[quote who="tjimagineer" reply="1119" id="3917675"] I am having an issue where the AI is not building embassies very much and the auto build doesn't happen. The ai will send envoy ships to my planets but they will just sit there and not build the embassy. Is there a way to modify it so that it will build them more readily and more quickly? [/quote] That's kinda been happening since the addition of embassies sadly. It seems the ship get's stuck trying to move outside the grav

Hi, thanks for the awesome mod! Just wanted to mention a few bugs. I posted them on Mod DB, but I forgot about the forums here so I'll re-post them here. Not sure if any of these are related to the mod or not. VCC Titan looses it's mind when it teleports I don't remember if I played VCC since updating the mod last time, but this round the titan forgets it's orders every time it uses it's teleport skill. I've only been able to use it in a squad that gives it ne

[quote who="Maiden666" reply="2017" id="3871236"] But the worst is trading for IPs. [/quote] Seriously. I found I can get several terraforming techs, then sell them to the minor races for tons of IPs and I get my way with voting for the rest of the game. Does buying IPs increase your chance to 'flip' other planets? Or is that just based off of IP production?

Ya, it's working normally all afternoon as far as I could tell, awesome that it's working, but a pain in trying to track down bugs. :) Thanks for the help!

Reply to Null Pointer crash every time we try to play LAN after last update in Sins of a Solar Empire Stardock Forums

I don't know what is going on here... I got two of the computers fired up, tried The Void, and it worked. I tried the Galaxy Forge map we were originally trying, and it crashed without even doing the mini-dump on my computer, but the second computer loaded it fine. I loaded the map in single player on my computer and it worked. I tried some other maps of all three types (Galaxy Forge, Map Designer, and Default maps). They worked. I looked at the map in

Sweet, thanks! Hopefully I get some time in the next two days to do some more testing for you. I'm running Windows 10, playing on Steam, we had three players, and I think we tried it with just two players, but my memory is fuzzy right now. We usually do an "us three vs AI's" in comp stomp maps that I make in galaxy forge when we've played in the past.

Null Pointer crash every time we try to play LAN after last update in Sins of a Solar Empire Stardock Forums

Since these last updates whenever we try to start a game in LAN it crashes as soon as it loads. Crashes at the same time on three different computers with different maps and no mods. I'd love to get some help with this. I've been playing this game since it came out on disk years ago. Here's the summary of the memory dump from WinDbg, it's pretty much the same on all three computers: ************* Path validation summary ************** Response Time (ms) Location<b

I don't remember what the bug was... if I don't write it down there's little chance I'll remember. I'll write stuff down as I come across it. Thanks for the update though, I won that last round easily and just barely started a new one.

Reply to GalCiv 2 Ultimate Edition Community Update in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

Awesome, thanks!!! Ya, this game has hooked me, I've put in 500+ hours in the last couple years. It doesn't require as much planning in the grand scheme of things as other 4x's have so regularly play a round in my rotation. I do see people occasionally asking questions on the Steam forums so players are still out there. I do like it a lot more than Civ 3. Too bad my save can't be fixed, it's about the best starting area I've ever had. :) There was another thing that I was sure was a b

Reply to GalCiv 2 Ultimate Edition Community Update in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

Hoping to catch someone's attention here, but it seems there's a bug in the Drath Legion tech tree with this mod. Either that or I'm missing something. I've got the beta version installed on Steam, then 6.2.3 mod downloaded from above. I researched "Military Starbase Fortification" but the next tech "Starbase Mobilization" is still greyed out. It doesn't mention any other prerequisite techs, and it doesn't unlocking anything else. I imagine this is something that can be modded

Reply to [MOD] 7 DEADLY SINS : by DANMAN GAMES (DANMAN3712) ver 2.5 FINAL AVAILABLE to the PUBLIC! in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Ah, I guess the games on the new version just seemed the same as the old version because I lost to the Arilou the first game I played of 2.5b and in the second game I had the same described issues with those little Punisher type ships, but it may have been different. I haven't played as the KohrAh and Arilou in this version yet to see if they were changed, just played against them. The KorAh used to spawn free ships from their capital ship labs, so that's where I thought

It's awesome to see such a huge mod with so many new races, thank you for making it! I played v2.1 of your mod for a long time until I finally got around to buying Trinity and I got to test the beta a little with Entrenchment. You guys have done great work. I've done a lot of modding in other games and I know you can't make a mod that pleases everyone. :) I just wanted to share my thoughts on some things that I feel would make the mod more fun.

