Reply to ID’s Great PC Build of 2015 in Personal Computing Stardock Forums

FYI - just did a quick benchmark and checked the actual power draw; it never broke 320W with the GPU at 99%. That's actual full system draw at the outlet with an i7, factory overclocked GTX970, and monitors included (it's from the real-time display on the UPS). At idle it's under 120W. I have an 850W supply, since I when I first built this machine I had the GTX480 which was far more demanding (it could draw 300W on its own ). The wattage figures that the GP

[quote]So, what are my risks if I use these mods?[/quote] The risks of using mods on the beta: - You incorrectly report problems caused by mods as bugs with the game, taking dev time to investigate non-issues. - You fail to report game issues fixed or mitigated by mods, and as a result they don't get noticed and fixed in the base game.

Reply to where to buy Sins of a Solar Empire Trinity? dont want DRM! in Sins of a Solar Empire Stardock Forums

Trinity requires registering the game to your Stardock account (same one you just made for the forum) on first run regardless of where you buy it online, but that's it. There is no third party resident app or online requirement. So if you buy it via Steam or get a Steam key, Steam is only used to download it.

As Lucky Jack noted, the game requires 64-bit windows to run; there is no 32-bit version. And I would strongly recommend using a legitimate version of Windows if you do upgrade.

Reply to Can I still update GalCiv II? in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

You shouldn't need to unzip it again--just make sure you run the copy you unzipped (go to where you unzipped it--any shortcuts you had to run the game will still point at the old copy unless you update those yourself). You can move those files and delete the old ones as you like once you've figured it all out.

[quote]Just to be sure I understand. The download was am entire GalCiv II game with the updates, not just the updates?[/quote] That is correct. We don't provide patch files, just the whole latest version of the game. That is why it was 1.18GB.

Reply to Can I still update GalCiv II? in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

You don't update anything. The whole final version of the game is in the package from the store downloads page. I suspect the prompt you got when doing it again was just due to extracting it in the same location as you did the first time. You can just run the copy you extracted in the location you extracted it, and toss your old copy.

Reply to Can I still update GalCiv II? in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

The store page has the full game, not patch files. It should have just unpacked a GalCiv2 folder with the whole game in the same location as you downloaded the package at, unless you specified a different place.

It sounds like you were working with GameStop support--you don't need to bother with GameStop at all. They might have given you a Steam key since that is all they sell now, but that's just a guess. They dropped support for the client app entirely a while back now and didn't support third party key registrations for a couple of years before that. At any rate, you can download the game straight from us off the Stardock store website. All you should need to do is locate your
