I have acctually looking at it noticed this too.. it happens about 2mins before a Auto Save. It only ever happens to me in multiplayer, I have a single player game that ran for over 4hours, yet in multiplayer we are dead on 4hours now and I have crashed out about 4 times so far.
Dont mean to bring up a old thread, but this was the top match on google. I have not played this game since beta as I had this run time error. Now after release I have have this error twice within a 3hour session with a friend. I do not beleive this is a video card memory texture error as I am running a GTX580 1.5gb so plenty of that to go around. This is indeed very frustrating. On a sie not, I found out what made the game
Hi, I just got the beta with my friend and decided to play the multiplayer with him, the biggest issue seems to be a major de-sync right from the start, but the game has not noticed this or reported it.. Symptoms of this are. - Colonized planets not showing up for the other player - My friend has colonized a few planets but i still see them as rebals. - Bounty incorrect, - My friend put bounty on a AI and I show as 8960 bounty and he shows
Hi, I have recently got back into Sins and been playing Diplomacy. For the life of me I can not find the answer here or anywhere on google. My diplomatic standing with most remaining races is at 10.0. Donating resources wont get it any higher, yet I can not make Pacts until I have higher standing. How on earth do I do this, or do I have to use the Envoys? Thanks.
Impulse wont even download. It downloads the install application but when trying to install impulse it attempts to connect to retreive data to finish the install and fails.
Reading it now, Should of got it proof read :) Page 6, Impulse issues, 2) Tool (Should be Took surely) too long to load (about 10 seconds) on a typical system. Still reading it, interesting particularly interested in the Bill of Rights update when i get there.

Why run over hamachi? instead of choosing Ironclad online, just choose multiplayer, you can do direct ip games that way. example. i have port 6112 open and forwarded to my machine. my ip adress is 1.2.3.4.5 i host a game, the other person/people choose multiplayer - join game and use my ip address.. done, game hosted and ready to play. No need for hamachi, unless you dont know how to do port forwarding, in witch case just do a search on the forums been
Working ok now i re-downloaded and tried again and seems to be fine. Looking good, will play it in more depth soon
Unless you use static IP witch i guess you dont, everytime you turn on your pc you are more than likely assigned a different ip adress (Not always the case) In any case, goto http://portforward.com/ and use the guide, you can even choose your router for exact step by step instructions. more exactly use this link http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Linksys/WRT54G/Sin.htm The site doesnt have Sins of a Solar empire, so on the last step use Sins and
acheivments can be edited and falsified so it would be useless on windows live, unless the way it is done can be changed. Just go into your Sins folder through Documents and Settings/User/Local Settings/Application Data/Ironclad Games/Sins of a Solar Empire/Settings and open acheivment.acheivment in your text editor, and change them all to True....
if you are playing the ancient gifts map, you wont have phase lanes to the star you only travel via wormholes.
nvidia isnt micriosoft.. the game may well have passed all requirments for GFW, but if nvidia dont supply decent drivers under vista it wont work will it? put a ATI card in the same pc and it will work fine and meet all GFW requirments..
Still can't get this to work. downloaded 1.3c and 1.3d copied the 1.3d into the 1.3c mod (Yes i done this correctly, i didnt overwrite the folders i manually overwrote the indavidial files.) Load the game, tried with just enable and play and enable load on startup and play. Didnt get any ships or construction ships, could not build anything.
i thought the beta was optional as in open public.. turning on and off may not work but havign a standalone beta install would be better.
the original poster said he had it installed on a external hard drive. Had the system been recently formatted or had a reg cleaner or something used, might have removed the key hence the update dont work. Or just re-download the game through SD.net for the latest fully patched game.
or just do windows update :)
nice might pick it up, just for the guides and mods recognition..
I grabbed it before you even updated this thread, was going to get 1.2 form fileplanet and noticed 1.3 sitting there so got that instead :D Put in mod folder, loaded game, activated mod. tried ot play, had no construction ship or anything, just my planet and some resources Tried again with the load mod on startup and restarting game and same thing :/ Got it in the right folder aswell.. Very odd Will give it another go soon.
Ancient gifts is taking me ages against 5 ultra ai :( Great map though :)
Bad support = EA look at Ultima Online, as soon as EA bought it half the players left. Couple questions about the screenshot. What timezone are you in, and how many games where in the join list? All very well saying the game is dead, i logged in this morning at 11am GMT had 3 people in lobby 40+ online and got a game in 1min. The main issue that deters anyone playing online is noone knows how to host. EVERY online game i have played i have hosted myself weather the
Only ever had one minidump. And that was IP based multiplaye rnot ICO. The problem i found was Xfire. Closed Sins, Closed Xfire, restart Sins, worked fine. It could be a issue with SD/ICO it could be Xfire.. who knows. but that was the fix for me, just close xfire
Not sure if mentioned yet, i know we live in the age of Teamdpeak and such.. but VOIP in game! easier to communicate to allys! mutable, changable ofcourse but VOIP would be very nice
Well i was working on something liek this also, but will be a bit "bigger" as it were :) Still need to sort out load sof stuff.. https://www.sinsmods.com https://www.sinsmods.co.uk Just need to fix my pc so i can finish the site.
[quote] For example you could do as little as providing a free website to any serious modders who actually have a valid product..[/quote] Working on it :D Just need to fix my pc then it's done.
