    Added to wiki guide to toggling first-person POV

    Posted: 20 Dec 2020 09:09 PM PST

    Create l_fppov_on.txt in some location like C:\Program Files (x86)\Arc\Star Trek Online\Star Trek Online_en\Star Trek Online\Live.

    |Enter first-person FOV. Back up to a wall first. l "cam_distance_interp_speed 0 $$ CamMouseLook 0 $$ bind_load_file l_fppov_off.txt $$" 

    Create l_fppov_off.txt.

    |Exit first-person FOV. l "CamReset $$ bind_load_file l_fppov_on.txt $$" 

    Load the first keybind.

    /bind_load_file l_fppov_on.txt 

    Back up to a nearby wall, so that your view looks first-person only because the view behind you is blocked, then press L. Press L again to reset. This doesn't work well for combat, but it works well for getting a closer look at high-detail areas like Deep Space 9. Alternatively, instead of a toggle, you can use l.txt and the Home key's default setting to reset.

    |Enter first-person FOV. Back up to a wall first. l "cam_distance_interp_speed 0 $$ CamMouseLook 0 $$"

    STO Series X Load Times

    Posted: 21 Dec 2020 04:28 AM PST

    I play STO on Xbox One and for those of you who share the console with me, you probably share my pain with the load times. Anyone on here who has the Series X, what are the load times like? This question also extends to my friends on Playstation, how does the PS5 handle STO?

    Will I be able to obtain the imperial rift set?

    Posted: 20 Dec 2020 09:51 PM PST

    I missed out on the event, is there any other way to get it besides spend $45? Also, is it worth that? I run science heavy, but I don't really care about dps numbers. I want to have respectable numbers though.

    Is there a way to be completely invisible to another player?

    Posted: 20 Dec 2020 07:33 PM PST

    The long and short is that there's someone out there who is titanically creepy/stalkerish towards me, but in such a way that there's no meaningful evidence of it. Yes, I already ignored them, but that only goes so far. I want to just never see them or never have them see me ever again. Is this a thing? Can this please be a thing?

    Question About Vanity Shields

    Posted: 20 Dec 2020 12:21 PM PST

    So I have the Omega Vanity Shield - I really like the visuals from it on most ships - the blue nacelle front on the majority of my fed starships. However, when I put the vanity shields on my Gargarin, Edison, or a few other ships, it does not have the same visual effect? Is it supposed to be that way?

    Dark Trooper vs Pandalorian Who Wins???

    Recommend a Romulan science vessel to me

    Posted: 20 Dec 2020 05:36 PM PST

    So, I have enough now to get another new ship, and I was thinking of giving something to my Romulan Science/Intel toon. She is already flying around in a Faeht (which is awesome, albeit incredibly fragile), so I figured I would diversify her fleet a bit with another T6 vessel.

    Thus far, I've been considering:

    -A Flambard dreadnought (which I figure might not be worth it unless I get the entire Dreadnought bundle)

    -A Laeosa Multi-mission explorer

    -a Deihu command warbird

    -a Morrigu (just because I've always been a fan of the Mogai)

    Any ships you personally recommend, from this list or outside of it?

    Your go to non-FED/non-KDF/non-ROM starship

    Posted: 20 Dec 2020 12:55 PM PST

    What's your favourite non-FED, non-KDF, non-ROM starship? The ship you like to fly when you are tired of being soldier of the empire or federation captain.

    I've spent past year flying Miracle Worker Flight Deck Carrier, or if you prefer DONNIE. When I saw the ship in Discovery for the first time, I didn't expect to be flying it in STO. I liked the design, but it wasn't anything special to me. I used multiple different builds on it through out the year. The ship is excellent. I had a lot of fun with it. So it was definitely worth having it in my fleet. For a year I was flying exclusively the DONNIE.

    Then I switched to Mirror Constitution Warship. That ship with cannons is just a beast. Oh, and how I love the hull material they've put on it. Looks amazing.

    But recently I got bored. Don't get me wrong, I still love the design and it performs more than great. But I needed a change. I needed to fly something else, something different. I tried multiple ships that are available to me. I am with the game since 2014 and I own multiple C-Store, Lobi and Promotional ships. It's hard to pick just one from the long list. I knew I want something that is not exactly a starfleet ship.

    I switched to a Maquis Raider. I know technically it's a starfleet ship that was updated by Maquis and used in the fight against Cardassians. If I remember it correctly from Voyager's first episode, it's 100 years old ship. But it was exactly the change I needed. I put on Pulse Phaser Dual Beam Banks, because they suit this ship. They look pretty similar to what we saw in TNG/DS9/VOY episodes. I used a beam overload build for it, love the look of pulse phasers firing in overload. I can easily deal with any enemy in the game. DPS wise it's great. But most important to me is, I am enjoying the game again.

    What is your favourite ship you return to? It doesn't have to best DPS ship, maybe you just like the design, or you love the episode where the ship was featured in. Maybe it's just fun to fly. Feel free to share your favourite one in comments.

    How to change bridge officers?

    Posted: 20 Dec 2020 02:45 PM PST

    Hi, I'm new to the game. How can I change bridge officers? I'm playing in the Klingon faction. I've recived as reward for some missions new officers, but my bridge was already full: how can I switch between on duty and not on duty? Where can I see the list of all my not active officers? Thanks!

    Newbie to PC gaming needs advise. Unable to move during space combat.

    Posted: 20 Dec 2020 10:41 AM PST

    I'm not able to move/engage the enemy ships during space combat. Full impulse is grayed out. The impulse bar is all the way up. All I can do is move up, down, left, right.

    Is there a glitch? Am I doing something wrong?
