[quote who="boshimi336" reply="7154" id="3130144"]I believe Stant123 might have posted a few pages back what components of your machine have the most significant impact on your game as far as hardware goes. To help reduce lag a little bit, completely un-pin all items from your Empire Tree (on the left hand side of the screen) and set all graphics settings to Low.[/quote] you can also look this over again boshimi <a href="https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.c
Good Idea: asking about progress on a mod you like, or are interested in. Bad Idea: going into a modding forum and pissing on what modders do(seems obvious right?) What might happen: Finished mods get uploaded to where you can't access them(I'd do it, at least for a while =P) How to fix this: Quit forums / apologize / Do it yourself / Grow up / Stop being a douche(or make an attempt at this one
[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="1" id="3129345"]If your quick start stuff isn't showing up anymore, that'd be GalaxyScenarioDef. Never edit the base game files! Always make copies and put them in a mod so you don't have the redownload problem. [/quote] and ALWAYS HAVE A BACKUP FOLDER! Some things you wish you'd learned earlier on....and some things you think"oh I'll be ok witho
Lookin forward to some good work NR2001. If you have any questions about anything just throw up a question on the forums, the locals are pretty good about getting back to you....if we know the answer that is, lol. If you're looking into Knight's SFX mod, you should also look around for some other weapon effect alterations too(I personally enjoy the small pew pew lasers being turned into beams =3) Actually looking into some weapon alterations myself(just colors) trying
[quote who="-Ue_Carbon" reply="7140" id="3128100"] Quoting Leuthesius, reply 7138Map "The AI Horde" is completely messed up. Very buggy when you zoom in on many of the planets for the AI's. You can't see anything even though you should be able to see things--even your own ships. (By the way... whats the point of the two other stars?) The AI Horde doesn't work right, b/c Galaxy Forge hates it. Ive rewo
k, so I found the skybox.manifest, apparently it got deleted at some point in my mod files because when I checked my backups it was there. Remember kids, when you've lost a file, check backups, and ALWAYS HAVE BACKUPS, or you end up making embarrassing posts highlighting your silly mistakes o.o ...like I did Moving on, I tried slipping in some skyboxes from Novus Universum, and only the skyboxes. I took out DS' 2 added(the environment cubes are just a tad too bright fo
but still, you can search the list for Distant Stars, Stars, Sci-Fi mod(star wars vs star trek), and many others I blank on names about.... yeah, just scroll down, most active ones are on the front page
1st: Locate the hanger entity files in your game;s install area(c:/programs(x86 for win7)/Stardock Games/Sins of a solar empire/Diplomacy/) look for Hangar Defense.Entity (all of them if you want to change them all 2nd: if you don't already have it, Download Notepad++ it will safe you hours of squinting at little lines of smushed up text in notepad 3rd: COPY the files you wish to alter into a new folder(your
Take THAT ice planet!......what.....no explode?...*sigh* I'm goin back to playing space invaders*pew pew sounds come from command console of Vasari captain*
*ahem* anyway...been tinkering with the mines, case testing the TEC only atm. BUT in the mean time, anyone wanna take a stab at looking for the icon meshes for them and reducing them to possibly a speck? Amendment: Also, so far everything I try to alter either results in crash upon detonation. Or they just become floating hulks of phased out nothing....they lose their ability basically. Additional targets through the abilities also seems a no go. Did manage to get them
I think I ran into the same problem a while back, but i think someone already either released a small fix(buried back some 15-20 odd pages ago) or I minidumped from my tinkering. I remember it got a little mad about some of my defensive tweaks to the platforms(especially the gauss abilities, good lord it had a damn aneurism when I modified those >.>) learned that the biggest issue apparently was the missile's target number, and adding a stack counter to the debuff on the BFG(big fri
I've been so hammered with school work I havn't even touched the mine's abilities beyond moving them into a separate folder -.-; AHHHHH I Want spring break!!!!!! x.x
Also, if you know a little, tweaking the "tracking range" of homing mines, and the blast radius of the other mines makes it so that one little bastard that flew too close, just wiped out him and his friends ;p for myself: working on getting the mines to set each other off in one SPECTACULAR fireworks display , but the friend foe issue is a little bit of a problem ;p though, as long as the explosion is only triggered by enemies, and can effect allies i won't mind, just have
*stretches the watch to let it contract over and over*...ah....wish i wasn't so listless today........disappointed myself with expectations of another girl >.> listening to her talk got grading and so left <.< yammering on about facebook, what her friends did, all her new crap from Christmas...failed to speak anything about herself......surely my expectations aren't high..all I require is a personality and self awareness....the rest are just p
*chucks Thrall's hammer at Carbon* I have 4 papers to write, reciprocal teaching assignments, and I'm goin on dates man, and I still have time to contribute/antagonize DS team while tinkering in the mod. Common Carbon, you're better than all that noise, i know you can push DS back into the schedule. Just imagine how backwards it would be if I ended up in the DS "contribution" list and had my name in there on the loading screen >.> even weirds me out a bit<
ah Steam,just when you think the game can't get any better, they release an unnecessary patch that does the exact opposite and then you have to reinstall and deny the patch each time you log in.....ah "progress" .....honestly have nothing to contribute this time.....just making the above statement o.o

Happy map making, upload some to the map site(it's slow as Christmas but there's a lot of them up there...some nutty ones too with over 1k planets as well -.-; ) <
yeah but looking at WoW 90% of all the free mmos out there, there's practically No difference besides number of servers...that's about it. For me to ACTUALLY pay to play something online, it has to be original, not rehashed crap like WoW tries to push off (yes, played wow,have a few friends who are leaving it now, they stayed because of 'promises of new content' and got rehashed crap) but that's enough of my ranting, this isn't the place for P2P mmo bashing, and the ra
