Get a hyperwave decoder ASAP

Without one UFO's may be able to sneak past your radar.

Hyperwave Decoders detect any UFO automatically in its range (same as large radar i think).

If you dont have the technology yet, build more large radars if you can afford it.

The game seems to run fine on my xp windows pc, till i get into missions. Is there anyway of significantly reducing the scroll speed in the missions? Even on the lowest setting i end up flicking from one side of the map to the other, it is most infuriating

Thanks in advance :bye:

Settings screen. One of the icons on the panel, just can't recall the exact one (I think it was the question mark).

I have put it to the lowest setting already but it makes no difference I was wondering if there is any file i can alter to effect scroll speed in game?

Nope. You could try getting a slowdown application or using the DOS version with DOSBox.

I had this problem and it turned out that when I unzipped it it decided not to extract some of the save files (among others).
I just unzipped it again and it works fine.
Shouldn't have anything to do with the OS as I had the same problem and solution on 3 different OS.
Hope it helps k:

I also had this problem... however, it didn't happen to the version I download from the Home of the Underdogs (which also contains a file xcom1fix.exe). So I suggest you download this game from that site.
