Achronous

It's basically only available through Steam so yeah, it's guaranteed. Don't know if Steam can handle Altarian magic though ;p

It does seem to crop up for some people and not for others. Makes me wonder if it's a specific version of drivers for a specific video card. Would you let us know the driver number and the card you have? Perhaps we can ask everybody who has the same problem to do the same in this thread. This was we could help Stardock as well.

Does it still persist if you reinstall the game?

I had a £20/~$40 steam wallet balance from a birthday gift and used it all. Got about 4-5 games if I remember correctly. I started with Mortal Kombat Komplete, which is actually really fun. I expected it to be the arcade style, but the story mode is actually really really good.

Isn't an expansion to Age of Wonders III coming soon?

Yes, that's right, thanks andros. You can use it to end turn and then turn it back on till you get to the broken idle ship and repeat... Not ideal, buf if you want to continue that game...

I suggest starting another game and retrying. Something similar happened to me in the before this update and there was a command I used to get past it (somthing about actionturns, but I'm not sure need to check).

Sounds like a bug needs squishing :P

I think this sounds great from team vs team gameplay perspective! It doesn't even need to be two galaxies! If the map is large enough then you can pretend it's two arms of the spiral galaxy. Why stop there, we can move on to having maps similar to Civilization. Come to think about it, GalCiv2 had custom maps that catered to team play.

the popup screen annoys me as well...

You just choose the Build nothing from the starport list. If that doesn't work, try using the quick build command and choose nothing...

Just seen other threads reporting the planetary thumbnails missing as well. I would be curious to see if their planetary screens are showing/missing.

I like the tech tree. I assume it's going to be changed a lot in the future, but I like the direction it's going to. I like the animation in the researched technologies. It doesn't only look good but it conveys the information that you are done researching this and that technology. I will probably add to this thread as I play with it a bit more, but for now I would like to make a suggestions. Can you make it so that when you double click one of the four options/secti

Starting with the current Alpha (0.3.0) some of the planetary screens are not visible. See screenshots below: Planet surface missing: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=275894267 Earth surface missing: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=27589431

In the previous alpha it happened every time after I exited the shipyard. In this alpha only after the first time. No unlocks.

As the title says, after I exit the shipyard, the whole game slows down for a few seconds. It seems like all the textures are being reloaded or something. I didn't see it happening in the Dev stream so I'm not sure if it's something that happens only to me. I had this bug in the previous alpha and the current alpha as well.

Woop, noticed a download in the background and thought a game I just bought on the sale was updating, but even better it's GC :)

Looking good :)

Thanks Jack. Yes, it's because I wanted to make sure I am running the alpha with a recent set of drivers, to confirm that any bugs are because of the game and not artefacts of old drivers. I have updated to 14.4 drivers and so far things seem to be ok. I didn't run any sort of performance benchmarks, but I seem to be getting less slowdowns right after I close the shipyard now.

Cool, I've been looking forward to that! Not that I could afford a 3D printer just for that though :P

Hmm, maybe I just did something wrong. The autodetect certainly didn't work for me. I'll try to download them manually. How about performance? I know people tend to stick with certain sets of drivers instead of updating all the time as they provide better performance in games than others. I didn't update mine for a while because of this. Thanks

I was going for Age of Strife as well but was beaten to it :P

Hiya all, I just wanted to ask for advice which drivers I should be using with my Radeon 6800. I have some older drivers installed (13.251, as Windows reports) from the 06th Dec 2013. I think I tried going to the ATI site and download the catalyst control centre and update my drivers to the latest, my I seem to remember that it said they no longer supported it. Is that true or am I remembering wrong? Which drivers are people using and getting the best performance with windows 8 6

Nice to see the game advancing. If you want our opinions on the symmetry/amount of weapons shown and are actually equipped, I think that for functional parts the game should show how many are actually equipped, and not how many duplicated by symmetry etc. For decor then go it it doesn't matter, but for weapons and armor then it's important as it might push people to down a research path just so they can deck their ships out how they want and strive for that cool weapon!

Thanks for including European times, I always get confused with how many time zones the US has (and where they are start/finish!)
