TFTD intro

Hi!
I knew that there are 2 versions of TFTD - fdd and cd. I thought that
there's no difference beetween them, but I was wrong. I have read recently
that intro in cd version is fully animated, not just the slideshow. 
I don't know if all intro is in one file intro.exe as it was in
Ufo:Defense, if so, maybe some of You could send it to me? I'd be
indebted.

best regards
mako

Yah, it is animated, the pilot of the submersible gets out to investigate
the sunken ship etc.

Sigh, BRING BACK XCOM, damn it!!

I don't have the original cd version, but I believe there were 2 files,
intro.idx & intro.vid in the anims folder with the later released version.
Try searching Terror From The Deep on Kazaa or on the gnutella network with
Shareaza, Limewire, or Gnucleus for the Gold edition.
You may also need the patch for Direct Draw to get it to run correctly.
