okay folks. ill post more as the day progresses and i get time.. but i would like to say that today is GO day for the 1.0 release of Generations at War.

I will be posting the start date and all activities that will lead upto the first campaign later on.. but first the scoop. Our first two mirrors are up. First is SFC3files.com. A major thank you to Chris Jones for all the help he and the team over there has provided. That said, here is the URL

http://www.sfc3files.com/file.info?ID=22477

Please note that split files will be up there later for 56kers.

The second location/mirror is at ToastyO's Site. Please note that he HAS the split files (just click on the other SFC stuf button and you get choices). So this is the choice place for those of you who are on 56k/dial up and need the split file option.

http://www.toasty0.com/OP_Patch.aspx

I want to say thank each and everyone of you who have helped and who will be participating in the campaign. It is an honor to serve you guys and to be able and to do somthing positive and give back a little while seeing my vision of what SFC3 should have been come to hand.

More later folks!

ISC ships in the Dominion! Woot! Great mod, Nanner! Problem with SP borg campaign though as I can't get any ships to show in spacedock. Verification? Other than that...

NannerSlug · « **Reply #5 on:** January 11, 2004, 08:58:05 pm »

borg single player is messed up and is nonfunctional as far as that goes. Replacing it with a dominion campaign is somthing I hope to do long term.

Thank you reptor!

I just downloaded the mode tonight, it looks too be a very neat mod! But I'm wondering are any of you guys going to play this on GSA? I only play on GSA because I have a modem and can't play on any dyanaverses. Since Dominion Wars and TNZ are so popular, will their be anybody left that will want too play this mode?

nx_adam_1701 · « **Reply #7 on:** January 13, 2004, 01:30:25 am »

As soon as I download it I will be playing it online if you like post your SN on GSA, Im going to make an account later for myself

Magnumman357 , You might be able to play on the D3, I've been on (using Dial up), and had engagements with 3 other peeps in game. Note that Nanner is using a new Test build, that is very very stable. Check out the EULA, and or the Read Me file for more info.

but heck I'll be on GSA everynow and then, + I think in the Future, there will be a SP campaign for the Dominion.

there will also be a tournament this weekend on GSA to determin the task force commanders for the campaign.

hey Adam, I think my SN is just "Magnum357" just like it is here. You can't miss me on GSA. I'm still deciding if I want too install the mod. My system is only a P3 600mhz, can it run all these high quality models effectively for online play?

NannerSlug · « **Reply #11 on:** January 13, 2004, 11:19:52 am »

dunno. you can always try it and if it doesnt work, just uninstall it.

i hope you try it, but hey. i understand.

feargusf · « **Reply #12 on:** January 13, 2004, 07:40:46 pm »

Depends on your graphics card, really. Ive run Dominion Wars and TNZ with a similar processor and a Radeon 7200, even on the D3. I now use a G-Force FX 5200 with the same processor, and it works great there as well. BTW, rumors of 56K lag are, to my experience, greatly exaggerated. If what I hear is true, and Nanner has removed shuttles, the lag should be quite low most of the time.

Give it a try! We'd love to see you!

np, let me know though, its one of the best mods I have played ina awhile

Ok guys, I will give the mod a spin and hopefully see you around this week or weekend at GSA.

Nice job...tried it out, and I like it. I especially like the models of the Enterprise and the DD with the nacelles and such. I also like how you have incorporated the ability to play the Hydrans, the Mirak and the ISC as well as the Dominion.

My only complaint is that the Romulans seem too weak for my tastes (afterall I play Rom...you should have magic plasma or something for them). Overall, great job!

I admit is was kinda wierd playing romies without having disruptor beams, it felt different, my mod consisting of beam weapons for the roms, but cannons are kewl too, i couldnt tell whether their weak bc im a fed but i wanna see if this is true, i feel like taking of romulus lol if its true

Magnum357 · « **Reply #21 on:** January 14, 2004, 03:26:30 am »

Hey Nannerslug, I just played a couple of games with your mod. I must say, this mod kicks some serious @SS!!!! It almost feels like I'm playing a whole different game. I liked the fact that the ships require redistributing power from weapons too sheilds now. In unmodded SFC3, you just design all your ships with lots of power so that they are overloaded all the time. And I like the fact that the ships in this game fly around a little less like fighter jets and a little more like they do in SFB/SFC. Also, love the nice touches you have made by adding SFB style ships too the mode. Kinda cool too see ISC, Lyrans, and Gorn siding with the Dominion.

Also, the music you put into the game really gives the whole game a different feel. I sure hope more people use this mode on GSA because this could be fun playing other people.

NannerSlug · « **Reply #22 on:** January 14, 2004, 07:57:13 am »

i agree about the music. the music is from starfleet academy, starfleet command 1 and klingon academy. the one thing i wished sfc had done in the past 2 was to hire ron jones as the composer. in my view - he has been the ONLY composer in trek games who has reflected the true trek sound.. though ion zer did an okay jon on klingon academy.. few others have even bothered to put in the alxander courage theme.. and what is trek without. oh wait, thats enterprise.

(they need to bring back the alxander courage theme)

TalonClaw · « **Reply #23 on:** January 14, 2004, 09:34:02 am »

I've found the Roms to be quite deadly. Remember that in SFC3 as your officers become more skilled your weapons get better and will hit more. If you move from base to base at the start you can usually eventually find a decent tactical officer. The new models like the Valdore, Warbird, and Killer Hawk look really cool.

TalonClaw · « **Reply #24 on:** January 14, 2004, 09:35:48 am »

Excellent job on the music. I think the music sets the mood and you have a very nice selection.
It is way better than the stock game.

NannerSlug · « **Reply #27 on:** January 14, 2004, 10:52:41 pm »

strategy returns!

Magnum357 · « **Reply #28 on:** January 14, 2004, 10:54:19 pm »

Exactly! This is why I think I'm going too love this mod for SFC3 is because it forces you too allocate power too systems a lot more then in an unmodded SFC3. Also, its going too be extremely hard too get fast ships out of this game. No more speed 100 klingons with no sheilds and they turn on a dime where their AV number is through the roof!!! For SFC3, this is suppose too be what Starship combat is suppose too be in my opinion.

I'm kissing unmodded SFC3 good bye!
