I would love to help with that. I just don't know how to actually change the icon as it appears on the empire tree... is it covered in any modding guides? If you told me how to help you with that i would be more than willing. Keep up the great work

I keep getting an errorlog of impulse activation, but when I try to open it it seems to open okay. The window is there, it just remains black and not responding forever. Is this an activation problem? I have tried reactivating.

I recently bought Impulse from Stardock, and confirmed the payment, but afterward I got a weird error log in the form of a text file. It said that the activation didn't work because the registration code didn't match up or something. All I know is that I bought Sins completely legally, so why would I be having activation problems right now? I also looked on my Paypal page, and it said that I paid Stardock, so I want to make sure I didn't just get ripped off. Any

I think that people should take the whole economic side of the game out, and see what it is like. You should only be able to have out a certain number of ships at the same time, and don't need to research first. This way the players would act more as military commanders, and less as emperors. Also, if all the prototypes from all the factions were deployable for the players, this would add a HUGE strategy element to the game, using combinations and the like. If ther

It seems like modders are steadily trying to decode the gameinfo issued with the modset, and while we are making progress, it is slow progress. Some people have been really kind as to clarify and sort different modifiers, constraints, etc. However, the small collection of tutorials in the documentation seem to only be about very limited topics. Do the developers have their own written guide as a sort of reference to which does what? is it confidential? If you do, g

I find that most of all your points are black and white. Piracy is a certain type of theft, but it is not the same as stealing a car, or a cd, or any real-life object. I am NOT EXCUSING PIRACY, and not defending it either, it just seems like you all are relegating it to the moral status of a full-blown theft. "Piracy. is. not. stealing." or "Piracy is theft"-- these statements are completely oversimplified. &nb

"Basic game theory and economy will show you that free (ie piracy) wont work, then again, those subjects might require reading and some critical thinking and not just sprouting of some TPB-propaganda." Quellist, you missed his entire point. He was not saying that Piracy is not a crime, he just was saying that the moral implications of piracy are milder than those of stealing.

So, I looked in several tutorials, new and old, and have not yet seen a simple description of how to import a .mesh file into the xsi mod tools. Please, if you know how, don't just send me a link to a tutorial, unless the tutorial is specifically based on this. Thanks. I'm new to modding, but it seems really cool in Sins. Let me know, Onyx

Its relatively easy right now to do it a different way, I just modify it and name it something different, then delete the original one and rename mine to the original one. But I think it might be read only. Thanks for all your help

So I downloaded the total mod tool set and opened up the pdf for creating simple mods by editing the gameinfo text. (I have the new .entity files that are text writable) There is one problem. When I try to save a .entity file after editing it, I choose to overwrite the original file, and it says it can't, because the access is denied. What's up with this? I can delete the .entity files fine, and I can create .entity files and modify them, I just can't overwri

I have a problem with mods. Everytime after I activate a mod it gives me a "runtime error" message and the window closes. (note: doesn't say anything about a minidump) I have tried this on multiple mods, and made sure their locations were the correct path. Does anyone know how I can fix this? thanx

Hey everyone-- This is just a post of gratitude to Stardock developers and people like the Monk who, despite constant complaining, still continue to help us. Many people are switching to Impulse now, and there seem to be many complaints about it. However, every single one of them was later answered by an admin, pointing out what the user was doing wrong. The "problems" we keep seeing are not of impulse itself. They are simply because people are reacting to th
