I only have the demo, but I just don't know if I can get past that cluttered main screen. I feel like I'm trying to play the game while looking through a slot. Yes, I will buy it, patch it, add mods etc. but please, give me that nice, clean SEIV look!

High rez mode helps a lot, since the fluff is a fixed size in pixels, but the view is rendered on the fly.

Can those three 'boxes' at the bottom of the screen be modded into pop-ups?

No, but you could make them partly transparent.

I spent the better part of the weekend playing 1.0.

Loving it, but its unplayable. The only reason I'm not disappointed is that technically I'm not "supposed" to have it, per Malfador. Today is the release day, the 16th. Thanks to Kwok and the other beta testers, I can see in the patch release notes that the issues I had over the weekend are now fixed in the soon coming patches.

I just hope like in seIV (at least it hink thye did) they release what files the changed in patch so if they never touched techarea.txt I don't have to rework that file for my mod. I can't wait until the patch since all of the things that I had issues with have been fixed in it (at least they say they were).

OP: I think the game is great with a bit of modding just like SE:IV. Can't wait for map editor though so I can make my own galaxies.
