It's now working with the latest version (1.85), now GOG and steam can play together, ty.

OK, thanks for looking into it :)

This is not true, GOG recently updated (finally) to version 1.84, so both me and my steam using friend have the same version (1.84, rebellion ultimate edition, both DLC's) but we cannot join each others games, it says our executables differ! Please fix this stardock, this has been an issue since th GOG release!

*walks away from his experiment gone wild, and informs The One True God Almighty (he insists we use his full title) that a new deity may soon emerge from it.* *The One True God Almighty keeps an eye on the proceedings so that the victor may be inducted into the deity university to lern to be a responsible deity.* *leaves a warning note outside the system to let whomever know that you don't want to try and hack the deity system, or attack The One True God Almighty in any way.*<

*pulls the power cable for the system thats running the universe out of the plug socket* *entire universe goes offline, including whiskey144, callenexile, and chuck norris*

*ghosts the universes system, resetting it (and the OS) back to how it was before* You forget that I created the very system the OS is running on :P

*peers down into my galactic petri dish I left out a few years back to find the fight between Whiskey144 and CallenExile raging away in my experimental universe.* *Chuckles to myself and continues to watch the fight with amusment.* I'll have a great set of notes for this years deity science awards!

[quote who="JSW_Ballz" reply="11" id="2479774"] Are there no plans for an 'alliance victory'? You can get an allied victory with locked teams, why not with them unlocked? On unlocked teams, you CAN get an allied victory with at least two players. IIRC, the biggest issue is that ALL players have to be allied with ALL other players in an alliance for it to count (and possibly with no other players). It's a difficult thing to arrange. At minimum, two p

Out of curiosity, does this work with ATi cards? or will the software only work with NVidia cards?

Even more amusingly, if you're advent you can use the sacrifice ability right as the diplo immunity wears off, and have the enemy like you more for clearing their mines :D

Is it just me, or does the current implementation of the Advent diplomatic ship's ability to increase another teams culture spread badly/miss implemented/bugged? It seems to be spreading MY culture, not theirs, when I use it on their planet. Equally, it seems to spread their culture, not mine, when they use theirs on my planets. This can be particularly annoying when your trying to wage a culture war and your ally keeps disrupting your efforts. Is this a bug or intentio

Yeah, this bug has been present since vannilla sins, i've noticed it for ages. Would still like to see it fixed though :) (not that it's all that serious, other things are probably more important, but if the devs have the time...)

I'm with wolfpackmars2 etc, the military actions stacks up way too fast (it shouldn't add up AT ALL for defending your own planets, and I'd say it shouldn't really be increasing for defending your starbases in neutral gravwells either (suppose I want to actually defend the metal/crystal asteroids i've taken in nearby neutral wells?). Without securing a cease fire VERY early in the game, it quickly becomes utterly impossable to get one with anybody. thats not an exageration, it littera

[quote who="Darvin3" reply="1" id="2373820"]None of those really appeal to me. Already someone with a powerful economy has victory in the bag with superweapons and a larger and more powerful fleet, so anything that's simply about pouring money down a sink to inevitably gain victory doesn't really add much to the game, IMO, and that's basically what all your suggestions come down to (either having a lot of money or spending a lot of money).[/quote] While you may be

Am I the only one who didn't notice much of an increase in speed on the 'new faster setting'? I to preffer a slower pace and more strategizing, but the game is still all about that and not the fastest clicker, as far as i can tell.

/signed :)

I see Darvin3's point, but hes neglecting an important part of Sins: Single player. I agree that this would be considerably less used by human players, but I can see this as being of particular use when playing with the AI. I'd love to be able to buy and sell planets with my computer allies, or buy a planet from an enemy. Sure, I could take it by force and probably have the military might to do just that, but it's nice to have options, and thats the point of diplomacy right? I

[quote who="Zanosan" reply="35" id="2455710"] I'd like to repeat a suggestion because I just feel it could really make the game so much more interesting! When we get down to it, wars are more often than not fought over for resources! I'd like to see a limited resource system implemented or as an option. Astroids for crystals and Minerals should have a limited reasonable quantity and a production curve. -a Mine Life cycle, should have have some

I'm pretty sure that in my game, shooting down enemy scouts WAS giving me a military action penalty, all I was doing is defending my planets and his scouts kept dieing on my defenses and my relation was falling with them.

OK, the mods is still good, but I wanted to let the pirate guy know, that when battling pirates I get a significant frame rate hit. Everything else is fine, and I don't get the hit when fighting the other races, just the pirates. Sometimes weapons fire will actually dissapear sompletely too (presumably because the engine can't handle it). You might want to take a look at optimising the code or something, dunno what the problem is exactly.

[quote who="Pantorea" reply="1532" id="2440233"]I am having a problem installing this MOD, my game seems to freeze and then become not responding when i hit enable mod. The check sum for the mod is 53488652. Using the Entrenchment V1.041 [/quote] How long did you wait? I'm not being rude, but it can take a little while for the mod to actually enable (around 5-10 seconds for me, but I have a dual core and 4 gigs of ram) during

Lol, when I said all those different weapons I wasn;t 'serious' in that way. I just named random 'futuristic' style weapons without thinking about just how realistic they are (I could disscuss the reasons why plasma is actually very unlikely to ever happen, but that's a different disscussion). My point was simply that in the future, I'd expect something more effective than what we have today :P

[quote who="Whiskey144" reply="81" id="2438712"]not necessarily 52500. I didn't actually call YOU a moron. I meant that you (not actual you BTW) would have to be rather unintelligent to drop a giant rock onto a planet that is far to valuable a resource to destroy. To Koiju- the power armor used by cap troopers is designed to take direct 57mm hits. I think shrapnel isn't going to be too much of a problem (except for the chutes, but the trick is so that they slow

[quote who="Draakjacht" reply="1523" id="2437953"]Funny that you mention the armor/weight relationship since thrust/mass ratio determines a ship's top speed. Lotsa games have modifiers for that, especially mech games. Hope the engine can be modified to deal with that.[/quote] The thrust/mass ratio only affects the top speed of space ships in games, in the real world space ships don't have a top speed (except the speed of light). It's the thrust/air resistance ratio that actual
