why would you post losses?? Hey now! I resemble this remark! As you might have noticed for my meta submits they are ALL losses... As my empire name states, there are 'standards' to uphold, even in the 'competition' that is the metaverse. First of all it wouldn't be fair of

We have worked around this by using a different call when the processor is an AMD so all is well. All I have to say to this comment is
Installed beta 5 test 2, fired up the game. No graphical glitches on the Arcean ship and an just incredible increase in FPS! Whatever you did, keep doing it! You lucky dog you! I noticed you're running an Intel vs. AMD so this might be why there's no graphics corruption. Still, AMD AND Nvidia will remain the 'top dogs' in my book... even if they are a bit 'slow' out of the gate. Any new info regarding all of this?
Hey General, go check out my rap song! I want your critique!
Yo GeneralEtrius, Your words are coming off like detritus, Some of this stuff is so lame, You know it, Yet you can't take a flame, Honor and praise from Stardock you crave, But everyone knows that rap is headed to the grave! Find a new medium to express yourself, As I find this tedium causes me to enrage myself... *and now for a quote from a REAL rapper* "So check yourself before you wreck yourself cause shotgun bullets are bad for your health" Cour
making this sexcellent game Sexcellent? Did I miss some other 'X-Rated' version here? What gives Stardock? You guys have an 'adult themed' GC II floating around out there?
I have a low end system and I am getting this crash as well. Didn't mean to single you out Scintor... You seem to be the first one to admit having problems on a 'lower end' system whereas the usual response I get is someone rubbing it in my face that my 'higher end' rig sucks while they can play their game without issues. I should have stressed 'most' people in my
the Galactic Geriatrics or the Galactic Geezers... the Geritol Grandfolk the Rheumatism Raiders the Arthritic Astronauts... someone stop me already... the Senile Spacewalkers... or even the Dusty Denizens! How about the Cane Wielding Cruisers? the Polygrip Protagonists... the PreCursor PreCursors? Okay, here's a good one, the Ancient Alliance! No? <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smiles/Gasp.gif" border=0 align="
had stopped their problems by changing the Page file to let windows manage it. Has this worked? I myself am baffled anymore. I don't get the out of memory error but do get the memory write error as I experience a CTD. Other CTD's seem to happen randomly with no prompts regarding memory issues. But, after reading the thoughts regarding AMD processors experiencing issues with the latest beta builds, in the beta thread by Cari, it seems there is more
Tried the newest beta put out here by Cari... same graphics issues. I notice them on the race selection screen where they show a preview of your ship. After reading what Brad posted regarding DirectX SDK... are you guys going to implement this and if so, when? I think it's 'safe' to assume that just about all of us are running on XP, at least, so I guess those unfortunate few might have to finally upgrade as some of us had to do throughout all of this, eh? <img src="http://images.sta
Those who are old enough to remember it need hear no more . . . Yeah, thanks CornhuskerMac. Now I can spend the rest of the day reliving the eighties and seeing the little blue haired lady barking for her beef. Nice... you little...
Please let me know if I'm not clear about something. I'm not a computer guy Transparently clear CornhuskerMac! No, the 'cheating' issue wasn't one of my main concerns but I really try not to 'categorize' bugs/issues. What might be minor to me could be quite major to another, true? Seems like maybe we're hitting onto something with these AMD processors so maybe there is still hope for an ignorant evil one such as myself. We'll see!
It might help if those of you getting the graphical glitch check the AMD website for updates; if downloading an update from AMD corrects it, we can just add that to the readme and knowledgebase. No recent updates over at AMD as far as I could tell. I went there this morning to see if there was anything (at least for my processor which is an AMD Athlon 64 3800 single core ) but all there really is are downloads for linux versions and dual core processor
By the way, nVidia does not seem to be releasing any new drivers for the GeForce 7 series. Well they already have a beta driver for the 7 series... I downloaded just today, but haven't installed it yet. Goes from 93.71 to 94. something. So, there is still support for the 7 series. Check out Nvidia's website and let me know if I'm wrong about this, but it's definitely worth checking out... it's a balloon ad for the beta, in the downloads area but not li
I can't see a ban as a valid threat in your case. Brad was more than a little miffed at me over in the Beta thread started by Carielf... that was the 'threat' that I was speaking of, but water under the bridge at this point. Mottikhan, I know I can always count on you for your input on things and as always, thank you. But you've read what I've posted in the past so I guess my tongue does get me into trouble from time to time as I seem to be more prone t
bump Is there even a reason to have a vote at this point? I haven't seen any recent activity with regards to what update will have what.
Does anyone else find this? That there's no point playing past 2 years cause the out come is a foregone conclusion? Well, when I do get to play for more than two years there are a LOT of variables that come into play. If you aren't actually getting the victory message at the end of your '2 years', then how do you truly know you've won? This game throws man
My two cents... AMD processor here as well with Nvidia 7600GT. Graphics corruption on mine as well, but still looking for the mem fixes. Why, you thinking maybe it's an AMD thing?
How often do you guys have the saves set to? My auto saves were set to the default 12 turns. At one point in time I took someone's suggestion and set the autosave to EVERY turn, just to insure that if there was a problem, at least I could reload. Then there was some rumor floating that maybe some of the CTD issues, among other related ones, were because of a memory leak or something to that effect, so I turned it off completely and just relied on luck a
So I figured I'd use this thread to take a bite of some 'humble pie' and just say to all, sorry for some of my rants regarding this game. To the devs, you guys have a great game here and yes, your support is amazing in my experiences with you. I ranted about DL yet you knew you had my money and 'support' for DA and you know you will have both for whatever comes down the pipe with future GC titles. Forgive my ignorance at times but remember that I'm still behind you and
Mottikhan, Mumblefratz, I apologize that you guys had to read through this stupidness. As you might have gleaned, I have been having a HORRIBLE Monday after an abysmal weekend. My posts probably show it as I am running on a VERY short fuse at the moment. My best bet at this point is to quit typing and just ride out the day... sorry guys, and sorry devs for my rants over the new beta. I just wanted to play my frigging game, that's all I was trying to do. Later guys. Don't be too harsh on me
Haha, Yeah, rude ones! I just got a message from good ol' Kryo. Lets put it like this. WheelofFire is in big trouble! Glad to see people get a kick out of ganging up on someone... Oh, waaaaaaaaaaaaah, someone's picking on me for being a loser, whatever will I do? I know, cry enough to get them banned, yeah, that's what I'll do... cry a freaking river of woe... because I am a dork who can't rap or rhyme... or get a girl, or a life, or
EvilStormbringer has no taste I created that song for fun, and he puts up !!!!! Oh my god Stormbringer, I wish you could have some taste for this Etrius Dude, young kid or not, don't use my name with your stupid shit okay? I come here to read intelligent (usually) comments from people who have the same intellect... reading this STUPID non-rap crap is really annoying. To the devs, if you wish to let him
Oh, I see how it is. Chastise Wheel for acting the way he did, and then ban him after that but yet ignorant glee at someone else's misfortune is condoned? Kryo, I cant thank you enough!! Everyone light fireworks!!! WheelofFire is GONE!!! No more nasty comments. Evil Stormbringer. I feel bad for your loss of your friend, OK? But he was very mean. I appreciate your support for me!!
Stardock is doing US a favor by allowing us inside access to the beta version of the patches. Sometimes you guys have a twisted view on things. They are allowing us inside access to help iron out bugs that their admittedly small staff doesn't have the time to look into. Therefore they are 'insuring' future purchases of their software by doing so... don't ever tell me they are just "doing it for us". Sorry if you guys feel that I'm being harsh with this,
