Pepperman, 2008-06-16

The Reman Warbird is an armed and dangerous predator. The ship is equipped with a large number of disruptor cannons, photon torpedo launchers, and both primary and secondary shielding systems. All this is in addition to the Scimitar's special weapons--thalaron-based weapons--that can destroy every living thing on a starship or starbase in a matter of seconds. The Reman Warbird Scimitar has been converted from SFC III. The accompanying files have been setup to allow one to play the Scimitar as part of the Romulan Star Empire in Star Trek Armada I.

Warning: The Scimitar has been setup to be a very powerful vessel.

I've done everything told and when I go to build it, the scimitar builds to 99% and then the game crashes. This has happened numerous times. I've tried reinstalling the game and following instructions among several other things. Any help would be appreciated. Otherwise, everything that I see looks pretty cool! :thumbsup:
#2 pepperman 2008-06-23 18:46
Sounds like and weapons odf file problem to me. Look at the scimitar.odf file and ensure that you have odf files for each of the weapons called. I might have accidently excluded one. :sad:
#3 startrekie 2008-06-24 10:30
I'll go ahead and do that. This problem occured for the Romulan Command Center as well. I'm swayed to think that this is my problem, not something wrong with what I downloaded.
#4 startrekie 2008-06-24 20:15
Sorry for double post. Everything actually worked out right, I must've done something wrong the first time, obviously. Otherwise, love the model and those unique special weapons. Nice work!
#5 ferbekverbauer 2011-06-04 07:30
this is not possible to install, people who want to download this DONT!!! you can not, i repeat CAN NOT change the files requested, it is impossible, half of the files you need to mod arent even .odf files, or are not there in the original instalation, this probably only works on whatever mods the person who released this has installed, this is a warning not to f*ck up your armada, thanks for reading my help
