I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't, and die to find out there is.

Reply to Science and God (One and the same?) in Everything Else Sins Forums

Boy I wish I saw this sooner. I’m a very strong believer in God and I’ve study the Bible for many years. Most of the replies I’ve read here seem to indicate most of you don’t think there is a God who created everything. If everything was j

Reply to So.... Spore, DRM, and Amazon.com in Everything Else Sins Forums

I was going to buy Mass Effect, which looked to be really good until I found it had DRM with it. You could only activate it only 3 times too. Year or two ago I bought Supreme Commander and Command and Conquer, Tiberium Wars and they are great games. They didn’t come with DRM. I guess DRM is fairly new.

Reply to Pirate Problems - Too many comming at me. in Strategy Sins Forums

The few times I played against Pirates I learned a trick or two. First I noticed they don’t go after more than one Planet at a time when they attack. They will change to a different Planet on the next attack sometimes. Anyway what I end up doing is I would build my fleet enough so while they are away attacking one of the planets I would attack their Home planet thus stopping thei

Reply to Sins of a Solar Empire v1.1 BETA 2 Change Log in Beta Feedback Sins Forums

Note 2: Back up your achievements file until the next beta, we needed to make some changes to the versionning control for improved ICO behavior and we missed the achievements version handler. Ok, I give up. I can't find where the achievements are stored at on my computer. Can any tell where to look in Vista for them....please!

Reply to Campaign trouble with Twilight of Arnor in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

I just finished this campaign. The only way to win this one is to make 3 Constructors and 2 Transporters. Buy each one per turn. Forget about everything else in the game. Just make these ships. Use the Constructors to increase your Influence next to your borders so you can take you ships to that Planet you need to conquer and win the game.

Have you tried going into the control panel and clicking onto the Windows Update icon? Vista will sometimes will have the latest Video Drivers for downloading. One of the plusses with Vista.

oops I should have read all the messages. I see you know where the device manager is. Forget what I said then.

Reply to Out of ideas in Technical Sins Forums

This is how you can get the latest device drivers for the hardware on your computer . First click on the Start button, then click on Computer, then click on device Manager, then click on Display Adapter. That should show you your Video Card. From there you can download the latest driver….hopefully. Let me know if that helps.

Reply to New idea for Expansion Pack in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Thanks for all of your inputs. This is my very first post anywhere. But I'll have to look at OGG format to see how to do it. Not really sure how yet but I'm just glad other people out there think it's not a bad idea. It's already a very good game but I think adding music would put it over the top.

New idea for Expansion Pack in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Could it be possible to add our own music to Sins? I've played a lot of different games but none of them had a option that let you put your favorite music in. Wouldn’t it be awesome to listen to Pink Floyd in a space game? One of things in a game is that their music can drive you crazy after hearing it a million billion times.

Reply to Let us know what you'd like in v1.03 in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

Here are a few suggestions for 1.03v. 1) A cloaking scout ship. Or maybe a cloaking spy ship would be even better. 2) A new command to have ships go after enemy ships no matter where they go. 3) A new tech that can manufacture crystals and metal synthetically

Reply to Gameplay mechanic Issue in Sins of a Solar Empire Sins Forums

I don’t usually say anything but this time I will. The people who put this program together really put their heart into it so I really feel you should take it easy on your criticism, please. Maybe you’re a hot shot gamer, will then fine maybe you are. But I can see all the detail and work that was put into it. Something this complicated and grand in scale should be given honors. They will get it right so take it easy. Remember what the Bible says “You while be judged with the same measu
