[quote] Well, no one every joins the games I create, lol. My ISP is provided by my University via T1. I don't think they'd block any ports. I can call and see, but I doubt it.

[quote] Is it possible to run Sins across two monitors in fullscreen mode or must I run it in windowed and lose AA support? What video card do you have? AA should work fine in windowed mode. [/quote] I have an 8800gtx with the latest drivers and from what I've heard AA only works in Fullscreen mode with the latest drivers. It's also been my experience running the few select games I run, Eve Onlin
Thanks, I was just confused because I was checking my My documents games folder and the installation folder and neither had a settings file. Thanks for the help.
[quote] The link seems to be broken. I must say though, Sins looks beautiful with everything cranked all the way. Love how the ships look with all the detail. Personally I really like the Advent designs. [/quote]
Sorry to post in this thread. Is it possible to run Sins across two monitors in fullscreen mode or must I run it in windowed and lose AA support?
I'm sorry if this is posted somewhere else, I did a little searching and didn't find anything so I thought I might as well ask. Where is the file I can edit to place custom resolution, or is there no file? I have 2 monitors that I love to stretch games over even though I almost always need to edit a file to use a 3360x1050 resolution.
I just downloaded the soundtrack and I have to give you props for it.It's by far the most pleasing out of game that I've heard in a long time, other soundtracks work in game but when you listen to them when walking or with people over they tend not to down so well - Sins soundtrack however is very pleasing to the ear. Anyway thats all I had to say.
If you run lots of applications at once quad core really is the way to go, and with todays prices and the overclocking potential of quads you'd have to be crazy not to go that route unless you only use your pc for gaming running no background processes. It future proofs your pc far more than a dual core does.
[quote] Any news on retail availablity outside of the US? would love to pick-up a copy in the UK really. Buy online downloadable copy - do you really have to have a box ? [/quote] It's nice, my video gaming habit is as much about collecting as it is playing - though I won't spend too much to satisfy the collection part.
[quote] Add me to the list of people not wanting to see the GalCiv series incorporate any gameplay elements from Sins. Keep turn-based games turn-based! That applies to tactical battles too! [/quote] This. Usually when someone says no to a post on the internet its to whatever suggestion was made, rather than the statements they made.
[quote] And I very much hope you don't. Keep turn based games turn based and leave the real time stuff to the real time games, please. That's not to knock either genre, mind you. I disagree, Sins is not your traditional Warcraft. At the very least I think they should consider incorporating the beautiful and sleek engine to the battles themselves. [/quote] No... just... no.
Did he not say to keep it off torrents? People people come on.
Niiiiice, now no one dam well better torrent that editor!
I'm interested in this too. I can run it at 3360x1050 as long as I have it in windowed mode, but every pop up window appears in the middle and its frustrating to read across the gap between my monitors. However on the plus side its gorgeous! I'm willing to put up with it because for the most having double the screen real estate is a huge plus.
Ah thank you.
I tried submitting a bug report via the submit problem option in Stardock Central (Help-online Support-submit Problem) but it keeps failings so I'll post it here. I tried to update to the latest Twilight of the Arnor version, 0.96[b].001 and the update failed. I'll post the report below. -- [Application] ---------------------------------------------------- Name: Stardock Central Path: C:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral Version: 2.49.500, build: 162<br
[quote] What I'd really like, is for the ability to design the starbases in the shipyard. Let them have their own special parts system(if possible), and for example when I design a Military Starbase with a Warp Accelerator, three Rail Cannons and a Sniper Drone module, I get to choose which of those modules I want to install when I bring a constructor to a new Military Starbase. That, and it would make the Drengin able to design starbases on rocks, which would be awesome
You know you can turn off events like that don't you? This event and others like it are intended to seriously upset the power balance of the galaxy, and 5-10 planets is not enough to do that (in most cases).
One of the reasons that Obsidions games are so buggy and unfinished is that the publisher doesn't give them alot of room to work with if the games not 100%, they're actually contractually forced to release the game before they want to. At least thats what they said for KOTOR2, they're not allowed to work on it till its done they work on it up to the deadline and then its thrown out.
Hellz no, the AI just annoys the heck out of me.
Open clusters or w/e its called and lots of planets, to maximimize its ability to micromanage.
I have the strange desire to pay/donate more for this game... If all expansions even tried to add half of what you guys are adding.. I mean wow this is almost more than a new game.
[quote] The game ends when it ends. There's no time limit, so yes you can play until you win. I mean with no victories. For example, if I whip everyone else on the galaxy and win by conquest, can I do what I do in Civ: "Wait! Just... one... more... turn... !" ? Thanks guys! Sadly, no you can't. Once you achieve a victory the game ends and it's time to start a new game. If you'
[quote]It get's no high profile attention. How do you define 'high profile attention' for a game? PC Gamer? G4 TV? Penny Arcade?[/quote] I would like to disagree, well with the statement than GAlCiv2 gets no high profile attention. At release both PA and CAD raved about it, and there's no way you can say those websites are low profile by any measure. in fact CAD just talked about the upcoming expansion pack on the front page, and linked to this website. I wou
Wow, you guys just keep outperforming yourselves. I wonder, is the fact we're surprised about the quality and quantity of this expansion more a commentary on Stardock's dedication to excellence or the lack of present in other games.
