I'm sorry if I'm blind and I'm missing an obvious answer to this.

I've spent somuch time on google and I see people discussing downloading it and using it, I see people talking about pm'ing eachother links for the necessary downloads.. But I can't find a single link myself.

Does this upgrade mod come with tie fighter natively, like the way the freespace 2 mod came with freespace 1 converted to run on the updated FS2 engine?

Or am I just looking in all the wrong places for the files?

Tie fighter was pretty much the most influential game in my entire life and I'm dying to play it again but I can't bring myself to do it knowing that there's a way to re-experience through the beautiful work you guys have done here.

Would someone be able to point me in the right direction? I don't need any handholding, I'm just literally unable to find any information - barely even any confirmation of its existence. But it seemed legit, what I did see, so I figured if anyone would know, they'd be here.

thanks in advance

XWAUP does not contain the The TIE Fighter: Total Conversion (TFTC) project and is just an upgrade of the original XWA. The original TFTC project was initially released in the late 2000's I think, but it subsequently became broken and taken down some years ago. However a new version of this project is currently being worked on by myself and a few others but is not yet released. Hopefully around christmas time or early next year it will be released. You can follow my youtube channel for progress or keep an eye on this thread here:

Thank you Avarice1987,

Unfortunately this is a old mod and I don't think that work again.

I hope in the future will be another conversion.

This is very interesting video !!!

To be honest I prefer XvT to XWA. I hope someone can make this mod compatible with the last update (Dynamic cockpit included).

For the moment I don't have any news about.

Might be worth having a go at this when TFTC is complete, lets see, but don't expect anything until next year :D
