This is often a sensative issue among freelance programers/modders but..........Have you ever considered getting involved with the creators of A2 and actually marketing this mod (either on its own, or in with current copies of STA2) Similar to what the Half-life community did with Counter-stirke and DoD? I realize that some times people take great pride in make an ONLY free product that can't be bought at all, but I think it would (if possible) be a great boost for the Armada community if you could release fleet ops on a wide scale as its own game based on the A2 engine (Similar to what some games have done, based on engines like Age of empires or Half-life) or as an addon to A2, Mainly becuase the quality of your mod is not only better than A2, but better than probably 75% of the retail games out there right now, and a mod/game like this can have real long-term staying power when its made by those kinds of standards. Even if it was not to actually sell it, but just to include it with the copies of A2 still being produced?

Not to mention the cash from the royalties or whatever.

Are you a beta-tester? If so how do I get to be one? I've beta tested mods before.

well the problem is that activision doasn't have the star trek licence anymore and therefore they can't release any startrek game..
of course we would be pleased if someone klicks the donate button on the main page

the only official beta tester is Detektor at the moment.. perhaps we will hire a few new ones after beta3, but at the moment Detektor is enough
