[quote who="ReadyMan" reply="5" id="2648908"]Thanks for the replies! That's encouraging that others have win7 64bit working. I have the original CD for Sins, and then I bought Entrenchment and Diplomacy thru impulse. I think I HAVE to load it from the CD, right? I'd be happy to load it straight from impulse too...[/quote] You can load it straight from Impulse; you don't actually need the CD. As long as it shows up, anyway. (Your se

[quote who="VRaptor117" reply="7" id="2126927"]I would rather there be a structure that that provides that kind of buff, but only for the TEC and Advent(Vasari already has a phase lane tech). Culture doesn't make sense. So if a planet likes you empire more, your ships magically can jump in and out faster? [/quote] No magic involved-just less red tape going through customs. :P I like it, although I'm not sure it works well as a structure.

You're using Flash 10. Downgrade to Flash 9 or use an alternative browser that's still on 9. Blame Adobe.

[quote who="Annatar11" reply="7" id="2110777"]I'm going to try getting some screenshots of WinMerge up later tonight. I didn't get a chance to try it over the weekend.[/quote] I'll hold off on giving you karma, then. ;)

[quote]I found it after i cleaned my registry the 3rd time to reinstall the beyon-compare trial [/quote] With most (albeit not all) applications that use evaluation periods or trials, you can get a new trial period by running it as a different user. I've created mule users for this purpose for applications on more than one occasion. But a freeware alternative is always nice, too.

[quote]After about half a minute later, the enemy-territory starbase was 40% completed, while my home territory starbase was 60% completed.[/quote] I'm not sure if this made it in, but I do remember discussion about the idea that starbases would take longer to build in hostile gravity wells. Did you try to compare two in friendly wells versus two in hostile wells? [quote]Moreover, it also carries over to upgrades being slowed down![/quote] I'll

1) Install Impulse on the other computer. 2) Right click and select Download and Archive. 3) Transfer the archive (find it quickly by clicking the icon in the upper left corner, hitting restore archive, going up one folder, right clicking on the Backup folder and hitting Explore) to your system. 4) Reset data within Impulse to remove your login information, and uninstall if necessary/desired on the other computer. Since you have net access at home, the current

[quote who="Astax" reply="5" id="2109450"]This would be great, but can the engine handle the amount of computations? The sins engine already eats 100% of my cpu cycles. And the idea of optimization thus far has involved reducing how often the computer checks autocast abilities. [/quote] So that's why the autocast on shield regen sucks ass now. [/offtopic]

[quote]Why bother w/ IE for Hotmail?[/quote] Because Live Messenger opens IE to read it. Use Live Mail instead-it's integrated into Live Messenger as well.

[quote]Well, Ironclad won, now were up against Konami, if we are going to win, we need everybody's vote, I mean everyone.[/quote] Next round doesn't open voting until the 23rd (Monday), but I'll be watching it.

[quote who="unkn0wnx" reply="20" id="2109155"]If TEC base can move it will be a sweet ability. Run in and detonate.[/quote] For the love of God, no. The Vasari base is the only one that moves (in the gravity well), and the general consensus is that it will remain that way. Be smarter about where you build.

[quote who="superfingers" reply="1" id="2108614"]im not even following this anymore this is a crazy long post[/quote] You had to be there. ;) In the future, SSAF should update the OP, as it's the only thing that shows on every page.

[quote who="GeckiMouse" reply="13" id="2108483"]Turned out to be a 230MB odd download. But had to download and install it via Impulse. Should be a standalone EXE so that if I have to reinstall the game, I can just run the update without having to download it again. Other games from other publishers that I have can always get a standalone update EXE. Don't think I like the this type of update setup.[/quote] Right click on the installed game and select Archive.&n

[quote who="GeckiMouse" reply="11" id="2108372"]Just downloaded and installed Impluse. It came up with a 1.4GB download for 1.16. That can't be a patch, can it? Is there a separate download just for the 1.16 patch update?[/quote] This is Impulse being stupid and not showing the size of the update, but the size of the game. I thought they had that fixed. Start the download and it will report correctly. (99% probability. The other possibi

[quote]i also feel its weak sauce to say anyone who does not like impulse must be a pirate and find its offensive.[/quote] That very rarely comes up when people say they don't like, or even want, Impulse. However, it always comes up whenever someone says they can't get Impulse. [quote]i think you can do that in steam as well, no?[/quote] That's probably the one thing Steam is less picky about than Impulse-you are correct; it does have an equivale

[quote]so having a network install is important to me in the event that i have to reinstall my OS.[/quote] That's why Impulse has an archive feature. Ironclad is the developer, Stardock is the publisher. Have you even tried to get help with your connection problem?

[quote who="Hack78" reply="16" id="2108239"] Strange, this week's updates were only about 3MB each for me. Entrenchment 1.02 was that size. The vanilla sins update (1.16) that you needed to go with it (which had most of the memory tweaks in it etc...) was about 200 odd MB compressed.[/quote] It was ~4MB for me, updating from 1.15. Slightly larger than the update for Entrenchment. Shortly thereafter it unpacked a mere 7 files in the "install" process.</

[quote who="CrusaderScott" reply="8" id="2107841"]Please add the inability to upload avatars to the list. Thanks! [/quote] [quote who="Astax" reply="9" id="2107849"]Try using IE, I know I couldnt upload with FIrefox for some reason.[/quote] CrusaderScott, you're using Flash 10. The avatar uploading process only works up to Flash 9, because Adobe broke it. SD hasn't fixed that yet.
