Make sure you have ship mesh highlight filter off. Also turn off skyboxes as they add more reflection on the ships. Edit - It seems the highlight filter only applies if shadows are off... Maybe you can look at fx files for shadows.
PvP or AI?

[quote who="Major Stress" reply="4138" id="3378122"] It still doesn't address "why" we get the first run crash issues in Entrenchment, Diplomacy, and Rebellion. Even if there are no dev.exe errors. Is it a problem with our mods? or is it a problem with the game itself? I am trying to go through every file to see if there is anything on our end that could cause this.[/quote] I did not have this problem with Diplomacy for the longest time. I've modded something with Rebell

Well, steam at least makes smurfing a lot harder. It is impossible to reset your games played count short of an exploit or buying another license of the game.

[quote who="JinglyGoo" reply="27" id="3377469"] I 100% agree with Sinkiller here and have noticed that as well. The problem only affects LFs not disps. And disciples do appear to shoot sideways and LFs(small ragnarovs) dont which is what causes them to do that turnng thing ilustrated in the screenshots. [/quote] Are you trolling this thread?

[quote who="Sinkillr" reply="11" id="3377176"] Quoting ZombiesRus5, reply 9 WTF? Sounds like sins- but not the same one I'm playing. I frankly am confuddled by Seleucia and Zombie's comments... I thought this problem was common knowledge among players... It almost seems like we are playing a different game. Maybe singleplayer and multiplayer are different? And I have personally never seen cobalts OVERSHOOT their targets...
are you sure a dropped player is insane- my understanding is the hard ai is used which has a 2.25 income cheat.
[quote who="Seleuceia" reply="6" id="3376961"] LRFs also don't move as fast so they are less likely to "overshoot" targets they are chasing... It's not like I've gone out and proved this, but I just don't feel there is any difference between cobalts and disciples/skirmishers when it comes to this problem...if someone is up for testing it and decisively proving it one way or another, I'd be up for seeing those results... My experiences tell me th
[quote who="JinglyGoo" reply="8" id="3377111"] Is it because disciples can shoot sideways so you can attack move them in parallel to the target you are chasing? Cant quite do that with LFs as they suffer from Ragnarov shoot from the tip disadvantage. All LRMs are the same as far as i know. [/quote] WTF? Sounds like sins- but not the same one I'm playing.
[quote who="Seleuceia" reply="3" id="3376946"] I personally haven't found a difference between cobalts and other ships that do this (other LFs and HCs)...[/quote] ^ Long range frigates too
I find all frigates do this even disciples and yes it's irritating
You can spawn more capital ships via abilities but good luck getting the AI to use them effectively. There is a new modifier though that allows for checking if there is available capital slots. Look at the Vasari loyalist phase gate.
[quote who="Seleuceia" reply="13" id="3376368"] I've noticed a lot of those...and they blame me, me, for stacking my record with "mod games"...[/quote] It also seems the price to smurf isn't real high for some people. Lots of accounts with 0 wins that play like Koreans.
