A couple of things I wanted to point out:

Everybody should defrag after installing the mod; I cut my loading times by more than half after doing that because the HUGE XML files were spread like snot across the whole drive.

As for bugs, I have now seen multiple crashes involving a combination of two factors, pirate ground troops and autoresolve. Whether the player is involved or not, it seems certain pirate units (not sure which or how) can crash an autoresolve.

Oh, and is it my imagination or did someone make the sovereign superlaser fire more often?

Defrag???

Defragment the hard drive.

It supposedly worked for me... utility said I got a 9% increase in speed.

I am getting an error when I try to save. The error says that the save had failed because there was not enough disc space. Help me please. How can I play a game that I cannot save???

First thing's first guys:

We can't do anything with exception details!!!

Only Petroglyph would be able to understand or explain what went wrong, and they don't handle support for mods.

Secondly: In your post, explain what you were doing when you got the exception. The more detail, the better. Though we don't want a novel, either.

Umm Petroglyph did not know that their game was a unbalanced free for all with one side always winning and a horrible AI and left the community to fix stuff on their own that they were to lazy to fix. I don't think they would be able to figure this out.
End Rant.

However this will all be fixed in time. I think I fixed my exeption with not useing the rebel comp on my team.

How do I do that?

How do I do that?

Start -> Programms -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Defragment something It might not be exactly the same (I was translating from Polish to English ), but it's more or less it
Then choose the proper drive, and go. Prepare for a couple of hours of waiting, though

I think I've found another bug. While playing skm vs CSA, I got an exception when they started building space mine...

[coinich]

I've played many games against them, and have had no problems, beyond their amazing ability to spam fighters and bombers...

[TheEmpire]

Finally fixed my exepetion! Never play with a AI on your team.

[keraunos]

And that's something I did couple of times already - without problems... :]

If you are Rebellion, spam Recusants. Level 2 and expensive, but fighter death with engines attached. Just watch out for VSD's.

If you are Empire, grab some Dreads, then ditch them at level 3 in favor of the cheap-ass and spammable Lancer. Also Soontir Fel and some Blastboats work wonders.

And if you are CSA, well just spam fighters and bombers of your own.

Not sure if this is a bug or just something in land not changed yet...but I sent Vader and a few stormies to a raid and the imperial troops were roughly half the height of the civilian troops. Don't think that this was intentional.

Also, i played a ground skirmish as the CSA, but none of the buildings appeared and i could not capture build pads (only turbo laser turrets for some reason). I then tried another game, going the rebels and buildings appeared as per usual.

It's believed that CSA structures were the main reason for GFFA crashes in 1.0, so that's why CSA is really only implemented for Space Skirmish.

I think PR encountered some odd crash with resizing the civy units at the last minute. As I recall, that was actually part of the delay in uploading 1.1.

Thanks! I missed reading that somehow!

Ug, exception at Ukio. Small space battle.

Odd, no crash.

Firstly, brilliant mod, I wanted to play on GFFA but it lagged too much but I found alot of enjoyment from the other campaigns, mainly the Thrawn Campaign.

A few bugs though...
> on the Thrawn Camapign GC I was able to build Obi-wan on Jomack as the Empire
> Pellaeon's description was missing on most of his upgrades and once i'd upgraded him to the Chimaera I could build another Pellaeon
> not sure if its a bug but the ai (on medium) would attack straggling planets I had left to be conquered (Its a waste trying to defend them all), destroy my space defences then leave even though there were no ground buildings or troops...

Let's restart this thread for the present download so I'm not confused.
