History of the Condom I've always been a student of history but I didn't know this. In 1272, the Arabic Muslims invented the condom, using a goat's lower intestine. In 1873, the British refined the idea by taking the intestine out of the goat first. Don't thank me, I do this as a public service for the advancement of education. I did not run this through Snopes, but I got it from a friend tha
[quote who="SivCorp" reply="8110" id="3315238"]And this is why I decided not to mod this game... not friendly at all.[/quote] It is mod friendly, but only to the amateur who is only changing a few things. For the better then amateur who likes to do a lot, the friendliness design is crippling.
Remove them from the GalScenarioDef file, remove them from the player files, remove them from the entity list... Adjust the counts accordingly. Each will do the job, doing all will do the job better as it won't cause other errors to creep up.
Heh, basically, you got my sometimes barely working port over from diplomacy plus changes to make it work more often then not, and the new ships added in. There are no balancing changes done to it, some of the new tech is missing, and pretty much everyone is busy working, having lives, and raising families. I'm only doing one of the three, but working as many hours as I do would prevent me from doing very much even if I didn't have a huge dislike of Steam. So to an
[quote who="ARESIV" reply="8097" id="3313322"]According to Stardock 90 % of all sales were on Steam[/quote] That's because it's a steamworks game so no matter where you buy it you have to get it from steam and for a time you could only buy it from steam or here, and boxes were not sold in retail stores, thus the numbers are not only skewed in favor of that, but most people would just say screw it if I have to have that installed I may as well get it from there instead of here.
Bah, useless commentary... (DS) -= Finley System, Conference Day 3 =- Roesh walks up to the podium in meeting hall J. He presses a button which dims the lights a little bit alerting the crowd that he's ready to begin. "Thank you for coming today everyone." he begins. "This lecture on Piracy and Protections is also being holocast in meeting hall K, those of you there, at the conclusion, feel
The only time I've ever been bit by a dog, I was talking to a friend outside his place and this couple was walking theirs down the street. Of course it starts barking at us and I'm like, what ever... So the guy picks it up and as they're walking right by me it jumps a little bit out of his arms and gets a little nibble in on mine. The guy just pulled the dog back and kept on walking. No sorry, no concern for my arm, nothing. Me and my buddy just looke

Just stepping in to say hi and bye. Can you believe a few weeks ago I worked 108 hours in a week, and 98 the week before that, and 92 the week before that...

All you need to do is copy over the galaxy scenario definitions file from DS into the forge folder to be able to create DS maps. Everything else included are icons to allow forge to display something other then a blank planet icon to give you a visual reference of what's there. Edit: Thanks Bison. Right back at ya bud.
They can't be built on the planet, we only have orbital real estate to work with in Sins... However, try having a starbase or two out there to protect it. Most AI fleets get wiped out fairly quickly and without any intervention on your part. Add in some mines at the entry points to the gravity well to soften up the opposition before they even get there and you really don't have to look at an AI fleet.
Fucking bullshit logged me out when I posted my reply... Anyway, long story short: Boshimi: DS Wiki http://sinsdistantstars.wikia.com/wiki/SoaSE_Distant_Stars_Wiki there's your list of bonuses. Anyone care to contribute to it and make it better, be my guest. Goa, there's no such thing as other mods. ;P Also I was waiting for AxelDude to finish his artwork so I co
[quote who="Sinperium" reply="83" id="3282040"]I am extremely appreciative of their complete openness in letting people post things that might not be directly in their own interest.[/quote] But in this case it does directly benefit them as they are a computer games maker and this only solidifies the assertion that there is more then enough of a community to continue operating a business in this market.

Sicarii, Questions: 1. What is the checksum that you see when you enable the mod, does it match the one listed? 2. When you enable the mod, do you also press the apply button? 3. Does the game 'freeze' momentarily while the mod is being loaded? Your Answers: 1. No, it's zero. 2. Oh, oops. 3. No. Solutions: 1. You have your mod buried one folder too deep, this happens because of how uncompression programs work thes

Things introduced/changed by Rebellion that weren't game breaking are not in it and won't be until the Beta is ready. Current ETA of Beta: See Dawn of Victory thread. ;P
Pfffft... My excuse is that I've been working 60 to 100 hours a week, and my carpal tunnel prevents me from typing any more then this at any one sitting... I may need to get that surgery soon. =\
