For those who didn't know, go to your mods directory C:\Users\[yourname]\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Setting 1) Edit user.settings 2) Change the following lines to TRUE LogOutput TRUE ShowErrors TRUE You'll now get all the features of Developer exe with one exception: your live saves won't immediately be reflected in the game (you need to restart to see them).
Thanks a lot Kryo... that sorted out my space problem nicely. Actually, I moved the directory across to my G: drive, then using the orb I changed the directory to my new preferred G:\Sins\ root directory.... I had to re-install but it instantly detected my existing install and didn't need to download everything. As for patching... I suppose if the game is good enough you'll tolerate installer apps, but I do hope Stardock re-thinks this.
UPDATE: there is now a patch to upgrade from Requiem v1.0 to v1.1 - which is compatible with Sins v1.16 + Entrechment v1.02. Enjoy!
Hi mods, I've got Sins andEntrenchment installed in my C:\Program Files\Stardock Games (etc) directory as that's the only place that Impulse can install the game. The problem I have is my C: drive is running out of space... and I really need to move the game to my G: drive which has lots of space. I thought about uninstalling and re-installing (download another 1.5Gb *sigh*) but I can't change the destination directory. Any ideas? Also patching... is there any
I'm also experiencing similar challenges to the OP. It would be nice to have a list of files that were changed from v1.01 to v1.02 so that we can get our mods working in the latest version. Also, where can I pick up the Developer .exe for Entrenchment v1.02? P.S. Awesome game btw! Please don't forget allowing custom ship names for additional races and some explanation of music action level/range + emotion level/range some day :D
About For all you Star Wars fans, I've finished off the latest version of a mod which adds the Alliance and Empire as new races. This is a playable versus the existing Tech/Advent/Vasari races, and balanced against them. "Star Wars - Requiem " is a mod for Sins of a Solar Empire - Entrench
Hi all, Firstly, how bad does the search feature on this site suck?! I don't think I've ever got a response other than "not found"! Moving on(!), I'm trying to figure out how to better space the formations of ships. Formation setting (in ship entity files) sets the order from 0 to 2... but doesn't quite seem to accept 3 or 4 (from setting 2 they seem to huddle together at the back of the fleet). Also they just generally huddle together. I tried increasing the mass sett
Nope. I've spent hours trying to figure it out. In the end I just modified the Phase race with my custom names, and linked that to my new race.
I'm pondering this one myself... even when I cut down the player music options to one file it still randomly selects from generic music themes!
A rather inconclusive post there by Helio.... Did anyone actually figure out how to associate unique capital ship names with a new race?
