Re: SEIV GOLD Patch #4 Now Available
you should add to that press release
Quote:
Space Empires IV Gold is of course the ultimate space opera turn-based 4X strategy title, having been the recipient of over a dozen industry awards and boasting a perennial legion of global fans. While other games come and go off hard drives, Space Empires IV Gold has stayed, thanks to a combination of addictive and feature rich gameplay and the ease of creating mods. Even years after its release the fanbase continues to give the world new content
|
and increase the hard drives at shrapnel games by at least 1 gig a month. Also in the news we are looking for two system admins to deal with the increase in complelity of running a game forum due to its size :-p

Re: SEIV GOLD Patch #4 Now Available
One new twist provided by the recent patch is the ability to "generate points" that can be added to ships and/or components... if the "points generated" can be research points we can have new "pirate/nomad" races that don't even need planets....
I just wonder if there is some way to create a race that don't start with a planet (maybe with a station)...

Re: SEIV GOLD Patch #4 Now Available
hey, with all this support now for "Planet Cloaking" can someone tell me where that comes in? Is that in a mod, or have I just been missing it in the stock game all these years?
thanks,
Alarik

Re: SEIV GOLD Patch #4 Now Available
The press release page has something about a new scenario for Lock and Load in its title bar. Some new form of subliminal advertising?

Re: SEIV GOLD Patch #4 Now Available
hi!
i have a slight problem with the patch...
it comes up with the message that i have a "wrong Version" of SE4. the message also says it can update Versions 1.60, 1.67 or 1.78. however, my SE4 install says Version 1.84 gold (install plus se4patch 3 from malfador website).
do i really have to reinstall?

Re: SEIV GOLD Patch #4 Now Available
Just install SE4 over your current copy and apply the patch. No need to uninstall or anything.
