Armada Fleet Command

Hi all its been a while. I've pretty much stopped playing A1 now because my graphics card (256mb geforce 5700 LE) is too fast for it and it just screws it up. I was wondering if there have been any sorts of developments that enhance the game so that it taxes modern graphics cards enough for it to be...

cheers map @pepperman i did dl the oldest driver for the card but it didnt seem to have any effect. my next attempt will be to find out if there is an adapter for the monitor connection that will allow me to fit my old comps GC (which worked fine with a1) and have the 1 monitor connected to both, ho...

hi guys i've never really been a fan of A2, i much prefered the style of A1. however i have a new machine with a graphics card that is too new to fully support A1 (it will run the game but very very slowly, it took 30 whole seconds for a torp from the enterprise to hit a vessel just 2 squares away!)...

the mod you mention is called the galactic wars mod and its the fed galaxy class fires a wormhole weapon. however the problem with this is that once created the wormhole is permenant and so after a while the map is littered with wormholes. it is possible to just add the borg portal to a ship and it ...

damn! ah well thanks for the info mate

how do i 'roll back' the drivers and what effect will that have on the computer outside of the game? also the computer in question is not connected to the net, it is my own computer and the only access i have to the net is via my mothers computer. does that complicate matters?

cheers

Hi guys i've been dreading this since the moment i bought my new comp... A1 dont work properly on it. i can play the game but everything is super slow (ie it takes 5 seconds for the shield impact anim to play through, ships move so slowly they appear to be stationary and i could paint a self portrai...

now i've been trying to get fighters in a1 as a special weapon for ages (mainly trying to use the wormhole maker weapon) but no luck. i hate having to build them in a yard and having them clog up a fleet selection (only 8 vessels can be highlighted at any 1 time and i'd rather that be just the cap s...

i'm up for a bit of playtesting rob_t_wil@hotmail.com

cheers twitch, never thought about altering the weapon classlabel. though from my experience it does just tend to crash the game. i'l give it a go though. @corbo i'm not a fan of a2, i find the whole depth thing anoying. are you saying the 8472 weapon will work in a1? i've been toying with this idea...

I asked this a while back in a related thread but i seen to have lost it so i'l begin again. i have been fiddleing with the wormhole maker weapon for a1 to attempt to make a temporary wormhole, it did not work. then i had the idea of using the weapon to create fighters from the host vessel. i tried ...

after a night of testing i have to agree with QH, is tried loads of things, other nebulas, asteroids, vessels. most just appear and are perminent but i couldnt even get the vessels to work, desktop crash each and every time. i really wish Activision would give up the source code for a1, these little...

yeah i'l do that when i got a few minutes cheers straxus. as for your jumpgate, as i remember, it is based on the stock transwarp weapon for the borg correct? well i've noticed that this has 'animation' (ie the little green glowing thingy) when the vessel dissapears. the vessel then appears at the d...

yeah that commands in the 3rd odf for the ionstorm weapon, it was set to 10sec so i just cut and pasted it over to the odf for the 'artificial wormhole' (i.e. 3rd odf of the weapon) and tried it out. nothing the wormholes were as permanent as ever.

thanks anyways achilles

anyone else?

come on guys someones gotta have a clue what i'm on about. i'm trying to make a weapon along the lines of the ionstorm weapon but instead of the red cloud i want it to lay a wormhole that disappears after 10 seconds just like the ion cloud.

please! anybody?
