I got a 2.1gb download from the HTTP site too. Using the chrome download manager which should be sufficient. Oh, and it's slow. Not that that's the biggest issue but still.

I still can't run the game so maybe if you could fix that.

Won't load for me. Trying to be patient but I'm currently pretty disappointed that I can't even play it.

To the top.

I really wanted to be able to tell all my friends how awesome this game was when it came out but that's just not happening.

Same problem with 1.05. My face is starting to get sad.

[quote who="kryo" reply="7" id="2728078"]Another user today mentioned getting past it by running the game as an admin, if you're on a limited user account that's worth a shot.[/quote]I believe they were referring to right clicking the executable and choosing "Run as Administrator" which is different than running the game as a user that's an administrator.

[quote who="Coplann" reply="15" id="2727692"]run the game as administrator, had the same problem and that fixed it for me (temporarily I hope )[/quote]Nope, running Elemental.exe with elevation didn't help.

Uninstalled and reinstalled the game via Impulse, updated drivers to the latest available from Nvidia and the issue is still occurring. It's a little disconcerting that an uninstall and reinstall did not correct the issue considering that it ran flawlessly the first time I ran it.

https://forums.elementalgame.com/391323 Sounds similar.

It's when the game is run. Tried to deleting that folder, no cookie. Older drivers were due to a compatibility issue with another game, they also didn't seem to be a problem through most of the beta. I will update them later though.

Bump.

I don't want to change an existing design. I want to give some guys that are out in the field better equipment.

The screen did not go white. Somehow one unit got stuck selected or something and I couldn't get any commands to register. It's also pretty odd that hitting escape doesn't bring up a menu if you're in a tactical battle (albeit that's a design issue and not a bug as far as I can tell). The bigger issue is that I get nothing but a black screen on starting the game now though. It started fine the first time but now it doesn't.

After a unit is created is there any way to upgrade their equipment? For example I had some peasants that got to level 3. I wanted to give them better equipment at that point but don't see how.

Debug.err http://pastebin.com/6vQK4uVM dxdiag http://pastebin.com/8vPQx8DA I was playing the campaign and got to a tactical battle where the UI bugged out and wouldn't accept any commands causing me to randomly click around trying to get SOMETHING to happen. Eventually I clicked autoresolve and it went very poorly so I tried to reload. The saves looked like they were from beta but I decided to give them the

Because it's irc.stardock.com not stardoc.

Thanks for enabling moderation. The spam was excessive.

Your IRC server doesn't seem to be taking this well.

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="4" id="2619207"]I don't think Valve did anything but make a good business case. As an evil (dangerously evil) greedy capitalist, I am a huge Valve fanboy. Don't think of Impulse as "good" and Steam as "evil". Think of them as both "good" or both as "evil". Or maybe one less evil than the other but still. Most people don't know this but Stardock makes millions a year from our technology being preloaded on various pieces of hardware and so

Is there any reason why I wouldn't want to spam cities everywhere and pack them as close together as possible? I always did that in Civ and the only thing that stopped me (and others) from packing the cities right next to each other was because you needed to harvest the land around the city. Late game, what's to stop me from just having my territory absolutely covered in buildings from cities?

Whacky Wild Stuff. I love getting a glimpse into the sausage factory.

[quote who="Henrikwj" reply="22" id="2570329"]What's wrong with Copper, Silver, Gold, Platinium etc? Most people who plays RPGs can relate to those. While most of the fanboys here will claim it's not original, I'd like to point out that, giving it some bizarre name gives the game no extra value at all. Players dont care, so most companies stick with what people are familiar with. I think you should too. [/quote]I'd prefer something simple li
