Looking For A Little Help With Xp


Recommended Posts

Greetings Gurus,

I have tried some of the things you said to try, but nothing worked. I am a firm believer in user error. Since I have very limited skills when it comes to using my computer. I guess what I am asking for is someone to give me something of a play by play. For the reason I am sure I am doing something wrong. I have the Apoc 3, and I install it as I am suppose to. I then go into the XCOMA folder and make the “Apoc.txt or bat file” which is still a txt document when I go into the property. I am not sure what it’s supposed to do when I change it to a bat file. I went to the various download sites to get what I need to get and it still does not start. Its possible I am not clicking on the right icon. (can someone tell me which one it is?) But as I said before I believe in user error, so I am going to try everything again from scratch. But I expect to come back with my tail between my legs. :boohoo:

Wish me luck

 

One thing I can say is that I am happy to know that I am not alone when it comes to playing the X-com series.

You should run xcom3 through that batch file. If you can't get it to work you can always try DOSbox, check the pinned topics in the xcom1&2 tech support forums (no topic here yet, as xcom3 is not yet guaranteed to work properly that way).

 

edit : good luck :)

OK it worked!! :party:

 

Now i don't have any sound, but i am sure i will get over it. I did not use Dosbox. It was user error i was clicking on the wrong icon and extracted it in the wrong area. :whip: :spank:

 

Now i am on the hunt for instructions and good hints. I am sure its in here somewhere

 

Thanks again

you have installed VDMSound and the VDMSound launchpad, ran setup.exe and entered the correct settings, and are running xcom3 with VDMSound?

 

Take a breath j'ordos, let the poor guy speak! ^_^
