[quote]Processor It does not take advantage of multiple processors. Why not?[/quote] But it does support multi core, just the second is for loading textures. [quote]Memory As I type this, I am hosting a 6-player multiplayer Sins match. Sins is using over 850MB of memory. That's kind of a lot. Why?[/quote] You dont play alot of games, do you? most games uses 500-1500 now a days
The minidump is not an error. Its a log file the devs can use to see what went wrong. You should send it to [email protected] and tell them what happened. Maybe they can tell you why you are getting the minidump :)
I also really miss the quote on quote. When you quote someones post that already have a quote on it, it gets all messed up. Oh and the dear oh dear smilieys... Those we have asked to be fixed for over a year (:( So dont expect it to be fixed anytime soon (:(
[quote]I have a bad feeling that Stardock is next on EA's list of companies to buy out.[/quote] [quote]Frogboy has already stated that stardock is not for sale. He says he does what wants, and makes money doing it.Why should he sell his chosen way of life for a lump sum of money?[/quote] You cant say never, as everything is for sale at the right price ;)
[quote]PC gaming is dying[/quote] LOL PC gaming is dying. PC gaming will never die out. Why? because when theres a market, there will always be someone to fill that hole. Then others will want a piece of the cake too, and there will be competition. So all this talk about "PC gaming is dying" is just nonsense. :p

gaa no edit button (:( what i ment to say with: [quote]But you have my word that its legal to install the game on 2 PC. Well you could install it on a 3rd machine, but the third wont be able to play with the other 2.[/quote] is for lan games
[quote]I hear you can use the key on more than one machine? But can only play online with one key at a time?[/quote] That is correct. Its been known for quiet some time, as we were told by SD/IC. But where to read about it, i dunno. I did check the FAQ but didnt say anything about it. But you have my word that its legal to install the game on 2 PC. Well you could install it on a 3rd machine, but the third wont be able to play with the other 2. cheers :)
You didnt give much to go with. Whats your system specs and what windows are you using, xp or vista? if xp, make sure you got directx from [link="http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3&displaylang=en"]here [/link] Download the file and click it, it should update automatically.

[quote]For p5yy: Yes they're allowed to eat, but what, they've had a long ass time to fix a technical problem, and they need to put their minds together. What a terrible post p5yy, as i said i was patient, but i am just wondering what it is they are actually doing, as i saw one or two small changes in the entire 1.05 patch[/quote] Actually it isnt a bad post :p Sins had over a half a year of beta testing and only a few had problems with hosting and join games which got fixe
hmm, my first post didnt seem to be posted for some reason, but heres my answer again :) The part about "Not a valid win32 Application" just means its a corrupt download. Just download it again and save it to the disk where you want it. hope it helps :)
that just means its a corrupt download. Re-downloading it should fix that problem :) Oh and just save it to the disk where you want it. hope it helps :)
[quote]Unless I'm mistaking, Stardock doesn't do any programing.[/quote] But they do ;) just not for Sins. They make alot of stuff, GalCiv, The Political Machine 2008, (and some MMO game which name i cant remember atm, but its far into the future before we see it) and all kinds of software like ObjectDock, WindowBlinds, Stardock Central, Impulse, so on and so on :)
[quote]Sending a minidump in, is effort. There is no instant gain. Spending 3 minutes doing this is just not worth it. The majority cannot be arsed. [/quote] If people are too lazy to send in a minidump, then the bugs wont be fixed. [B]Its that simple[/B] :p I cant understand why this is even being discussed, either people send in the minidump with a small description of what happened. Or the user might have to wait a long time or maybe never to have his or hers issue fixed.
w00t, now thats a surprise :D

Coelocanth, aah thanks :) from that mail, he makes it sound all cool and wonderful with the online activation and re-activation every time you download or needs to update your game. Funny he didnt mention the 3 max installations... from what happend with Bioshock, one would have thought they would have learned something. I personally dont like this at all. Its going in the wrong direction, thats for sure (:( Am i a possible thief every time i try to update my legal
[quote]There's an announcement on spore.com dated May 9th that says they're basically doing the same thing as with Mass Effect: removing the recurring 10 day authentication requirement.[/quote] You sure? because ive searched on spore.com and its nowhere to be found, that they would skip the 10 day activation, or any May 9th announcement since 2006. [quote]But don't be fooled. The DRM is still in. You still must activate your game. The activation is still tied to your hardware profil
[quote]spore has ditched the DRM you just need to regester yoour copy now to get the patches like sins.[/quote] where did you get that info? AFAIK only Mass Effect changed there minds
awesome :D
[quote]Lol I have a better question, how long does it take you to get back to your desktop after exiting the game?Without hitting Ctrl alt Del or haveing to restart.[/quote] with the new testing (this one is old, from beta 3) of 40.000+ ships it takes me 30sec i believe
[quote]In other words, rather then taking care of the above laundry list of issues that SHOULD have been addressed either before launch or in the patches followng release, you're going to force your customers to BUY the expansion to fix your game? I wasn't aware Id need to spend more money for you to take care of the product that you should have fixed long ago since release. Thanks for the warning, I will spend my money and time elsewhere. Ive learned a valuable lesson where Stardock an
