what? run a test on someone elses computer to check for their video capacity??? that would consume bandwidth to the extreme, and would be a pain in the ass in countless other ways. not to mention I dont see that getting by a firewall. no i mean that each person runs the performance test after they install and the result is then logged can can be brought up in the lobby either next to there name or via a hotkey l

this would be a good idea, heres one way you can add it in, i dont see it being much good in early gameplay, i always end up changing my fleet composition, but in the late game where i want alot of ships and im building alot of ships, it would make things easyer and cut down on the mass of icons. so we could include mass production of ship "squads" in the research tree, that way you dont get it untill its needed or not at all if you dont want it. a note on damaged/des
well its still nice to watch, if it were all about performance we would be watching triangles flying around shooting dots! as for say about what pc you have dont always work, you could have an ingame performance test where you get a number (they do this in supcom) which gives a good base to decide if you comp can run with moving turrets or not esthetics is all down to personal preferanc
If one person turns it off, it'll create sync issues within multiplayer games. I believe that's a valid reason. Plus. It serves no purpose other than esthetic. I'd rather have performance then implement the switch to turn it off in the game lobby then for multi games! so if everyone has a high end pc then they can turn it on, if not then off, have a seperate option for skirmish. i think it really deserves to be in there, cmon homew
id like to thanks and alot of people will find this very helpful! saves me having to play with it for research. so thanks again! Kenetor
as far as i can tell its all notepad stuff at the moment, you cant put new models in as we dont have an exporter, so were pretty much stuck at the mo lol. as soon as i get my grubby hands on the mod tools though you will all see some nifty stuff happenin Kenetor
I've seen numerous reports of this but we can't recreate it unfortunately. Please send a save game of it happening and we'll fix it asap really?! happens in nearly all my games so far, mainly when there retreating, they just keep runnin away from you. as soon as you stop chasin them they zoom off
moving turrets would be great! and add alot to anyone that makes gameplay videos, but in real gameplay terms, how much time does everyone spend zoomed in to a point where you can SEE the turrets? i know i hardly do. even so id still like to seem them implemented, and for those talking about the performance hit, there could be an option to turn it off!

i agree that battleships should be part of the tech tree but maybe just 1 or 2 of the more powerful ones, but free choice of your starting flagship. thing is the tech tree is pretty crowded at the moment, maybe drop some of those missile techs, theres loads of them, fewer but better i think, and we might have room. thats my 2c Kenetor
i like choosing the missile one since i love using 3 or 4 of them and blowing up everything with there uber missile strick thingy lol Kenetor
thanks for the offer and comments but ill have to decline, hardly anyone uses the forums anyway, and i think a forum is a form, there all the same, i could even host my own on my webspace but meh... lol myself and 1 other builds the models and we have a very very good texture artist Kenetor
hey there peeps, just been told by one of my mod team about this game, and ive been looking through vids and screenshots and it all looks very impressive. im currently running a BFG mod for supreme commander, here our moddb: http://mods.moddb.com/8835/gothic-commander/ if this game plays well and gets sufficient mod tools we may switch to this game, just a note that we havent updated recently due to family issues on my end and uni comming up for myself and a few others
