No More 'Resource Level'? in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I have noticed in the 1.03 patch the game options menu has changed greatly, but I notice that there is no more option for Resource Level. Was this replaced with 'Resource Speed'? I now only seem to have 2 or 3 asteroids per planet instead of 4 and the extraction rate doesn't seem too much faster. Overall this has greatly slowed the pace of the game as I am constantly waiting on one resource or another to build up while I sit and twiddle my thumbs.

Reply to Black/blank screen -- flickering happening at random. in Technical Sins Forums

I am having the errors occur on XP/SP2 which I have found to be a really stable platform in every aspect so I don't think its the OS, rather than Nvidia's ineptitude. I formerly had Radeon 9200 or something then a 9550 or whatever their naming scheme is and never had a graphics error. I think this thread can be summarised with two words: Screw Nvidia.

Don't get me started on screen flickers. It's an issue with Nvidia, I've had it happening on my 7600GT for the last 6 months or so. It happens with WoW, Half Life 2 and regrettably SoaSE. Nothing makes you want to snap a $100 keyboard over your knee like a game crashing 10 minutes since your last save. I am unsure of how many of Nvidia's cards it occurs for but as of their most recent driver update I downloaded 2 days ago the issue is still unresolved. I don't think it's Ironclad or
