C:\ProgramData\Stardock\Elemental - War of Magic doesn't have a \temp folder, only \screens and \impulsereactor along with the crash dumps. I really am quite puzzled. Screenshot, just for fun.

[quote who="Bill_Door" reply="19" id="2642438"]Speaking of NPCs, is the only way to recruit them going to be paying them Gildars? Because there are a lot of other interesting possiblities there.[/quote] Like an NPC/Creature which eats mana from a particular shard instead of asking for gold?

Prefer Fallout 1 in all its broken glory. I think the most interesting part was that there were several classes of finish (complete victory, the master lives but mutant army destroyed, etc.) that you could only really discover if you were talking over with friends and you're like: yeah I killed the army base and it was awesome! Your friend responds: but that's not the end of the game! ... best moment, period. Also, I think there's a general gaming topic group you could mov
Nifty. How do you plan to teach the player not to build on beaches (and thus create useless cities)? I could imagine that being a frustrating experience for a new player.

Not finding them on Win7 using the search functionality for CoreTechs, CoreTech or CoreTechs.xml. Thanks for the attempt though.
[quote who="Tormy-" reply="5" id="2642272"] Quoting Thiryn, reply 3Isn't this your third account now? Eh...yeah. [/quote] I think its his third name. His previous (Middle) name, VladimirVladimir or something like that appears to have been changed to ScienceMad. If I had to guess, that's probably the name of the first account that got banned and the forum Mods have been nice and folded his accounts back together.
If you edit the original post, you should be given access to a drop down menu of subforums to which to move it.
This is a very clever scheme! I applaud. Your "refer a friend" button appears to be *not* working. I put in my friend's gmail address and I get "error, cannot connect to server". Edit: added *not*, good thing Kestral can understand me even when I leave out critical words!
I have the beta, and other impulse games, installed on both my laptop and my desktop right now.
1. No Download Limit. 2. If Stardock Still Exists, in all likelihood yes. 3. Yes, in fact, it's the only way to get patches, which Stardock pours love into.
In the expansion pack, Alpha Centarui: Alien Crossfire there were 2 alien factions alongside the usual human factions. If the aliens or humans took a base from the other, the base was reduced to 1 population, and the rest of the population took flight in colony pods. This represented the two species being so radically different that there was no possible way at coexistence within a single base. I would consider this the baseline, and then if we want to get creative with co
He's looking at the release schedule and seeing this: [QUOTE] Release: Elemental publicly available (WHEN IT'S READY) Single Player: Beta Tester Content (spells, quests, characters released based on player feedback). Multiplayer: Arena mode (remember Archon?). Multiplayer: The Kingdoms vs. The Empires. Single Player: Quest Pack (a thank you for buyers). Single Player: Monster Pack (a thank you for buyers). <p
[quote who="Orvidos" reply="7" id="2641500"]Funnily enough, unintrusive is a word, I just don't know how it's spelled. [/quote] Not much to add, other than the word that you're looking for is unobtrusive , somewhat counter-intuitive.
Interesting questions Raven, I know I'd be interested in the answer to at least the 2nd one. On a technical note, this reads horribly color-wise on the standard elemental forum. Just letting you know.
The ability to alter the terrain is a weapon. Even with alterations as minor as raise/lower land, as in Alpha Centauri, this is true. Teach the AI to fight using the map and it will be an awesome thing.

[quote who="Stmorpheus" reply="2" id="2640747"]well, like many games you would have a goal. each type of society would have an ultimate goal that once accomplished then you win. I like this idea, but it seems to me that by going the route of a single society type would overpower a person who is balancing. because if you balance then you wouldn't get these uber bonuses. [/quote] You also end up railroaded into a particular societal-build after a while, which
[quote who="Blaze of Glory" reply="64" id="2640204"] Quoting Zaisha, reply 61 Ehm, there's this thing called a "markup". Retailers make a profit by charging customers more for products than the retailers buy them for. I'm sure charging your supplier for buying their stuff is nice for the retailer, but you have to admit it's a little weird. (I doubt a dairy company has to pay a supermarket to sell their milk and butter, for instance.) But it's industry standard
[quote who="ddd888" reply="18" id="2639298"] quoting post The long, hard, scary time consuming feature is the AI. It’s the one feature that could delay the game beyond August 24th. If the game gets delayed, the alternative release is second week of February. sry but can i ask why? i mean its some kind of internal joke? otherwise how is it possible that cant be delayed just 2 months or 3 or 1? i mean if you now think its possible
[quote quoting="post"] I recently bought Master of Magic off gog. In the beginning the game runs very fast. Near the end turns become achingly slow. Has anyone else experienced this? Were you able to fix it? Does this happen in Master of Orion 2? -Othello [/quote] When you say slow - the game itself slows down as it plays AI turns (computing resources are strained), or there's just so much more stuff to do each turn that each
[quote quoting="post"] Supreme Commander 2 is $10.99 on Steams weekend deal. I've played and enjoyed Warhammer 40k DOW2, Demigod and Company of Hero's online. I'd pick up Starcraft 2 but it sounds the beta is almost closed and I would want my multiplayer fix today and next week in addition to when it comes out. I have no intention to play the campaign. Is Supreme Commander 2's multiplayer worth $10.99? And keep in mind I would never play SC1 online for the same rea
I'm trying to work on some visualizations of the elemental tech system (for discussion purposes) and would find it really handy to have access to the XML to read off the techs and their availability chances at each tier etc. rather than having to harvest it by hand (playing). Has anyone found them yet? I've looked through the game-folder (installation directory) and the usual suspect place (mygames/elemental), and don't see them. This leads me to suspect that they're maske
[quote]For the Civil one I don't like the idea of it being based on cities... Could you code it so that you retain the bonus unless *YOU* declare war. That would solve the problem of other players playin cheap and robbin you of your bonus, as long as you play strictly defensively.[/quote] This is almost certainly possible - in fact, I like it better than the off-hand I threw out.
