I wish it wasn't so laggy or jerky when zooming in and out , it should be smooth


Yeah, I have to complain about that too. It might seem like a small complaint, but I spend quite a bit of time zooming in and out in these kinds of games, so it gets very annoying.

Played the game for a little bit, having the AI do more or less everything for me right now. Will play more when I have time, liking it so far.

I'm not from the US nor do I have US locale and it launches fine for me.


Unpatched version required region format to be set to one with a dot as comma separator.

Right, so I thought the 1.02 patch would become openly available once it became official. :/

According to the Matrix forums, it went official, and it's not openly available. It's in that Members Club area thing, which I presume can only be accessed through legit serials.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Terrific.

EDIT: Very briefly tried it, and it looks good, but it does need performance optimization. Scrolling, zooming and even window loading mustn't be that sluggish.

The game itself is pretty good.... but it gets a bit overwhelming after you colonize more then 20 planets Wink

Btw if anyone knows how to get your fleet on auto attack please let me know.... Finding myself sending my fleet of to attack an enemy colony but they don't fuell all before they go and when they go they only attack one ship and after that's down they stay like ducks in enemy space. Costed me allready over 50 Ships Sad

ATM it's not possible, ships only refuel them self if automated, but automated ships in a fleet leave fleet upon refueling Sad

Same with auto-attacking, only automated ships seek new targets. With un-automated fleet you have to babysit it Sad

But devs are cooking something for the next patch Smile

Skidrow release not working here on Windows 7 64-bit.

I installed as normal with the 1.02 update and crack from Skidrow. I also tried changing the locale to united states, running as administrator and the usual compatability fixes. The game crashes instantly when starting with just the message "stopped working".

Make sure you copied all the files over. Well, except for skidrow.exe as that's not needed.

I've installed the game, then the 1.02 patch and then the crack. Nothing more.

The only problem I have is the tiny font, I can't even read the planet names. Sad

Just put your desktop resolution to whatever resolution you would like ingame before starting the game.
