Issues fixed

X-COM asks for CD

The Steam version sometimes asks you to insert the CD into the drive. When it does so, the game can't be resumed.

Possible fixes include:

  • Extracting folders from cd.iso and placing them in the X-Com folder.[1]
  • Using a later version of DOSBox (0.74, Steam uses 0.72). Easiest way is to copy the DOSBox.exe into the x-com apocalypse SteamApps folder and rename to 'dosbox.exe'
