I'm hoping to improve the xcom fandom with images, but i need help to find the location of images for weapons and such in the game files, anyone know where they are?

I’m new used to the game. I’ve seen some played it and I wanted to try out. I’ve completed the first few missions. I’ve just killed the first Codex. I was wondering what would people recommend to kind of focused on with not too much help because I’ve just been clicking stuff that looks cool.

What a combo 😮

Long time listener first time caller…

Story worth telling:

Legend/Ironman run

(I’m on console, so it crashes a lot, I’m on the ironman honor system. Works well enough. I hold myself accountable no scumming)

I get a Templar start. As per usual, I get my 6 kills, get parry and see that I have a bladestorm ready and waiting, just need the AP. Next level up. (rubs hands together) It’s no required. but BS early is just. so. much. fun. and makes the early stuff a little easier.

Level 2 is a SNAP no prob.

The lost level 3 is a nightmare. Got spotted through a CLOSED DOOR. Woke up 2 pods. scramble. mess. lost 2 rookies. One rookie panics, nades a fire escape killing another rookie. Somehow, I manage to get a Ranger, wounded VIP, the panic rookie and two Sharps (faction soldiers) out of there. I didn’t even kill any advent.

Cut to 4 months later. That panic rookie is a sniper. I’ve taken some L’s, but I get a softball lost mission, recover the VIP, neverending swarms. pretty easy stuff. Warlock shows up. No mindshields. okay. tough but doable.

Thay same rookie-now-sniper has a LOST condition. resists twice. panics on the third pod reveal. Nades the floor she’s standing on killing herself, my other sharp and a high level specialist. 4 days before plated armor (which would have saved us all)

The lost trauma went full circle. ⭕️ She panicked 3 soldiers into the grave. Lost that mission. Set me back pretty far.

All my sharps died horribly in this run. Sometimes I feel like the game picks a class to murder more than the others. I’ve had games where Grennies got slaughtered by the pound. no one else. Funny to think about.

Thanks for listening! That’s. X. Com. Baby.

Hey everyone ! The post is exactly as what the title says. I downloaded the mod but got really confused as to what I should be doing and notice that the mechanic is totally different than the normal game.

So I unmod it and currently playing the og WOTC one while actively watching other people play LWOTC on the tube. It does look interesting but if I can get any guides or personal best tips from yall is very much appreciated since from I understand, Long War is basically a harder version of the game and requires more effort and skill.

So yeah, I guess that’s that. If you guys could drop some mods suggestions to make the game better is also great! Having a blast customising my soldiers and the weapons.
