alien officers?

If you've switched to the Commmunity Edition on Steam, then you also get the X:CE mods automatically. That is why I say Steam is easier, you don't have a separate package to install.

In the game launcher, you can go to Modding Tools, and you should see a whole bunch of mods that X:CE bundles.

Thank you Chris. I have it on Steam now. I am trying to figure out how to get the mod pak installed. Solver said it is easier but I can't do it.  Steam has upgrades automatically but not mods. Any help anybody?

If you have steam the necessary XCE mod pack gets included in the download. You only have to activate or deactivate them in the modlauncher.

If you specifically looking for mods i recommend that you first try XCE and after that you can play other mods. X-Division is the biggest and most up to date mod for that.

I have ce 1.65 on Steam. In the mod tools there is only Skitso ultimate maps mod 2000. This is activated. There is nothing else there. This is all I got from Steam!!!

There is no CE 1.65. If the launcher says 1.65, you didn't switch to the Community Edition. If you switch to the Community branch on Steam, the Launcher should say it's Community Edition 0.34.1.

XCE 0.34.1

• Either change your steam version to XCE under "Properties" "Beta" for steam or download the official version from the forum.

Right click to Xenonauts at library, then properties. Choose Betas and then XCE.. the game will get an update and u will have the real XCE.

[garyg]

Thank you.  When I got to the betas and clicked xce a' beta access code to unlock private betas' is required. Where do I get that?

[Solver]

It is not required. Just select the community edition there and click OK.

[garyg]

The only buttons to click are 'check code' and 'close'. If there is nothing in the code area nothing happens when you click the button. clicking close, of course, closes the window and you are back to start.  There is no 'ok' button. I looked carefully.

[garyg]

Well,  I downloaded xeno again from Steam and this time all the mods were automatically present. However I cannot load a saved game, just get a 'runtime error'.   It seems that I can start the game over and it will work though. Hate to start over after all my blood, sweat, and tears but it seems I have no choice. Thanks for trying to help.

[Solver]

Sounds like a serious version mismatch somewhere along the road, you should normally be able to load any saved game.

You could try uploading your savegame file here, then I can take a look.

[garyg]

Have no idea how to upload anything. Thanks for all your help.

Just start a new game and experience all the XCE and its mods will provide. It's the best..

[garyg]

Yep, just did that. Looking good. The aliens seem to have gotten smarter too. 2 of my team were killed by Caesan non-combatants!!!!  Ouch!
