The pictures in my game are getting scrambled. The effect is not consistent, sometimes there is no problem. Often the ships at the bottom of the screen get scrambled, ie a ship looks like a satellite.

My game is at version 1.63 and I'm playing noname's mod.

Any Ideas?

Hi.

Can anyone tell me the race name for a SE IV race that in population picture was brown/grey alien, with totally black eyes, and a small thing above eye that looked like some sort of cybernetic addition, or maybe some sort of HUD device?

Their ships were wide and flat for smaller vessels, while larger ones had three sort of angled wings, one to the each side and slightly up, third straight down.

Does anyone know the race I am talking about? I was trying to look for race pics of SE IV, to see it (I don't own the game). I'd like to know if there is a shipset for these aliens in SE V, as I always liked their ships looks in IV.

Though primarily for testing purposes, the PBW game Dark Nova 5 using the DN5 mod is gear up to start!

There are several spaces still left open for anyone interested in trying this mod out. The current version available is 5.03 (on PBW, SE.net and on this site) but the game will start with 5.04 once I get the last few bugs that have been identified dealt with.

Hello, I really have always enjoyed empire building games like this, Imperium Galactica, and others.... I have never had the problem that I have with this game... Every time I start an Empire.. I put it on the difficult setting. This does not seem to matter as every single other AI empire in my Galaxy stays stuck with very limited ships.. and they stay with the same level one technologies like the cannon and armor level one and such. Also.. there seems to be no thinking to their ship designs... They just slap everything on the top layer of every ship and leave the middle and low level empty. Furthermore, They do not build anything past the Destroyer class or the Level one Space Base. I have been playing my current galaxy all week.. I have technologies like Gamma Torpedoes... and Level 15 Meson Blasters.. shields... and Fighters... Every Computer played empire I meet and have known stay at the Cannon... and level 1 things.. .ARe they even researching? It is frustrating because I felt good by fordging a great empire only to realize that it is because the computer is too lazy to build better ships..

Alright so It's version 1.66 and BM 1.13, I've got a ton of forces on a 'smaller than usual warp point' (not one with wierd gravitational fluxes though. And the enemy is able to send through a fleet, glass my planets, and then when I take my mobile forces to go attack them nothing happens. And I'm at war with them!? Anybody else ever get this?
