Sins of a Solar Empire v1.1 BETA 3 Change Log

Coming to an Impulse client near you...

from Sins Forums

We're in the home stretch of the Sins of a Solar Empire v1.1 testing!  We're planning to release BETA 3 on Thursday (10/9/08) and follow-up with one more update later this month before calling v1.1 final.

Here's the changelog for BETA 3:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sins of a Solar Empire v1.096 (aka 1.1 beta 3) Changelist
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note: It's named v1.096 instead of 1.1 beta 3 because the Games for Windows version tools won't let us use letters. This was a common question and I agree its confusing. I would change it if I could :P -Blair

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gameplay / Balance:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Changed pirate raid target selection so that it is guaranteed to always pick from among the players with the most bounty on them.
-Fixed bug where ships in fleets would try and return to their rally point. Thanks to everyone on the forums involved with tracking this down.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Graphics:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Fixed bug in normal calculations for meshes that don't have them provided.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
UserInterface / HUD:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Quick pirate bounty window no longer allows putting bounty on players who have lost.
-Quick market and Quick Bounty windows are now hidden during recorded game playback.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Modding:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Fixed bug in normal calculations for meshes that don't have them provided. (Will improve lighting of custom meshes that are relying on Sins to generate normals)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Misc:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Fixed various version control problems (achievements, user settings, etc).

Im kinda intrested in tryin the beta, i went to impulse and i might as well be lookin for bin laden. where on impulse is there anything to DL that doesnt cost $ (the beta for example)

tyr222,

You need to actually install IMPULSE

www.impulsedriven.com/impulse_setup_full.exe

Run the setup as the ADMIN account (if your account isn't an admin)

Once installed, run IMPULSE and it'll ask you to register.  Use the email you used to purchase SINS (of if you purchased sins in the store register your CD-key with the email address you want to have tied to SINS forever! )

Then click the BLUE ORB (upper left) and make sure show "pre-release versions" is checked.

Then click "my games"

See SINS there.......and update to the latest BETA

done!

thanks,

the Monk

Click the BLUE ORB in the upper left corner in Impulse and make sure "show pre-release versions" is checked.

Tyr, I came back to v1.05 just for you and gave you the instructions.  I thought you wre going to be in the beta by now.  Anyway, hurry it up, because CoN and Cykur are here and we are getting some good games in.  PM me when you are on and I'll switch back to v1.05 to help you out.

I too love Impulse. It is not intrusive at all, you only need it if you want updates. Not many games on it have DRM and none of the Stardock games do. It is like steam except alot less intrusive and with less DRM and restrictions.

OK, in my opinion impulse is a massive sack of shit that wasted hours of my time. i finally figured out how to DL Beta. it got to 100% downloaded, then goes to "verifying download" and impulse crashed. tried it a couple times same thing!!! if impulse where a person Id punch it in the face!!!!

any word on 1.1 before november hits?

Or is it being pushed back so entrenchment can hit it's november release?

Reply #39 from Sins Forums Top

good question... but i think entrechment is being released after 1.1,   or perhaps entrenchment also contains the 1.1 :/?

out of date. I wanted to rant about stilakus having to give 200 AM for distortion field, but then I noticed it has 350 base AM pool, so it's fair.

Dear guys

 

I have a great problem since SoaSE 1.1 : I'm french, and I've special characters like "é" or "à". But when I play Sins, thoses characters are replace by "□". That's not usefull !

Many frenches words have thoses special characters, so it's vey hard to understand sentence !

 

 

How to have frenches characters ?

 

thank's

The current patch is English only. Kalypso should be getting French and German patches on Impulse soon we've heard, but I don't know when exactly.
