You can buy OP from dynaverse.net for $6, and use SFC Launcher to run it on Windows 10.

With ReShade it actually looks pretty good, too:

Would look even better with OP+ mod. :D

That is the OP plus mod. That's an NCL, in the stock game the NCL looks like a Miranda ;). The frigate is a TMP-era version of the Burke-class, which also weren't in the stock game.

Love the OPPlus mod.. though the X-ships get a little nuts later on. I made a mod of the shipplist where I cut about 3,000 ships out of it to get rid of all the advanced tech refits for the MP server I have running. Works better that way, IMO.

I do recall an SFB mod some years ago that made all the ships look like the original TOS versions.. I haven't seen it around though.

Really? I probably just never picked those variants.

Depends on the era you play in. There's a later version of the F-NCL (the F-NCLM) that is an actual Miranda class in the mod. Makes an appearance in the 'Late' and 'Advanced' eras, IIRC. I usually start games in the early and middle eras, so I get the Kearsarge-class (based) NCLs.

Video will be ready in about 2-5mins.

That is how my game looks like. I guess the version of the mod I am using include those TOS models.

[kalnaren]

Yup, you'll often start with that. It's an early version of the frigate (2260's era, IIRC). Once you get into the 2270's era designs you get into the TMP-inspired ones. There's only a small handful of TOS-era ships in OPPlus (14 for the feds:)

Explains why. I always play it from the earliest ERA in a "hardcore" style of play. I restart a new campaign if I get killed.

[Felinewolfie]

I've played all variants.
- SFB
- SFC1
- SFC2
- SFC2- w Orion Pirates
- SFC3 (Bleh) Refunded.

I'd love to have SFC2 w Orion Pirates again.

Like I said, you can buy it off Dynaverse and use SFCLauncher to play it no problem.

[Spam Hands]

+1, yes please. Own SFCOP but can't get that to run properly.

[PGC_Magni]

Here you go:

This method is *technically* a download for the complete game, but you still need your original serial to play (it will ask for it when you run it). No real way to avoid the game DL given the extent of the changes the H&S team has made to the game files (including hex edits on the exec). Using SFC Launcher it runs in Windows 10 no problem, and the HD patches make it look great (considering its age): https://i.imgur.com/pLCgMDT.png

If you don't have your original serial# anymore, you can buy one [legally] from Dynaverse.net I linked above.
