the performance change brings a tear to my eye

I'm confused. When store suggested me to bring original game, Shakturi and Legends I had only seen DW original and 2 Shakturi. Please, fix it.

Can I change in a game from Legends to Shadows?

^Looks to be just a wrong graphic. If you select both Shakturi items, in your cart, you should see 1 Shakturi and 1 Legend...

We'll get that fixed, the bundle pages are the last part to be setup, reviewing those now.

Downloading. Looking forward to this.

Thanks for making this wonderful game available with the discount!

Appreciate the Shadows discount ! Now registered owner.

Can someone help with: Can I change in a game from Legends to Shadows?
(need to know if I can install)

Meaning a saved game? No, Shadows only works with new games started under Shadows.

Any news on when a modding guide will be out for Shadows? I couldn't find anything regarding one so I figured I'd ask.

Yes, Elliot is working on an updated modding guide. Should be available in the next week.

Thanks! I'm looking forward to it.

I am very happy with the possibility to enlarge the selected item box. [8D]

Am I not supposed to be able to select Return of the Shakturi story events if I'm playing as a pirate?

Are the story events something I want enabled as a pirate faction?

Playing as a Pirate does exclude the ROTS story, but not the base Distant Worlds story. ROTS represents an alternate timeline in this case, which is the one you as a Pirate are trying to avoid. Neither the Ancient Guardians nor the Shakturi much like pirates, so it would not end well.

If you play as a pre-hyperspace Empire, however, you can start in the Age of Shadows and work your way through all the storylines. Only the Pirates cannot continue all the way through the Shakturi storyline, but they can do the others.

Thank you very much! After I get some sleep I'm starting up a new game.

Keep those expansions coming and multiplayer too (please even if you do it last don't care do want).

Installing now. Then busy for some time.

I just bought the game and it runs well. My only problem is the text resolution. I have read the other forum posts about it and I wanted to know if a fix was coming or if there is a mod to make them larger. I play on a large TV and even at the lowest resolution it makes it easier to read but makes the game look worse.

Thanks for the heads up!
