Yep, exactly the same here. Go for Sensors 1 and then at the least Ion Drive, Impulse MK 1 if i think the map requires it. My question is, what do you do with them after the anomalies are gone? Me, i turn them into freighters. <img src="http://m

Hi all, bought a new Microsoft mouse, Wireless Optical Mouse 2.0 recently, and now i have lost the rotate function in the ship designer. I have set the button properties for the scroll wheel to middle click and for the first couple of sceonds it works fine then stops and won't happen again unless there has been a restart. Any ideas? Thanks.

Generally, if you can post on the forum, you can patch your game. This is an absurd statement. Many, many people post from work or from another pc than the one they play the game on. Why is it for you to say that if you can post you can update, there is a real issue about Stardock no longer releasing stand alone updates because like the op, many do not have net on the pc they use to play. Open your eyes and think about what you are saying before posting.

also, have you googled the error code reported on the BSOD (or in the event log)? I never see it, it flashes up and restarts so quick i cant catch what one it is, could you tell me where the event log is located please. but I do know for a fact that the 7600GT needs a minimum of 450 watts from the psu. Ok, well one of my thoughts was that the PSU being old and all was not up to the task and as such work

Hi all, For about 6 months now (maybe longer) i have had many crashes when playing, it has occured across many patches and in DA too. The crashes range from CTD's with error reporting, CTD's w/out error reporting,, lockup's and restarts which result in about 50% of those being BSOD's. I have used Smart-Ex often and submitted many logs to Cari and she has deterrmined that it it not galciv crashing but rather a problem with my system. Now on some occasions after a BSOD i get the

Way to go Wyndstar!! I'm cloning your playing style so thank you for the tips, it lead to my highest score and what would have been another 40,000 plus score but for a cheat flag(economy bug).

to create a mod metaverse Yes! This is a great idea. Wyndstar, over in our HCH forum we have our own little council to assist Quixen and MarshallONeil in bringing ideas and suggestions to the MVC. I really think you would be invaluable in this endeavour, it would be ideal to have your insight and ideas brought to the fore, of course if you are interested that is. It is still in it's infancy but really worth checking out. <a hre

I had learned that building anymore than 1 vr was not going to do my morale any good so i stopped building more than 1 some time ago. How much a factor are your morale resources in this scenario? How many do you have and are they maxed out, i assume they are, would no morale buildings be viable in a situation with little to no morale resources, because i find resources at times are counter productive, in that, when at war, the amount of money/time put into constuctors to always re-build them aft

You can actually buy extra packs of the red and white tokens, well hre in australia i did anyway. They came out about the same time as the Pacific and Euro theatre packs were released.....a instant buy the moment i saw them. They were about $14.65au so a bit less for you guys in the states.... <a href="http://thehighcommandhegemo
