My registration lapped for DesktopX - today! See ya around, when some updates value outweighs rental yearly costs (30$+/IIRC). In the meantime -- somehow this continent has shifted to #OWS priorities, all over the news. And iPads sell like mushrooms in the valley of Capitalism - checked Apple market shares & dividends paid to investors lately? While FaceBook & Android... makes technology into a bubble device of growth and wealth, again. Check o

[quote who="Zubaz" reply="483" id="3125530"] 3.96 was pulled back to have more work done on it.[/quote] Just got a reply from Aaron Klenke in which he also states 3.5 is the latest "stable" version... any chances of fixing 3.96 - soon? (PS; early growing pains [e digicons]:omg:[/e] for the new SDC only, i guess!)
SDC still showing the 3.5 file only after following your suggestion, bara. So, version 3.96 mentionned earlier isn't listed or available --yet--? Looks like i'm gonna have to cope with GameStop Impulse and THEIR unsynchronized files for authentic Stardock most recent updates.
Alright - let's try this solution for DesktopX since all other components seem to be listed correctly in my Account page.
Sooooo... should i UN-Install Gamestop's Impulse (and the broken 3.5 above) in order for SDC to (eventually and before April 26th in my case, btw!) provide me with the most recent version of DesktopX and if so, will i still be able to access GC2-DL+DA+TA files as bought? Still need some clear answers since Impulse seems to conflict with the current SDC features.
[quote who="Wizard1956" reply="471" id="3120744"] Currently, DX3.50 is the only thing showing in SDC or the store/accounts. Do not install it, as it is broken...[/quote] That s'plains it. What SDC actually gave me is the much older (2008) 3.5 version instead of the most recent file(s) which i paid and renewed up until last April 2011 as DesktopX Pro. Want the registration code, Stardock? If so, contact me - you know exactly where and how.
Might have to uninstall GS-Impulse unless someone explains why SDC doesn't update (10MB) DesktopX... downloads the file but keeps the activating_box off from initialization. 64bit_OS, maybe?
Freezes on a DesktopX update while activation doesn't trigger the install process... i'm guessing that's what happens when Gamestop/Impulse is conflicting with SDC since i had no choice but to use it also to re-install GC2 ( not Ultimate version) & X-Com:Complete which i both bought from Stardock.
Zubaz, Is it just me or the GC2(DL+DA+TA) files & our proper data-registrations aren't implemented yet in SDC?
Thanka'yo for SDC! Call it "bad timing" if you want but i just lost the whole PC wednesday evening. The CPU fan connector tilted just far off the chipset in the tower (there should be a BIOS loud noisy beeper when overheating occurs, damn it!). The techguy said the MoBo & 500G-Sata & PW-600W-TR2 & Vid-card went fried as well. Lucky me i had some if not few of the essentials backed-up on March 2nd... but not the entire D:Drive (12Gigs of files, right there).
[quote who="Island Dog" reply="283" id="3087306"]It's in extended testing now, so hopefully within the next couple of weeks possibly. [/quote] Extended testing = Beta status. Couple of weeks = This month of April or (somehow) less. [e digicons]:X[/e] I can wait, sure i do.
Tracking, scanning, verifying - waiting to *return* in the true professional hands of SDC'entral. Expecting a galactic uproar of a "Welcome back", boys. [e digicons]:borg:[/e]
Great news! Will your membership_customers be advised through eMails once that brand new SD-Central product is activated? Just got an update for GC2-Twilight (editors or somethin'!) & SkinStudio-7 from GS and somehow it didn't feel like an authentic StarDock process! Keep us informed, please.
TOV, It may surprise you to learn that i actually didn't make the tri-color "stadium" you inserted in your earlier post. I just provided the ASA modteam with a whole bunch of filtered_recolored_warped assets (Icons+Queries) and they picked up the FootBall soon after while probably adapting some of my work to their particular needs. Considering i multi-tasked editing steps for about two weeks worth of extensive decisions *for free*... it's kinda puzzling to find out som
Fair shot at some fame, i guess... but read on down that "list" and you'll see a few discrepencies, IMO! Some that should be waaaayyyyy up (+) in rankings and others that simply aren't located at the proper ratings slot i'd personally give over while considering FPS, MMO & RPG gameplay (of all time, btw) weirdness also; 81. Sim City 2000 (+) pivotal product for micro-managing complex systems. 76. Crysis (++++) Kill 'hem all if that's your kinda bloody fun.
Alright - done. I had to use 4shared which smoothly looped up the next four files on their server. USFM-1 USFM-2 USFM-3 <a href="http://www.4shared.com/file/cmJhN6CI/Ultimate_S
Sure, i still have the whole MOD archived on some external BlueBerry HD. I'll pull out the four RAR files (3 at 100MBs+ and the last about 6MBs) and upload them to FileServe later this afternoon, but this process takes time on my extremely slllllooooowwww ISP_bell_CA uploading speed limits... i'll be back with the validated Links once done. EDIT; Okay, i've wasted enough of my precious Bandwidth time with that stupid FileServe junk site... it kept refusing to process any of th
Not to be "annoyingly" insistent... Please *DO* fix the long overdue situation where Tiles terrain naming is screwed when we scan through them (planets) in the usual sequence. And -- hopefully -- begin work on early development steps of an entirely new GCIII version (Now, that the behemot Civ-5 is out, i think StarDock *must* hit the gaming market with its modernized flagship product once more, asap!!). [e digic
Yeah well... the point of having a *local* library where we can "still" upload our stuff is just that -- the place is genuine, owned & operated by SD staff and we can actually reach *much* more people (as in formal & pro-active membership and true believers in the game!). Sadly, everything i've worked on over the last few months (ie; XWorlds & CoSH) cannot be shared with anyone *HERE* unless they fix it. [e digicons]
Mobo goes Kaboom, Kaput, Black Holed to Hell! Yep, even more "problems"... the relatively old Acer Tower blewup the NVidia board. It was to be expected since the default PS only gave out 300W altogether. I have so many devices connected to this, i *WAS* asking for troubles eventually. So, i figured i might as well put in a new PS too and found a pretty good ThermalTake rated at 600W+. Then, came along the hard choice of a compatible (but slightly better & new board
Well, i'll be darned... that worked flawlessly! Going from my default "Frenchy_Québecky_OS" to a properly managed registry entry in (essential!) English really was a strange solution if you ask me! Besides, the normal stock game_fonts were *also* fixed while this reg file merging process did its (or yours, in fact!) magic. As usual, many thanks for your kind & swift response and help, Kryo. Now, i can
Ooopppss, forgot to mention this important fact; strangely, TA loads and plays fine!
After losing a whole 500gigs drive, i had to restart from a brand new one. So, i figured might as well pickup a copy of Win7 and go on from there. Lotsa of files were lost and i have yet to try recuperating a few "important" things from the blasted HD... but that didn't stop me from putting the essentials (SeaMonkey_Browser, AVG_Free, Gimp, a few games, etc) into the new OS. Problem is, when i went to re-install all three GC2 from a fresh Impulse setup(btw)... download
FIX it , StarDock. ...or else, X-Worlds' #07-C fleets & other modded stuff will forever remain mine -- only!
NBC, beware. CNN is old news, now. [e digicons]:grin:[/e] We want GC3! Soon, or we'll start our own TeeVee show.
