Erithtotl

I just started a new game and the entire map, including my own territory, planets and ships, are completely surrounded by FoW. Is this a known issue?

DELETE!

Just to confirm, I installed 100.65 (after doing a uninstall and driver clean), and DA crashed even faster than before on my 7950 system

I think there's a bug involving non-optimal defenses: they don't degrade. I've had some unexpected results in my own games similar to Erithtotl's story. You're using missiles against armor, which means that each weapon must roll against sqrt(150)=12 defense. The defense is supposed to be reduced by each attack roll, but that doesn't seem to be happening. Or maybe it's subtracting the attack roll from 150, rather than from 12. As for defeating these pirates, i

In my current game I'm involved in a long, drawn out war with the super-pirates. While they use a number of different combat ships, a standard model would be a frigate, approximate stats: hp 30, attack 100 (missle), defense 150 (armor) To counter them I've been building dreadnaughts with the following stats: hp 130, attack 130 (missle), defense 100 (anti-missle). Given a matchup up 4 of their ships against say, 3 of mine, I'd think I'd wipe the floor with the

Ok I figured it out, the game is crashing every time I try to colonize a particular planet.

My GC:DA has been crashing a lot, and in some save games it's been crashing at the same point over and over again. I'm running Vista with the Nvidia drivers, so I have assumed that that must be my problem, but I've noticed the last few times it's crashed the debug log stops at the same point. Any suggestions?

Can we get an update if things are still running properly for the original poster? And what version of driver clearner he's running?
