Hello MFC!

[Admiral*Alex]

Hello and Greetings everyone!

My name is Alex (Admiral*Alex). I've been a Trekkie since I was a young lad but as I'm a second generation Trekkie (my dad grew up watching TOS live) Trek has been in my blood since before I was born. While I'm not an amazing artist or ship modeler (I'm just a fan), I love the work that everyone puts on their models. I was impressed with many of the models on ArmadaFilesArchieve.com, then I was blown away by the quality of models here. I don't know why I didn't discover this site before, but I'm glad I know about it know.


P.S. #1:
I've just started modding Armada 2, so if you see a lot of really simple questions about modding, that's why.

P.S. #2:
Please forgive me in advance for any strange formatting in anything I post. I may be young, but my eyes are old.

Please refrain from using text colors and bold formatting on whole post ~ Hellkite

Alex, welcome to our little home away from home. We can't all be modellers - someone has to actually play with the meshes we put out . I recommend Aads ships for replacing the stock in game models.

We're not just about modelling, we do have a number of other sub-forums on a variety of sci-fi, although I admit they are rather under-utilised.

Feel free to ask questions, A2 has a lot of annoying gotchas when it comes to modding (I once got caught out using the wrong sort of speech mark because I'd copy pasted code from an email!). Don't forget that we also have a search function just below the coloured menu bar.

Oh, and don't feed the animals, they sometimes bite.

Hi mate and welcome to the site, great to have a new member into modding such an old game. Not many people left doing that but they're still around and visit here frequently.

I hope you enjoy your time here and feel free to ask any questions we're always happy to help answer them.

We're happy to help! And remember, there's no such thing as a stupid question.

On the other hand, there are also a few highly exploitable quirks. Some of the things you can't do seem like they should be really easy, and some other things that you can do sound impossible at first. And sometimes you can do something if you try really hard, but it requires sixty ODFs per ship. At least we have FO to simplify things.

Sorry about that. This morning it was quite hard to read what I typed, but I guess I was still waking up.

Not to be a pain in the a**, but is enlarged text okay? I wasn't joking about having bad eye eyesight. If that's also a no, what options are there?

I already discovered one of those. I got an Uber Prometheus which thanks to the MVAM, I could turn a Galaxy into a Prometheus in the Fed Campaign. Saving the Enterprise from both the Borg and the Romulans was quite easy.

Welcome to the MSFC !

It's more of color contrast on certain websites so it's not a constant issue.

However, your first solution works great. (I'm using it right now). Thanks.
