[quote quoting="post"]So, I don't have a 64 bit machine, and I don't feel like getting one anytime soon. Which contains me to 32 bit Elemenal. And because of that I feel uneasy - is it worse, dubbed down version? Is the game primarily developed to work with 64 bit machines? What are the real differences between versions? [/quote] 1) It's usually the other way around: the 64bit version of games are often poorly supported, rarely work rig
[quote who="endofdayz" reply="14" id="2659791"] The backstory for Elemental is something I've spent the better part of two decades creating. Random House has certainly been helpful in fleshing it out. But to accuse me of selling out or whatever is pretty insulting and frankly unwelcome. If you don't like it, you're free to ignore it. But it has nothing to do with "making a few bucks on the side". So much as it wasn't meant as a personal atta
I remember when we were being offered a dollar for every computer we could install the Google Toolbar on. I understand malware writers stopped trying to install "normal" malware and started installing Goole Toolbar instead - it just paid more.

You can build gardens without the technology that gives you gardens, which has to be researched separately. Meaning the tech is useless and ought to be removed, or made useful by not allowing gardens as a starting building. Gardens give 2 food. Researching the tech makes gardens give 3 food. So its not useless [/
[quote who="kryo" reply="56" id="2656599"]Just to add here guys, it's not necessary to re-report any in-game bugs from B2- that still exist in this build unless they're marked as fixed in the changelog, are crash bugs, or if you've got new info/repro. So please consult the roundup before posting. [/quote] Don't know if you caught this. You can build gardens without the technology that gives you gardens, which has to be researched separately.

[quote who="Tridus" reply="67" id="2656912"] Because people on the forums didn't like that you got 10 points but everything went up in 0.1 increments. Really, not a whole lot changed. You used to be able to raise Strength by 1, now you can raise Strength by 1. What you could do before is raise Strength and Intelligence by 0.5 each level, and now you can't. But if you go 1 then 1, you wind up with the same thing in the end. [/quote] That argument works
[quote who="Raven X" reply="6" id="2652341"] Quoting kyogre12, reply 5 We can open HKB's? I didn't know that. IIRC, Scoutdog tried to open those a while ago, but was unable to, and later one of the devs said they need to give us a tool that lets us convert our models to HKB and vice versa. Do a Google search on "HKB File Extension" . There are other programs out there that can deal with them or maybe even convert them. [/quote]
Hello RavenX, I don't really read posts with distracting levels of bold text. The trick to getting people like me to read things is to be succinct and to the point. Neon highlights are no substitute to good writing. No offense. A life spent being bombarded with advertisements has lead to eyes that naturally avoid looking at anything that resembles them.
Babump - need more reports
It seems like there's a lot of us who are getting hit with Crash-To-Desktops here and can't play the game, or even get into the Options menu. Since the debug.err files aren't being generated it looks like Elemental might be short on information for Why. Even if you don't crash all the time, please post anyway, a couple samples from computers that are working "fine," can also help us narrow down system specs. So let's get our system specs together. Fill out the following sheet and writ
The water in Elemental videos has been catching my eye every time I see it. Would the developer who did it please step forward for a round of rocking applause!
Did not have the same problem with beta 1, but am getting it now. The game always crashes to desktop when I hit "New Game." or "Option." Windows XP.
For the developers: note the black "border" that extends around the book as well, there's a big black sqaure of empty nothingness there as well. It if means anything, Windows XP SP3 IE6
Note: on a reinstall, the game claimed to need 4+ gb of space to reinstall and refused to install to a hard drive with only 2 gb free, raising an "error" in the download manager screen. The game itself says it needs 0.99 GB of space.
[quote who="kryo" reply="19" id="2645235"] If it was any other developer, it would be on both DD sites. Most "any other developers" don't have their own major DD outlet where they don't have to pay a cut to a reseller. While Steam fans tend to say that they buy everything there and don't know anyone who doesn't do the same, traditional retail still outsells DD by a huge margin. The war's just starting and it'd be plain silly to start handing Valve our money a
Now if only I could get past the crash to desktop part. Yeouch.

(Note: If you have similiar problems as described here, please post. I want to find out more about it.) The screenshot below illustrates a bug I have been having since 0295. It doesn't always happen but sometimes it does. Basically, during the startup of the game, the camera gets "locked" into a moving in a certain direction and my sovereign just drifts away on the wind. You can see there there is a spot that I can see, my startin
[quote]If this game comes out on August 24th of this year I will be surprised. For me, it is more likely to end up being Feb 11 2011. However, it is obvious that Stardock is hard at work.[/quote] Everyone at Stardock is working very hard and Wardell is calling good shots on sharply limiting the scope. It looks like an intelligent choice was made to focus the campaign as an RPG given the incomplete state of the game, allowing work to proceed. I too feel they won't make the Augu
