After following all the remaining steps, you can burn the installed game’s sub-directory to DVD for easy installation should your hard drive fail, or if you want to copy the entire game to another computer.Ģ. Each game will take up about 3.10 GB of space. Install either game from DISC 1 to the hard drive, allowing them to install to their default selected location (you will need all the game discs to continue). They have reasonable prices for one day and 30 day access.ġ. You must have the original game CD's or download ISO images and burn them to CD from: old-games dot com.
The publisher could make a bit of money for minimal work by making these games available on STEAM or GOOD OLD GAMES dot COM for say $10.00 per copy….I suspect they both would sell well, considering the number of web-sites that have people asking how to make these games playable.įollowing the steps below will make both games entirely playable from the hard drive with no discs in the CD tray. of computer controlled ships could be improved….they tend to ram you, and fail to “break contact” even when their shields are above 90 percent,….it seems this would be a technique when shields are low and “taking the opponent out with you” is the last strategy…but I digress), the only issue to be solved for distribution would be: packaging for easy installation, solving the “flashing starfield issue”, and slowing the game or computer down (all of which are solved with these instructions). The games can run on modern computers using the following instructions, thus no re-writing of game code is necessary (though the A.I. I realize that these games are the intellectual property of Paramount, Interplay, and Viacom, but the games are at least 18 years old, abandoned by the publishers (in that post-distribution date, no updates were provided.) These instructions result in both games playing well on my Win7, 32 Bit, Quad-Core, 1GB RAM Radeon Video Card. This solution works for both Star Trek Starfleet Academy (ST SFA) and Star Trek Klingon Academy (ST KA), solving the "flashing starfield" issue as a result of modern graphics cards and will slow the computer down to make them playable on faster, new computers.
I assume no responsibility for issues that may result from following these instructions (though my computers have suffered not harm), nor am I endorsing any illegal activity and am assuming that you are using legally purchased game CD’s to make this procedure work. I am not associated in any way with any of the web-sites mentioned in these instructions.
