Do I count as an old timer or am I just old?




lol.. Well you are only as old as you feel. I am 31 going on 25 myself.

With regards to the game, I don't remember your name, but that means nothing. I am pretty sure I was before your time. I was an SFC addict from it's demo days until it's demise when Mplayer went down. I played for a very short while on GSA afterwards, but it wasn't the same without the leauge, and all the people...    




I remember well the SFC 1 demo days, pre-launch. I was some rather hot stuff, if I may say so myself.

Ah, just Federation and Klingons. A few smatterings of ships. The occasional hacked freighter with the armaments of a starbase.  Wild battle royals. Playing hide and sneak with that dreadnought. Heh. One could get really pumped up sitting in the room with a green ready button waiting to launch. I remembered the devs would occasionally drop in, talk about the game, maybe play a few rounds. I also remember when the game released, and we all huddled in the lounge waiting for the Fed-Ex truck to arrive. Great crowd to play with. Had some good friends that I talked to on the beeper.

It was a few months before I got my SFC1 copy. Played for awhile, dropped it for awhile, came back and found MPlayer was gone, to my sorrow. I had some great times there.

Man, this was long ago, back in the age of antiquity. I don't even remember the alias I used back then, only that I had a spiffy avatar.

Well, enough wandering reminiscences for now.

~S~ Victoria!

Doing great! Havn't been active in SFC for a few months, but a book I'm writing is getting wrapped up and I'll be flying again soon.

Got involved with the Meta...er, Dyna beta while in KWP that pretty much took me out of the fleet back then and ended up flying ISC after EAW hit. I still fly Klink every now and then.   Yeah, I still miss them SFC1 days with Maelstrom and Lonewolf. That was quite a fleet we had.

The evolution that SFC has undergone thanks to Dave, Mags, Firesoul, Pest, etc etc, still amazes me. A hell'of a community we have here. You'll find SFC quite different and much improved.  

Glad you're back! Hope to cya on the battlefield!

I just tried to install SFC2 for the first time since I started using Windows XP (haven't played the game in two years) and something strange happens:

I'll enter the game, but then suddenly it says "mission complete" and returns me to the menu screen without playing the game!

Maybe this is an XP issue after all?

It installs, but tells me my Direct X version is not correct, and gives that ' Direct Draw Failed ' message.  I have the newest version, 9.1 or something, but no go.
   




Have you tried changing the compatibility mode for Starfleet.exe? to run on XP
