Taldrenites > Starfleet Command CD Key Issues

Can't enter CD Key After installing Orion Pirates

<< < (6/6)

Pestalence:
here is a screen shot for the shortcut..

If you have the game installed to the default directory....



make sure that Target says

"C:\Program Files\Taldren Software Inc\Starfleet Command Orion Pirates\StarfleetOP.exe"


and that Start in says :

"C:\Program Files\Taldren Software Inc\Starfleet Command Orion Pirates"

if these are not set correctly, it will cause shuttle, fighter, and PF problems in game.. and at times cause game to crash. It can also cause keyboard problems when launching game.

This is listed in the Readme.txt file since patch 2.5.4.12 until present.... it poped up for you to read during patch install.. Surprising people don't read thost things.

anyhow I hope that this helps.
 

Mysterio:
OK I know what I did wrong. I had a shortcut to SFCOP.exe not StarfleetOP.exe. Changed it and now it works like a charm.
Thanks man.

I just bought OP (I know...a little slow on the uptake) and had the same problem with XP (entering the product key).  I found that if I hit the "escape" key it would free up the keyboard (or whatever was locked up) and then I could put in the code.  I think using the "Alt-Tab" approach would work.  Not a programmer at all, but sometimes it seems Windows just needs a little nudge or bump to get it working again.  Luck to all.  

Sirgod:
Welcome to the Boards BTW.

One reason that we make the change to the other shortcut, is there have at times been trouble launching Figthers/shuttles in the past, using the original one. Besides, It's just an old habit for us oldtimers.

anyway, Welcome to the boards, And If you have any questions, Feel free to ask.

Pestalence:
John.. the issue is tied directly in with the shortcut.. if you read my posting above and check the properties of your shortcut and make sure it is correct, then the issue will go away.

to see a shortcut properties.. right click on the shortcut and select properties.
