Reply to Seeing whole map in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Well if there were a way of setting it to auto skipping all error messages that would do even... -- Ok went and tried a different map and grabbed an urban, no problems. I think there might be an issue somewhere with a capship ability and something to do with the swamp planet, maybe the half and half time that it can be colonized. (I had only a Kol and Akkan in the system) just kept coming up in errors. All fixed now though, thanks!

Hmm was just trying that one actually. Though it didn't seem to like the DS mod as soon as i tried to colonize a swamp planet

Seeing whole map in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Just wondering what file I would have to change to see the whole map in a SP game, had a look through myself but couldnt work it out, By the way Distant Stars is the mod of the gods if you haven't tried it yet,,,

A bit of old Gen' knowledge needed in Everything Else Sins Forums

I love sins. I love being a hermit at times, and I therefore love my cactus plants as they are a bit like me... How often do you water cacti though??? I mean i know they dont need much and a friend of mine drowned his by accident Cheers

Reply to Commonwealth Of Nations Vs USA, Who would win? in Everything Else Sins Forums

[quote who="psychoak" reply="13" id="2469578"]An all out war between any nation and the US could result in total military and related infrastructure destruction within days. The US hasn't done anything resembling an all out war since WWII. There is no coming to aid and holding out anymore, that was antiquated with the modern jet and high grade explosives. The air war could be over within an hour of beginning. Europe couldn't even get there before it was finished.

Strange... worked fine for me, though even with 5 defense starbases (advent ones too) its still a struggle to hold on! So mines maxing out fine at a limit of 10 (only for pirate bases though)

Got it, cheers! Needed to download forgetools for the encoding.... hehe upped pirate bases to be super planets - kinda fun setting lots of AIs against you to be forced from your homeworld to move onto a newer better place

@ ice just had a poke around the game files but there is nowhere obvious that i could edit using note pad, would you happen to know where those files are?

Yep my mistake, just found the same map and tried again... though 4 in a star's... interesting indeed...

Reply to Starbase Limit Q in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Pretty certain that as TEC i had more than one SB in a gravity well... though that was a while back so can't find it in my autosaves to see if there was anything special about anything there

Starbase Limit Q in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I understand that in Entrenchment there are SB limits of 4 or 1 per gravity well. What is the defining factor that determines this? Is it star colour based? Map based? Random? I was just hoping there was a way to tell other than gettiing an SB constructor to try and build one only to be told SB limit reached for gravity well.

Sounds great! And after reading the forums a bit more i've decided for sure that when everyone in the house is asleep i'll leave the computer to download DA tonight. And i'll set an alarm for really early tomorrow morning (despite it being my holidays) so i can make the most of it Thanks for the info!

Oh and one more thing - how long does DA take to download if i buy it from Stardock? I have a 2.2MBps Connection so i doubt that will be the limiter (it's quite an issue cause the mother has a habit of closing evreything onscreen when she comes in including downloads, completed virus scans (before viruses are deleted)...

The spam-like email that made my day... maybe in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

It's been a long time since i've been on these forums. At least a good six months or so... I played GalCiv 2 (pre-Dark Avatar) till I could handle myself in any non-cheating AI free for all. Anyway i was checking my email this morning (a tedious task usually with so much spam mail) and noticed that as a GC2 owner i have a coupon for 20% off Dark Avatar This gave me a wild idea... I think i'll

Reply to Sol System Against the rest of the 'verse? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Thanx Kyro! It worked a charm. 72 PQ? I thought 50 was the max? Either way that would make it too easy! I only bumped it to 26 in the end to simulate one of those real brilliant planets you come across every now and then for Earth and then bumped the other planets to medium habitable ones appart from Jupiter. Out of interest, if i DID set the PQ to 72, what would the game do? wouldnt cause a crash would it? @ Alpha, you cant make a custom system for a custom race in game sadly. You ha

Sol System Against the rest of the 'verse? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Hello everyone. Just wondering if there is any way of editing the PQ of the Sol system... i have the urge to play in a huge chaotic galaxy with just the one system... trying to fend off invaders from everywhere else. Iv tried inhabiting 3 planet systems but its hopeles, the PQ is never high enough to support a whole race. If it works i think it could be interesting. Even a cheat to turn a planet habitable or
