Haven't been able to repro yet, but QA is going to look into it further. Thanks for the info.
cbray
A fix for this should be in the next patch. Thanks!
Odd, do you also crash if you alt-tab? Are you playing full screen, or windowed?
Yep, this is a known issue. Should be fixed the next time we patch. Thanks for reporting it!
Thanks for the info! What would be most useful to us is if anyone has a save before the bug occurs, and an explanation of how to reproduce it from that save (or from scratch). We already have a handful of saves once it has already happened. Info on the # of ships is interesting. Thanks again!
Minor update for a stability issue.
Apologies for the slow reply. We are hard at work tracking this issue down. It's been a pain as we're unable to reproduce the issue internally. It is happening on a small subset of laptops, but so far we've been unable to find a common pattern in the hardware/software configs people have sent in. If anyone is getting this issue that hasn't followed the instructions at the top of this thread, please do! Thank you for your help and patience with this
We're still working to track this down. If anyone has been able to figure out steps to reproduce this consistantly, or has a save game that can be used to quickly reproduce this bug we'd be eternally grateful :)
Both have been addressed and will be included in future Beta updates. Thanks for your feedback! 1) Order is now; Flagship > Titan > Capital Ships > Frigates 2) We now show this information on the Relationship Screen InfoCard
To clarify, this issue is specifically a crash. The long hang some people get before the game starts is a separate issue which we can reproduce internally and don't need additional info on. Thanks!
Nightraid3r, Definitely follow the instructions in the thread Pbhead linked. Also, did you mean to say you upgraded your video card drivers, did you actually upgrade your video card hardware? If you upgraded your video card it'd be good to know what you had before as well (assuming it you got the same crash bug on both). Thanks for your help (and patience) with tracking this down!
We can't guarantee compatibility, but you may be able to work around this issue by doing the following: go to 'C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Ironclad Games\Sins of a Solar Empire\Save-SinglePlayer' change the file extension of any '.save' file to '.savereb' restart Rebellion You should see them in the list of saves, but no guarantees they will load properly </
Big thanks to everyone who is giving their feedback and helping us track down these issues!
There are a number options to increase the speed of gameplay. They've been around since the first SOSE, but in the Diplomacy expansion the top speed setting was increased (which will be included in Rebellion). Specific options are: Income Rate, Build Speed, Ship Movement Speed, Research Speed, Culture Speed, and Victory Speed. It makes a pretty big difference, but don't expect it to turn into an action game :) *also, you
Seleuceia, Thanks for the repro steps, that helped a lot! I was able to get the resizing when returning to main menu to reproduce. However, once I changed it back to fullscreen in the options it didn't continue to occur. Is this what you were seeing? Or did it always resize after doing those steps? Thanks again, we'll look into it!
To answer your question, the team color on the TEC loyalist Titan was tweaked a bit after we finalized the beta build, but before we took that screenshot. It will look similar to the top screenshot in future builds.
asadex, you don't have to rebuy all the original games. Rebellion comes with all the content from Trinitiy (original Sins + Entrenchment & Diplomacy expansions).
1) thanks, we've reproduced this and will get it fixed 2) having trouble reproducing this issue. In testing it goes back to fullscreen every time the game is launched unless windowed mode was set in the options. Can you reproduce this issue consistently? Or did it only happen once? Also, were any other settings changed after you used the keyboard shortcut to switch to windowed mod? Thanks for the info.
