Is this still not fixed? I remember this problem from a long time ago and it really irrated me! I'd like to play again and I like the Vasari, but if I run into this same problem, I'll get frustrated all over again. If it's still bugged, where can we petition for a fix?
I've been wondering about this also. I bought the original when it came out years ago, but I don't have any of the expansions. The expansion bundle seems expensive considering its age, and I've never seen it on sale. Since there was never any response to this thread, I'll repeat the question. Any chance of seeing the expansion bundle on sale? <

When I try to read the "Updates 1.17 ... 1.03 still not available" post in "Stardock Games" within Impulse, I get an IE error pop-up along the lines of "Can't open... Operation aborted." I can read the post fine if I use Firefox or IE. I have IE7 on my PC but don't use it unless forced to. WinXP Pro SP3
I've been working a similar problem with support. When I verify MyColors and Windowblinds 6 in Impulse one of them will report as installed incorrectly (needing an update) and the other will report as installed correctly. After I apply the update and reverify, their status swaps. I install the update for the other program and reverify and their status swaps back. This repeats forever. Support finally said that MyColors and WB seemed to swapping some registry key back and forth which confuses

[quote who="Lord_Mung" reply="1" id="2181407"]I recently posted a question regarding mouse errors in SOASE and Entrenchment. My problem is the pointer stops moving. The mouse continues to work, but I can't see where it actually is unless I happen to move over a menu item and it highlights. The pointer itself sits dead in the middle of the screen, or wherever it happened to be when it decided to give up. I just recently reinstalled Sins and Entrenchment, and this is the first time I

I think I've found a bug with SoaSE and/or OD+. Normally, I am running OD+ (latest version) with a zoomer dock on the left and tabbed docks at the top and right. I start Sins from the tabbed dock at the top. I've been running this way with no problems since I got OD+ a few months ago. I hadn't played Sins since the beginning of April due to RL. Tonight, I fired up Sins v1.16 (I don't have Entrenchment) and noticed the following problem. The mouse pointer is not

Let me start by saying that I'm not trying to flame or insult anyone. Quite the opposite. See my first reply to this topic. It just seems that for some people there is no tolerence for anyone to have a differing opinion or ask a question.

[quote who="Kruppe" reply="11" id="1976657"] I realize there's a trade-off. However, since SD is a private company and I don't think you work for them, I don't think you have the actual numbers/projections. We're just asking the people that do (SD), to make the call. read the thread, the did make the call, you want them to do the opsite of what they said [/quote] Actually, I have read the thread. It was stated that they wanted to do a campaign mode, bu

[quote who="Kruppe" reply="6" id="1976583"] I may not be in the majority here, but there also may be more people like me than you realize. And if the inclusion of a campaign mode/story line means more sales, that's a good thing for everyone. Again cost vs benefit spend 4252485424271$$ making a campain to sell 50000 or spend it making a game that works and keep the 900000 ppl that bought it, it's a no brainer [/quote] I realize there's a trade-off.

I must say that I'm surprised and dissapointed at the animosity displayed in this thread against those who want a story/campaign mode. The inclusion of one won't force anyone who doesn't want it to play it. Having said that, I must say that I wish there was a story line/campaign mode. Even though I only recently purchased Sins, I'm already getting bored with it. If/when an expansion comes ou
I'm new to Object Desktop so please forgive me if this is a stupid question. I used Impulse to update to IconPackager v4 when it was released. Upon completion it asked me for activation info (license, etc). This confused me since I thought it was part of Object Desktop and I have a valid Object Desktop Ultimate license. Anyway, I entered my OD Ultimate license info for IconPackager which seemed to make it happy. However, I started wondering, did I mess up my OD license by entering
Thanks for the demo. I have a couple of questions about it. I own the original Galactic Civilizations II. If I install this demo to try DA, will it cause problems with or overwrite my purchased installation of DL? If so, is there a seperate demo of just DA for those of us who already own the original and want to try DA? Thanks again.
Refreshing the XML data did the trick. The only .sdc files I found were in C:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral\BACKUP. I'm pretty sure those are my backup files since I've got "archive on update" or somesuch flag set. I left them alone and refreshed the version info. Then the update claimed it was successful. Thanks a lot CariElf!
I've tried updating as specified in the title, but it fails. I've pasted the end of the log below. I've tried both servers available (US-1 and US-2).

Thanks for the suggestion Kryo! I'm not sure if I knew about that and had forgotten or if I never knew. I guess what they say about the memory going is true. Anyway, when I first checked there were three listed. I believe they were US-California, US-Chicago, and a number. When I hit the refresh list button, the list changed to US-1 and US-2. Makes me wonder how it worked at all. I'll try these out. Thanks again!
I've been having this problem for a while now. When I update GalCiv II through Stardock, it takes forever. And no, I'm not talking about it first archiving the old version. After it does that it shows the file it's downloading and an estimated speed. Many times it shows a few bytes per second. Sometimes less than 1 byte per sec. I've got a download speed from my ISP of upto 5Mb/sec, so it's not that. Also, I run a network traffic monitor sometimes and the d/l speed reported by it pretty much mat
Yep, that happens to me quite often also. It does get annoying.
I have the same difficulity seeing the constructor's AoE. It is much fainter than the starbase AoE. I would love an intensity slider. BTW, I don't know which Race color is used since there are a couple of shades in my game. At any rate, I prefer not to change the Race colors. I mean they do differentiate the Races.
Yes, I have the same problem of not being able to tell the area of effect before it's built. Could this be added?
I've been updating GalCiv II through Stardock Central since I got the game. I have the "auto archive" option enabled and noticed it saves the .sdc file to the "BACKUP" directory. Now that the official 1.3 is out, I was thinking about cleaning out the beta backups and was wondering if it's OK to delete the old ".sdc" files from Windows? I didn't see a way to do it through SDCentral.
I researched Starbase Fortification and upgraded with all available modules. Later I researched Starbase Defense but no new modules became available. I assume this is a bug since I've never researched Starbase Defense before.
