hi guys i'm new on fleetops forum, but i play it long time now anyway, i wrote this yesterday, and anyone with suggestion can help

i believe you are all familiar with STA2 Classic Mod..basiclly it's armada 2 running through fleetops even on WINDOWS 8.1 !!! yesterday, i copied the entire A1 dierctory with 1.3 patch in FleetOps mods folder...i tried to run A1 but it crashed of course...however, i could hear A1 game music and other sounds from a1 menu

so, i was thinking is it possible to make some kind of launcher using fleetops.exe to run A1 somehow?? i have x64 based system, and on my old laptop which had windows 7x64 game run perfectly even better than on XP

so i'm asking you for help..thank you in advance

Super Classic is your best bet. There are simply too many differences between the A1 and A2-FO engines for a straight copy-paste to work.

It recycles FO's graphics where possible, which is one half of the 'Super'. The gameplay should be A1's. You installed it to the Mods folder and launched it from FO's mod menu?

i see now...i misunderstood something...i excepted entire A1 graphics but i was wrong...gameplay mechanics resembles A1
