[quote who="G_Bison" reply="39" id="3245710"]O.K. So why include a DVD-Rom if you can't play unless you already bought through Steam. What about people who waited to buy this, and now they have to pay more just to play? [/quote] So that you don't have to use up some of your bandwidth limit every time you want to install the game, and can instead install it off the DVD? Installing of the DVD is much faster, and saves Bandwidth, which, believe it or not,

Is it possible that the Bomber line has been re-purposed to reference something else - say, Frigates or Corvettes. If so it could open up some interesting possibilities, though I sadly doubt it.

[quote who="Carkarias" reply="13" id="3242096"]I'm not sure why one would want to set the number to negative? and is it possible that its somehow an intended feature? like how sometimes -1 is set to denote infinity?[/quote] One could set it to negative so that ships start the battle with their maximum mitigation, and have enemy fire or certain enemy abilities decrease mitigation. For example, all ships enter a battle with 100% mitigation, and are unable to b

Main problems: Advent is severely OP, TEC is semi-OP and unoriginal, and Vasari is unoriginal, and is accomplished by the Vasari Loyalist Titan as is with its gate spawning ability. For Titans to be non-combat ships with unique powers, sure, that I can understand. What you've suggested as powers, however, is crazily unbalanced and not really too different to what Superweapons already accomplish - or are meant to anyway.

It should tell you in game, I think. If not, simply go in game, go to the mods screen, click "Show mod path", and it should say something along the lines of "C:\Users\[Name]\Documents\My Games\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire Rebellion\Mods Rebellion v[version number]". There's probably an easier way, but that works.

[quote who="Emperorjarin" reply="14" id="3239027"]I like Joe's idea, though I think it should also be able to share damage with its fleet, similar to the Advent's guardian vessels. Furious defense should then be adjusted to compensate for the sudden massive damage increase being delivered to it.[/quote] Actually, something along these lines would be quite interesting. As has been pointed out, often invaders won't focus an Ankylon because it&#39

Do you have enough Capital Ship Crews? Correct me if I'm wrong but that could also interfere I believe.

Start task manager and see if a process for it has started. Ensure your computer meets the minimum system requirements for the game. Make sure your computer is not doing anything intensive whilst trying to launch, as this will make it take significantly longer. Additional info: What are your machine specs? What OS are you running?

[quote who="Twilight_Storm" reply="13" id="3232648"]Maybe make it kill un-upgraded corvettes, and severely damage everything else. That way the person can retreat and repair, which buys the person who used Wail enough time to set up a counter-attack, or re-build, as necessary. -Twi /)[/quote] Considering the Eradica's ability can do more damage than that for FAR less cost, I don't think that's wise. I'd agree to it, if you only lost some population off

[quote who="harpo99999" reply="191" id="3224937"]if you think that eu shipping costs are bad,then you can pity us aussies, our shipping costs(au$50) take the total price to au$120 and the au$ is stronger the us$. harpo [/quote] Yeah, that was the block for me originally getting it. Thankfully I've managed to get family to pay for shipping, so I'm getting my Kol soon :D Us Australians get ripped off with everything though. If you ever think y

Just going to make a note: Should probably go in the modding section, as you are modding stuff and have found a [bug] related to modding, rather than the core game.

[quote who="Rebell44" reply="40" id="3220084"]On huge maps I have some lag even with my 2600K @4.3Ghz [/quote] Hit it up to 4.8 Mine has 0 problems then, until I get 7 full population fleets facing off against each other in the same gravity well and try to watch it. Come to think of it, that might be my graphics card that's dying there, though I wouldn't be surprised if its everything :/

[quote who="Admirilakbar" reply="182" id="3220072"]wow realy you guys? lol this stuff seems like its for children but perhaps not at that price ofc i mean what adult is gonna put up them posters in thier bedroom or wear them dog tags lol seems a bit silly imo, bloody awsome game though gj stardock!

Words cannot describe awesome level. Need more. Awesome Sins Artwork. For Awesomeness.

I generally don't bother renaming my ships and planets. I will sometimes, but the 11 character limit annoys me. Planets I'll just name randomly dependent on what mood takes me at the time. Some times it could be a Sci-Fi planet name, other times a name I've used previously in a story I wrote for fun, and other times just some random name that takes my fancy at the time, or that randomly popped into my head. TEC Ships I'll generally name after gre

[quote who="GoaFan77" reply="3" id="3215613"] It depends how the buff type is set up. Best way is to look at an in game file that uses that buff type for reference. Personally I use Zombie's Eclipse plugin that would tell me if I miss a block like that, but that's probably overkill just for basic problem like this.[/quote] Hrrm. The buff that I'd copies as a template for the one I'm using didn't have it, which was the reason I didn't include it in the firs

[quote who="ice27828" reply="10" id="3215885"]@OP Honestly if you can mod the game like that, WHICH I DOUBT. You think you are the first to suggest such a mod, if it was possible people would have done it already. The fact it hasn't been done yet, it is because it can't be done.[/quote] Ok, I'm not that experienced in Sins Modding and even I can tell that this would likely be possible. The Asteroid homes starting with a tech labs and such can be done

Alright, after a bit of screwing around with adding and removing a lot of stuff finally managed to fix that problem, Thanks Gao. Is there a specific line or buff type that requires an effect, as many buffs don't, yet obviously some - like this one - do, and I have not yet recognized a pattern. Also, a few questions on what can be accomplished with buffs: Is there a type of buff, or chain thereof, that boosts a ship's acceleration without affectin

After editing a couple of abilities and buffs I've run into an error which makes little sense to me, and I've got no idea how to fix it. The error is: Text FileArchive missing Label.

[quote who="Procumbo" reply="8" id="3213646"]The scout ability doesn't work on Asteroids, it's for neutral extractors in asteroid belts, space junks, etc. (there are several kinds of systems that have extractors but no planet). [/quote] Hence why I quoted the part where he was talking about capturing neutral extractors, if possibly a bit unclearly. Otherwise some pretty good advice on playing the Vasari.

If you are looking for a somewhat similar map by default in Single Player, Gateway is probably the closest you'll get. You start off like in any other map, and your opponent can get to you as easily as any time else, but rush the tech for between stars jumping and you can travel past planet "Gateway", for which the map is named, through its parent star and into the other system. This is the only way to enter the other system - through the planet gateway. Hold Gateway [Or the star beyond t

[quote quoting="post"] Hi all, I am a good Starcraft 2 player (used to be in the top 1% of players worldwide before I started playing Diablo 3) and I also played SC1, Star Wars Rebellion and Rise of Nations, but Sins Rebellion is my first Sins game.[/quote] Excellent, someone else who has played all these games. Not that I check often, but I rarely run into people that have. [quote]1) I picked TEC loyalist as the first race I’d try, although

Basically what Selucia said. Eco is short for Economy - focusing your build around a strong economy before military, and using that economy to support your allies and be able to pump out techs and ships faster come mid-late game.
