Latest updates for X3: Albion Prelude and X3: Terran Conflict - Updated 2017-12-07

Thanks! Just downloaded!

EDIT: After the TC patch installation and overwriting x3ap.exe the AP launcher tells me I've got an incorrect version of the exe. My savegame was loaded without any errors though... Should I tweak something else?

EDIT2: Never mind, got infos from the other sticky post, copied all the new \addon files from my updated steam installation and error dialog is gone.

Make sure that both games, X3TC and X3AP, are updated by Steam. Additionally, if you use the NoSteam.exe make to sure to download the updated version from here.

Yup, atm there's no specific AP patch for nonsteam installations in download section, guessed the TC offline patch could update AP files too but it didn't.
There are some changes in \addon folder too so I've fixed it as per my EDIT2 in my previous post.

Thanks again.

Well my great new X3 AP w/Terran War Pack got delivered today.
(Note that pretty black oval that checkmark is in )

But before I even TRY to load it up I foresee an issue (Or is it)

The shipped version is 2.0. The No Steam executable is 3.3?

Is going to work? No my desktop is without internet connection.
Even if it wasn't Steam and I have some professional issues.
I'd chop off my arm before logging in with them.
Any way to upgrade my copy to UNSTEAM-O-FY it?

Any disc version of the Terran War pack is bound to Steam, and thus requires Steam to be installed and updated. Once the game is installed using Steam (Steam always automatically installs the latest version), you can copy the whole X3 Terran Conflict Steam folder (including the X3AP "addon" folder) elsewhere (for example by using a USB stick from your computer with internet access to the one without) and run the game(s) by using the NoSteam.exe for X3AP or the X3TC.exe from the latest X3TC retail patch for X3TC, which you can find in our downloads section.

Wish I'd read more of the posts boss. Well my internet connection to my desktop should be up in (?) So I'll HAVE to wait tell then
(sound of knuckles cracking) . "Here little program..."

A further update has been released for both games. See the initial post in this thread.

The funny thing is I've been playing X3AP v3.3 on Windows for a while now, but I was just now trying to move my saves over to a Linux machine, only to notice the GOG Linux installers are still on v3.1a. Any chance we'll see this latest version for Linux on GOG?

I noticed when going back to TC for the first time in a while that it does support ultrawide in fullscreen, but not fullscreen windowed. Obviously these games are never being patched again, but does anyone know if there's an ini I can add resolutions to or some other workaround?

Fullscreen actually seems to be very stable so far, but for some reason fullscreen windowed always feels less crash-prone to me, so I'd prefer to use that if possible.

you can edit the res.dat file to add custom resolutions to use.

also, FL makes some improvements to ultrawide and triple monitor support

Awesome, thank you!

Part of me really wants to move on to AP/FL for the quality of life stuff but I'm kinda trying to do everything in TC first just to get as much enjoyment from this incredible series as I can.
