X-Division aircombat transfer to another mod?

[Echelon117]

So guys im wondering and if any of the xdivision creators can chime in at all, I absolutely love the mod and the increased difficulty of the UFOs, I wanted a break from xdivision for now and felt like returning to its vanilla-ish roots with maybe the  Xpansion Pack mod, but air combat is easy its just silly. Is there a way I can select a few certain files and add them into the XXP mod and have that same increased air combat?

In short, its impossible. You would need the experience of a developer to merge 2 games, because the files which spawn which UFO are as integrated into the game as the bones in a human body, and it wouldnt even be worth the hassle.

That is, if XXP even allows you to do that. XXP has silly code dependencies on the Fix Pack, breaking all other aircraft adding mods on top of it irreversibly. In short, its bad code, and you should stay away from it. You can still play it though.

If you really want to have a good break from X-Division i suggest XNT, although i have no clue if that even works to begin with.

That was fast thanks! All good I understand, I didnt think it would be as easy as swapping a file or two. Just curious, hows the mod coming along? It feels complete to me besides the occasional xenopedia entry

Here are the upcoming changes for the next version. I think its far from complete if you know what you can change :

Caesan: 22
Wraith: 30
Xenomorph: 40 ( good nose )

Sebillian: 20
Harridan: 30
Reaper: 40 ( good nose )

Androns: 24
Drones: 30
Robodog/Roborex/Roboreaper: 40 ( good mechanical nose )
