Star Trek Armada 2 with FO engine
I made an upgrade on Star Trek Armada 2 Classic using Fleet Operations engine.
That idea came, when a user ask for help, because he can't run Armada 2 on he's computer, so I decide to try implement A2 in the FO engine.
I added 16 new factions: Dominion, Shivan Empire, Reman, Hirogen,Vulcan,Ferengi, StarFleet,Temporal Empire, The Metathran, Terellan Navy, K'Loran, Terran Confederation, Kilrathi, Breen, Earth Empire and Plasc.

Available races:
1- Federation,
2- Borg,
3- Klingon,
4- Romulan,
5- Cardassian,
6- Species8472,
7- Dominion,
8- Shivan Empire
9- Reman ,
10- Hirogen,
11-Vulcan,
12-Ferengi,
13 - StarFleet,
14 - Temporal Empire,
15 -The Metathran,
16 - Terellan Navy,
17 - K'Lorani,
18 - Terran Confederation,
19-Kilrathi (incomplete),
20 - Breen,
21-Earth Empire,
22-Plasc

I want to add some Vulcan ships on the Federation side and I'm working on it.

If something is wrong with the game mod, let me know, but I checked before uploading and everything was just OK.

Tad confused on the install. When you say our Game folder, do you mean the FleetOps folder or the Mods Folder? The file structure seems a bit strange.

Also, looking at the files, you have a lot of duplicate/unused files (for example, the shipimages, sound effects, voiceovers and music from KA2. If you want to use them, awesome they just seem to be unused and out of place for TNG mod)

Hi. Thanks for writing.
Music from your mod ? I have to take a look on that.
I will try to made a game version to be install into the Mods folder :-)
Initially, I wanted a game mod to be installed into the D:\Games folder but I think to change that and move everything into the FO Mods folder.
And I really want to add some Vulcan battleships into the game, maybe the Tholians too :-)

OK. I moved all the files to the FO-----Data---Mods folder and works just fine.

But, I really cannot understand what's going on with the planets, one planet is big on a map, on other map just a small planet.

Any idea how can I fix the planets and the mining asteroids to appear the same size on all maps available for A2 ?

What it sounds like is that some maps planets are "reset" and others aren't. I had the same trouble with Dilithium Moons once. Basically, when you place an object on a map and save, it's values are remembered in that map file. If you then change the ODF file for that object, it causes problems when the map is reloaded.

What you'll need to do is replace every huge planet on every map. Just delete, then place down a new one (and rename if you like etc) . That should fix your problem.

As for the music and sound effects and such, yup. As I said, you are free to use them if you like, they're just out of era for a TNG mod (and you don't have Lyrans, ISC, Hydrans etc to need VOs and music for)

Tholians......Yes..... I had the Tholians, but somehow, they were conquered / erased by the Temporal Empire :-)
That was told me by a friend who played my game mod :-)
Well, that's it.....no Tholians.
The remains of the Tholians was destroyed by the Shivan's and their place was taken by the Shivan Empire.
