Beta 4 Invisible weapons fire

December 14, 2007 12:12:43 PM from Sins of a Solar Empire ForumsSins of a Solar Empire Forums
I am not sure if this has been mentioned I tried to search but nothing came up so here it goes.

I played a 1v1 game verses CPU on a random medium game. Played as Vasari CPU was TEC. In larger battles the projectiles from ships were missing. They show up periodically but then disappear again. Also in some cases the impact effects do not go off on enemy ships. The shield effects happen but no impact effects. And when destroying an enemy station while the weapons are invisible the station simply disappears, no explosion, just vanishes.

I am running on:
Intel 2.6 ghz dual core
1 gb of RAM
Windows XP Media SP2
ATI Radeon X1300 Pro 256mb PCI-E

Never heard or experienced something like this before.

Does it help when you lower the graphic settings?

yeah, it happens, once a cvertain ammounts of effects are on screen (particles) they vanish.
Happens often with space jump as there are a lot of them flying around aswell.
Easily some of the ships don´t have them.

Yeah I notice this when I play as well. Usually only happens after an hour or so ingame, I always figured it was related to my hardware though, because I've seen it happen on other games in a similar fashion.
