XCOM Non-English Versions

There are still non-English versions of XCOM in existence that I have never
seen.  In XcomUtil 9.4, I added support for a Spanish version of XCOM 1.0.  In
1998, I added support for an Italian version of TFTD.  If you know of any
non-English XCOM or TFTD versions that are not listed in XcomUtil.txt, please
let me know. I will add support for any others that are found.

For strictly personal reasons, I would like to get a copy of the language
specific parts of any Italian versions of the game, the two files with the
language specific strings.  I only saw the Geoscape of the one I patched back
in 1998.  However, I am now taking Italian classes because my son will be
married in Italy next year and I want to be able to talk to her family.  Having
an Italian XCOM or TFTD would be a painless way to learn a little more Italian.

Shurely tho, phrases like "screams its victims to death," "vestigial sexual
organs" and "titanium exoskeleton" are of limited utility even at an Italian
wedding?

Scott, there was an x-com fan who made two patches that change the French
language packs in both UFO and TFTD to Italian. I don't know how good they
are, as I cannot read Italian, but they were made by a native Italian and I
have not as yet received any complaints about them. If you are interested,
they are here:
