WinRAR is regarded as better than Winzip because you are able to extract both .zip and .rar files, whereas with Winzip you can only extract .zip

Thanks for that, but I got a cracked version of WinRAR 4.1 from Kazaa.

You haven't done anything wrong that way.

You CAN use WinRAR on STBOF, so give it a try. Just make sure you don't unzip (Or would that be unRAR?) the entire archive! 8O

You naughty Romulan Mastress, u used illegal software to download it! Who cares, i use Kazza to .

Yes it is UnRARbtw

hehehehehe! I have that also.....


I got mine from hmmmmm Captain Kirk.... on that Alien Planet.....
Yea thats it.... When I was wearing a red shirt... lol


Since I failed with the mod stuff. I would like to try to get teh screen capture..... Then i need how to figure out how to install it... lol

Tech savvy these days I am not...

We could always mod a Ground Combat system but we'd need to use a good 3d engine for it. Half Life 2 anyone?

The easiest way of having marine divisons would simply be adding an extra building to the game.

They could add say...40% ground combat or something. You could make them all different, like for the Federation, it would be Starfleet Marines, for the Klingons, it would be Warrior Defenders, and so on. (With better names, of course... )

I imagine that it will be easy to add buildings to the game, since Gavin is making it as moddable as possible.

Having a 3D system where you go down to the Planet(s) and give orders etc. is going to be extremely in-depth though, and is gonna take a lot of modding. However, a few weeks/months ago, there was mention of having invasion-specific orders, such as target govt. buildings, military installations, etc.

Now don't quote me on that, coz I don't know whether it was implemented or not, but you have to admit, it would be a step in the right direction...

You could even make it more in-depth, by say destroying the military makes it easier to gain control, (Less chance of terror atatcks) but the people will resist you more later on, (Greater chance of rebellion) or destroying govt. buildings means the people will be easier to control, (Less chance of rebellion) but you still have to worry about remaining military units/installations (Much greater risks of terrorist attacks) and so on.

What do people think?

Nice Ideas. But would we have the option of viewing the combat in all its glory?

As far as I know...no.

I'm not one of the devs though, so they may have an ace or two up their sleeves. It is only 5/6 weeks to go, i'm sure we'll cope with the anticipation... (Check out the diseases thread...)

I see you've added your recent afflictions
