Probably best to just try single player a little bit first before attempting any thing else. Then once you are a little familiar with the stock patched game, go looking at some of the multi-player options. I wouldn't leap in too quick, no matter who is shoving stuff at you.

Not sure I can be bothered, but as you are the Doc, can you run an AI standard patrol in 2 minutes in a KRC? If so, there is no problem and I am utterly wrong. If you cannot, then the KRC is a worse ship for AI missions than ones I know can.

  The Enhancement Pack is for single player a well but you can play it on a dyna.You would need to download a server to play on any server so don't worry about it all the patches are in their btw.This what I meant by corrupting a game buy DL a patch on top of a patch it will corrupt the game as well as any mods.This happened to me when I put a patch on top of a patch.The best thing though is to listen to Cleaven about playing single for awhile and see what ship and Empire fits  you .They say playing Federation is easy I don't think so the plasma races are  easier to learn because they cause so match damage to other ships
  I would say the ISC is probably one of the easier of them all unless they a fighting droner ship.The ISC hates drones and has hard time dealing with lots of them.I would just get used to all the Empires and ships and try to develope some of your own tactics.I would play a few single player campaign as well.I have at least 4 or 5 going at once.I hope this helps.

Age,
The file I downloaded says: "This file contains invalid data."

I downloaded: OP_Enhancement_Package_v2.0_HR_Models

What is wrong?

Also, I have played a lot of EAW over the past few months, so I may skip, or go slow on the single player mode. While also playing online.

I am downloading the Low Resolution file right now (129MB). It is much larger than the High Resolution file (only 13.9MB).

What is the difference between the two?

  When you downloaded it did it completly DL .I did mine with get right it is a download manager and prevents it from diconnecting from the  host server.This what might of happened and some of the data you didn't recieve.This a possiblty or simpely it might have to uploaded agian. The Difference in the low res. is it is the low res..The High res. should be 147mb and low res. 138 mb these are the ones with models of course.There are one without models but you will be only seeing the stock OP model that is out of box.

 To get right go to www.getright.com

  I will check the site out agian this not the one I DL it was V1.04 186.66mb big at 56K 13 hours to DL.

  The reason is that he could be taking his site down and up while you are in thr process of DL it.That has to be it as I just tried and is is down.This why it good to have download manager like getright it will tell you this.I will mention this to him.This for the 534 patch SFC3.

You are probably right. My download of the low resolution file cancelled in the middle a little while ago. I will try again tomorrow.

I just tried to download the high resolution file again. It is only 14 MB.
The reason this happening is that Pestalence has to re upload it to his site as it wasn't fully on his site.This could of had something to do when Taldren closed their doors as he may have taken it down.He say is will have it by the end of the week.I would wait till Sunday or Monday do DL this again.In the mean time you might want clean all that stuff out again yes uninstall and delete game folder.I know it is a pain but you don't want to find that something went wrong and will have to keep doing this over again.This is be on the safe side.

Hang in there guy.

  I will suggest this to you as Pestalence in putting together V2.0 agian and making up one for EAW.This may be the reason you aren't getting the full Dl as he as taken it down from his site.I suggest that you get V1.04 this is the one that I have you can get it at www.sfcx.org then click on downloads then SFCOP ,mods and there you will see V1.04 high res.with models that is what I have.
  Then after downloading this and letting it fully install you will have to into C:programs /Taldren software inc.Orion Pirates folder there is a little uninstall can  and uninstall OP+3.2 shiplist.Then to get OP+3.3 shiplist you will want to go to www.Klingonstasis.ca and look for OP+3.3 high res models and download to C:programfile/Taldrensoftware Inc.but save it to don't open it.You will have to go back into C;programfiles/Taldrensoftware and click on OP+3.3 to install it. I suggest do this untill Pestalence get the Enhancement Pack up on his site agian but like me you might not won't it while V1.04 is is installed on your system.
   There is a little red box in Taldrensoftware folder it will say shipedit click on this so that shipedit will install and there is two of them one for EAW and OP.I hope you have better luck this time with this one btw you don't have to be a member of SCFX to do any doanloads.I would like you to follow my directions to the letter.
   I would suggest agian to uninstall OP game from add and remove programs and go into C: program folders and delete Taldrenshoftware folder before doing the above.
   I hope this all works out there for you
