TIE Fighter: Total Conversion (TFTC) mod for Star Wars: X-Wing Alliance

The TIE Fighter Total Conversion (TFTC) project ports the original classic 1994 LucasArts game TIE Fighter, into the 1999 X-Wing Alliance (XWA) engine. Based on the original TFTC from 2005 and built upon the X-Wing Alliance Upgrade (XWAU) project, this is a complete overhaul of the game from graphics to gameplay. All 13 battle campaigns and their training missions have been ported over along with 8 Reimagined battle campaigns, taking advantage of the much better XWA engine and imagining how TIE Fighter could've been had the technology of the time not limited it. But here's a general breakdown of what you can expect from this mod!

• A full port of all the Classic TIE Fighter Battles 1-13, including the expansions Defender of the Empire and Enemies of the Empire - a total of 76 campaign missions + the 28 original Training missions and even the original Demo mission! This includes all the original voiceovers and cutscenes. TFTC Classic aims to replicate the original game as closely as we can which include various gameplay changes. You can see a comparison of changes vs Reimagined by clicking here.
• A Reimagined campaign of Battles 1-8 of TIE Fighter. These take the original missions, expands upon them for more ships, bigger battles or in some cases, completely build new missions out of them but retaining the same overall narrative and story points of the original Classic. This campaign includes 39 fully playable campaign missions + 4 updated training scenarios. Battles 9-13 of TFTC Reimagined will be completed sometime in 2023. TFTC Reimagined also uses most of the standard XWA gameplay mechanics whereas Classic does not. You can see a comparison of changes vs Reimagined by clicking here.
• That's a total of 148 unique missions between both the Classic and Reimagined versions!
• Enjoy the amazing updated visuals for the X-Wing Alliance engine made possible by the X-Wing Alliance Upgrade project (XWAU), bringing this 23 year old game into the modern era of graphics.
• VR Support, again thanks to the XWAU project.
• A fully remastered TIE Fighter soundtrack or load up one of three original MIDI Soundtracks (Roland SC-55, Gravis Ultrasound or Sound Blaster AWE32)
• Rank up, collect memorabilia and earn medals in your pilot room as you progress. Don't forget to check your e-mails too!
• Join the Secret Order of the Emperor as you play through and rank up those tattoos just like the original.

Mod and System Prerequisites

• A copy of the game X-Wing Alliance (XWA):
  XWA on GoG
  XWA on Steam
  XWA on Origin
• The original CD version of X-Wing Alliance will also work but requires an additional installation step.
• Installation of the X-Wing Alliance Upgrade (XWAU) mod which also has a ModDB page.
• Your system must be running Windows 10 or higher. Windows 7 and 8 are not supported anymore.
• An Nvidia or AMD based GPU is required. Intel GPUs are not supported.
• At least 50GB of free space on your C: Drive if you are installing the game and mod to this location. If you intend to install to a separate storage drive, you will still need at least 25GB of free space on your C: Drive. This is because the installer uses the Windows Temp folder to extract the contents which by default is located on the C: Drive. As it is common practice nowadays for small SSDs to be used as C: Drives. You can check out this guide on how to move the Windows Temp folder if you are short on space still.

Make sure to watch the Installation Tutorial video for full details and step by step instructions on installing TFTC.
