Birth of the Federation

hi cl10k, Read through this topic https://www.armadafleetcommand.com/onscreen/botf/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2441&sid=977c69a0bbfadf3db74210dca710dac5 It's creator, quasardonkey, is working diligently on giving BotF a much needed facelift. I'm sure any experience you might have would be welcomed b...

Sounds impressive QD.... despite only understanding about 30% of it LOL... although better than 10% this time last year :wink: I am very eager to learn some C++ to help with this project... the more involved and keeping the steam going, the faster it will get "done" In the meantime any oth...

I am definitely interested in learning new tricks so you can sign me up completely. Of course I do have two main reservations... 1.) I know nothing of coding except the hex edit I taught myself once I started modding BotF and I can read ASM a very little... I know what Java is, C++ etc but if I were...

Some more and we can open up a course.

Where do I sign up

And also as a sidenote... will this exe allow us to add 24 or 32 bit image files and also expand quality to jpeg and/or png files? QD you said UE could still be allowed for editing and DCER may hate my suggestion here but is it possible?

OK I'll add my 1 1/2 cents (rounded down for inflation). For starters it would be neat to get a Command ship multiplier involved in the auto combat formula and to possibly make each training level as a percent modifier for both offense and defense and these two factors could determine bonuses to att...

that's good to know... Fluids tourney back on track then

As far as the NX-01 and TOS Enterprise check them out here https://www.armadafleetcommand.com/botf/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=5 you can add the models with DCER's Ultimate editor (check DCER's sig for download via 4shared) or you could play the All the Ages mod which ha...

Welcome kirk1827, OK so in answer to your questions: To get minor races ships must I wait for them to advance enough, must I wait for them to have a shipyard, or is it random that I can or cannot build them. You must wait until either the minor advances enough or you have researched the prerequisite...

This sounds fantastic! A BotF with the source code readily available... man how dreams can come true for a geek like me. Of course as anjel has stated we are all here to offer support and encouragement for you QD good luck with this project. As for me I'm just gonna start throwing slips of latinum a...

Yes definitely looking forward to seeing you again outerexodus. Good luck. It would be nice to get at least one a year going with a bunch of people to make at least another set of brackets. Maybe next one we can resurrect the TMPM (Thunderchero's Multiplayer mod) since it has some more up to date ch...

so how's tourney progessing so far? any news before the weekend?

Still waiting to finish round 1 right now. Outerexodus and Praetorian have conflicting times atm but I'm sure this weekend the tourney can progress

Here is the pic from our tourney match RF (Cards) vs me (Roms)... sorry for the delay I decided to reformat my computer :) https://i1222.photobucket.com/albums/dd495/templar10/tourney_battles.jpg As you can see RF outnumbered me 2-1 (fighting those damn Klingons was rough) I managed to take out 3/4 ...

Always a pleasure to get beaten by you RF. It was a fun game for sure. :) Some ...
