ok here's my problem....I downloaded x-com total pack ( ufo defense & tftd )...then I found out xcomutil...which I got with total pack...it's automaticlly installed with total pack....I thought great thing...until I try to set it up...:S

 

I opened xcomutil, set up some setting, run it...everything went fine until my first land battle was over...at the end of the battle, at that green screen (sry I forgot how it's called) game freezes...

 

I tred changing the settings in xcomutil, but even with just improved base all is the same...I tried other ufo game edition (gold, collector's edition) but gold edition I coudn't even run (can't make it work)....and complete edition has a blinking screen...I tried disabling directdraw acceleration, I tried combo patch, UFO loader, I upgraded my driver to the lateset, I tried with dosbox...what ever I could find on google, I tried...

 

so here's the problem...

 

When ever I try to set up something besides original game, I get error or game freezes after first battle...

 

And, yes i followed instruction of the installation to the bitter end...

 

I'm running xp professional 5.1, ati radeon card, enough ram memory :D , and I have X-com Total pack V1.8, Gold Edition and Collector's Edition...so plz help

 

p.s. for me all 3 packet are the same, I just want to know how to set up that xcomutil to work :D

First question: Where can you get this? Last time I checked, the only place to buy UFO was on steam, and I don't run windows inside QEMU. (Poor 1.42 G4 :-).

Ok, lets try something. Run xcusetup again, and this time, when prompted for "Do you want to see xcomutil messages after combat", say no. See if that solves anything.

ok I managed to set up UFOLoader...had blinking screen problem...resolved that by shuting down all unnecessary programs...now after 12 hours of pain I'm going to finally enjoy...

 

as for xcomutil I already try that, and it didn't help...I tryed without map changes also it didn't help...read above...with just improved base set to YES it freezes...:S
