Hi i'm also new ,with a problem... every time i start a mission (abandonia version of the game), i get an error report from my windows XP pro (send//don't send).

If i load the game the i can't see any bases... and if i intercept something using the menu the ship appears on the other side of the earth...

How could i fix this ,or can it be fixed at all. :help:

PS: The last poster could try using a "cpu killer" program or something...to slow things down...

1. The game is too fast, when I put the time on 5s, it goes more like 2 minutes a second, the scrolling is too fast, the action is too fast and I'm unable to follow anything. How do you fix it?

You need one of those softwares to slow down your computer to run it. Dunno the name of any of those though...

I discovered a few of these Slowdown Utilities a while ago when browsing some websites on old games. Here are a few that I bookmarked:

CPU Killer - http://www.cpukiller.com/
Mo'Slo - http://www.hpaa.com/moslo/basic.asp
Throttle - http://www.oldskool.org/pc/throttle

There's also a list of Slowdown Utilities at Home of the Underdogs: http://community.the-underdogs.org/pub/tools/slowdown/.

I haven't actually had to use any of these programs before to get a game to run properly, but it will be interesting to see if they do the trick.

Thanks to Abandonia finally got my hands on this game after losing original in a house move.
3 weeks after installing I am now the proud owner of 12 fully powered mind controlling squad members.
I truly believe the funniest thing ever is to mind control an entire Ethereal base, have them all line up AND SHOOT EACH OTHER!!!!
Anyone want the save game?, mail me.
Question, why has this game not been updated by whoever owns it now?
On legend alone it would surely be profitable for them.

projectxenocide has been known for quite a while, metiononed on this very thread..... somewhere...

It has been in the works for quite a while, still though something to look forward to, seems that time and money have been invested so they probably will finish it eventually.

Sounds awesome... i will check it out!
Thankyou

I heard there was an X-Com mod for Doom, but all the links I found lead to the same page, filled with some utter crap and without even a word on X-Com.

Sad.

Any help?

i've just played ufo. when i went down the platform of the shuttle i got banged! headshot, dead. it's the most excellent element in the game, really, it's very exciting! I see why this game has been so popular.

This time I abandoned my game in the very first December. 7 days later I must fight get a fightback.

Corpse :angel:

Alien (David Thompson something like that) :angel: ,
Now I want to cheat.

It's a Doom mod for X-COM, it's a bit odd and not entirely great...

There's a link on the XcomUtil home page.
