<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: deMangler<br/> <br/> <br/> Especially if it is on steam. There are some really good passion projects by lone devs that are updated regularly that still get totally trashed on the discussions. It's a real shame. Much better to have a closed beta with an NDA.<br/> <b...

Thanks for the 256 bug update and keeping this alive!!

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: MaxRebo<br/> <br/> Registered just to inform you of this, as I can't believe no one noticed it before:<br/> Completely normal, already built ships and bases are being turned into troll ships randomly whenever certain processing is done by the game.

Good luck and enjoy!! Hope they didnt camp too close to your homeworld

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: ravincravin<br/> <br/> In my game, I was lucky that they offered me a Protection Agreement and left me alone.<br/> <br/> Once you get the popup saying the spies were successful, you have to look around the main map screen for a flag.

<t> Well this is a pointless map now, no matter what I do now I cant build anything, they just wiped out every single station and all my ships, they leave the planets alone but nothing else, worst part is your alliances do nothing to help since you havent declared war. So about 45 stations and over ...

<t> Holy crap, I am only on year 2260 as the Breen and Species 8472 just arrived and is STEAMROLLING every single one of my bases (thankfully not my colonies), my ships are no match AT ALL, 8472 is using about 20 ships at one time on me at each point................wow..............now I know how th...

I have not had any issues with it, it is a decent mod but it can be a bit overwhelming on the amount of resources at times.

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Unforeseen<br/> <br/> Are there any good mods that add a large amounts of tech?

Same here, this was like the Reddit hug of death for the update. Well I go to bed and it hopefully is up when I get up

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: Tikigit<br/> <br/> Wondering if it's time to give up on ever seeing this mod.<br/> <br/> Currently using the Starfall mod for the time being, but would be great to see a dedicated research tree overhaul mod actually get finished. <E>:(</E><br/> <br/> Any word on ot...

<r> WOO!! Keep up the great work guys, I was hoping for an earlier release, like what was hinted at in the original post but I do understand bugs crop up that just slam you and NEED to be squashed before release. In the end I think this will make the modders (and us) very happy to get this out so wo...

<t> Pirates dont land troops or fight a colony to take it over, all you have to have is a ship in orbit that builds (WITHOUT you telling it, it is automatic) a pirate base there, once it gets a high enough level you automatically take it over. If you do not want a colony do NOT park any military shi...

It has been roughly 3 1/2 weeks since the beta announcement for this patch, any updates on progress to an official release or are there still major bugs to be worked out?

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>ORIGINAL: synpax<br/> <br/> By the way, how do you know my vid drivers are out of date?

<t> I just reproduced your bug, the game was running a stable 1,400,000k in memory usage and then all of a sudden (after alt-tabbing out and back in) it jumped up to 3,367,708k (the limit for x86) and crashed with an out of memory exception. Will try again to see if I can reproduce it a second time ...

<t> I have a x64 multicore processor and have zero issues with the game so it is not a x64 issue but something else related to your setup. Also Distant Worlds is x86 and not x64 so you are still limited by the 3.2GB memory limit of the x86 architecture. First off I would say update your video driver...

Gotcha, will wait till 1.9.5.9 is out of Beta to retry then, had a nasty crash that I cant locate with the beta update so I reverted to *.5.8 where it is stable again.
