Did you mean "Good Humor?" Because "Good" is unnecessary infront of hummer. All hummers may be assumed as good. Both of these services do however typically require credits
I believe in a previous thread orders outside the continental US and Europe would ship in April.
This is an ironic post. Without capitalism there would be no forum, SOASE, or personal computers for that matter. [quote] Yes Schem, this is an attack on capatalism. Allow me to support this attack. The only way to get wealthy in a capitalist society is to exploit millions of people in third world countries. Those people usually die too...

It just fixes the bug some players reported of getting the wrong version of the Beta when they downloaded from Stardock. Existing Beta 4 games will play after the patch. Nothing else new I believe.
[quote] The voices in beta 4 are all placeholders done by us in one night of messing around. The voicework from professional actors is now in the game and you'll hear it at release (the Vasari is substantially different). [/quote] Thanks, that's great news. I just watched the new release of Blade Runner, could you get Rutger Hauer to do the Vasari?, He was very menacing and from the Netherlands. ;) Very menacing
I'm fine with the Vasari, I just can't play them. That voice and script, can't stand it. The game looses alot with the volume turned off. Anyone planning on comming out with a voice over mod for the Vasari?
I got this error in two recent games. I also have to alt tab to see the error window just like smartiso but this has not caused my game to crash. I also find that if I do not zoom in to watch the combat the error quits appearing.
[quote]Failed to find StringID: 'IDS_PLANETDETAILSINFOCARD_ALLEGIANCEDETAILS_DELTAFROMCULTURE'. NOTE: Any following StringID failures will be supressed.[/quote] That's the error I got last night. The game would freeze and it took a while for this error screen to appear but if I was patient it would show up and then it would skip these errors going forward. The planet description would show the error string in red when you hovered your cursor over the planet. I'm glad its just
I was able to complete a beta4 game. It did crash twice when an ai planet was taken over by another ai culture, but the game was easy to reload Here is what eventually worked for me. I took Ron's advice and defraged my hard drive. This dramtically effected the load time of the game and made it run smoother. I had forgotten to ever do this on my home computer. I took Yarlen's advice and swithed to low texture instead of high texture. This allowed the game to load ri
[quote]Personally, I would get a Q6600 instead of the E6850 and overclock it to 3.0Ghz because it is RIDICULOUSLY easy to do that with this processor. Regardless if you've ever overclocked anything before, you should read a quick a guide on overclocking for your motherboard on where the FSB (front side bus) settings are in BIOS because literally all you need to do is adjust it from 1066MHz (standard Q6600 speed) to 1333MHz (new 'standard' FSB speed of P35, X38, etc motherboards). You don't need
Yarlen, Setting the texture to low fixed most of the delay issues. Really miss the detail though, just more justification for a new machine. :) Anyone playing the game on Vista and any issues?
[quote]... No way. Your article was insane . Your pagefile usage (sitting at desktop) should be in the MB range -- if your into the GB range something is seriously wrong. Unless your looking at how large the pagefile is allowed to be, something you should always let windows decide on its own. If you've been mucking around with the maximum pagefile size... which looking back I think you have... thats a bad idea. Use DXDiag to check the pagefile usage. [/quote]<br
When I can play the game again, after the tech folks have reset my downloads, I will check the textures. I had the resolution turned to the lowest possible but I am not sure I did anything with the textures. My computer just sent me a message stating the virtual memory was not at what they recommended. Ir was a Dell warning. They suggested like 1038mb. I have 1 gb of ram. Ron stated 200 to 500 mb, the article I found recommended 1x to 1.5x the ram. It was running the best
Thanks Everyone, I followed Ron's advice, no viruses but my computer was in bad need for a defragging. I also changed the swap file to 500mb from letting the computer decide. I changed the max and min swap file so that both was 500 mb per an article I found on line. The game loaded very quickly and without the usual delays. I decided to try 200 mb for the swap files and the existing game took 4 1/2 minutes to load so I figured maybe it was just the defragging that had helped. I switched
Shadowhal, Thank you for your response but I was being facetious and self effacing regarding my general lack of computer knowledge. That was what the smile was for. I will try to less cryptic in the future and it was kind of you to reply. My home computer must be messed up then. It is newer then some of these listed in the post. My home computer is a Pentium dual core 2.80 GHz 1 GB Ram, Radeon X600 256 MB, 250 GB Hard drive 31 GB remaining This is what happens w
Or was that a real question? Patheticly, a real question. I use Microsoft Office all day long but possess little basic understanding of computers. The price of this configuration seems to be about what I have paid in the past for computers so I chose different features that way and from what I have read on this forum, like the game doesn't support quad core and there is little benefit in 4 GB of Ram instead of 3 GB. The game is not the only reason for buying a new computer, but si
I watched the video of the game review where the developer pushed a button and the game instantly started and he said "Its just that fast" I do not experience SINS like that, it takes several minutes to completely load and then stops and starts. I am thinking of buying a new computer like this: Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor E6850 (4MB L2 Cache,3.0GHz,1333 FSB) OPERATING SYSTEM Genuine Windows Vista® Home Premium MEMORY 3GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 800MHz - 4 DIMMs HARD DRIV
Fierce battles could erupt to deny the TEC a system two jumps from the Vasari homeworld! Kind of like island hoping during the war in the pacific. Could really add new strategies to epic games.
Is there a recording of this triple Dunov strategy? Wouldn't a recording or a save game go a long way in solving this debate? Then someone could prove or disprove the argument.
Error
Thanks!
Yarlen, You may want to consider to include in your hotfix post if the game needs to be uninstalled and then installed like the new beta. If my memory is correct for a hotfix all you need to do is simply install. Also will the hotfix prevent saved games from being continued? Thanks
The TEC should be immune to the cultural effects of alien broadcast centers. The aliens look like bugs -this is not a complaint, I'm sure they look appealing to other aliens and er...bugs. On the other hand I'm sure given the opportunity the aliens would want to mate with our women and so would be vunerable to over 90% of our advertising media and thus would be highly vunerable to TEC broadcast centers. Look what happen
I would like to see 0% structures disappear when the planet is re colonized. The "under construction" signs get torn down, there should be no need to manually target them. I would like fighters to dog fight other fighters after the bombers are gone. Then once air supremcy is achieved go after the frigates and other ships.
