That game is no longer supported. You should probably try the free v2.0 version.

A new minor build is up. See the full changelog Going to release one more patch for the remaining (see changelog) known issues in the coming weeks. Then we're going dark for a few months; after which the first major 3.0 update lands. As previously mentioned in this update, this and all future builds are for The Lyrius Conflict DLC only. So if you are looking for on-going patches to the base (freeware) Universal Combat CE v2.0 game, you need to buy the DLC. It's cheap. Don't be cheap. Are you cheap? THE PLAN In the next few months to final 2016 release, there are going to be on-going fixes, tweaking etc to the underlying game engines. During that time, all the new content (art, models, terrain textures, fx etc) will be replaced with the more recent ones. As most of this content cannot be used in the current legacy game engine, once the game, graphics, space & planetary terrain engines have been updated, the replacements will start being implemented. Because of the critical nature of upgrading the aforementioned engines, at some point, there will be a huge gap between updates; and some of those updates will have various features disabled, or just plain broken. But as this DLC is a separate add-on, if this happens, you can uninstall the DLC, and still be able to play the base game. Then when things are back to normal, you can just re-install the DLC. All this can be done from within the Steam interface, and no messing with patches and such.

Wow, how time flies. My daughter too has grown and in a couple years, is off to college.

Canshow, our entire audio library is included in the Lyrius Conflict DLC currently up on Steam. The freeware UCCE 2.0 that's on there, does not have the full library. So no need to upload it anywhere else outside of the game.

Wow!! We all got old, huh?

Sorry no, there isn't one.

All my space combat games are on the high-end niche end of the spectrum unfortunately. Even GCES which is just a shooter, is a tad complex. But that one is more fighter combat. The Battlecruiser and Universal Combat series are more capital ship combat, but which also have some fps thrown-in, depending on how you play. The other games I would recommend are: Ascent // on Steam Rebel Galaxy // on Steam Into The Stars // on Steam Everspace // just got funded on Kickstarter Infinity Battlescape // on Kickstarter this week

No. They were updated automatically. So everything should be there.

...and the problem you are having is what?

As you may have noticed, we upgraded the forum to the latest and greatest. If you notice anything odd, please let us know. You have noticed that the "display name" and "user name" have been merged. So you can now only login using your "display name"

Though the game runs on Windows 10, it wasn't designed for it and currently does not have fully support for it. So I have no clue what graphical issues are going to happen. But the fact that v3.0 runs fine, is probably due to the current on-going work. Since I'm not going to do any further work on v2.0x, you can just ignore the error.

Sorry Aleksey but we are currently focused on Line Of Defense, the UCCE 2.0 upgrade (The Lyrius Conflict DLC) as well at the Line Of Defense Tactics XboxOne version (which goes into cert next week for release in Q4).

I wrote an extensive article about our history together. Enjoy.

You can now download this patch for the paid v2.0

2009 Paid Version The standalone patch (available via separate download next week) does the following: applies the 2.00.03 patch adds the new content from 2.00.02 (Steam freeware version) NOTE: If you installed the full game in your Steam folder so you could run it from Steam, then the patch should work I think. I can't guarantee it though; so you're on your own. 2015 Steam Freeware Version The DLC for the freeware 2015 Steam version of the game, does the following: applies the 2.00.03 patch brings it up to the 2009 paid version by adding all the content that was excluded from the freeware

The standalone 2.00.03 patch (also included in The Lyrius Conflict DLC) for the paid (non-Steam) UCCE 2.0 will be released next week. I need to build it for all versions due to the DRM used in them. When I do that, I will post the links here. As mentioned on the DLC store page, this (and all future) DLC is only for the Steam version of UCCE 2.0. So, if you have the paid version of the 2009 UCCE 2.0, you don't need to buy this DLC if you only want the patch. Also, now that the code has been branched, this 2.00.03 patch will be the final patch for the 2009 UCCE 2.0 build. No further patches will be released for that legacy product. So, consider this as a gift for your support.

I have updated the changelog with new entries. Also a new status update.

No. The original 2009 version has various DRM releases (Digital River, SecuROM, GameFly, Gamers Gate) and I would have to release patches for all of them. I don't plan on doing that since support for that 2009 version ended a long time ago. The 2015 free version is an anniversary edition released for a specific reason and it's just one version to patch. Which is why it only has the Commander careers. For those who want the new content, I will post instructions on how to copy them over from the Steam version; but the executable cannot be patched.

There is a new build coming out soon. More info in the Steam forums.

Yeah, lots of hints and tips on the game's Steam Community Forum

They are different versions, and the previous v2.0 has more features than this free re-release. There are no plans to release any other version for free. If you like the game, please post a review on the game's Steam reviews page.

I have been thinking about completing their storyline actually; so we'll see how that goes if this game ever gets made.
