[quote who="Wrath89" reply="11" id="3038561"] Also, if you don't even attempt to use sentences I'm not going to read your posts.[/quote] Thanks, Wrath. Reading that was beginning to hurt my head. Assume he didn't bother to see where your link led.

Ok, seems like there's quite a few people with these problems. I'm not a real techie so can't see any common thread with what's going wrong, but a few other people have posted solutions to potential problems. For starters, Darstaed came up with the fix that let me play Entrenchment and Diplomacy: https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/419008 His post is about halfway down the page. Commardenoah, if I can follow it, it has to be pretty basi

[quote who="rossp" reply="34" id="3118525"] Any chance you could tell me how you did that? I tried going into the NVidia control panel but the only thing i could change was 3d options, and i updated my drivers and everything. My only option to fix my problem was to just disable the NVidia card, probably not the greatest choice but the only one i could take.[/quote] Go to 3D Settings on the left hand pane, then in the right (where it says Manage 3D Settings) hit the

[quote who="boshimi336" reply="30" id="3117920"]Just for clarification, you are now able to run it at 1920x1080 resolution on your laptop by following this procedure?[/quote] Sorry Boshimi, yes Reb runs at full HD on my laptop, have edited post to reflect this. Actually thought it was running at a lower resolution like I have to run the Trinity games but it defaulted to 1920x1080.

Ok, had this problem occur today after I'd updated Sins Reb. Previously had the same with Entr and Diplo when attempting to play on 1920x1080 resolution, which Sins (up to Diplomacy) still won't(Reb runs in full HD fine). Only run it on laptop screen, no monitor. Updated graphics drivers, no joy, changed settings file to run at 800x600, no joy. Set to run from window, no joy. Delete local content, no joy. Set GPU to run game in NVidia control panel 'preferred graph

Sorry if this is a necro, but this still hasn't been addressed. While I don't get as mad as some ( https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/412046 ) the Empire Tree can be very, very annoying. Hate to think ow many times I've lost a closely contested fight and subsequently a fleet/grav well because the damn thing jumps up or down, sending my huge fleet of bombers away from an enemy cap ship/titan/star base into the spac

Thanks for this Bignick, covers a couple of points I was about to post: The Novaliths get broken out really early and against a TEC Loyalist (fortifier I think) seemed like they were spammed against me. This is especially bad with the more difficult AI settings (worth mentioning I'm not a hard-core ICO player; learning a bit before I go get bummed on the servrs!). Totally agree with the comment about Hoshino cruisers seem to have bizarre prioritisation when

I have a noticeable pause at a blank/black screen at startup on an i7 with 16Gb RAM - my mates with slower PCs say the screen can stay for a few minutes at a time. Are most people going to wait that long or just assume it's hanging?

Ok, had a scout around. For those (like me) not so techie, here's a POSSIBLE solution. Thanks to Darstaed, find his reply halfway down... https://forums.sinsofasolarempire.com/419008

Ok, I have an NVidia GT 555 and the above DID work for me. Rebellion runs fine at 1600x900 full screen. Thanks very much for the post Darstaed, not sure why SD haven't put this up as a potential solution.

Same here, exact replication of bug. Also, it happened to me with early versions of Entr and Diplo, only solution was to lower the resolution. Can't work out how to do that when booting from Steam.

13 Replies 12,947 Views

Yep, same here. Followed all the usual drivers/compatability stuff but to no avail. Sins Entr/Diplo did the same until I dialled down the resolution, but I bought those on Impulse, and Reb on Steam, so no way the settings can be changed in an old version and then Reb will follow. Annoying.

[quote who="throwawaythrowaway" reply="3" id="3047259"] you're necroing an extremely old thread with a post with no content. don't do that please[/quote] Why not? I've just checked the forums looking for exactly this kind of thread. It's always difficult picking up a game after everyone else has been playing for years, and the only way you're going to keep your numbers up on the servers is to have new people start up. &n

PM me if you want - I've only played the original and am nowhere near good enough to get involved in proper games (yet), plus have no people here who play *sniff*. I'm in Europe so could only do GMT daytime but the joy of a knackered economy means I can play weekdays. Am getting in touch with a few others off here, maye we could get a few of us together?
