just read the readme and im realy impressed what you made out of the old armada2 engine

only one question: does t he unit limitation work correctly now? i noticed that if you build two limited units at the same time you can get both because the build button isnt diabled as long as the limitation is not reached. it tryed this some month ago with armada2 with the patchprojectpatch installed

I've got a question concerning the readme-file. You say that "all research is no permanent and will not be lost if losing the
  corresponding research station". Does that mean that all research IS permanent and will not be lost if you lose a research station or does ist mean that all research is NOT permanent and you DO lose your advanced tech in case the corresponding station is destroyed? I'm a bit confused about that statement

"is no permanent"
make that ->
"is now permanent"

I hope not, that can be very useful in giving you a small edge over another player of the same empire.

you should not be able to build over the build limit, even with the old patch project files. one of the vessels should be pulled from the build queue, as soon as the other vessels leaves the yard

It always goes over the limit.

Just out of curiosity has V3 been tested out on a Vista x64 system? That's what I'm running right now and I'd hate to not be able to run this thing when it comes out.

Could it be possible to have some new screenshots in gallery? I think that many who don't have the possibility of donating (including myself) would be very interested to see some new screenshots.

i am running vista x64 now too

yea, i hope we find the time to upload some new screenshots soon

It always goes over the limit.

if that is the case, then this is a bug, i didn't do a lot testing myself but left that to the modders
