Problems after hardware upgrade.

posted on May 29th, 2011, 7:12 pm

My pc:
Core i7 2600k
KINGSTON 8 GB DDR3-1333
Asus ENGT520 SILENT (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 520)

Problem is, like you seen in the screenshots I have taken, that the game graffics aren't loaded correctly.
Games starts, but without the toolbar.

Any Idea?

Have you tried hitting Crl+I repeatedly and seen any change?

Is it just fleetops that does this, or Armada 2 as well?

this has been reported before here:
Star Trek Armada II: Fleet Operations - FleetOps v3.14 - v3.15 wont play on Nvidia GTX 570/580

sadly it seems your graphics card/driver is the problem.

that thread was talking about gtx 570/580, it sounds like all 4/500 series are affected.

Adam_C had a solution:
Star Trek Armada II: Fleet Operations - FleetOps v3.14 - v3.15 wont play on Nvidia GTX 570/580

it seemed to work for several people, it switches armada to an experimental dx9 mode. this fix is unsupported though.

That worked for 3.2.2! Thanks

I have a modded 3.0.7 which setting do I have to change there to use D3D9?

dunno, do separate fleetops installs use separate fodata.ini files? or does the one file apply to all installations of fleetops?

I believe the same fodata.ini file is used between all installations

then that means this setting should apply to all your installs and you only need to set it once.
