Pax Imperia: Eminent Domain....the game is very similar....
It's slower than Pax, and the ship design element is missing (one of the best parts of Pax), but it sure feels like it has a Pax lineage IMO. Anyone else feeling that?
[quote] I purchased my copy from Gamestop; who curiously now has the policy of breaking the seal and removing the cd before placing the game on their shelves. They replaced the cd before the sale, but I seriously mistrust any workers who would be allowed to do this. [/quote] Yeah, that is a SUPER SHADY business model that Gamestop uses, I personally know someone who was fired from a Gamestop for basically taking serials when they open the box and
EUREKA! Figured out my problem, the Sins DVD, or should I say, MY sins DVD, does NOT LIKE my new LG Blue-Ray/HD DVD drive. I figured I would check the easiest stuff first and dropped in an older DVD drive and everything worked like a charm. Not sure what's up with my LG drive, everything else seems to like it just fine. Annnnyhow, if you are getting weird install errors, check that drive and make sure your firmware is up to date. Cheers all, thanks for the help, off to go nuke something now
Glad to hear it helped you, didn't do a thing for me, auto play of the DVD doesn't work, via the start menu doesn't work, and going directly to the sins folder and double clicking the .exe doesn't work as well...strange and frustrating, going to try and get a shot of my weird launcher layout...
and the weird thing is, if you click launcher and it says you need IE 6, it then displays some elements of the launcher but they are all messed up, the menu choices stacked on one another. I will take a screenie tomorrow when I am at that computer.
Nope, going for the Empire.exe doesn't do anything but flash a dos box for a nanosecond and then nothing...and just to be double sure, I tried installing it on my gaming laptop and it worked like a charm, so the disk and game are a verified good media copy.
an additional note, I don't seem to have a user.setting file, and I have done 4 installs now with a reboot between each un-install and re-install...good times... :(
Hi, Installed this game yesterday, DVD copy, and it worked fine on my test desktop, went to install it on my gaming rig today and it won't start. First, when i go to install it says the application requires IE 6.0..(have IE 7.0 installed)..but going manually onto the CD and using the setup.exe worked fine. After it installs along with the Bonus pack, if I click on the icon, I get a split second flash of a dos box and then nothing. Looking at task manager, it doesn't even sh
