Think I missed something, or I forgot where it was,

The heck happened to map designer? Loved making my own maps for friends and I to play and mess around in. Now the final version has the massive big bummer of "Map designer is not supported in STA3"

Why? Worked with older versions just fine.

Unless ya call it another, bigger version of the Macro phage from voyager lol.

While quite late.... there is? If there is I'm blind because its a real pain to find mods that work and disable them at least on the steam version.

"Nevertheless, there's always room for improvement and for the faster-paced gameplay" why? Why must every game 'progress' to faster paced game play? Some of us like slower paced matches and games.

I think its a way for the star trek writers to try and tie a reason into the universes lore to why they all look largely the same, just with a few cosmetic differences and such largely.

The thickness of plot armor the federation or anyone would need then to stand up to the borg would be thicker then all the star trek scripts the actors read from all the series lol.

Borg founders..... lets not imagine the implications if they do assimilate one

But then they run the risk of the borg assimilating it then the alpha quadrant would have much bigger problems in ship combat with them.

"Pride comes before the fall."

Tried the /gosnojoystick fix. Working now. Though the games showing as opening on my nvidia card not the intergrated...

So.... guessing I'm just hooped then?

Already have a newer version apparently.

Got the download, installed it, tried to open it, all it does is give me a small black window for about 2 milli seconds then closes. Tried compatibility, running as admin, telling it to run on my other vid card, playing with my desktop res, nothing worked. Most I could do is make the window stay for about a second before it just says nope and closes.

Running 8.1
Nvidia and intergrated grabix cards (please tell me the duel vid card thing is not the problem)

Now to waiting for someone to do what MS should do and make it work with better available windows instead of strictly win 10.

I was suprized my Ambassador with 15 sabers was nearly defeated by a small milia fleet with a milia battle cruiser that was only 6-7 ships.
No other race was this ever the case with starting caps.

Had a game where I was the feds, and a neutral borg cube spawned. Ran the Defiant by and deployed the replicating mines, it did tractor him so I hit it with my fleet to divert its attention, it captured voyager oddly (that a bug?) but my plan worked. took a while, but the cube fell to the mines constantly exploding on it.

Always erked me, in voyager the borg are seen using entire fleets of cubes to assimilate worlds. Yet when going up against the feds, they send only.... one cube? With the exit point in side of earth, the borg would have no trouble at all sending a fleet of cubes and shoving the fed ships to the side like bugs to a fly swatter.

Quick question, does this use the rng system? Like when something says its not that effective, does that mean the ship will strangely miss for unknown reasons with its phazors?

Watching the shows and about the only time a ship missed was when targeting a fast shuttle class largely.

Only reason they made halo 2 was to promote windows vista, now they talk of making halo wars 2 for pc but only win 10 exclusive (like vista and halo 2 for PC) notice something off?

Main questions

Able to run fine on win 8 pc?
Able to base build and design your own base layout?

As long as the weapons do not aim based on the crappy HW2 RNG engine then looks very promising.

PM sent

I'm not changing it

Here's what keeps happening.

I install the mod, patches everything through the launcher.

It extracts to the right location with in steam's directory's

It says it succuessfully installs and such.

The start button however does not work still.

I run compatibility check and everything shows as ok besides shader and mod directory

Shader is easily fixed but mod directory reads as not clean.

I tell it to fix this and it asks for peromission to delete the mod.

I tell the launcher to update, it finds the updates and attempts to 'extract' them but for some reason failing to do so.

I check directory my self and find the data folder is missing entirely, and the check says the mod is not there.

I manuelly extract the patches. Launcher detects mod again, but says the mod directory is not clean. As well as still fails to launch unless I use the steam launch system with sweaw MODPATH=Mods/Stargate

As long as I rename the AI folder to the PERCEPTUALEQUATIONS everything seems to be in order for space battles though wave and ground either are not there or ground battles are plain broken.

This is all happening after a complete deletion of the game directory and reinstall of the game (with steam) and redownloading the launcher and patches. No change. And yes Launcher is opened with admin permissions

After playing around with it, found out its not reinstalling its self I have to do that manuelly, however if the mod does get installed it insists the mod directory is not clean. telling it to fix that means it deletes its self, asks to extract the patches again (I tell them to extract to the mods stargate directory though the window just poofs) and then the launcher says the mod no longer is even there.

I'm going to redownload the launcher wondering if it some how broke for me. Making no sense.

Odd, ok so it says shaders are not installed, and the mod directory is not clean even though all there is in there is the stargate mod. I told it to fix both, it says it did, but the launcher still does not open the game and when I went back into compadibility check it said the same 2 things needed fixing.

Edit can't even click the fix buttons anymore

Yeah the launchers did update but its start button just blinks if I click it nothing else even with admin or win xp compatibility ect. I tried the link again for manuel instillation in FAQ 3.2 second link (I assume that's where to go for finding the .bat file?) but keep getting error 404

I have figured out how to open it with the steam launcher using the launch settings but even with a fresh install no change.

Ok another issue, I've tried some of my own trouble shooting and learned that I can't locate stargate.bat anywhere, not in the instillation directory or in the mod files. As a result I'm unable to run the mod at all. I looked in the FAQ links and one for getting it to run manuelly is broken, and could not find anything like how to make or where to download the bat file (I'm sure the missing bat file is why the mod is not launching?)

Ah that would do it. Alrighty thanks for the speedy replies :)

Found some stargate atlantis episodes on youtube and kind got a 'starget' itch when they took the vids down. then learn the atlantis ones are all regin locked for free viewing to the US >.<

Though, gotta ask, I'm downloading at a 150 ish Kb speed..... I can get steam and my browser downloading at 3 megs steady, why is it so slow? Busy servers?

Ok nvm, I had forgotten to clear out the old directory before reinstalling. Fixed now. Updater working now too.
