. It's in the Downloads section, if it what i think it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted October 10, 2002 Report Share Posted October 10, 2002 Deary me Vettie Keep up there! Read the E-Mail X-COM section and you'll find that Infogrames shut down the official server, so Tankman wrote a serverless patch to make it run Asmodai: It's more like a mod than a rewrite, for legal reasons I presume. We'll keep hounding Sid Meier at Firaxis tho and see what he says about giving it away free, but don;t keep your hopes up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Veteran Posted October 11, 2002 Report Share Posted October 11, 2002 Can't get the damn thing to work without the server... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asmodai Posted October 11, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2002 Doug if you get this, can I please have one of those xtra copies of EX-Com? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted October 11, 2002 Report Share Posted October 11, 2002 Vettie, Doug's links should help, or PM one of the other EX-COM players and get them to talk you through it I suppose I really should finish the new tourney program with this renewed interest then...

XCOM SPECIAL FORCES Posted November 8, 2002 Report Share Posted November 8, 2002 I want to join in on the fun. Where in the hell can I d/l the game from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Posted November 8, 2002 Report Share Posted November 8, 2002 I want to join in on the fun. Where in the hell can I d/l the game from. I still have a couple of copies left, would you like to make me an offer for one ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted November 8, 2002 Report Share Posted November 8, 2002 or, to clarify: the game isn't legaly d/l able, as its a comercial game, however doug has a couple of copies left. note: once the game you have, get the serverless mod you must.

Wormfist Posted November 8, 2002 Report Share Posted November 8, 2002 Hey guys out there somewhere... Still working on the EXcom boost..... Lately I've been VERY busy, moving my house, flunking school and cleaning up my toilet... Anywho, just don't think I'm another bigmouth who drops the project after some time...
