Announcement Sins of a Solar Empire II - v2.0 Update + Harbinger Expansion (4th Faction) Available NOW
Bug/Issue SOSE2 - Game is crashing nonstop - basically unplayable.
It's actually crazy - the game seems to crash nonstop whenever I try to play on a map with more than 2-3 opponents.
This didn't use to be an issue when I played the game a couple of years ago, but now every time I load into a map its a crapshoot whether I just immediately CTD or CTD within an hour or so of playing.
Not running any mods. PC is very high end and runs basically every other game on max and ultra settings.
I read online about "updating my bios" and stuff like that but that's honestly insane - this is a 2 year old game, there's absolutely no reason why I would need to start flashing my bios to get it to run when much newer games don't encounter any issues.
So am I just experiencing something completely weird or is this a known issue with the game? Is something being done to fix it? I'm thinking about contacting steam for a refund.

Crash to Desktop Sins2 w/no mods
I can't figure this game out, Mods crash the game constantly - take out the mods and still crashes. I was 2.5 hours into a single player skirmish vs AI today and it always seems that when the AI starts getting StarBases and titans this game completely crashes to Desktop. Attempting to load an auto save - crash. Manual save - crash.
Frustrating

Sins Mod SOASE: Rebellion - Script Extender
Working on a new project, Script Extender for Sins Rebellion. I started the project mainly as a way to start making mods in Rebellion but was unhappy with the current modding ecosystem. Most of the mods I've seen are like texture replacers and that's what the Game Engine seems to support mainly. I wanted a better way to hook in game systems to make more advanced mods.
It is proving to be quite daunting I won't lie. Decompiling an unmanaged executable, finding memory addresses at runtime, it kind of sucks. But I've been making steady progress and already have a small API built, which in the right modders hands you could already make some cool mods with.
I've released an initial version over on GitHub, I wanted to know from other Sins players, would you be interested in playing the game with a SE that allows more advanced mods? Things like, new UI's, different core game mechanics, 3D (2.5D more likely) space, completely new ship types, etc..
I've also finished another application thats a wrapper for ConvertData_Rebellion.exe, its a clean UI interface that takes the original games application that converted game files from binary to readable text (MSDOS style application), and made a user friendly interface for it. I'll be releasing that shortly, more than likely later tonight.

"Sir there's another starship coming in... It's the Enterprise."
Disclaimer: The Armada 4 dev team makes it very clear that combining mods like this is not supported, liable to cause issues, and compatibility will likely be broken in the future. That being said, I am absolutely giddy as a pearl in an oyster that this is possible. Ever since the first Star Trek vs Star Wars mod graced Armada back in 2001, I always dreamt this would be possible, but never did I think it come true in such insane quality. Absolutely loving the possibilities modding brings to this game.

Sins Mod Any mods that allow access to the special ships of your faction's alternate side?
Basically I really enjoy the Vasari Alliance but hate their command ship. Conversely I dislike playing the Vasari Exodus but love their command ship. And, honestly, pretty much the same situation with the two TEC faction command ships. Anyone know of any mods that allow access to your other faction's command ships?
Thanks for any help!

Question News about the in-game map generator?
Are there any developments regarding it? Still waiting for a way to raise system spacing above 150 XD.
