Im still new to this mod, was wondering where you are getting the story from, actual ST universe, or making it up as you go.  I like it regardless!  I noticed that on the Fed ships it has disruptors listed.  Is that just something that hasnt been changed or will the feds ships be packing them?

There is a "hint" on the story in the previous page, reply #1549.

Well dang fine job on what you have done and big kudos for getting it back up and going.  Im simply stunned as I play the Federation, listening to the music and simply smile as I hear the different songs thru out the game.  This has totally remade my Sins game experience and will enjoy this for as long as i can!  

I know im supposed to send ideas to the email but i cant right now cause of my email account password i forgot. Well these are ideas i have upgrades from a regular galaxy to the venture refit galaxy, or the refit galaxy dreadnoght. Just ideas I thought i throw in.

I personally tested the converted mod harpo uploaded many times with developer.exe, and it works fine on my end. I have no clue why its crashing on others box's. Which is why i put the "Try at your own risk" there.

Did you use harpos download link, or try to convert the 1.03 version to 1.041 yourself? Like i said it works for some but not for others and i dont understand why. Which is why we are pushing for our next update. If it doesnt work just sit back and be patient we are on it.

Stress, i'm unable to edit the hardpoints of the Fed starbase, can you put the xsi file in your folder please and the textures. 

I had my first long run yesterday, tweaking 3E.2, with mixed results. looks like i'll have to keep tweaking it until its right. I did however have a very successful defense with the station and hander defense when the 2 AI's teamed up against me and zerged to my homeworld. just goes to show strike craft are really valuable for defense. I did make some minor tweaks with the starbase files, nothing stat wise, but setup wise.  

download a older version of msn and it should work

TNG was the best of the series in my opinion.

By the way, why not include the Reman Warbird as a capital ship for pirates?

We cant read the mini dumps. Only the Sins Developer's can. We are not programmers. Most of us cant even code. So the dumps are useless to us. Try running sins using developer.exe and document the errors as they come up (if you can).

I have stated above in the main topic that the converted soa2 works for some, but not for others. The converted copy i run has only ONE dev.exe error that is the same one Harpo reported before he uploaded the file, and its not a game crashing error. We cant support the converted copy, because if dumps for you we wouldnt know where to start to fix it.

The only things i can suggest until we release our next update is...

Uninstall sins. This includes deleting the entire "ironclad games" folder where you put your mods. delete it all. then do a fresh install through impulse, or from an impulse archive file. Run it, and make sure it all works with no problems

Make sure the mod is installed correctly. In the proper mod folder (mods-entrenchment 1.041). Make sure that there are not TWO instances of an SoA2 mod folder (one inside of the other). This happens sometimes if you auto extract rar files. It is best to manually create a new SoA 2 mod folder, and then manually drag the contents of the rar into it. Make sure you open the rar so you see the folders "galaxy, gamedata, textures," etc etc. then select all, and drag it into your newly created SoA 2 folder. Sins is very finiky about this.

Make sure no other mods are in your mod folder except soa2, and try running the mod again.

Make sure you are not running other mods with SoA 2. like any map, or effect enhancer mods. We did not design SoA2 to be compatable with any "add-on" mods like that. Because we did make our own effects, and we did change the maps. So running any add on would more than likely break the mod.

Run the mod with sins default effects settings at first. or all settings on low. Then work your way up to highest setting. Try all of the settings, and see if its an "out of memory" dump. Sometimes if sins "thinks" you are running out of ram it will dump. This is not the mods fault.. its sins fault. We designed the mod so that any machine that can runs sins should be able to run the mod with no problems, but you never know.

If all else fails it is very possible you have a corrupt download. try redownloading the mod again.

That is all i can think of.

jmmccrea,

for the developer sins look in the exe's folder ie program files\stardock games\sins of a solar empire, then scroll down the list untill you see TWO sins and entrenchment icons, one of each of the files will have 'Dev' just before the exe. these are the developer versions.

ironclad has started supplying the dev builds with EACH patch at last as I had suggested to blair in an email back at the release of 1.02

harpo

I noticed that the akira now take 49 supply!!!! Is that correct? That is more than two Vorcha at 19 supply. Great job on the mod guys, it has been alot of fun this last year!

Geez the intrepid doesn't seem much weaker, and they only cost 10. I think you would just build 5 of those instead of one akira. The amassador only costs 43, and is much meaner. I don't mean to complain, but you might want to rethink that number for the heavy crusier slot!

 ih its been a while since i played this game i ended up plauing eve online  i just wanted to know if you still had the md for just  for sins and not the interenchment version,i know this isnt the thread for this question but im just wondering  thanx
