Ratings are calculated using Evan Miller's method (based on a Wilson score confidence interval) that is self-correcting. This means that the % of positive ratings & number of ratings decide a mods position on the top charts. The benefit of this approach is a mod with 2 positive ratings will not outrank one with 10 positive ratings but 2 negative. Nor will a mod with tons of rankings outrank everything unless most of the ratings are positive.
Rating levels
Ratings range from overwhelmingly positive to overwhelmingly negative. The color changes depending where on the scale the mod fits.
Goal: Have you ever wondered from where the authors of TFTD took all those fancy supersonic submarines and underwater tanks? Yes, this is the future (the year 2040, in case you forgot), but it’s not the far future. I mean, we have only 20 years left, and we still don't have any such technology, just like we didn’t have it 28 years ago. Do we? Well, I tried to explain this a bit; and yes, the game became slightly harder.
New content: You’ll find over 90 new weapons and items, new crafts and new craft armaments, a lot of new missions (LORE friendly), and 36+ new units (yours and enemies), as well as many USOpedia topics, and even new maps.
Included mods from other authors: "Extended facilities" by Blank. "Moray" by tyran_nick. "Carharodons" by Xops. Swapped small and very small USO maps, so you don’t need to use an external mod. Included new_civilian's TFTD patch.
Available languages: US English and Russian.
Thanks: to OpenXcom authors for a brilliant game; to Yankes and Meridian for powerful OXCE, to Solarius Scorch for priceless help, to long6oarder for spell checks, to ohartenstein23 for script help, to artbycarlos for great Triton fan art, to new_civilian and the other modders from whom I borrowed something.

This mod kicked my *** and I liked it
It is truly an “expansion”, i.e it feels like a true extension of TFTD and is true to its flavor which is something I really appreciate
Hi all! I'm getting an error saying "Map generator encountered an error: no alien units could be placed on the map." Is there a fix? What would you need to help getting it fixed?
I had to abandon several campaings now because alien bases spawned very close, or in one case, basically directly on my main base. At that point in game, I had no way to shoot down the interceptors they send when you launch a sub. Am I just very unlucky, or is that happening to others, too?
Please add Linux installation steps. I managed to install it by:
Linux:
1) Install OXCE (with original TFTD).
2) Extract "User/Mods/TWoTS" folder to your "~/.local/share/openxcom/mods".
3) Launch the game and activate the mod in menu.
(I did not try to install it /usr/share/openxcom. Also, for Arch Linux Aur.archlinux.org seems to exist, but did not try it as it was out-of-date and did not bother updating the PKGBUILD file locally).
Hey there, I seem to be having a difficult time installing the mod. I Extracted the mods to my desktop and copied the original TFTD Files to the mods TFTD folder. However, whenever I attempt to open OpenXcomExtended, it crashes before the opening scene. What am I doing wrong?

how can i disable UFO Extender accuracy without unistalling this mod? It's not funny when my soldier misses on pointblank range.

Hi Nord, do you have an account in Discord?

Greetings! I think it would be good to add an alternative geoscape, green and more detalized. Luke's Hybrid Globe or something like that.
1
Luke's Hybrid Globe works for XCOM-1, not for TFTD. But if someone adapt it, i'll add this.

Is this not compatible with No Psionics?

It's no real biggie. Had no problems with my other normal selections.
Any plans for a wiki?

Looks like not a mod is crashing, but OXCE itself. Try to download and install clean OXCE, then run it. If it works, then put "user" folder into it.

Nvm, it was just files I had that were uneeded. It works perfectly now, and great mod!
