Im teaching myself graphics and c# / Java. I hope to be able to design my own games one day both online and offline :) I mod ST Armada at the mo. ----------------------------------- MattMan Wed Dec 01, 2004 10:39 am Re: Online Games Needed ----------------------------------- 1 or 2 always looking for new mods for the games don't play Armada 1 much coz me computer is to good for it or it maybe coz i have XP not shore what one but tell use if u get one done ----------------------------------- Guest Wed Dec 01, 2004 10:43 am Re: Online Games Needed ----------------------------------- I know how to get armada to work 100% ok on xp. worked it all out.

The Armada Version you have is it 1.2 ----------------------------------- MattMan Wed Dec 01, 2004 11:39 am Re: Online Games Needed ----------------------------------- well its not installed at the mo coz it don't work. so i guess it would be the 1.0 version ----------------------------------- Guest Wed Dec 01, 2004 12:34 pm Re: Online Games Needed ----------------------------------- Get out the disk and put it in your drive. When it autoruns close it down. Then go to My Computer and right click on the drive you placed the disk in and selets explore. Go through the folders untill you find anet.ini. Click on that and it will tell you what version you have. 1.0 1.1 1.2 If it is an explosive box i can tell you right away that it is version 1.2 ----------------------------------- MattMan Wed Dec 01, 2004 12:38 pm Re: Online Games Needed ----------------------------------- i will have a look as soon as i get home 2night ----------------------------------- Guest Wed Dec 01, 2004 12:55 pm Re: Online Games Needed ----------------------------------- cool. Let me know. ----------------------------------- Victory Wed Dec 01, 2004 3:23 pm Re: Online Games Needed ----------------------------------- there's an easier way to do it, and it'll work with any version. When you have the game installed, right click on the .exe file used to start the game, and click Properties. There should be a Compatability tab, click on that. Then select a windows version to run it at, usually Win 98 will do unless it's a really old game. Works every time.. :wink: ----------------------------------- Guest Wed Dec 01, 2004 10:56 pm Re: Online Games Needed ----------------------------------- Ah but Victory it does not improve the graphics problems the game lag and most important of all the sound quality. Armada 1 was not designed to run on xp and the compatability wizard can cause more problems than it solves. I know i tried it done that and lost hair over it lol. ----------------------------------- Victory Wed Dec 01, 2004 11:00 pm Re: Online Games Needed ----------------------------------- you must have a slow machine if the compatability wizard affects your game that way. I've never had a problem with it. ----------------------------------- ECH Thu Dec 02, 2004 7:42 pm ----------------------------------- i tried the compatibility wizard for A1 once and it didnt make even the slightest diference as 2 how the game performs, oh and michael ive pm'd u cause id love 2 know how u get the son of a b*tch working, its 1 of my fav games. ----------------------------------- DisRuptor Fri Dec 03, 2004 5:00 am Re: Online Games Needed ----------------------------------- :D The Homeworld 1 engine has been released for use in "mods" - you need programming skills to use it as it's the engine only - effectively making a new game. SBONCC was considering using it to make a folowup to SFC3. :bounce ----------------------------------- Juran Fri Dec 03, 2004 1:25 pm ----------------------------------- Follow-up to SFC3? As in...SFC4? With the way Paramount is about copyrights, is this even possible? Obviously, they couldn't sell the game but is it something that could be done? They probably couldn't use the SFC name either.
