Just wanted to say that I have the update. It D-loaded and installed without a hitch. I have tried it and it works good so far. Of course I haven't tried anything fancy or anything.

BETA IS NOW ONLINE!!! LET THE GAMES BEGIN! :)
[quote]Might be wrong though, never had a job in the industry. And if degrees are that important, I doubt that a degree in philosophy and informatology will get me a seat either.[/quote] Hey... the game companies are always trying to get into the heads of gamers. So you might be able to get a job as a consultant. Oh... wait, philosophy... not psycology... D'OH!!! LOL
Hey DANMAN How long do you think it will take to upgrade 7DS to the new Sins beta patch? I guess that's a dumb question sisnce it's not quite out yet eh? LOL But I'm still curious about your thoughts on this...
[quote]Mods, save games from previous versions, etc. will not work with this beta. Mods will need to be updated by their creators in order to work (just like with previous updates).[/quote] So I guess that means we should 'revert' back to the vanilla game before we patch Sins. What I mean by this is that we should go into the Mods section of the game menu and switch it back to vanilla? Just curious. Don't want to patch and then have the game crash on load because I had
[quote]hey can i request some more TEC i love them and im sure you can get some good shots[/quote] Sure Azaana, is there anything in particular you want a shot of?
[quote]I see Phoon's point with this. It's like leaving a small child with a loaded gun. Chances are if he finds it, he'll shoot it. How can you play a concert if you don't know your scales? There is a fundamental path to learning a PC. Will generations forget these fundamentals because now they're raised with the idea that this is how it really is?[/quote] I don't know about this, kids nowadays are 'growing up' with computers. So they are much more savvy when it comes to all this tech
I agree with CenturionJixra. If you read through some of the strategies on these forums, you'll have an easier time for sure. And... Good luck. :NOTSURE:
[quote]Why is it that the beta was never released? It says you can get it off of impulse, but I've tried everything (including clicking the option to have impulse show me pre-release software), and haven't found anything.[/quote] Because it isn't out yet my friend... that's what this topic is all about. ;P Edit: Damn you Kitkun and your quick typing fingers!! :LOL:
Congrats on getting a whole new load of business. Now that this cash cow is being milked you've got more time to work on some more cool games! Right?? :HOT: :CONGRAT:
[quote]I want a Jedi.So that has to be someone with innate power to move shit with his mind and do mind tricks. He also has to be superb with a sword, and wear cloth.Not sure how I go about doing that. I was thinking of adapting a warlock but that doesn't really work for me so far as I'm not sure how to customise a character.[/quote] If you want to play a jedi... try KOTOR. NWN2 is not Star wars. But all the suggestions sound pretty good to me.... so have fun. :)
There's a popular saying that developers like to use... "When it's done." Remember this and you won't have a care in the world. (ok that's not entirely true) ;P
Thanks for pointing that out Kitkun. Didn't notice that. :) Fixed. [IMG]http://img329.imageshack.us/img329/4499/mysinsscreen014cs2.jpg[/IMG] By [URL=http://profile.imageshack.us/user/frostmage]frostmage[/URL] at 2008-07-22 Cheers
HA!! Good one guys. :LOL: I'll have to think about that one some more. ;P Here are some more for your perusal.

Hey there, just an update here. I have a Sova Carrier Wallpaper for anyone who's interested. [IMG]http://img521.imageshack.us/img521/8530/mysinsscreen011dx3.jpg[/IMG] By [URL=http://profile.imageshack.us/user/frostmage]frostmage[/URL] at 2008-07-21 Sorry Charles-0100.. I haven't been able to get a goot shot of a Kol Battleship. But I'll keep trying. Also, I have a wallpaper of a TEC planetary shield Generator but I'm torn on which caption to use. Can you
Shamrock? I may be way out there on this one, but I say... get a girlfriend. 'Nuff said. ;P
[quote]BTW I wanted to ask whether it is possible to revert the main theme back to the original? The new one just doesnt fit the bill for me. Thanks.[/quote] I thought it would be great to hear David Bowie's song 'Space Oddity'. "Ground control to Major Tom.... Ground control to Major Tom.... take your protien pills and put your helmet on." LOL
[quote]And why can I say these things? Simple. They are my idea, and DANMAN wants me to do the entities/strings for them. Urgh. Make one simple mini-mod and it bites you in the rear end.[/quote] Showoff! ;) Those sound like some real kickass ships. This is gonna be great! :D
[quote]Try runing a search for Ironclad or mod and u should find it I performed multiple searches but the Mods folder simply isnt there. That applies to the game directory in Program Files and the AppData under Documents and Settings.[/quote] Make sure you are going into "Local Settings" in the file path before you go to "Application Data". Just a thought. Cheers.
I agree completely with Yatxhee. If they like you, they will most likely hate each other more. So the time they waste killing each other gives you the time you need to build up your fleet to kick everyones asses. At least, that's how I managed to beat two AI's on the Hard setting. Take care. :)
Don't forget the importance of good inteligence. Always have at least a couple of scout frigates going around and checking things out especially at the start of the game. If you have a layout of the map then you can plan your strategy better, figure out chokepoints for defending your empire, find out where your enemy(ies) are and get a general idea of what they have as far as resources and fleet. All this information is invaluable for figuring out the proper strategy to conquer your enemies.<
[quote]can you make one for the Kol battleship ?[/quote] One Kol Battleship comming up. :D [quote]Thanks FrostMage. You practically got my motto on the lab one.[/quote] You're welcome Kikun. :) Any other requests are more than welcome.
Sorry to hear the registry fix didn't work. I'm affraid I'm at a loss ozo. I wouldn't bother with this piece of crap software anymore. Sorry.
You just have to get used to the pace of the game. What difficulty level are you playing at? Maye tone it down a notch till you get more used to the mechanics of the game. the same thing happened to me when I first started playing. But once you get used to the principles of the gameplay, you may start thinking it's unbalanced in YOUR favor. Just keep at it and you'll see. Just my opinion, by the way. Cheers
[quote]Hah! Those are great. May I suggest some research labs?[/quote] Here's a TEC Civics Lab. I'll work on the other races and get some more up soon. Cheers. :) [IMG]http://img187.imageshack.us/img187/5012/mysinsscreen009zw3.jpg[/IMG] By [URL=http://profile.imageshack.us/user/frostmage]frostmage[/URL] at 2008-07-19
