I have read all this stuff about the final version of Fleet ops and i was wondering when it was going to come out? ive been trying to install the mod and i cant get past the Borg.wav file and ppl were saying that this new version will fix this.

thanks much

welcome to the forums, stobei.
are you using vista?

Star Trek Armada II: Fleet Operations - When will Fleet Operations v3 be released?

Hmmm.... wait!!! That sounds oddly familiar.    I've heard this Borg.wav issue thing before. Vista be damned!!!!  >:(  F.C.U.K. Microsoft.

yeah that's the decoder issue i've had as well. can't get passed the borg.wav then the federation.wav, after clicking {ok} for about 2-600 times! I think it installed haven't tested it yet, but I'm also going to install it on my old XP machine and see what happens.

Yeah I am really SUPER Pisse--I mean PEEVED about this freaking problem. If nobody can find a way to resolve this there will be no way that I can play on my laptop... which will be my only computer in 4 days!

Does anyone have ANY ideas---really I mean any; I'm that desperate--on how I can get Flops to work on my vista machine?
If so; could they run these ideas down for me?
I have an xp machine with flops installed; so if that offers any key....
Thanks, dom

the only way I know of Flops working on a Vista machine (as of V3pr) is for the user to install first to an XP machine first then copy over to the vista one, or an XP partion or virtual machine I hear works as well.
Its difficult to advise since I held off of getting Vista, and by the looks of things I shall continue to do so.

If you've already tried to install FO as administrator and if you have also tried to disable UAC and it still doesn't work, I have to admit I ran out of ideas.

Is there no way for you to get XP on your notebook?
You will have more fun with your laptop without Vista, believe me, I tried it. Vista incredibly slows down your machine. XP is faster and 100% FO-compatible

Vista only slows down old equipment but stuff that is designed specifically to work with it, it works supurbly fast.  Saying "go back to XP" wont solve the problem since XP has been phased out and Vista will be it.  Just like everyone refused to upgrade from 95 or god forbid ME to XP.  One way or another everyone will conform.  I think the borg said it best. 

"We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile."
