<t> I didn't read through all of the comments here, but are smuggling missions still a thing? That felt like it was more of a band-aid in DW1 to address resource shortages early on, but it was kind of nice to have a positive side to the pirates. I have not noticed any mention of it for DW2.<br ...

Pretty sure I have the exact same unusual specs as Eric's machine based on his comments during the live stream. <E>:(</E><br/>

I hope no one actually gets upset if they don't make the beta, more can certainly be less if there is an ...

Hope I get an unpaid second job here at Matrix

No change for me except that the older file does not trigger my antivirus.

Roger, is it possible to have a build with debug info that dumps to the screen when an exception happens?

I was going to ask the same until I realized what you were asking... read back several pages and noticed that my issue is consistent with everyone else. I really hope that my time with ...

Windows is freaking out on the executable in the latest version thinking it's a virus... is this a false positive? https://imgur.com/a/TFb2L4b

I installed the ndp48-web.exe update and just confirmed that I'm still getting the crash to desktop.

Wonderful work Roger, but I'm still experiencing crashes. The game just exists, I don't get any other messages. I was not having any issues before the initial upgrade. I'm going to try a vanilla Bacon Mod game and see how it works.

Can you clarify if the artist/modeller would be building assets for a game engine (with poly count & lod optimizations) or just generating pre-rendered sprites?

Check the design for the troop transport, look for the Invasion setting, and make sure that this is set to something that isn't "never invade." That's the only thing I know of, aside from not having troops on the transports, that could cause a ...

<t> Thanks so much for the responses. I think there's a difference between and attack order vs an invade order. Doesn't the attack order have the cross-hair cursor and invade have the arrow cursor?<br/>

When I select my troop transports and right click on the planet nothing happens except ...

<t> I have a bit of an issue where I can't take over any planets outside of my sector. I think I may have set the game to have 1-1.5 sector colonization range.<br/>
<br/>
If there's no way to colonize planets because they are out of range, can I just attack them? I am trying to take a planet that ...

<t> Just wanted to chime in and say I have WitW working on my mbpro. I used the playonmac (search google) installer.<br/>
<br/>
I did have to do the following:<br/>
- use the "install non-listed program" feature<br/>
- installed with the standard downloader (war in the east may work from steam ...

Reminds me of Pirates of the Burning Sea, I had to do a bit of research to make sure it wasn't from those guys.

Twotribes, That's been me with AGEOD games. I have 5 of them, but I've only played them superficiality. I just haven't quite figured out the angle to get deep into the tactics, but I know when I do get there it'll be a blast.

<t> My favorite is definitely Distant Words: Universe. I've put in about 500 hours and the game is still one of my favs. I recently purchased Command: Modern Air/Naval Operations and picked up War in the West today. Since I'm not terribly familiar with the detailed military history and lingo of ...

Thanks for the sale, picked up War in West. Now I get to spend the rest of the year learning how to play the game

<t> Early Access is commonly used for one of these purposes:<br/>
<br/>
- fund early development of a game<br/>
- seek community involvement/feedback<br/>
- gauge community interest<br/>
- get beta testing resources for free<br/>
<br/>
Of course there can be a combination of these strategies ...

Thanks, that's very good news.
