Similar problem. Played for roughly 15 minutes, only an engine glow for the Star Destroyer, then a crash.

Playing through Steam if that helps.

 Entrenchment 1.053

 SOAGE 2.0 with 2,1 patch

 Intel Duo Core

4GB Ram

Mobility Radeon HD 4330

EDIT. Played a second game, star destroyer no longer invisible, but still crashes/

My Vanilla Sins can run at around 40FPS on the highest settings, and only lags during large fleet battles upwards of 400 vessels. What would be the best graphic options for SOGE to maintain visual quality while reducing crashes?

So I got the Mod and it runs great, even at highest settings. However, about 15 minutes into a game I get that "Program has stopped working error" and the game closes out. I'm running Windows 7 64-bit. Anyone have a fix or way to fix this?

Meh, just read around and found out about the bug with running everything on highest settings. I guess I'll lower some stuff and check it out.

That isn't our site; it went down a little while ago. The next full release won't make reference to the site.

As for the lag, what graphics settings are you using? SoGE is much more resource intensive than stock Sins, and as Sins is a 32-bit engine, you cannot run everything at Highest, even you have a powerful computer.

Fiskonian, seeing as how 2.0 worked, there's only two explanations for why 2.1 isn't working.

The first, is that I assume you are using the ingame mod enabler to run/start 2.1, for some reason it does not like to work well with SoGE, as it does not load all the mod's files for whatever reason. The solution to this is to enable the mod before launching Sins, which can be done by editing the EnabledMods.txt file, which can be found in your ...\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods-Entrenchment v1.053 folder. Also, as noted on 2.1's MODDB page, the proper checksum is: 506344820

The second is a messed up/corrupt installation. While this is unlikely, some users have found that after doing a new clean installation that problems they previously had with 2.1 cease to occur.

If these do not fix your freezing issue, I'll talk it over with you in more depth and try to iron out the issue.

Before you copy the 2.1 patch over 2.0, make sure to delete 2.0's GameInfo folder, as per instructions. If that doesn't work then, I'm absolutely baffled as to why it's not working. However, the beta might work better for you.

I've recently reconstructed how it loads, that is split off each race, barring the Imperials, into stackable mini-mods. This way one does not have to load up every race at once, only the ones you wish to play with, which helps reduce resource usage. Installing the beta is via using Subversion, and TortoiseSVN specifically, sign up for it can be found here.

That's really weird. Well, at least it works for you now. I'll mark down this case for future reference.

We currently do not have a version working with the Rebellion beta. However, we do plan to have SoGE ported over to Rebellion so after it's release in June.

I'm probably biased, but I think that the Viscount looks better than the stock Titans.

There hasn't been a single change in the Viscount's textures. I literally just put in the Viscount as is into Rebellion to see how it would look; the result is something far better than anything I expected.

Man, you go away for 4 months, and come back and the SVN beta has turn into an official release, and with a patch no less

Downloading now, and congrats guys.

PS. Just reading through some of the previous posts, and you may well be the most patient modders of all time. That string of complete rubbish posted previously (by I'm sure you know who) would have been dealt with A LOT more harshly by basically any other modder I know. Anyway's, time to game.

Quick question.. Does the new shadow system carry over into any model you put in game?
