After Uninstalling and reinstalling latest patches per instructed, and removing "Drengin" registry keys,( the two mentioned elsewhere in this forum) minidumps and resulting game freeze is back bigtime. I cannot play any longer than an hour now.

after uninstalling and un-archiving about 4 diffrent times to get the majic order that Sins-entrenchment wants, no change for me.

 

Mini dumps after about 2 hrs of play.  No diffrent than any other beta versions of it they have released.

Try turning down some of the graphics settings in the game options, this is suggested by IronClad. Also, any mini-dump files should be sent to support@ironcladgames.com, as they are handling these issues.

yeah this is bs, wont be buying anymore stuff from these guys, 2/23 i went looking for some games on inpulse, saw that sins Entrenchments and demigod was dated for 2/20 so i was like cool and got them,next day the dates showed sins 2/25 not 2/20, and demigod was 4/16 i think i got dooped get used to it dealing with these guys,, payed 50 bucks for crap demigod with wrong date and sins patches are so mesed up. why put out a patch that messes it all up and if so why not just take it away and go back to 1.3.1 untill fixed

I know we are beta testing but, as a programmer you should still try and debuff stuff before releasing to beta testers.  I mean come on, after "fixing" game more they don't even play a "TEST" game to see how their patch works lol.  If so they'd notice that it crashes after an hour every time.  Get used to 3 planet ultra small maps, because thats all you're going to be playing....

We posted a 'mini' update that should fix most issues, 1.15.048

If that doesn't help;

You may need to manually remove the game folder, and delete 2 Registry Keys before you'll be able to re-install.

Go to C:\Program Files\Stardock Games\Sins of a Solar Empire (or where ever you installed the game) and delete the main folder.

Then launch the System Registry (Start-> run, and type regedit)
Look for and delete the following Keys;

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Stardock\Drengin.net\sins
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Stardock\Drengin.net\sinsentrench

For Vista 64 bit;
HKLM>SOFTWARE>Wow6432Node>Stardock>Drengin.net>sins
HKLM>SOFTWARE>Wow6432Node>Stardock>Drengin.net>sinsentrench

Then, reboot your PC and go back to Impulse and try installing the base game. Make sure it installs to 1.13 version, test it out before then installing entrenchment.

Less caffeine Onimusha.   Your reply is way over the top compared to the replies you are complaining about.

The only thing that has failed for me in Sins ever is the replays. It seems something always goes wrong and it's like it stopped recording my commands, and suddenly the game just goes to a halt with everyone still earning money, but all the ships become lifeless.
