So its not just me. I have tried that map several different way and I get wiped everytime by having 2 massive fleets attackign me at the same time.

/sign I would love to have a variety of conditions that could be set up for either single or multi-player. That definitly would make the game much better.
Nvm, I installed it wrong. did not copy the textures file over, just pasted in yours.
I etiehr installed thsi mod wrong or this is something wrong with it because when I enable it, it crashes everything in the game and I cannot even see the buttons to start a new games....just a big blank white box.
Please forgive my newbness, but after downloading this mod, installing it and activating it in game. I started a new single player game and I did not notice any difference. How do you get mods to work?
I didnt think the Vista SP was officially available until next month?
You may just need to re-install the game. I am running Vista 64, but have not install the SP yet.
I love that idea!! I would love to have a giant Super Star Destroyer type ship that deals devistation to my enemies. I know it would cost a bundle, but oh what fun it would be.
You may be over thinking this, but just for sake of argument lets say that one technology depends on another being developed. Sometimes new techs have side effect uses and the Gauss Cannons benefit from new Auto Cannon developments. In other words, tech can have other uses besides what they were developed for.
Nice post and I think you make a good point. It almost makes me want to start over with a new game.....almost.
Nice work and thanks for your efforts....It will make my games that much more fun.
I dont ever get any slowdowns of any kind, the game runs great no matter what is happening on screen or what buttons I am pushing (Alt, etc). FRAPS shows me running 75FPS most of the time and it can dip down to 60FPS in large battles. I have everything maxed out as far as settings in the game go. Windows Vista 64 (Current on all MS updates) Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 EVGA 680i Mo/Bo (Latest BIOS) 2GB Corsair SLI RAM (2x1GB) Geforce 8800 GTS (640MB version) C
I am running dual monitors and I have no problems. The other monitor functions just fine while playing Sins. Sure would be cool if Sins supported dual monitors ala Supreme Commander.
I have had everything enabled including bloom on my Geforce 8800 since day one with no problems at all. This is on a Vista 64bit system though, I wonder if all you guys having problems are on 32bit systems?
Game runs great for me on a Vista 64, Core 2 Duo and Geforce 8800GTS system. And dont bother listening to the trolls that bash Vista, most of the time its guys that dont even own Vista, so they only repeat dogma that they have read and dont really know what they are talking about.....its quite pitiful really.
I would like to be able to enter a name in single player games so I wasnt simply known as New Player.
The Honor series rocked. Damn fine writer. His new series started with Off Armageddon Reef was one of the finest sci-fi books I have read in a long, long time. And yes, this game does remind me of Weber's work.
[quote]Ironclad's already said they plan to release more graphical goodies in updates throughout the year. [/quote] Sweet!!!! Thank you so much, you guys rock!!
[quote]More debris, more breakage! Wrecks drifting in space, even Freespace 2 style capital ship destruction would be awesome. More / greater effects would be awesome. And undoubtedly possible using DX9. However, just make sure they are adjustable in the menu and not permanent changes. That way, everyone wins [/quote] E
I understnad about making the game as playable as possible across as many platforms as possible, but there should be options for those that have higer end rigs to get better graphics. Dx10 does not have to be added from the beggining. Lord of the Rings Online added Dx10 graphics months after the game launched. So DX10 can still be added to Sins. Turbine could make some sort of high resolution/partical effects, etc pack to download and install as an option.
While I did not play in Beta, I perused plenty of screen shots prior to buying this game and they looked pretty good. I have a high end rig so I cranked up all the graphic settings to max and while the graphics are ok, they are not as jaw dropping as I expected them to be. Ships blowing up suddenly go from undamaged models to chunks of rubble in a flash rather than breaking up slowly as I would expect. Is there plans for graphic updates or a DX10 executable/options?
I just bought a copy as well. I am a long time Stardock customer and love playing GalCiv games. You wont be dissapointed and the cool part is that years from now, you can still download Sins and play anytime you want. Stardock lets you download games that you have purchased forever.
Being a long time fan of the GC series, what is the differance between GC and Sins?
Awesome Mod!! I got it downlaoded and started palying it.....it blew me awy with how much work must have gone into this mod. I have to give the Authors a big time thank you for thier hard work and time. Will there ever be a simple download for high res videos?
