I have this transfer problem: (i searched a bit and only found the "transfer-crash"-problem)

I have three bases: Europe, Asia, Southamerica. Tranferring equipment between the first two isn't a problem.
But when I try to tranfer equipment from Europe or Asia to Southamerica, it always arrives in Europe. :blink:

How can this happen? Southamerica has loads of storage left.

works fine with me... but i use the dos version.

have a base in Europe, Indonesia and Brazil. A 4th is opened now in Antarctica.

I use the DOS version as well...

I considered building bases in the polar regions as well...

Strange, I never had problems like this
IIRC my version crashed only using 3 or 4 Interceptors on the same UFO...

LOL, now I tried using the DOS version as suggested and Transfer functions... somehow... If I try to transfer stuff from Europe to USA (my only two bases up to now) it arrives back in Europe. :bleh: Ah, whatever, I´ll perhaps try a third base for transfering somewhere else, anyhow the game´s still burner! Thanks for the DOS-tip!

You may not have the installations to receive all what you are trying to transfer to the second base. Like live Aliens, for example, require Alien Contrainment Chamber (or whatever it's called).

I just wanna transfer guns!
The guest has the same problem, see?

Hi all, ill be very gratefull if someone know answer for this. So, i was playing hte game and everything went smoothly, but then i ran out of elerium, and i only had firestorms and avengers. Problem is that always when i attack an alien ship it blows up too badly and i lose the elerium and power sources.

Attack an alien base. There's usually some elerium to find there.
In the meanwhile, you might have to sell some of your advanced crafts and replace them with Skyrangers and Interceptors so that you can continue.

To avoid extensive damage to UFOs, use less destructive weapons. This means NO FUSION BALLS, unless you're going after a Battleship. The Avalanche missiles should be enough.

Also, perhaps you've been spending Elerium too happily? Remember that most of the time you don't need to produce Plasma weapons or Blaster Launchers for your troops, since there's plenty gained from salvage.
Other things you can spend Elerium on should also be considered very carefully as an option. If you are sure you can't win without it, take it. If it's not neccesary, don't waste resources.

Great advise by The Fifth Horseman!

In addition, keep using Skyrangers and Interceptors to attack tiny, small and medium UFO's.
Go after landed UFO's (green X on the map) as much as possible since their engines are still intact.
