I think I've been having this issue is well, but I don't understand what it is or the solution. Could somebody please clarify?

The history of open-source Allegiance is paved with the bodies of dead code branches, forum flame wars, and personal vendettas. But a community remains because people still love the game.

Allegiance requires the Microsoft API DirectPlay which is no longer installed by default in Windows 10 (or 8 too I believe). You have to install it by opening control panel (http://www.isunshare.com/windows-10/7-ways...windows-10.html) and then click on Programs followed by Turn windows features on or off. Expand Legacy Components, check DirectPlay, and click OK.
