Yep, after long time the new developer Blade FireLight released a new version of X-Com Util. Here is Changelog:
* Major overhall of the installer (XcuSetup) and the inclusion of 16/32bit exe's to support both DOSBox and Windows Vista/7 x64.
* New subfolders added to hold supporting files making the install c leaner
* New XcuSetup options were added to XcuSetup allowing for silent install and uninstallation.
* New XcuSetup option for debugging the install (XcuSetup debug) creating debug.txt.
* XcuSetup now can have minimal impact on the game.
o All options default to NO.
o Almost all changes are now prompted for (skyranger guns, interceptor as transport, Disjointed Base Bug, etc...).
+ Items still done by default:
+ Copy protection questions set to 0000000 for UFO 1.0-1.3 and X-Com 1.0
+ Difficulty bug fixed in UFO 1.0-1.4 and X-Com 1.0-1.4
+ Unique names for all maps in TFTD, Used for Hybrid Games
* XCOMUTIL.CFG is now pieced together and overwritten by XcuSetup (see XcomUtil.txt for how to make permanent changes).
* All game files are restored to the pre-XcomUtil state each time XcuSetup is ran. Any modifications by other utilities will have to be re-applied.
* Recovery of MIA soldiers has been removed as it had a habit of resurrecting all KIA units to.
* Vista/Win7 patch now an option for XcuSetup.
o This will fix the blank screen issue.
o Updated to support the split EXE.
* XcuSetup attempts to fix UAC issues by resetting folder permissions.
* A number of community made fixes are included and selectable with XcuSetup.
* Support for the DOS/Window STEAM Install.
o Windows EXE, just run XcuSetup from windows
o to launch Dos version from Steam Run XcomUtil/SteamSetup.bat to activate menu then lauch from steam.
* Out of the box support for UFO Extender. XcuSetup will detect it and ask if you want RunXcom to use it.
Good reason to replay EU/TFTD again LP will follow soon.
