Q:我怎么可以弄到水下的建筑，老K，弹出式炮塔，气垫，等几个不在二张CD里带的COVEDOG官方单位？
A: 这些单位是官方补丁 3.1 patch 和 6 official units 所添加的，或者安装核子反击扩充包也可以，不过核子反击现在没可以下载的点。如果你想得到核子反击扩充包的话，这个帖子(this thread )会有帮助.
Q: 我从哪儿可以买到核子反击的CD?
A: 看这儿: This thread.
Q: 我从哪儿可以找到TA2?
A: 没有TA2; 不管TA怎么样，有一个 TASpring和最高指挥官是想作为TA2的。TASpring 是一个免费的，玩家制作的支持使用TA数据的3D引擎, 最高指挥官(Supreme Commander )是TA的一个"精神续作"，GPG出品，Chris Taylor(泰勒)总监，也就是TA的总监，以前的Covedog的头.
Q: TA Spring是什么?
A: 首先TA Spring 不是一个TA的mod,其次，他不是一个游戏，spring是一个新的游戏引擎，由一些TA玩家开放，而你可以从这儿(here)下载到它. Spring使得TA的资源文件可以在一个完全3D(特别是3D的镜头)的世界里面,除了OTA(官方TA)以外spring也一样支持很多其他的游戏，一些和TA没关系的游戏.
Q: 可不可以提供一个 CD1/CD2/Core Contingency的下载链接?
A: 我恐怕不能在任何情况下满足你这个原因，而且无论你的原因是自己买到的CD被一个时空传送到自己房间的peewee 几炮EMG毁掉了还是其他任何类似的理由。
Q: What’s the actual use of Colossus ? They call it “light carrier” but it can load nothing.
A: It can load AND repair two planes. Just take a plane, chose “move” and fly to the colossus. There it lands and is repaired. For other kind of loading, you have the Hulk.
Q: Where is “+control X” cheating?
A: It was available before the patches. Now, like many other cheats, it is gone.
Q: What does a targeting facility do? I built one and all it did was lose energy.
A: Targeting Facility makes all your armed units automatically shoot any enemies spotted with whatever radars you have. Without it you’ll have to manually order any long ranged weaponry to attack further than visual range.
Q: Is it possible to play the music from TA without the cd? Would you be able to download it from somewhere and get TA in game to play off these files?
A: The TA cd is dual session, with one being pure audio, meaning it can be put in any CD player, but more importantly can be ripped to your computer. You can run WinAmp in the background. Your game may run a little slower, but it works.
Q: I have a Mac and wish to play TA. Do I really have to buy a PC?[b]
A: Try buying MAC TA from Amazon.
Q: I installed the 3.1 patch and Core Contingency/Battle Tactics, but when I go into the game it still says version 3.0.
A: You’ve installed the expansions after patching, which patched your TotalA.exe to an older version. Uninstall, delete Cavedog directory.
- Install TA,
- Install 3.1cPatch.
- Manually install CC/BT by copying files from the disks:
ccdata.ccx (units & features), btdata.ccx can be ignored
ccmaps.ccx* (maps),
ccmiss.ccx* (missions),
btmaps.ccx* (BT maps)
tactics1-8.hpi* (BT missions), rename hpi extensions to ufo.
- if required, when using no-cd.
- Install No-CD and other stuff.
Q: I get an error message saying “Error in GUI layout” when I try to load a new Singleplayer Campaign.
A: This appears because you are using the No CD Patch, and you didn’t copy totala4.hpi from your campaign CD into your TA directory (C:\Cavedog\TotalA). To solve this, play with the campaign CD inserted and use the original TA executable (TotalA.exe) or copy totala4.hpi into your TA directory. If you bought and downloaded TA online from Atari, then this is because Atari did not provide all the required files. Consider filing a customer support complaint.
