Wow, the Realtek website could use some work. Your motherboard or actual PC manufacturer may also have a pertinent download.
As a company, Stardock releases some of the most polished betas in the entire gaming industry. Getting a beta copy from a pre-order is all gravy, at least to me.
I'd say the most messed up thing about multiplayer games is that they attract leetspeaking munchkins; unless you're running a lan party for friends, you have to take the players you get (or drop out and keep retrying).
[quote who="Amandin" reply="16" id="2021091"]and for ppl that wondered what yadida is: its pronounced ya-di-da and it means like bla-bla-bla[/quote] Ah, ok. It looks like an alternate spelling of "yadda yadda" then. The Urban Dictionary lists yadida as a reference to a rap song lyric. Thanks for the clarification.

Is there a link somewhere to a general Terms of Service or Forum Rules for the site as a whole? I couldn't find one.
If a company can be said to have a soul, candy-coating a DRM system to trick users into accepting the concept would be a starkly easy way for that soul to be lost. The major example that comes to mind is Google's "do no evil" creed crumbling due to cynical corporate greed over the China market and their requirement that information be systematically censored for that customer base.

Those are too easy. I was thinking more along the lines of a "suicide by cop" scenario, where you provoke another civilization into attacking you, giving them invasion tech if they don't already have it.

A while back, I remember someone was working on a very detailed Sol system map for Sins. Did anything ever come of that?
It's a very common typo in computer game text, as well.
Are there any SR2 bug fixes folded into the expansion?
It's not a paradox; in fact, the best use of time travel to fix a problem in the past is one where the resultant timestream has absolutely no further access to time travel. Do it once, do it right. I think perhaps that the Thalans are not sufficiently omniscient to be able to check their work before the final commit; nor are they sufficiently omnipotent to make the correct edit.

Just the same, you should be aware that even if you do all the art from scratch, it's still a "derivative work" and you can be squished like a bug if the company that owns the property notices and decides to take action. At that point, Stardock and its allied companies would likely need to slap the mod down to keep them safe from legal retaliation.

I was able to update Sins of a Solar Empire and the GC2: Twilight of the Arnor beta using Impulse, and again was unable to update Space Rangers 2 with the same error message as before. I'm thinking that a full uninstall and reinstall of Space Rangers 2 might be the next logical troubleshooting step.
No joy, same error as before (except for the version number increment): -- [4/8/2008 6:17:02 PM] ---------------------------------------------------- Context: DownloadJob Error - sr2/drengin PublicProduction 1.30.003 Message: The requested URL does not exist on the server.

A price reduction would mainly serve to flood multiplayer with munchkins.
