[edit] Hidden Features and Easter Eggs

About patch 2.5.4.10, 2.5.4.12, 2.5.5.0, 2.5.5.2: There are 2 hidden features introduced in 25410. This is how you use them.

[edit] New Arcs

Edit the shiplist and put in these arcs where you want them.

• FALX/FARX -> FAL/FAR + right down rear
• LSRF/RSLF -> LS+RF / RS+LF missing arcs
• RRP/RLP -> Rear plasma arcs good for some tugs and HDWs.
• LR -> L+R arc. Can be found on mythical Tholian Snare weapons.

In 2.5.5.2, more arcs were added:

• SFBL/SFBR -> L/R only

[edit] Switch to disable Engine Doubling

Disable Engine Doubling for all pirates. (Useful for Mods). Add AllowEngineDoubling=0 to the [Network] section of the sfc.ini to disable engine doubling for all pirates.

[edit] Resetting your SFC:OP Registry entry for your CD-Key

Doing the following will cause SFC:OP to re-ask for the CDKey.

• Location: HKLM\\Software\\GameSpy\\CDKeys
  • Key: StarfleetCommand2, set to "43", Hex.

Other links on this site:

• SFC:OP Plus Refit
  • many many many (+5000!) added real SFB-based ships
• SFC:EAW missions for SFC:OP
  • EAW missions sources and EAW campaigns compiled for SFC:OP

[edit] SFC Sources: APIs, Mission Scripts

[edit] Development APIs

• SFC2_API_R1.3.zip
  • SFC2:EAW API from Taldren, rev1.3 (size: 5.4mb)
• SFCOP_API_R2.zip
  • SFC2:OP API from Taldren, rev2.2 (size: 5.5mb)

These following files are in no way official packages. These files, zipped from my build environments on my harddrive, will not recieve support in any way. I make these files available to solve problems concerning compiling with either or both EAW and OP APIs on the same machine.

• FireSoul_EAW_build_env-20031117.zip (size: 8.7MB)
• FireSoul_OP_build_env-20031117.zip (size: 9.1mb)
• ShipList.20050118.zip
  • modified ShipList API to allow access to fighters and PFs list generation. This modification from MagnumMan's SLAPI also contains Enhanced Shiplist support (OP+4.0 only, as far as I can tell). For OP, useful with mSetFighters function. (size: 570Kb) (Can be used with either API. It's smart enough to detect.)
• firesoul_shiplist_support_perl_scripts.zip
  • perl script I used to help me debug my OP+ shiplist. There are scripts in there to detect "???" for shipnames, refits and missing names for ship classes.

[edit] FireSoul's Screenshots

• woah.JPG
  • coopace development screenshot before the 32 AI ships limit was introduced. This was taken as proof that the script was now stable.

• 1peace_OP_1.JPG
  • ... Yes, the OP-compiled EAW campaigns work.

• 1peace_OP_2.JPG
  • .... really, they really do run on SFC:OP.

• OhMyESGs.png
  • .. that was back in the days I was helping MagnumMan test his 'patch of day' for SFC:EAW. The point here was proof that being able to see the ESG ranges of the enemy was visible in a multiplayer game.

• challenge.JPG
  • Ah memories.. .. I won against a R-CON+ with a ... F-NCL+ ... ?

• coopace-fighters1.JPG
  • at one point during coopace development, I was tring to get the AI to get free updated fighters. This is a screenshot of the success. (Please note I am running away really really fast.)

• coopace-fighters2.JPG
  • (THIS is what I was really running away from!)

• double-base-construction.gif
  • Want to guarantee SB construction on a D2 server? It's been a long time since I've done this trick, but maybe this will still work?

• slot_2033.JPG
  • THIS is the slot bug. I am FireSoul.. I am NOT strafer. bleh.

• tractored_plasma.jpg
  • I caught this one during OP testing. A plasma was fired at a tractored MIRV. The mirv itself was invisible, this was proof that the object was actually absent: the plasma kept tracking an unhittable object. (Although it looks like a plasma being tractored.)

• where_is_mirv.jpg
  • past MIRV bugs that had been fixed. Isn't being a tester fun?

• winex-shipedit.png
  • The EagleEye ShipEdit program runs under WineX.

• winex_sfcop.png
  • So does SFC:OP. WineX is by TransGaming Technologies, my ex-employer. WineX is called Cedega, today.
