Congrats on your anniversary. As for the best mods, I would recommend DANMAN's 7 Deadly Sins mod. It has better effects, new planets, and a lot of new races. Unfortunetly, the current release is a little buggy, but the next release should be soon.
Well, I remember that a couple months ago, before we knew about the min-expansions, they said that they were working on an expansion that would have a new race, as well as other stuff. It seems like I heard that this big expansion is going to come out after the mini ones are all out. If that's the case, I don't think that there will be an mention of the new race in the mini-expansions. But please, no pitchforks or torches. Sins as it is is too awesome to want to attack the d

LOL!!!!!!!!! Take care, Justin S. [/quote] I can't wait for the new season! I just wish it was closer to Janurary. Or November 18th. Back on topic: Samuryre, have you had time to instal your mods yet? Do they work?

That second picture you posted is the Beta version of the Kol Battleship. I don't know what the first one is, but I would asume that it is also from the beta.
Stardock + Ironclad, you guys are the best! I have never enjoyed a game as much as I have with Sins. Plus, you have the best support and comunity of any game I've ever seen. You guys are AMAZING!!![e digicons]:grin:[/e]
It depends. The large maps can take a long time, but the smaller ones don't take nearly as long. For me, I only play huge maps, so the games typically last many hours. Save is your friend! I would say that you are doing nothing wrong.
I'm going to have to agree with those who think that radomizing Sins is a bad idea. Like Tridus said, if you can micro 2 frigates to kill 2 HCs, I'm fine with that. But if my fleet of 10 cap-ships and 200+ assorted other ships is taken down by 50 ships and one cap-ship because of some lucky little thing, I am going to be really pissed and will probably never play the game again. Lucky shots make great movie scenes (if done correctly), but they do not make fun gameplay. If I build a Death Star

[quote who="DarthCaedusMorgan" reply="12" id="1930378"] Wait, there are going to be more new ships in Entrenchment besides the torpedo frigate? You had said earlier that the Vasari and Advent wouldn't necissarily be getting new ships to counter the new defences. Can you give us a hint as to what the new ships are? Please? then that would ruin the fun of a new expansion! [/quote] But its so close to coming out, and news has totally dried up about it. I just w

Mine is back now, too![e digicons]:grin:[/e] [e digicons]:grin:[/e] I hope that you can install your mods.
[quote]I am still in desperate need of someone that can make the abilities for the ships (if I don't get someone to do it then they will be left out of the next version)[/quote] I can't garentee anything, but if you really need me to, I'm willing to give it a shot. I don't have a whole lot a free time, between school, trying to learn how to texture for Danman, and playtesting the "D" version of his mod, but if I can help you out, I will. What kind of abilities do you have in mind?
My smiley button is still missing : ( I guess I'll have to do it the other way until it shows up. Did you get your mod/s successfully installed? Speaking of which, if you don't mind my asking, which mods are you trying to instal?

XselenS: I respect your opinion, but I want to point out a couple of things to you about 7DS. [quote]1. It slows down my computer like **ck (not sure about other peoples computers though)[/quote] You might try lowering your graphics settings a little. That usually helps a little. [quote]2. It's a mod so no one plays it online and versing comps just sucks[/quote] There are actually quite a few people who play it online. They just don't do on the Sins server. The
[quote]Secondly, I am in the middle of codding FACTORY SHIPS! Ie. Extremly large vessels capable of creating ships 'on the fly' as they fly from grav well to grav well! Only problem is that each ability = 1 ship which means that it can only construct 4 ships (I decided to add a carrier, tank, long-range and last is TBD).[/quote] Danman's 7DS mod has something like that. The Arilou in his mod have a mothership that can spawn other ships. The only thing is, I don't think that it is poss

If that doesn't work, I would suggest that you enable hidden files. It should be and option somewhere in the system preferances menu. ShadowMastiff is right, no one is incompetent. We all had to start somewhere.
Wait, I just remembered a place that has instructions for XP. Ok, here it is for XP: C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Application Data\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods I hope that this helps. Once it is in, just follow the second part of my previous instructions: [quote]On the main menu, go to Options, then to Mods. Select the mod that you want to play and click Enable.

Once you have downloaded the mod, you need to put the files in (if you have Vista) C:\Users\(Your User)\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Mods I have no idea what it is for XP. Once the mod is in that folder, start up the game. On the main menu, go to Options, then to Mods. Select the mod that you want to play and click Enable. The game might pause for a couple of seconds, but don't worry. After it unpauses, the mod should be ready for you to play.

I think that I'm going to have to cry myself to sleep tonight, partly because of the beauty of D, and partly because I won't be able to take part in that beauty until tomorrow night.

[quote who="tetleytea" reply="3" id="1923107"]Maybe we should be turning our attentions to Blizzard instead. SCII and D3 are not released yet. [/quote] Yeah, but have you heard what they are doing with SCII? They're splitting it into 3 different games, and I believe that you have to buy each one at or near full price for a complete game.
