j'ordos Posted November 15, 2003 Report Share Posted November 15, 2003 I don't really remember, but once you send a ship to the alien dimension there should be a new research topic called 'the alien dimension' and once you've done that you could research/enter (dunno?) the first alien building. Once that one's gone you could research the next and then enter it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl. Facehugger Posted November 17, 2003 Report Share Posted November 17, 2003 You must research the alien building in the biochem lab! That will let you enter the building. (ex: research alien building 1 to get into the sleeping chambers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoboUivante Posted November 19, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 the alien dimension topic jas been researched already.. but no alien building 1 to research.. weird... thanks for the replies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoboUivante Posted January 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 i can't advance on the game... and it has been for years now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonaleth Irenicus Posted January 28, 2005 Report Share Posted January 28, 2005 Did yuo send a Dimension Probe to the alien dimension? That should supposedly give you the first alien building in your Biochemistry lab as a project. Other than that... wierd... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outlawstar15a2 Posted April 24, 2006 Report Share Posted April 24, 2006 You must send a probe through first that'll give you the "The Alien Dimension" topic finish that off then send a explorer through and have it land at the building after that you should be able to research that building. I think thats how it goes anyway I don't remember either I'm about to re install apoc from a ripped version and put the music in from the CD I have so I'll be able to help more in a few days.

[NKF] Posted April 24, 2006 Report Share Posted April 24, 2006 The general progression to enable research of alien buildings generally goes along the following lines:- Send an interdimensional ship through to the alien dimension for the first time. Doesn't matter what craft, as long as it gets through. As soon as you enter the alien dimension, head straight for the nearest exit. Don't engage any enemy targets unless you're kitted to the teeth with shields and medium disrupters. Once back in Megaprimus, you'll be able to research the first alien building. Research it. When that is done, the first building will be ready to be attacked. Load up your transport ship and send it through, land at the building and raid or investigate to start the mission. Once you've destroyed the building, head home. The research for the next building will be ready to go once you switch back to Megaprimus. Lather, rince, repeat until you hit the gate generators. - NKF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullet-Tooth Tony Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 In order to start wiping out the Alien City you need to do is the following:1) Build ANY inter-dimensional craft (not necessarily Dimension Probe).2) Send it to Alien Dimension, once you're there, you can go back.3) In the city, do a Quantum Physics research on new available project: "Alien Dimension".4) Once AD is researched, Biochemical project "Alien building" is available - research it.Buildings in AD are connected in a long chain - the last is Dimension Gate Generator, the opposite (first one) in the chain is the one that you can attack, when research of "Alien building" is completed.When building is destroyed, research the next one, and go to destroy it. Repeat this one by one until DG Generator is ruined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diemex Posted September 2, 2006 Report Share Posted September 2, 2006 This guy has patience ! Followup posted - Nov 18 2003, 10:49 PM Two years later still cannot progress - Jan 25 2005, 07:31 PM Hope he's made it past the first building this year !

Aiki-Knight Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 The Alien Ship Building - Be Careful! By the way, don't have your troop-ship lift off immediately when an alien building starts to crash. There's one building - I think the giant alien ship-building centre - that hangs over the entrance. If your ship is lifting off in the tube when the building starts to crash, the building will hit it and shields won't save the ship. In my first X3 game, I lost my entire best-super-trooper platoon that way. The most devastating loss I've ever suffered, and never will it be forgotten. Heed my words! :-) Aiki-Knight.

I lost a squad of 20 I had been carefully cultivating. But I lost them at the 2nd to last building because I thought that was it and I had to get out of the AD myself.

Yoni Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 This is probably far too late to be of any use, but who knows, he was still playing after two years...I'm playing apoc right now, and I'm just at the stage where I'm researching the first alien building.What I had to do was exactly the following: 1) Send a probe to the alien dimension.2) Once there, return immediately3) Research the "alien dimension" topic in the quantum physics lab4) Send another ship to the alien dimension (I used a retaliator but probably any ship will do)5) Again, once there, return immediately6) The first alien building became researchable in the biochemistry lab.
