All material used in this file is my own creation or a edit/conversion from ST: Armada 2 and ST: Legacy's weapons.

The majority of these Textures will replace the old stock Textures, so BACKUP the originals.
Except in the case of the Phaser Flares (inspired by Icewolf132's Race Specific Flares), which requires TONS of editing (ugh!).

1) Copy the contents of 1 of the 2 folders (Big or Small) into your
C:Program FilesActivisionStar Trek Armada IITexturesRGB
overwrite as neccesary.

Use of the "Big" folder may slow down your game so for slower/older machines use the "Small" folder.
If the "Small" textures still slow things down you can simply resize them even smaller, but you will lose quality.

2) Open your weapon.spr file.
(found in C:Program FilesActivisionStar Trek Armada IISprites)
Find the line below.

# Phaser Flare
pflare xflare 0 0 64 64 @anim=tex2x2

Copy and Paste the following lines under it

# Federation Phaser Flare
FFlare FlareFederation 0 0 64 64 @anim=tex2x2

# Klingon Phaser Flare
KFlare FlareKlingon 0 0 64 64 @anim=tex2x2

# Romulan Phaser Flare
RFlare FlareRomulan 0 0 64 64 @anim=tex2x2

# Borg Phaser Flare
BFlare FlareBorg 0 0 64 64 @anim=tex2x2

# Cardassian Phaser Flare
CFlare FlareCardassian 0 0 64 64 @anim=tex2x2

# Dominion Phaser Flare
DFlare FlareDominion 0 0 64 64 @anim=tex2x2

# Species 8472 Phaser Flare
SFlare Flare8472 0 0 64 64 @anim=tex2x2

3) Now you will have to add these flares to the corresponding races.
You'll have to open up ALL of the phasero ODF's found in
C:Program FilesActivisionStar Trek Armada IIodfweaponsPhasers
(phasero.odf, fbphaso.odf, bphaso.odf, ect)
and add one of the following lines, depending on the race in question.

//Federation Flare
flareSprite = "FFlare"

//Klingon Flare
flareSprite = "KFlare"

//Romulan Flare
flareSprite = "RFlare"

//Borg Flare
flareSprite = "BFlare"

//Cardassian Flare
flareSprite = "CFlare"

//Dominion Flare
flareSprite = "DFlare"

//8472 Flare
flareSprite = "SFlare"

Now all you have to do is take a breather and hopefully enjoy.

THIS MATERIAL IS NOT MADE OR SUPPORTED BY ACTIVISION.

NOTE: There are no known issues with this being added to any other mod.
It works fine in my clean version of Armada 2 and most of the popular conversions.

Use of this mod an anyway is fine by me.
