The New Romance Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Here's Hoping for the end of Page 5 - Just for fun. •The first black-led government of Rhodesia in 90 years takes power on June 1st and the countries name is changed to Zimbabwe - That happened in 1979... lol (Random Google searches are fun) According to Wikipedia, the name change happened in 1980. One of the reasons I still want Rhodesia in on this mod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waladil Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Andorra. Should that be my request? No, too mean. Eh, screw it. Have fun researching Andorran military and combat history! (Apparently they were technically at war with Germany from 1914 till 1939. Who knew?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinetree Posted May 25, 2013 Author Share Posted May 25, 2013 Hey all, I've been away for a while. I've started a new job, which is split shifts, and I've had to do a ton of training so haven't had much time to myself. We're still not at page 5 yet but we're close (hint: my forum settings are set to the maximum posts per page). I won't make an update until the Steam version comes out as I've given up on Desura. I also can't afford to download 6 gigs every couple of weeks as we need the bandwidth so the kids can watch cartoons on youtube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothkins Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 I was thinking that, as per page 1, that Iceland would be the best choice to have in there. It represents increased presence around the crash zone/ containment area and would also be a nice nod for other soldiers to have had experience in the area. Particularly Xenonauts starting troops.

Andeerz Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 <3 So much love for this mod!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinetree Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 (edited) Glad you like it. The next major update is going to include some new nations. So far I've done North & South Korea and Rhodesia (Yep, you guys have convinced me ). I'm planning on adding: Israel, Egypt, China, Sweden, South Africa, Brazil, Argentina, and maybe a couple of others. I'll update the mod tonight for 18.51 and then the next update after that will include the new nations. Oh and keep thinking about a new nation to add as I still haven't reached page 5 Edited June 3, 2013 by Pinetree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rp03ev Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 how do i install this? i have the latest version of the main game that i installed via steam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinetree Posted June 4, 2013 Author Share Posted June 4, 2013 Extract them to your assets folder, which you'll find in \Steam\steamapps\common\Xenonauts. You might want to back up the originals first. There's a mod folder you can use but it's never worked for me so I use the Jonesoft Generic Mod Enabler.

thothkins Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Hmmmm. I didn't see Sweden on the list. We could have it in honour of Swe_Racoon or ABBA and Bjorn Borg if we want to keep that '70s vibe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thothkins Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Congratulations on being the first on page 5! fitting really. I skipped past the Sweden reference in my rush to >sniff< miss out on getting Iceland in there for the final post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinetree Posted June 7, 2013 Author Share Posted June 7, 2013 My post doesn't count (Yeah, I know I said first post but I didn't think it would be me, also it's my competition and I'll change the rules if I want to ) so we have a winner! thothkins, do you want Iceland?Otherwise pick a country and I'll put it in...

Geredis Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 If they haven't been mentioned yet, any chance of South Korea, China, and Taiwan to the list? Additionally, Finland and Switzerland as well (yes, both are traditionally neutral, but I think they'd make an exception for extraterrestrials). Oh, and if not listed somewhere in the thread as well, Argentina and Libya would make for interesting additions. Ireland too, since I almost forgot. I know several, perhaps even all, of these have been listed already, but I do think they bear repeating all the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thothkins Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Hi! I'm now accepting bribes for a country you'd like to see in the game. Usual rates. Just PM me and....shhh Pinetree's back... shhhhhh. no, you shhhh... Pinetree! Hi!.... One quick look at countries of the world circa 1979 list later tells me that I don't ever remember seeing Greenland's flag before. I like the idea of Iceland being a bit perked up militarily as a result of the large crater that scientist spend a considerable amount of time looking over following the Incident. So, yes please.

I like the idea of Iceland being a bit perked up militarily as a result of the large crater that scientist spend a considerable amount of time looking over following the Incident. So, yes please. If I recall, Greenland is/was administered by Denmark. I have the Sirius Snow Patrol, a LRRP unit that patrols Greenland as one of the available units for the Danes so I think that's covered. Iceland it is! Looking at their available units in 1979, I'm going to have to fudge it, but having that bloody great crater in their landscape for 20 years they would definitely do something..

thothkins Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 I think that once there was absolutely nothing forthcoming from the crater, the superpowers just came to an agreement to train up some locals as caretakers. Little did they know.. the radiation would leak out into the community eventually giving us Bjork! [video=youtube;CyM5wow-hUk] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raidsoft Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I'm impressed by the amount of work put into this Looking forward to using this when I'll be playing through the game (still holding off for a bit more fully featured/stable version of the game before putting serious time into it) Can't wait to get some fellow Swedish rookies to send on kamikaze missions when that gets added Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinetree Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 Thanks Progress: I've just added Finland, Sweden, Brazil and Ireland. Still got a few more to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
