Great games Ufo and Tftd

BUT... on the last mission of Tftd... the game crashes :karate:

Anyone knows a fix for that? I am running on crappy win xp pro sp2...

[Eagle of Fire]

I never actually finished TFTD myself.

I know of a rumor which said that the comercial release of TFTD was infected by a virus known to format the HD of the player when they reached the last mission.

I am not sure if that rumor is true (or was true), but if you can't play the last mission try to find a patch for TFTD. This is likely to be enough to let you end the game.

[Dr. Dude]

er... and where can i find this "good" patch?

I have tryed about 3 patches
A virus? Well i guess norton will kill it before it try's something

I had a Hd crash last week so not much to lose anyway :whistle:

First of all, do you use DOSBox?

[Dr. Dude]

The what? Can you eat that? :blink:


Thats a no


Edit: I have downloaded it, and tryed evry start command in the ufo folder. Al say it can't be run in dos :ranting:

[Eagle of Fire]

Then you have the Windows version. I would suggest that you find the DOS version and use DOSBox with XP to run it, but then I am really not sure if you could take your savegame to the DOS version... Would beat the purpose.

This game is chalk full of H.P. Lovecraft references. One of the sea creatures is even Cthulhu. k:

what the hell is that. any way i have(in cd form) all X-com games and have had them for a while. i like UFO-Enemy Unknown I also Like TFTD And Apocalypse. i think the battles in TfTD are better and the colours of the menues are also better but the geoscape in UFO is better designed. I also think the Shipping routs are a pain in the behind and the way the tech tree is designed is gay eg you cant get the displacer sonic until you get the hammerhead. i agree tho that the lobster men are a pain but all you have to do is use thermal shock bombs, sonic cannons and disrupter pulse launchers . all in all i think both are great games as well as apoc(classic). they are probably the best stratigies ever. much better that C&C.

ps. my friend finnished it(commercial version) and it didn't format his HD. its a myth.

that is an author of some real good horror books. Try shadow of the comet to play a game based on his books.
