>Download Star Trek Armada II: Patch Project 1.2.0 here (http://www.fleetops.net/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=14&func=select&id=4)< Readme: Quote Star Trek Armada II Patch Project Copyright (C) 2007 Fleet Operations Development Team http://www.fleetops.net/ What is it? The Star Trek: Armada II Patch 1.2 Project is an unofficial patch made by the developers of the Fleet Operations total conversion for Star Trek Armada II. It is meant as a patch for every Armada II installation, despite of it is stock or has been modded. It patches serveral bugs that were not fixed with the latest official 2002 release of Patch 1.1. More and more reports of people not being able to play Armada 2 coming up as today people are using much more enhanced software and hardware than 5 years ago. The developers of Armada 2 targeted Windows 98 and partly Windows 2000 as plattform. What is it not? The patch project does not provide new textures sounds or anything else that is related to change the game experience. Patch 1.2 is fully backwards compatible with Armada 2 Patch 1.1. That means, you will be able to play together with people still using patch 1.1 What does it do? Some of the most 'popular' bugs patched are: - 'Sorry, there is not enough memory to continue' - screen - Crash to desktop right after splash screen related to an stack overflow - Multiplayer/Online crash with Vista (could fix Wine multiplayer issues too. To be confirmed). Features - An enhanced exception catching engine. The new patch makes Armada using madExcept by madshi as new exception handler which allowes you to send us extended debug info to us when a crash occuors on your computer related to Armada which we can fix for new releases of the Patch 1.2 Project. Is that all? No, it isn't. The first releases of Patch 1.2 are intended for bug fixing only. Later version will feature full widescreen support and new enhancements for mod developers. Who should install Patch 1.2? Everyone playing Star Trek Armada II. Fleet Operations players do not require to install this patch. An enhanced version of that patch is included in Fleet Operations 3.0 final. Title: Re: Star Trek Armada II: Patch Project 1.2.0 released! Post by: TanEdos on July 09, 2007, 02:24:53 AM This is a great idea i'll try it out, but what's the deal with the Armada Filefront site? They seemed to have nixed the whole FO hosting thing?

Sorry if it sounds too harsh, but they just keep nagging. Title: Re: Star Trek Armada II: Patch Project 1.2.0 released! Post by: TanEdos on July 09, 2007, 04:52:27 PM I heard there was some odd talk about FO skipping to thier own rules in terms of setting up the MOD. I don't want to get into it, and I am a little bias (loving FO and all) but what seems to be the BIG deal? It's a quality MOD for a game that's found ways to bend some fo the hard coded rules without an SDK. It can't be helped others would flip out a bit.

Post by: AdmarilRyan on July 11, 2007, 12:58:05 AM Filefront is a buisiness and accountable for what files it hosts, it is, in the view of the filefront management, questionable if fleetops and this patch violate the terms and conditions of the EULA. As such, they are taking the safe root, and have removed filefront from their servers after investigating the matter properley for the first time. It is their right to be able to do this, and no one should hold their cautious attitude against them, no matter if their views on the matter differ.
Title: Re: Star Trek Armada II: Patch Project 1.2.0 released! Post by: RedShirt on July 16, 2007, 11:48:43 PM I agree. However, can they continue to justify not hosting something that is an obvious benefit to the community after the offending file has been removed?
