You finished it already? In how much time?

Anyone managed to copy over the FLT release files over the legit Steam version? I Dled the the cracked version to play it until my legal Steam version from GetGamesGo unlocked today.

The problem is, now Steam wants to download the 13GB again. I've tried the usual way of restoring games in Steam, copying over all the content from the FLT release to the XCOM folder inside "steamapps\common" or "steamapps\downloading\200510", then making steam verify the game cache but it seems to not recognize any file as proper and already downloaded -.-

Any suggestions? I could really save a lot of time and bandwidth if i could make it work.


got the same q actually, anyone did it?

Damn, I guess that means it's only unlocked for those that had it activated prior to the region change. Ah well.. it's not like I've got £10 floating around anyhow Sad

I've read somewhere that this could work:
Quote:
Uninstall the game, then copy the content to the common folder, then install the game in the Steam UI.
Installing then copying then verifying won't work.


Steam should check the files and then download whatever it's missing from the FLT version.

But since i'm already at 86% of the Steam redownload i will just let it finish and won't try this method. Maybe you can try it and tell us if it works or not.

Has anyone seen the patch in the grapevine?

I'd definately like to see the cinematics in high res, if the patch does indeed do that.

They are 1080p by default, I mentioned that earlier. Smile
(No idea why they enforced it, I guess it played in 720 scaled down in certain resolutions.)

As it's just below 4 GB it's a bit big for me to manage, nearly everything but the movie files and some config/ini files were changed. Smile

The files are available by 3DM and Ali213 I believe. Smile

EDIT: No, I was wrong, that was a Chinese repack of the game.

Meh! 4 GBs for a simple little patch like that? I don't think so. I'll skip that one. I'm not having any problems with the current version anyway.

1.8 GB of data was downloaded by Steam which is still quite a lot however as it's UE3 and entire files get replaced the actual download size if one were to pack all of these up would be around 3.6 - 3.8 GB depending on compression possibilities.
(Game is 8 GB movies - wasn't updated - and just above 4 GB game data so it's nearly everything but some minor files like I mentioned.)

Unsure if there's a way to improve this, as I see it UE3 isn't very user friendly with patches though it's probably easy for the developers to implement changes as they "cook" the game data or what that packing process was called. Very Happy
(Steam simplifies things a lot of course and this new content format is proving to be really good.)

Why is it that when I've issued a move order, and both the soldier moving and a new pack of enemies spot each other at the same time, the enemies get to instantly choose where they'd like to move, yet my soldier is forced to go to his originally selected location? That, the godawful camera and UI (with no field of vision/fire cones - how is this acceptable in any way?!), and the totally meaningless hit chance readout have made this far more of a hassle than it's worth.

friendly fire doesnt seem to happen, even if if you plasma bolt bounces back of the skull of a friendly alien or squadmate in front of you Sad

i fondly remember aliens blowing each other up back in 1994, in my first mission one alien shot another alien in the face , the plasma burst dissapeared in his head , nothing happened and two seconds later my game crashed

Friendly fire does happen. When a highly trained, best of the best, elite soldier panics, quite often his reaction is to turn around and unload into his fellow squad mate not 10 feet away, which, ironically, is the only one who can help him in that situation. Great logic Firaxis! Very Happy

ah yes the panic , forgot about that horrible feature, they always shoot something, in the old game they panicked they just dropped their gun or something, rarely did a soldier go berserk and shoot all his ammo ( had it happen to a blasterbomber, lol it was a bad day Very Happy)

another gripe i have is this double movement the aliens get, i see red bars in the fog of war move to me one turn, then in that same turn, i spot them visually and then they get to move again ... dafuck

I shit you not, I just came here to post the same thing. I just lost three Colonels, 2 LTs and one Squaiddie to a bunch of Heavy Floaters, Heavy Mutons, Etheral Commander and a fucking Sectopod. What a clusterfuck. Sad
