Topic: Hello all...I haven't been here in a LONG, LONG time!!!!!!!!

[MercilessMarty]

I'm MercilessMarty,

Formerly known as "Marty The Merciless" on previous incarnations of this fine example of Fora, LEGENDARY Klingon warrior, author of one of the earliest tactical papers on the Saber Dance .....(SFC1 days!!!!!),  retired Commander of the IKV Marauder, now a reserve Rear Admiral.

Any old dogs here who might remember me?

I do recognize a few tags here, the INFAMOUS Nannerslug, Fed slime, Sethan, the famous Romulan literary great, Atrahasis, Starship engineer extraordinaire..........Many of the fine people from the ultracool Xenocorp Organization.................

Anyway, What's up?

I JUST installed SFC3 2 days ago, I've finished the Klingon campaign (either the AI is was severely dumbed down or some of my online skilz still remain) and I'm in the middle of the Romulan campaign and it seems that I've stopped receiving campaign missions............I've got a totally loaded out D'Derridex with all the trimmings but I'm not an Admiral yet.........

The last mission I received was the one were you blow up the asteroid as a diversion, swing in towards a Starbase, plant some jammers, pick up an operative, and blow up a shuttle...................Or was it the one where you scan unity under cloak??? I can't remember it was whatever was the later mission...........

I hope this isn't a bug....then again I'm used to it (sorry Taldren, but thanks for the cool game!!!), anyone know anything about this?

Another thing............What are all the cool must have mods and such to fully enhance the single player experience.......

What is the coolest Dynaverse community to be part of?

follow the link dude and get the UNITY mod  

the mod is just about to start so for the next month there will be high numbers of players online and we always help out the noob

for sfc3, there are a couple of mods out there which you might want to try.

dominion wars by pelican is one which replaces the borg with the dominion axis (and has the largest ammount of ships, bar none) http://www.pwfe.com/domwars/Downloads.shtml

Black Ops is hosting a dyna based on the dominion wars mod: http://sboserver.com/

I am very close to releasing my mod (which  brings back much of the sfc1/2 flavor/weapons damage and has some familiar faces) you can find at www.starfleetcommand3.net (there are a few places to download it at - although i would wait for the new release).

the Temporal Alliance Group has a server going (dont have an email address for it).

I believe there might be one or two more coming dynas in the near future as well which are not listed here. hope this helps.

Hey Nanner, I didn't realize anyone was trying to make a Mode for SFC3 based on mechanics of the old SFC1/2 game.  I know it would be next too impossible to make it like those games, but could you explain exactly how your mode will be "Like" those games?  I'm very curious about this and I might try out your mode when its done.

well.. here are few bits of information..

1) i have used sfc1/2 formulas for determining weapons damage and what not. For instance a phaser 9 does the same damage as a phaser 2. phaser 10s do the same damage as a phaser 1. phaser 11s do 2 more points of damage and so forth.

romulan plasma Hs do 50 points of damage (plasma Rs), Ms do 30 (Ss), Ss do 20 (Gs).

Photons do 8 points of damage, qs do 24. (in op the heavy photon does 16 points)

i also used similar formulas to determine how much energy, hull damage a ship should take and shields.

there are a number of other things which i have tried to do (including the addition of some sfc1/2 ship type conversions).. its not perfect - but then again, the main thrust of the mod is a concentration on bringing back some of the detail of sfc1/2 and bridging the two games together - all while being true to cannon.

if you have any other questions, please pm me and i would be honored to answer them for you.

and before you think it, yes, its fluf's fault.
