>>In the Star Trek universe, the Structural Integrity Field System (or SIF) is an array of multiply redundant power systems designed to provide structural support to a starship's spaceframe to keep it from deforming under the extreme stresses of spaceflight... Well... you said it: "In the Star Trek universe", last time I've checked, this is the GalCiv universe, i.e. no Klingons, no Vulcans and maybe no SIF...

First of all, congratulations for an excellent game... I've been developping systems for almost 20 years now and I can understand the problems related to multiple systems configuration. That being said, my road to making the game stable on my system was a strange one and I would like to share my personnal experience about it... I got it all, crashes, blue screens, drop to the desktop, lockups etc... this game brought me back years in the past when I had to customize t
