Its not really about being a star, its about communication between the developers and all of you guys and girls who give feedback and make and shape the game.

We are happy that the community is here to make X-Division into what it is and will be today and tomorrow ! One guy asked for acid exploding damaging blood when xenomorphs die. ... . It is on our list and we have already coded the explosion but we still havent come around to fully implement it. Like @Solver said its not about adding THAT feature, its about making sure everything else works as expected as well when you change something.

Larry Burstyn Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Hi. Do I remember correctly that an interim patch will be released today to take advantage of the CE34.2 release? Did I miss it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Burstyn Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 HI. Just for the record I am not a young man (71 Years OLD) and patience does not seem to be one of my virtues. But I will have to wait whether I have patience or not...so be it. (it's one of the reasons I have bad eyes (being old not lack of patience). I am extremely nearsighted and that stretches the retina to the breaking point. I've had one incident of retina detachment and the doc says I'll have more. They were able to restore 75% vision by operating on one of my eyes but eventually it will not be enough. One good eye and one eye with 25% vision loss. Doc says if I live long enough I'd probably loss all my eyesight. But there is no way of knowing when the vision loss will occur so I live day by day with the knowledge that I will go blind eventually. He says they are making lots of progress so maybe they'll be able to reverse the vision loss--maybe not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Burstyn Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 At least I can blame my age for my "mistakes" and my general lack of tack. I want to start a new game with CE34.2...and I want to start it now...but I'll have to wait (--Like I got a choice--LOL). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charon Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 (edited) For the record it is 22:30. Patches Notes: X-Division 99.3 and higher will need the X-Division 0.99 Beta Part 2 mod to be deactivated as it is no longer needed Before applying patches withdraw all scientists and engineers from their current projects. You can reapply them afterwards. You only need to download and install the latest Patch avaialble, it contains all prior fixes as well. The .30 to .31 patch may need a restart of the campaign. Installation: Delete Charons Changes mod if you have it in your mods/ directory. An updated version is included in this patch. Extract the "assets" folder into the main game "Xenonauts" folder. Merge and overwrite. After applying patches follow step 5. and 7. from the main installation process again. DAY 72 Patch 0.99.31 https://mega.nz/#!JFAgnZBI!AoCTaybQ3bw35UByuD6kKSYS-e3rqdqIcGEQA2w5GFY ( MD5: 086bf9addc0bc3eab9f33c67deb0ff42 ) Revised some vehicles and vehicle weapons so that cannons now fit better into the development, made kinetic and mechmac weapon infinitely avaialble on research. Needs feedback. mothership, exsupplyship and mediumshuttle fixed small sebillian alien base old unit removed more and accurate loading tips in the best english we could provide some aircraft changes more research descriptions new manufacture system with around 140 new/revised researches, 126 new manufactures, new items, new armor/vehicle requirements resulting in 499 more strings to be written some revised weapon stats infinite research changes and adaptation aircraft game revised, UFOs now have 130% hp and missiles and torpedos deal 150% damage putting more emphasis on missiles/torpedos, the autoresolve values have been adjusted and the spearcannon tree capacity has been reduced to 75% Decreased the Chieftain/Officer/Leader/Praetor chance to unlock all 24 data hacks from 50% to 25% and increased the other bins appropriately Implemented the Phase 4 Specialist Drops Increased total storage space Turrets should now get upgraded as expected, except for the phase 4 turret All aircraft should now have the correct construction name, and a good approximation to the image, except for the human heavy interceptor Outer UFO doors have been unlocked for now ( needs feedback ) maximum amount of alien bases increased from 5 to 8 XCE 34.2 content, thank Solver for pressing the issue that some things should be in this patch. The 0 cd Terror bug should be fixed now Melee creatures should now be able to attack vehicles, and they make great use of that countries are now available to retake. For now a Fortress will spawn in the lost country and all bases in that country before it can be retaken with around 50 relationship points. This will change in the future as the retaken country missions will get its own map pools and its own increase per ticker values. Making the hardest to retake mission impossible, but still playable. New Storage UI where Solver and Draku made a sorting per category possible, in addition to the column sorting Solver already implemented with XCE 34.2 Edited October 21, 2016 by Charon 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the melee creatures can attack to the vehicles and ranged enemies got a good accuracy and TU buff, including that i worked on AI very detailed this time and every race got it's own behaviour, i need feedback over AI. - Is AI challenging? - How does AI engage to your soldiers? Any traps, any ambushes, any direct assaults?.. How smart is AI at your eyes? - Does your vehicles survive enough? How do you lose them? What is the melee creatures like reapers and xenos react to vehicles now? Those are important to me because they are totally new. We will get much more melee and half melee units (creatures with 1-5 ranged melee attacks) soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sentelin Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Damn, I am so glad you finally formed the team and moved this version from alpha stage (how long has it been, almost a year? ) and I see that X:CE got a bundle of modding features from Solver. It would be really shame, if this projected died, when you burnt yourself with modding. (Now, I have a reason to get back into the game, after sooo long).

