[quote who="IskatuMesk" reply="8197" id="3343681"]You should never accept this of being the fault of the mod.[/quote] But it is the fault of the mod because there are things that cause the game to crash that are very difficult to track down.

At one point in the DS timeline, I believe it was d

Don't bring it up, it was fought over back in 2008, it was fought over back in 2009, it was fought over back in 2010, it was fought over back in 2011... Do a forum search next time, you'll find plenty of messages about it. Edit: To address your points specifically since, well, since I'm me and this bugs the shit out of me...

Angelinos is the proper term for referring to or about people from Los Angeles. Sunniest sure, except for when it isn't, like from about now until late August. That can be said for much of coastal southern California, but the place to go for the most pleasant weather year round is actually San Diego, our little cousin to the south, or further inland like Pasadena. Still only minutes from LA, but you're away from the coastline and it's influences. We hav

Oh, we Angelinos had the wind before Ryat and his Phoenixites(?). Still windy here... And 80F. Nothing like a hot April wind storm to remind you that there's no such thing as winter. ;P

Game info folder, search for the files that are named something like player(faction).entity I don't have rebellion so I can't be specific about the names, but I assume it's going to still be phase psi and tech with something to differentiate between the two sub factions. Once inside the files, there will be a section for research. Reduce the count by one and delete the line that has the words planetmoduleaccess_cannon. There's going to be words before a

Changing the number of allowable in the gravity well does NOT mean that the research goes away as well. As I said before, there is a faction, TEC Loyalists if I'm not mistaken, that has a research that allows them to +1 Novaliths in a gravity well, so even by zeroing it out, you're basically fucking over everyone who plays against that faction. Also as I've said before, a better way to do it would be to go into the player faction files and remove the research note for

Well, a quad core with 20 gigs of ram, 3 terabytes of hard drive, and two of the best graphics card out there hooked up in a SLI configuration would indeed be the superior system, however this is sins and as we all know in sins, older is better. A single core with massive processing power is better then a quad core with less speed. 4 gigs, 20, 100 gigs of ram means nothing because sins uses up to 2 and crashes. A couple of years ago it was discovered that playing sins on a S

Do they have better systems then you? Are they using lower graphics settings? Do they have less stuff running in the background? Are they using a different OS? Basically I'm wondering if your system is bogged down while theirs aren't. Also something to consider, my PC hard drive has a RAID monitor running which can sometimes slow things down a bit, also has backup software that constantly runs which not only slows drive speed, but also chews up a little b

No, probably not. You'd have little or no desync issues avoiding ICO, but crashing is based on the files and game engine. So is the late game lag. Too bad Steam doesn't let you sit on a certain version of the game. I'm told Rebellion 1.04 was much more stable then 1.1, and DS Rebellion 0.11 was built around that release so there aren't any issues aside from the usual stuff.

I like the music, but I turn it off too, however if you'd like to get more out of it, get into your mods folder, DS mod, gameinfo folder and look for the player entity file for the faction you use. For example, in diplomacy if I were to go looking for the TEC player's file, I'd look for the file that says PlayerTech.entity Once you have your player file open, look for the music theme data section (red highlighted below), it'll look something like this: <spa

No, so get to writing. ;P (DS Lore) Todd and Casey rush into the room where Henry and Roesh are waiting. Todd immediately stops as soon as he enters causing Casey to run into the back of him. "What the hell?!" she says as she shoves Todd forward. Not even noticing that he got pushed, Todd hurries over to the damaged anti gravity generator in front of all of them. "WO
