seriously??? this game like most things made in the usa USED to work!!! not any damn more... wtf??? fix your damn "Apply changes" button IN THE GAME. I am so thoroughly sick and tired of having to retype the info in the damn "enabled mods" file every damn time i change mods to play!!! That's NOT MY DAMN JOB. you, the game creators created that aspect of the vanilla game so that it would be easier to use mods. IT DOESN'T WORK and neither has it worked cor

oh ok thanks. sorry for re-thrashing-to-death something that already was thrashed to death :)

oh ok, thanks Geofan !

i mean, why write it "hard code" in 32 bit? there should be more than enough 64 bit win 7 OS's out in circulation to warrant at the very least writing Rebellion in code that would work better with 64 bit machines. Hell, sins itself came out when win7/vista was definitely about to be released. Writing this stand alone game in a "Softer coding" that would perform well with win7 64 bit would have solved a lot of your headaches concerning that old fashioned 2Gig rule for memory.

yes, if i enable the following races, my game wont even start. Races are the following; Alliance, new republic, CIS and CORE. I get a negative checksum. i believe it was the creator that said that the checksum being negative had nothing to do with the mod crashing, but If those 4 races regularly crash the mod, why send it out to the public. It's not stable enough to play. I'm very interested in this mod as i love the star wars universe!

yes, thanks, myfist0, I was just gonna work with the generic files that are in text format from Harpo's reference files. This is what i'm looking to do... i want to increase planetary defense, like boosting the hanger defense file and and making all races star bases be able to move around a gravity well also shoot at least half the distance of a grav well. I tried to boost certain things in the planetary hanger defense file, but i think that file was the one that crash

how do i make a mini mod that would work with lots of mods. It would just be a few mega maps with my increased artifacts planets and more extractors per small planets like the asteroids and moons. yes, i did try to find this answer on the Idiot's guide to sins modding page before asking this question here. thanks

fixed the game by uninstalling it and reinstalling it. thanks.

hi Harpo, yes i just got done verifying the install in steam as you said. it says the files are verified. Then i did as you suggested and deleted the settings folder in my games folder and restarted steam and rebellion to no avail. The game is stuck in the sins-plus mod. I had forgot that i had the mod activated before i started messing with the Galaxy folder to increase the number of artifacts on a map. How do i do a hard removal of a mod from the "enabled" part of th

yeah, i messed up :( now the game is broken and i don't know how to make steam uninstall the rebellion game so i can reinstall it. I put the original file back to what it originally was, but to no avail. I shut down the steam client, but it still wont reset to the original settings. How do i get the game back to original? i'm gonna make a copy of my mods 1.041 folder so once the game is back to original. i can just place the mod folder back into it. Then i'

oh ok thanks. but now i have another question.. i've always Created a custom map for each mod that i play, just so i have many, over 100, planets to play with in my games. I've never used the "galaxy Forge" thing, not that i know of; that is. SO i change the artifacts in a "custom made game" in the ".galaxy" file? oh dang, well, i havent been able to find the ".galaxy file". I'm working from harpo's reference files for 1.041. I've looked in t

thanks, i found them. also found that with the reference files i can read all of the rebellion files... so modding should be easier than it was before. Thanks Harpo for converting the files. Only other question i have at this time is, How do i change the number of Artifacts showing up in a particular map. I know the number is a % of the total number of planets on the map. Also, once I know how to change the raw number of artifact planets, where do i find the exa

hi, i wanted to ask which entity files i would want to modify for rebellion 1.041 to increase the number of metal and crystal we can find to mine at asteroids from the normal 2-3 to like 6 of each to start with. including how i would also modify the basic planets would also be great. I remember there once was a mod that had bunches of resources to mine, but i think it's been removed or just doesn't work for 1.041. Thanks for any answers and i hope this is where i was s

Harpo, thanks very much for the files we can manipulate for rebellion. now, where would i find the instructions for putting "My personal changes for sins rebellion" into rebellion so i can play my changes? For right now i just want to upgrade the starbases to actually have "extended range" that means half of the gravity well and for all bases to move. To me doing that would go along way to balancing the game. It sucks and is a waste of funding to build an immova

i did read every single word you wrote before i made my reply. I don't doubt your abilities as a mod maker or any other designation that you wish to coin yourself as. If i would have seen, maybe put it simply in bolder font... 1.6x is for reb 1.31. That would have sufficed, period. and Yes D S I slammed your page cause it was very difficult to find what version you have made and what version of the real game your latest mod was for and

Hey here is a positive idea... put your mod up on moddb. The sins forum has sucked for years. But PLEASE put the download link for your v1.61 at the top of your posting on moddb and tell us what version of rebellion it is for. DON'T say..."for the latest version of rebellion".

Hi could you please put your very impressive mod on moddb.... also a hugh fan of zombierus's mod. Thanks for making this awesome addition to the sins universe. It's quite nice to get a mod that you really do need to think before you act unless you want to get your butt kicked :))

ya know, this is getting to be typical of how American corporations decide to treat their customers. It's doesn't matter whether your on a impulse or stardock account cause they are both the SAME DAMN FRACKING company. If their stupid internal twits can't figure the fact out that they are alienating some of their old-skool customer-base. they don't deserve our support!!!! The Impulse system is designed to get the information from our original StarDock accounts; in any

to 'The Resonator"... first, thanks for your input. It is appreciated, but i wrote this post for teh maker of the mod because his instructions are so darn difficult to follow as you just reitterated in your posting. I will wait for him to finish his mod and put his mod into the format that other modders are doing. namely put all the applicable folders adn files in one master mod folder adn then we just download it and install it in our 'mostlovely designed microsoft fucked up fashiuon of doin

hey dolynick, i downloaded and installed ur mod 'dolynick_SGGalaxy-e1.0.2, enabled it, got this checksum number 111953671, but nothing changed when i went to play the game. now, from reading on here, it should have changed the whole game to where i could choose some other raceslike (wraith, ancient....) besides teh vanilla ones of the TEC, advent and Vas.. also, what do u mean by...'Manifiest friendly'? i chose this one cause it said it included some of your other related SG m

yeah, it's NOT funny at all when i can find mods for sins from the modders, that the mods actually works with the lasest sins entrenchment update 1.04 on their personal pages, but if i go to either the sins download page or use impulse to get new up-to-date mods for entrenchment 1.04.. i get directed to a page that only lists shit that is from AUgust 09!!!!! wtf? stardock/impulse???? get ur act together and update teh damn mod site! I already see that your customer serv

hi yes, i downloaded teh above mentioned rar from the dolynick page. i downloaded this particular one cause it was supposed to include all 3 of his/her mods. the way in which i read what he wrote was that this rar would install all three mods in the proper order and in the proper place in my modsentrenchment 1.04 mods folder just like any other mod made specifically for sins-entrenchment 1.04 mods. wtf? how difficult is it to clearly write install instructions to install somet

Hey JasonFJ... just wanted to chime in here and say a hugh thanks for making a great and well balanced MOD.
