To research the new crafts, you generally need to research aqua plastics, Zyrrbite and things, but also usually need some kind of live alien.

But not a Tasloth Commander!

I think that there is a link to a place with the research fix, but there is also a X-Com 2 researches list (very, very handy!) in a .pdf format.

You can get your info there. Also Lizard, congrats on the 100th post! (I was considering a quadruple post to get to 100 but that wud get me kicked out!)

Although I got the 500th UFO post :bleh:

There is no need to install anything, there is an X-Com Terror from (or of, can't remember) the Deep icon (it's an .exe file) which you can run it through. There are two, one of them runs in XP.

Thanks... :max:
Yup,I researched anything,all ufo components,all weapons,all aliens,all CAPTURED TASLOTHS :ranting: :Titan: .
Hmmph-Going to start new game-

Only the tasloth commander breaks the game, you can research all of the rest of them!

Lizard 25-02-2005 12:22 PM

:blink:
Dont know.Maybe I just miss some Ufo components? :blink:
However it is much harder when you must shot down Very large ufos just with baracudas but it is playable.But I guess to win the game you will need some Super-Dooper uber aircraft (like Avenger in Ufo) which can reach the final mission

Hi, sorry for being such a newb, but can some help me?

I read the old posts in this forum, and thought that dosbox will be a good choice
to try. I kinda struggled with the commands but managed to install and start TFTD,
but my sounds is extremely slow. The game itself runs fine with the use of ctrl+F12, and the only problem is my sound. I think that it might have to do with the sound configuration when installing but I dunno.

Some one plz help!

Lizard, the craft you speak of is called the Leviathon!

To get it you need to get a live Lobsterman Commander, I think, although if you research a Tasloth commander the research bug makes it impossible to get the research for the Leviathon, and hence the game is unwinnable.

Really, really annoying if you only keep 1 campaign (geoscape) save.

Lobster mans?But they are Evil!!! :ph34r:
I hate them.I hate all aliens that survive two headshots with sonic rifle GRRR...
Btw I must start a new game I guess becouse I HAVE just one geospace save...
Im beginning to doubt if is X-Com Terror from the depth worth it :angry:

I posted a fix for that a week ago. Just go back a page or two and you'll find it.
