[quote]So i got my copy today, and i ordered the "Download + Retail Box" back in beta 1.For some reason the EU wants to tax me 225 danish kroner ($45) so the game have cost me atleast $90 lolJust want to let others living in the EU know so they dont get as surprised as i was[/quote] I preodred my copy. When I received I had to pay 0 euros in France for tax. You guys got ****ed up by your customs you should check with them.
[quote]so say a game is 49,99 in the US, we pay 59,99. 59,99 is basically the normal price of a new game, be it on 360/ps3 or PC. Some of the more expensive, regular edition console games can cost 69,99 and grossly content limited special editions will cost us 79,99(Im looking at you, need for speed carbon: black edition). At least we started paying US price for mega expensive bundles now(some, not most). A Psp game here costs between 39,99 and 49,99 and DS games vary from 25,99 to 39,99. So yea
And those companies never asked if it is the quality of the game that doesn't make the game sell ??? Comme on, Call of Duty 4 the key number is 4 here. The original Call of Duty was awsome and had nice ideas implemented but then they started dumbing down the game just like Medal of Honor. Bioschock. What a game. You needed PHD in computer science just to be able to start the damn game because of copy protection system. And while we are at it why Iron Lore doesn't ta
There is only one major issue. You don't know if the Sins are supporting animations on models ? Robotech or Macross will have zero value without varytech.
Hello, I've got my copy in France on friday and I preodred the game. I didn't have to pay any customs. The game was shipped 2 weeks ago according to the post office stamp from the US Mail services.
Hello, I live in France and I've just received my copy. I just want to let you know so you guys in Europe don't panic.
The problem with actual version of the game is that you need all files from a foldder that the file is in. For instence if you chenge lets say gameplay.constants whihc is in the gameinfo follder you need to copy entire folder not just that single file in your mod directory.
My guess is that they don't really know what they will put inside those tools. They just gave a generic awnser. IMHO they are to make reading forums and gathering data on what ppl are willing to do with this game. So we should make a single post where we will clearly explain what we are asking for and how deep we want those tools to go or if not tools then how deep we want to be able to mod the game. That post should be made sticky since it would give to IC a clues on how to do there m
What ressource drain ??? What are you taliking about. In HW2 when you were zoomed out enough another model was taking the place. The model with fixed turrets. Besides if they didn't implement it on all ships it is more because of the deadline. Don't forget that IC and SD are just a small team not a huge one such as EA. Some sacrefice had to be made and it was made on animations.
Common mistake is the pivot point. Check the poivot point on your models. It is used by any game engine to rotate and trnaslate the object.
[Quote]You'd be surprised. The ones who thought they could code diluted the community to the point where there was a bunch of vaporware mods and then decided to shit-talk anyone who disagreed with them about what could be done with the xmls. It was really a bad situation and only a couple mods survived intact. There's no reason .entity editing needs to be any simpler, I've made a thread for minimod requests so if someone wants something simple done and doesn't want to do it themselves they can s
I'm using Sins on Vista 32 bits with 8800 GTX and 169.25 WHQL drivers. I've turned bllom effect and maxed everything out since day one. I didn't experience a single game crash so far and I had about 10 games with each game at least 8 hours of play non stop.
There is a huge issue with the AI in the game. I did few testings and this is what I found. in FFA 4 or 8 players as long as you don't start researching fllet operations and star increasing capital chip limit the AI will simply ignor you and will let you all the time you want to fully research all technologies. In same game 4 FFA the AI will stop research after researching 18 tehnologies while in same period of time I managed to research over 56 technologies. It is needless t
I have just a single question for you. How we can force the AI to research high technologies and force it to stop spamming low level units (i.e. frigates). Thank you. P.S. I played with gameplay.constants but I didn't have any success.
Wait fo full release of mod tools. Those are just temporary files.
As far as fighters are concerned only TEC fighters/Bombers are maned.
Hello few suggestions on my part. 1) Make AI research more powerfull technology in military and in civilian 2) Fix stupid mission requests frm the AI player asking you to destroy X player's structures/ships eventhough you still didn't encounter the player in question 3) Make AI use guerilla warfare by attacking targets of economic intrest with smal fleet sizes 4) Allow us to have lockdown ability of the givenn system otherwise phaselane concept is completly u
Edit your gameplay.constant file for god sake and stop asking for it. Then find your friends and play the mod game. No need for dev to llok at this thread since they gave us means to do it on our own.

Thanks for the tip. Those frigats are ripping my planets apart.
Hello IC and SC. I love your game it is the first time that I'm so much takenn by a single game since Masters of Orion 2 and Imperium Galactica 2. However after playing games since day 1 I've found that Heavy Frigates (the ones used to bomb the planet) are way to cheap technique to ninja a planet. An AI is using this exploit and I was forced into this exploit against the AI. The worst part of this is that there is not even a proper defense against this kind of attack. Those frigates ar
yes you allow infocard for planets in the interface options and you will see how much crystal is being produced by sec by the givenn planet.
No matter what program you are using principels are allways same. For a frigat start with the box then devide that box into polygones. Create only as much polygones as you need. After that you will have to use extrude, bevel and vertix tools. You will shape you box to the model you want to create. Such technique is called low poly modeling and it is used for games mostly.
A little bit late for Euro gamers. Release at 1 Am.
What you see on the timer it is your Local PC time not the time of SD nor IC.
