System Hang Problem |
Anybody ever have a problem with SE5 hanging at the “processing after all player turns” part of the game. I am running ver 1.66 using balance mod v1.12. It happened well into the game, initially I thought the PC couldn’t handle the game – 3.0Gb Intel CPU, 2Gb DDR400 Ram, Invidia GForce FX550 AGP vid card running Vista Ultimate. But I tried new game – standard SE5 and it did the same thing at the end of the first turn, using a small galaxy and only 3 AI players + myself. Sounds like the SE5 app is screwed to me. But before I reinstall, I thought I’d check it out with you guys. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Cheers

Thanks Unnamed. It's good to know the cause even if you can't fix it. Have re-installed the game and it's going OK now. Bit of a shame though, I was right into a game in balance mod and the 4 AI empires were really making me work for it. I initially thought the AI was ho-hum, but with this game they were learning. I use plasma/beam weapons and intially I was nailing anything I came up against, but then the AIs started using Plasma and beam as well. Cheers

The BM AI is definitely better. 
Re: System Hang Problem
It is known that SE5 has a turn ending bug, and the recent patch logs show that it should be fixed for the next released version (sometime next week is the estimate). Hopefully this next patch will see the end of end fo turn hanging.
