Buatha Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 I'm about to begin the game, however I see a lot of negative perspectives on this game, with a few positive ones. I understand that reviews are normally based on out of box experiences and not patched games, so I'm trying to make sure I don't get a skewed perspective of this game. So, to all of you veterans here, how should I begin the game? In other words, other than the patch, should I use any particular mod to fix any possible problems I might have with the game?

BlackAlmaz Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 all the mods work with patch 1.3 reason is that the game was very unmodebel before than..thats might be the reason for the bad reviews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kret Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 I don't think any of the mods are correction only mods, they also contain new armors and weapons, aswell as enemies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aralez Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 Just as Kret said: The mods ADD things, the patches are there to correct things. Albeit the last patch ADDED a very annoying bug when moving in OUFOs becomes impossible. But Slaughter said 1.4 is on the horizon (maybe a bit BEHIND the horizon, ok) and we will finally be able to play UFOAM without bugs. I would first play an unmodded game on easy and if you completed it: Go choose your mods! The Camera-Mod is a must, as well as Kret's Skill-mod. If you like Xcom sounds -> try the Xcom music -and-sound mod! Maybe when you are back looking for the RBmod, it's newest "grandchild" the combo-mod is available in its newest version! Otherwise try the old RBMOD or Combomod. They are worth their price, too !(What ? They are freeware ? oops) And not to forget the Stargate-mod, which is in work atm!

Buatha Posted September 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 Thanks, everyone for your answers. For the camera mod, is that the first person one or the other that adds a bunch of different views? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackAlmaz Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 with it you can get as close to your stoops as you whant..its almost like first person..asn you can see along the ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slaughter Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 Thanks, everyone for your answers. For the camera mod, is that the first person one or the other that adds a bunch of different views?Both I believe. The one Fulby made for ALPine has more views I think. As for Aftermath, play without the mods first (at least the big ones that adds a lot of stuff). And welcome to the boards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buatha Posted September 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 Final question: Is there any conflict between the two camera mods? I ask since I've played Morrowind, and some people's mods would stomp all over other people's mods that tweaked the same aspects of the game.

BlackAlmaz Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 yes there is...but you can only use one using alpine..that way you dont have to wory about anything else...and a worning...do not add anyweapons, from prvies mods, using alpine...whne you play the newr mods..cause alot of the models eather changed....or will just conflict Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kret Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 Mods that alter the same parameters will conflict. In the least problematic case, only one of the mods will prevail (which one you'll only know after loading the game) and in the worser cases it will lead to a CTD on game load, game start or mission load Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aralez Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 Iirc the second camera mod makes the older one obsolete... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
