Star Trek: Armada III begins with the first stirrings of the Dominion War and allows players to take command of five unique factions, the United Federation of Planets, the Klingon Empire, the Romulan Star Empire, the Cardassian Union/Dominion Alliance, and the Borg Collective. Explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new civilizations, and boldly go where no one has gone before.

We really hope to see you stick with us while we develop Axanar!
Oh, yeeeaaass! Thanks for all the hard work folks! Now, I got to go... Romulan Empire needs me.
The Federation will certainly support it's Romulan allies in the war against the Dominion! :u
Serst!
Thank you for such a great mod
Link to patch notes?
Patch notes are in the zip folder.
They are essentially exactly what is posted on the front page.
Thanks for all the hard work devs! Can't wait to try it out :D

ok so your Patch doesn't play well with your Installer version. And yes i know how to overwrite game files. I've tried to enable STA3-CTA 3 times from the basic rebellion game and all i get are mini dumps. I've also defragged my system, just to make sure the idiotic OS didn't remember where it put the updated mod at. Very irritating for a beautiful day outside.
You need to activate the mod via the enabledmod.txt file, not the internal activator.
Thank you very much for your hard work. I'm a huge fan :)
Hey devs thanks so much for the new patch. However i noticed a bug (dunno if its a bug or smth_. when i played the mod after patching it for the first time, as romulans, when i build my basic capital ship, the wings of the ship are red in colour. only the middle portion has designs. any help? thanks :)
Set all graphics settings (under "Effects" tab) to low, hit apply, then set them to high again. The textures will be reloaded and you should have a proper Vengeance.
yeah dev that helped thanks! oh but sorry for asking i noticed that after this patch the game becomes very laggy and choppy after playing for around 10 mins. especially during battles. any ideas? thanks
hey i have winzip. do you mean like copy paste
Firstly, from all of the videos and screen shots I've seen, this looks AMAZING. It's so impressive. Great job.
Here's my issue:
I've followed the steps provided and as seen in the YouTube video up until the "Enable Mod" and "Apply Changes" buttons in-game. I've placed the files in the "Mods-Rebellion v.1.82", because that's where my game has it mapped.
Every time I apply the changes, the game brings up the "Please Wait" splash screen. But that's as far I get. I've left the screen up for a few hours. The game freezes and nothing happens.
I'd appreciate any advice you can give.
You enable the mod through a text file called EnabledMods.txt. You do not activate the mod from ingame, it will always end up badly. Once you place the EnabledMods.txt in the Mods-Rebellion v.1.82 folder it should start up the mod.
Hello, that this mod is awesome, but I've got a problem when playing any map around
5 to 6 minutes each time it falls. I can make you please help me. Thanks for the answers.
could be a lag problem try to minimize graphics and close any unneeded tabs if it still happens uninstall and retry
can you post a video on how to download the patch I always mess up on this stuff
if we have time we will do another install vid lol
k thanks the first time I tried to installed I screwed up really bad
how do i get this game so i can play?
you buy sins of a solar empire(from steam or star dock)then download the mod watch the tutorials on how to download if you don't know. then play
So I extracted and replaced the folder to update to 1.1 and noticed the B'rel sfx are still broken, I tried to copy the folder again just in case it was a file issue and its still broken. Thanks I am in love with the game !
Hello, I have just noticed that the unity starbase is using the shield mesh from earthdock starbase.

im missing texures please help
Im having some issues with the AI in V1.1
When I start up the game with a Fed ally they will not colonize planets or do anything, they just sit there for 30 or so mins then they will colonize 1 world then sit for another 30 mins doing nothing. Tested this on easy, medium, and hard difficulty. I have also seen them use Intrepid class ships for scouting on medium difficulty... will try this with the other races later to see if it is just an issue with the Federation faction or not.

I have the patch, but it keeps crashing
cant play it more than 20 minutes and crashes it did this 5 times i dont know why need help please
Got the patch, installed and working no problem.
I usually play as Tec/Feds on the Hard level and usually win.
Not now though! Played Random Vast twice and got hammered, 3rd attempt is going better but I've got the Borg as my nearest neighbours to the right, ho hum.
I often play the Crazy mod which I love, they give loads more ships 20+ Caps etc but I've noticed that with a huge fleet lots of Frigates and Cruisers don't contribute in a fight so I'd like to know if STA has fleet size limits and, if so, what are they please.
Ok, so the mod was working fine before I patched it, but after the patch, the game just seems to lag for lack of a better term every so many seconds, never had any problems with it before the patch.
Tried it on a different PC, having the same issues with the patch.
Hey devs,
First off, unbelievable mod. I don't even think of vanilla Sins anymore, I think of it as Armada 3 being in my steam library. That being said I am having problems with the new release that I have seen repeatedly in the comments section. The game is rather choppy. In addition I have problems with the explosion effects as well as some of the ship renders where they will appear with a solid color as their skin rather than the correct texture (this usually occurs with the Janissary class and scarab class for the Cardassians.) Lastly, the game crashes after around 5-10 minutes of gameplay. Any information or help would be greatly appreciated.
first I want to thank you guys such fine game you got for us. second please help!!! after new update it crashes after 5 to 10 mins, did run the .exe file and uninstall all the game all together try installing game with old game (without patch) and same result.
thank you for your time.
HI looking for some help here. I seem to be having the same issue some other folks are having I'm running a fully patched version of the game. it plays very nicely for about 10 mins then it just disappears (poof back to my desk top) I've re installed everything including the original sins and not sure what the problem is. Any help or direction would be appreciated. I'm so excited to play this MOD
Its crashing when I add Mod and apply changes, can anyone tell mehow to fix this: BearKranz@Hotmail.com
