Now after 6 years it is possible to get a brand-new patch for Star Trek Armada II that lies a hand on it's bugs and issues again.
This patch is compatible with FleetOps Team's Patch Project v1.2.5.
This is the latest official patch for Star Trek: Armada II.
It patches serveral bugs that were not fixed with the latest. It is meant as a patch for every Armada II installation, despite of it is stock or has been modded. The Star Trek: Armada II Patch 1.2 Project is an unofficial patch made by the developers of the Fleet Operations total conversion for Star Trek Armada II. This is a definite must-download for all Armada 2 players, as it introduces many fixes and new features. Gonna fiddle around with this and see if I can find the root of the problem.=> Download Link star trek armada ii patch I really hope I don't have to wait that out again. having the physical disk may be the difference, but as I said before, I got it to work ONCE after waiting literally a week without shutting down my computer or disrupting the processes. It could be an issue with having the physical disk: I have the Armada II disk scratched up beyond recognition, so I "borrowed" (ahem) an iso, and have tried both Alcohol and Daemon Tools to mount it and run. I have no idea what was the trigger that got it to install the last time, I have UAC off and went through literally every executable and made it run through compatibility mode. Setup*32.exe pops up for about a day, then _ISDEL.exe and another InstallShield process pops up, and then that seems to hang forever. I uninstalled and reinstalled after messing the game up by over-modding it, and now I'm stuck in the same problem, so I'm trying to learn a bit more. I'm currently struggling with this myself- I installed it once and it took literally a week for the installer to pop up. And I am FAR too lazy to go through all that work. So, one could single out the issue by checking the processes and services that run normally but are not running a minimal boot in safe mode. This didn't fix the issue normally, but then I booted in safe mode, ran the installer, and it worked INSTANTLY. Edit: Aha! Well, I got it to work immediately: safe mode! The first thing I did was make sure that every executable in the CD-Rom drive was both set to Windows 98 Compatibility mode and set to run as administrator (verified by checking in registry).
