Everyone is talking about the Federation envoy so I think I'll throw in my 2 cents for the other races.... Romulans... might have to go non-cannon on this one, but perhaps it should have an enhanced reactor to allow it to stay cloaked for slightly longer than any other ship as one of its abilities... the Rommies always like to sneak around behind their cloaks and spy, might work well for them to have a ship of this type. Klingons... we all know the Klingons aren't exactly know

[quote who="psychoak" reply="719" id="2357357"]It's been mentioned that they screwed the pooch on torpedo damage. The fed ships have higher missile values than their counter-parts, that would explain the Excelsior and Akira issue. Both of those ships have particularly high torpedo attacks than their klingon counter-parts, despite being significantly weaker in raw numbers. The Akira has an ungodly 4400, stock value. After all the upgrades, you're looking at a one shot s
dairaton: Although I have no work on the mod whatsoever, I would advise deleting everyting and anything related to the SOA mod in your sins directory and then download and install the mod again.... (hell windows is an odd thing.... and sometimes a fresh install will fix all the problems :) edit: also go to Nvidia's website and install the latest drivers for your video card..... this may also be the cause of your issue.
[quote who="Major Stress" reply="682" id="2355745"]So far the biggest bugs are: Oh as for the game showing victory early... The AI surrenders if it knows it is impossible to defeat you. This saves you from the grind of having to kill every unit, and taking over every planet. This is a feature. Not a bug. [/quote] Ahhh good idea... however if you choose to grind it out would the AI still try to fight you? I haven't bothered trying that yet as I figured th
When you folks play online do you usually play locked teams or do it up RISK style and ally with each other then stab one another in the back lol :P
Some may kill me for giving this idea (hell I still love the glory days of TOS and have a model of the Enterprise-A somewhere) but as far as this mod goes, perhaps replacing the Constitution class starship with the Oberth class scout would be a good idea? Oberth could act as both a colonizer and a scout... as of right now the Constitution is little more than nestalgic in nature since the Curry class now colonizes.
If I have ideas/suggestions for say research tree tech or special abilities etc etc etc should I pm someone or just post it here anyways? Going to try a new game now vs harder AI.... wish me luck :P
Have been following this mod for ages but haven't said too much in quite some time... At the risk of repeating everyone else, many many thanks and great work so far to the mod team and anyone involved... just played a match vs the Klingons and it was fun! That being said I had a curious problem arrise... played 1 vs 1 AI Normal Random setting and I ended up after building a small fleet, finding a Klingon outpost. It was virtually an empty system.... with a trade port. I killed
[quote who="OooOoOn" reply="1" id="1876686"]I have followed the install instructions precicely, and when I try to enable the mod, I get the filedump error and the game crashes. Ive read through the posts but I havent been able to find any solution to this problem which appearently, I am not the only one having it. Any solution that I might have missed? I AM positive that I made a clean install and patched the game to 1.05 AND everything checks out in th
Question for Stress... if I was interested in adding music to your mod on my computer (IE Klingon themes, Romulan themes ETC...) how would I go about doing it? (If you don't mind me doing it... just wanted some better Klingon tunes when I'm blowing the crap out of everything else around me :P
Just wanted to post that I had a multiplayer game of the mod and it worked almost perfectly. Myself and my friend played as the Feds, and another friend took the Klingons and we fought 3V3 vs the Breen, Dominion and Cardys. The Breen were irritating but my friend and I managed to make short work out of them. The Cardys, although having a large fleet by the time we attacked, were a total push over, however the Dominion put up a decent fight. We only played it on Normal difficul
No worries... i think there might be a problem with downloading the mod on my machine (something on my end) but I got to a work around and as i said, things are A-OK :)
OK at the risk of annoying everyone here, everything works now! Dont know why I had issues with downloading it directly... but what matters most is things are working perfectly now... once agian, Stress and team, wonderful work here! Keep it up!!
Ok as a follow up, I downloaded it fine to my gf's computer (XP) and am going to transfer the files to a memory stick and copy them onto my computer. Dont know why mine was having such a problem with the archive but hopefully I can get this working :)
No download accelerator... running everything on a fresh Vista 32 Home Premium install here. The first original beta mod downloaded fine, although it wouldn't run (gave me a mini-dump anytime i tried to load the mod in SINS 1.05 also fresh install) File size is 145,575,834 bytes (138MB) and I just downloaded it again one more time and tried it to no avail.
New archive corrupted? I've tried downloading the SoA_2_Demo_001b 3 times now and every time I try to extract the file, it gets about 10% or so done and then winzip "stops working" (I love Vista :P) I also tried just the standard extractor that vista has and it also crashed at the same moment.
[quote who="British-Rage" reply="22" id="1857839"] That's strange, my Vista runs it fine and it has lower specs that yoursLike Spartan said above, it's probably either a setup issue or a corrupt file[/quote] Would you be kind enough to fill me in on the settings you are using to run sins? (IE resolution and graphic detail levels) I will match them and see if that has any effect :)
Not sure if this has been posted yet or not... or if you want bug reports here :P Got the mod to work A-OK on my GF's computer (it runs Windows XP) However on mine, a problem comes up. Recently got a new machine going and it runs Vista 32 Home Premium specs are as follows: Asus Rampage Formula Motherboard Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 3.0GHz processor Mushkin Ascent PC2-8500 4GB ram EVGA nVidia GeForce 9800GTX+ 512MB graphics Seagate