Reply to Mouse/Camera oversensitive in Technical Sins Forums

@Thoumsin - I know it's not the latest version, and running on a VM is asking for trouble, and so is running an old mod like 7DS 2.1. What bothered me was their frank unwillingness to even consider the problem as soon as I said iMac. I got the game used. I'm not sure how many owned it in the past but I plan to send it to someone else when Rebellion comes out. That way if the key does still work the next guy can register it if he wants to keep it. &nbs

Reply to Mouse/Camera oversensitive in Technical Sins Forums

I have the same issue on parallels on my iMac using Vanilla Sins v1.05, I move the mouse the slightest amount and the camera jumps 90 degrees. It does the same thing with my trackpad so it appears to be the game's issue. I've messed with the OS's mouse sensitivity settings and with the game resolution and they

Reply to A few questions in Sins of a Solar Empire Stardock Forums

[quote who="Wrath89" reply="5" id="3020878"] Allegiance is determined by how many phase lines are between your homeworld and the target planet. If your homeworld happens to be close to the star, your other planets in other star systems close to their star will have slightly higher allegiance. I think. If there are 6+ jumps between your HW and the planet though, the planet can only have an allegiance of 25% (max 35% with culture). [/quote] How often

Reply to Does sins require a CAMPAIGN? in Sins of a Solar Empire Stardock Forums

Just my two bits: I NEVER play campaigns anymore on any game. Just the single player skirmish type maps or multiplayer comp stomp games. As long as there is a good AI and a good save feature, I'll approve of almost any game.

Reply to How do you update this game? I have the vanilla version. in Sins of a Solar Empire Stardock Forums

Well... my wife says she likes it because it's not as stressful as other RTS games. In games like Age of Empires or Starcraft, taking a few seconds to make a decision could cost you the game. In Sins you can queue up stuff so you have time to think, and even if you don't decide right away things are automated enough that you won't die while you figure out what to do.

Reply to How do you update this game? I have the vanilla version. in Sins of a Solar Empire Stardock Forums

Wait... Rebellion includes the full package? Why are you guys encouraging me to buy Trinity? :) I think I'm hooked enough that I'll buy the game. It looks like it's hitting the right stage of maturity that it's worth buying now. It's got some good modding tools, patches to fix most the errors, expansions to fix the weak spots. Plus my wife likes it better than the other RTS games we have. :)

Right now $20 is more than I can afford. :) And with this new expansion coming out I think I'll wait until they offer an even better deal. I do have a question about this Impulse thing though that I can't find on their website clearly explained. I usually get video games to play with my family. My wife and I play Civilization 4 and Heroes 5 together often, and we play Wii games with our kids. We're interested in

@Ryat, thanks for the link. I found the 7 Deadly sins v2.1 mod that works with v1.05 that seems pretty fun so far. We'll see where I go with the game :). I actually traded my old copy of Baldur's Gate for it on swap.com . I'm not sure if the serial code has been used or not. I don't want to activate it myself because I might trade it later and buy the game and expansions in a few years. Thanks fo

Install the program from the site eh... you probably get enough complaining about that around here so I'll try to avoid it. :) Thanks though, I must have missed that bit somewhere. Any advice on the mods though? I did finally find a link to download TSOP in these forums.

How do you update this game? I have the vanilla version. in Sins of a Solar Empire Stardock Forums

This game looks promising, I like it but I've run into some problems. It looks like I've jumped into yet another game that was developed in stages under the code name "expansions." I wish I'd known that before I bought the original version as I'm not interested in spending more money on the game for several years yet. I simply want a patch and a good expansion for the vanilla version. The update button in the game launcher just gets me to a 404 page.
