I bumped this up as people over at the STGU have been asking about the 1.03 patch and I directed them to this thread.. I guess many are having a nostalgic moment concerning the original SFC game :)

Anyhow, i hope that Kenneth or Erik frequents these forums and realizes that some of us are looking for the Original SFC source code in order to fix bugs like admin shuttles, sensors, and the shuttering caused by weapon impact and explosions on Win XP using DirectX 8.1 and all 9.0 installs... anyhow I hope that this fixes a lot of people up with SFC 1..

Thanks Stephen for sticky on this again.. I don't usually sticky my own threads.

Thanks for doing this...I installed my original SFC when I realized I could not get SFC3 or SFC2 anywhere locally.  I almost bought them when they came out, but at the time I was not playing PC games much.  Anyway, I ordered OP online and hopefully will get it in the upcoming week, but until thin I loaded the original. 

For some reason...maybe the fact that Enterprise is actually good now, I just really got into wanting to play a Star Trek game.  Sad to see Trek suffer so badly in recent years.  I did not realize how bad it had fallen until I went to the software store and could not find one Star Trek game on the shelves.

Also, SFC took forever to begin installation on my XP system, I thought it had locked up but it just took a while to initialize.   Also, after I got severe lag in one busy mission I modified the shortcut to run in Win 95 compatibility and in 640*480 res...seems to have helped.  Only minor lag during some explosions but not the severe lag that happened earlier.

What forum should I ask questions about online in?

Most of these forums are kinda confusing to a n00b.  I am sure with the age of the game...not too may newbies come around these days.

Hey guys!  Seeing this made me want to dig up all my old SFC1 stuff and play again!  Heck, I think I may even dig up the original demo for SFC1 and play that, too!  I wonder if all my old missions still work?  Its been so long since I've seen the scripts for SFC1 (they were very different than those for SFC2 and OP)... man, this is bringing back a lot of good memories!

Thanks for doing this!

Jim

ps. If you want to include any of my scripts with your patch, feel free to do so.  They are still up on my website (Andromedan Termination League http://home.sc.rr.com/tigerden01/ATL2.html ).  I also have the source code for them all around here somewhere... probably buried up in the attic :)

BTW... just to let you know.. this has been reposted and stickied at the top of the forum.. the install instructions in the other posting is revised to help eliminate lag in single player.
