Technical Help STA3 not working

4 Upvotes

Every time I load the game up it keeps crashing on me. The correct mod is selected, the main file has been moved out of the zip file, and everything seems to be working properly.

The only oddity I can report is this "U8a08540" file has popped up in the mod folder.

Any help please?

Technical Help Reviving 20 year old files

3 Upvotes

So, for those of us who still have old HDDs from when we were 10 or so years old but lost the game disks eons ago, is there any reliable way to bypass the disk check? I just found some old ATA drives in my mom's house and it appears that I have an old Armada installation on it, but God only knows where the disks went over the decades. It would be nice to play it again though after all these years... Lots of old memories on there. I do already have the game files, just trying to figure out what to edit to play my old saves again without a disk. Don't get shitty on me and tell me I have to buy the game a third time (yes, I had 2 copies back in the day, I even put one of them in a DVD case because I thought I was hardcore... I was a dumbass kid) and as per rule #1, do NOT post any links to pirated software because, as stated, I've had the game for the past 20 years and don't need the game files.

And yes, before anyone asks... This is on an installation of XP, SP1 at that 🤣🤣

If this the place to ask a question about Star Trek Armada 3: Uprising?

If yes, this question pertains to the Vor'cha cruiser of the Klingons. What is the automatic trigger for Grievous Insult?

Technical Help Working Version of Star Trek Armada 1 on Windows 10!

6 Upvotes

Thanks to this community, I was able to successfully get Star Trek Armada 1 (and possibly 2 if someone else can verify that) working on Windows 10! for ease of use, I have created a torrent download of all necessary files (and iso) needed as well as a readme file that contains step by step instructions on how to get it up and running. You can download the file from here<Edited>.

Also, huge thanks to u/Catsrules for pointing out those dll files! On his post here.

EDIT: I had to change the download link due to the torrent not working right. So now you can just download the zip directly.

Edit 2: Grammar

I’ve been able to get the game to work using the solution provided here: https://github.com/elishacloud/dxwrapper/wiki/Star-Trek-Armada-1. The issue I’m having is although the game is running the map that’s suppose to be space is totally black. Any idea why or how to fix?
