But the real meat 'n potatoes lie in the simulator. To make a long story short everything has been beefed up and they've added a ton of gadgets and options. You can't change the screen-resolution in the demo, but I'm sure that will change.<P>Now, to me the concept of getting to know the klingon ships from top to bottom is very appealing, and for those more eager to pilot a romulan warbird a la 2290, or a federation Yamato-battleship, you're in luck. The multiplayer- and "custom-battle"-options are very advanced. Apparently they have created different interface-themes for the different races, which will include Federation, Klingon, Romulan, Tholian, Gorn and ?Sha'Kurian? vessels. And there will probably be gaming on the Internet (they say they're working on it).<P><BR>The minimum requirements at this point:<BR>Pentium II 233mhz<BR>64MB RAM<BR>3D accelerator-card w/ 8MB of RAM<BR>8x CD-ROM<BR>About 200MB of free hard disk space.<P>This is, of course, subject to change, so keep your thumbs crossed!<P>Anyone else who have played this game, your input will be appreciated! <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Nim</b> <br /><small>Member # 205</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2000,2,7,6,2,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">March 07, 2000</span> <span class="timeformat-0">06:02 AM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> Strange, this could be the greatest achievement of all time in Trek-gaming and noone even bothers to comment?
