Reply to Numbers Dwindling. in Sins Multiplayer Sins Forums

I stopped playing online when I started using the Sins Plus mod and the mod that gives you 10,000 fleet points. I found maps with 1 or 2 stars with tons of planets to be unrealistic and not as interesting as maps with 10-20 stars with less planets, and I thought the planet type variety was lacking. When you play with lots of stars, the standard fleet sizes(even using large fleets) are not enough to defend all of your stars. You get more of an epic feel with large maps with lots of stars, in my o

Reply to Anyone else having trouble downloading? in Twilight of the Arnor GalCiv2 Forums

The problem was that I didn't uninstall my beta version! Once I did that everything worked fine. Anyone else who has this problem....make sure you've uninstalled the beta version first! You can do it straight from Stardock Central by right clicking on your Twilight icon in the My Games section.

Anyone else having trouble downloading? in Twilight of the Arnor GalCiv2 Forums

I've been at it for three hours now.....it downloads all the way to 100% then starts over. It has done this a number of times and each time it is the same file name gc2_Twilight.sdc so it is not a series of consecutive files that you need to run the game. Is this happening to anyone else or is it just me?

Reply to download 59 percent in Twilight of the Arnor GalCiv2 Forums

The same thing is happening to me, except it is going all the way up to 100%, then starting over at zero. This has happened at least half a dozen times over nearly three hours so far, and is still going.

Reply to Mass Scuttle ability in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I'd like to see a mass scuttle command. As it stands now I use ships that have lost their usefulness as cannon fodder, and use those fleet points to build more appropriate ships as they come. Not as big of an issue with things like trade posts that you want to change to frigate factories though, there just aren't as many of them.

Reply to Expelled: Is Intelligent Design a Science? in Everything Else Sins Forums

I don't think intelligent design should be taught in the schools. However, darwinist evolutionary theories should be taught as theories, not facts, holes in the theory should be pointed out, and it should not be taught as proof that there is no creator. When you start teaching it as proof of a Godless universe, you are teaching a religious viewpoint, and supposedly that is not allowed in public schools.

This mod is supposed to include the mod with the extra planet types right? I thought it was but either the new planet types are EXTREMELY rare or something isn't loading right. edit: my bad.....I downloaded the wrong one originally

How to you change fleet cap limits? in Sins Modding Sins Forums

I can't seem to find a thread that explains how you can change or eliminate fleet caps. Can anyone explain to me how this is done? Or perhaps there is a mod for this out there already? I like to play on huge maps, where the fleet caps make it very difficult to defend all of your systems and stay on the offensive, and I'd like to mod the fleet caps to make the game a bit more "epic map" friendly. Thanks!

Reply to 1.04 ?!? in Technical Sins Forums

Well at least I'm going into this patch knowing that my past save files won't work. That really caught me by surprise last time. A shame to have to end my 20+ hour game like this, but hey I gotta get some practice in for my early game strategies anyway. :D

Hey! It's been a while since I hosted a game! I have some free time tomorrow(Friday) night though, and I'd love to have a crack at hosting another one, probably at 8pm eastern. If anyone is interested let me know! Also, I have Ventrilo now so I can do in-game voice chat too.

Reply to No Limits Mod in Sins Modding Sins Forums

I like to play on maps with lots of stars with few planets on them, and the fleet caps do seem rather limiting on those maps, even with the big fleets option. When you pretty much have to build a fleet for every star you own, your forces can get thinned out quickly. In a way that is not so bad because it forces you to think about tactics and strategy more, but at the end of the day this is a game with only one victory option(the military one) and it gets difficult to defend your systems and buil

Reply to Invalid Save Files after 1.03 update in Technical Sins Forums

In most games that I have played, when you update the game you can still play the old games but they won't have the features of the new patch. I guess I shouldn't have assumed anything but it was still disheartening to see that I could no longer play an epic game that I had been playing for a couple of weeks. I was pissed for a while. Then I started playing a new game and got over it. lol

Reply to Is there a way to uninstall the patch? in Technical Sins Forums

Unfortunately I downloaded the game, and it looks like Stardock automatically downloads the most recent version. That sucks. Like I said I've been playing the game for a couple of weeks now and it was just starting to reach a turning point.
