What is all of your opinion on piracy? If the thread develops to what seems reasonable, I will post my own opinion. what is your opinion on piracy? Is it bad? Is it good? Is it a comsumer sampling process? How does it work for you?

beamGlowColor and beamCoreColor are hexidecimal color values, 000000 = Black FFFFFF = White could that be it?
Let me clarify something, as i bet you've all seen my error posts, I have the correct checksum (I didn't patch, i got it full 0.6) I have experienced graphical problems, White and black boxes where explosions and fires should be I have seen that the planet bombardment is weird, (It seems to explode before it reaches the unshielded planet) I have experienced problems in 0.6 beta for entrechment but not 0.5 Beta for entrechment I have tried
My guess for threshold is that it means. Well, lets take a look at the positive properties. If it was time based, both thresholds would be Positive. I it means, with boom, With boom, it means if the players BUY 400 units of resources, (hence the positive property.) With crash, i means if the players SELL 400 units of resources, (hence the negitave property.)
I just had a CTD, This is exactly when, and possibly how it happened. While i was battling the enemies for this asteriod, i noticed that certain explosion effects had a white box! (graphics bug) It occured while i just colonized my first planet (asteriod) on nacey's balanced resources map. Checksum: 8221005 System: Windows vista home premium x86 (32bit) GPU: Nvidia 8600M GT
Alright, I re-downloaded the mod as normal, I defragged afterwards to make sure thee was no read-errors. And guess what. Mini-dump. This occured during Quick start, And i had 2 scouts randomly scouting, and the minidump occured while i was builing javelin figates.
Well I found one wierd thing. When i was TEC, every time i tried to capture an ice planet. It always CTD'd without warning or minidump. Wierd.
Oh boy, Diplomacy is a fun thing to play with actually, you can have quite the proxy war going on. The ingredients for a proxy war is... (This will require you to be a good economist.) Get a bot to give you atleast a cease fire. Fund him beyond what he asks for. Order him to attack an enemy. I pull this on one of my friends once, and the bot reigned down on him faster than lightning on crack. (and yes he was pissed at me.)
I did find that the latest version of nvidia drivers is.. 179.48 (for laptops atleast) And how can you run this game with just an 8400? Thats a reliable card!
I've found some strange network activity in my firewall's logs, I dont know what or who it is but i think you guys can help.

I cant wait until Blackknight's Graphical and Volumetic explosions gets put into this mod, because withoutthat my friends wont play it. I hope you put those in soon.
NACEY! I found a few things. Your research scaling skipped a few reasearches. Phasic transmissions: Theres only 2 researches for that with the same values as vanilla. Insurgency: 2 researches, same value as vanilla. Enhanced phase tunneling: 2 researches, same values as vanilla. Skilled Hangar anima: 2 researches, same values as vanilla. Pervasive economy (Im not to sue about if you scaled this one or not.)
I spotted a graphical bug with TEC starbase The build effect for the "Garda flak frigate" is misplaced on the left side. The build effects for NUMEROUS ships is misplaced/missing. The build effect im talking about is the little stream that constructors put out, these animations are CORRECTLY PLACED in the little glowing dock area of the TEC starbase. EDIT: When buildin from a starbase, the supply needed ISN'T
SUCCESS, I have found that this works with any mapless mod Distant stars Epic mod Anything else that doesn't install maps. You also have to clean out your custom galaxy folder, it gives you a fatal even ever you get to the custom maps part of the map selection if you do not do so.
ITs kind of nice that all the caps have AA on them now, I hated it when I couldn't fend off enemy strike squads, now i can.
KOL is slightly unbalanced. I had 269 damage with fully researched AC and the battlship was level 6 (Crew training)
I bet. I've played FFoW, It has the same engine, and it has many things wrong with it. But the caste system of this game is what bothers me.
There is many things that the community talks about (especially the Garda flak) that i dont understand. Example: People talk abouot the garda flak like it horrible, I think not, It has more armor and shield than the cobalts and it has better damage, not to mention the 360 degree guns that can cover your fleet from strikecraft while retreating. People also talk about the KOL battleship as unbalanced: This i can understand, because wit
I still say that the new flak still makes a good replacement for a cobalt. I mean, Come on, even though they're not as effective against fighters, they can still tear them some when you replace all your cobalts with them. I mean, The TEC has flak that can cover your fleet from strike squads as the fleet is jumping, (Due to its @$$ guns) Sure they're not like they were, but its still better than a freaking cobalt.
You have to go into folder options in the control panel (Classic view is the easiest) And set your folders, even hiddens ones, to be visible. Then go to "C:\ \ AppData\Local\Ironclad games\Sins of a solar empire\Mods The part of the path in bold will not be visible until you modify your folder options.

Well, Im not exactly afraid of MP. It just that too many people who play it either smurf, smash me in a determined attack, or rush me to have a fleet. There has to be more than one way to play sins than the fleet. I mean, I FAVOR being the exconomist, i love playing wars of attrition on the black market. I mean, If your TEC and you got the favored client discount, you can control the black market, you can buy low and set your sell price on the black market high
Hmmmm Whats this clan all about? I might want to just if its looking to "abstract" players. I like the roles of: Economist (I love taking over the black market with TEC) Trade specialist, Those phase nodes come in hady with vasari. Culture specialist: Advent loves their brainwashing. My online name is "Discohydra"