Yo, our team is well formed, we are on steam, on reddit, on the goldenhawk forum. We have a developers diary ongoing if you need help or want to see how somebody else is playing. I wrote many threads about modding and modding information which is all centralised by my signature and easy to access. We have a steam group of more than 60 dedicated supporters for X-Division, we have an awesome community which at least contributes 60% of ideas and content to the mod and im not evenm talking about how much the feedback forms the game, propably 95%. We have a dedicated writers corner, a 3d artist working in the background for other things, and constantly communicating with a lot of people on all channels. Our team consists of artists, writers, coders, and testers all working together. Once i am in the mod i will add all teh different nationalities in a nationality banner row who all contributed to X-Division, in the spirit of peacefull coalition for different nations on this planet, working together, as is the original X-Com spirit. We are working together with X:CE and especially with Solver who even made a lot of content possible, improved the UI by a trillion in coallition with our dedicated tester and UI writer Draku. The most important part from Solver was fixing the 0 cd Terror bug which is the fundamental milestone to enable all the players a hasslefree experience of the game. I havent scratched the surface of the content X:CE 34.2 made possible, but the improvements we are able to do with are boundless, as far as my creativity can stretch it . And we havent even gone to nexus yet. Just wait until you see the loading screen . - Charon Edited October 23, 2016 by Charon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentelin Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Thanks ! And I am glad that so much life was breath into X-Division. Basically X-dIvision, has achieved something XNT never did and even has an X:CE programmer to back them up. While, I am coder I didn't contribute much to X:CE, nothing outside of some semi-finished projects, which I never pushed to repo: a) They were buggy as hell b) I simply realised I had bitten more than I could chew, and some required too much effort, plus my knowledge of C++ and experience with it was very limited at the time. That's why I decided to live X:CE to more capable folks (Illunak and whoever comes along, I am so glad Solver got back). However, i plan to get my hands dirty with Xenonauts 2 this time around, because I've been working for past year and half in .Net framework(C#) ,because of job and maybe I get to do some things I always wanted in Xenonauts but never managed. And yeah, I will check dev blog and rest of stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not surprising - the game's code is not particularly easy to work with, and even some seemingly simple changes require a lot of effort. It's not the kind of codebase where people with minimal prior C++ or programming experience could produce results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Dr_D Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 I am getting this error where everytime I shoot at this Ceasean in a baige colored shirt on a scout ship the game crashes. It becomes unresponsive, and I have to hit end task in the task manager. It happened twice. Once with a shotgun and once with a pistol. It begins right before the animation would begin of it getting shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sectiplave Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Just a handful of missions into the game, I've been having a large number of stopped responding errors mainly in battlescape. The AI seems good so far, Caesans are very accurate which is scary early on, and Sebillians are making use of cover more often. The open ship doors seem to function like Vanilla Xenonauts now, with aliens often staying just inside the doors or popping out from time to time to snipe your soldiers, I like it! I attached a save where I was getting some game stopped responding crashes from moving soldier around the map.

Thats an "insert" error on my part with the corpsesprops.xml causing the issue. Although some serious efforts i havent beeen able to track it down yet, in the worst case i have to check every "insert" code line. This issue should be purely visual though, as the corpse is still there and gets counted at the end of the mission, you simply cant carry it around anymore. 11 hours ago, Sectiplave said: Battlescape freeze Random freeze when shooting enemy, force close required.

Can you please clarify on this one. All images you have unlocked appear fine to me with one exception (alien mini shield, which we know about). The freezes are being looked into.

drages Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 (edited) I finished it for 2. time. But you got +Lore mod too which there is no point to use it with our mod. Please try without it. Or it could be a bad download, corrupted install too.. Edited October 24, 2016 by drages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
