Hi,
i have problems with self-created maps from that map creator, i downloaded from this site(version 0.4.4). i rewrote the mapcreator.ini correctly i supose.
the planets (except the starting planet), the wormholes or other objects in the system are invisible. when i click at the right place, i can work with them, but its difficult to find them^^ (same problem also on a different computer)
normal maps work
i have no mods installed
can anybody help me
i have the US-version from the game 1.71

ps: sorry for bad english, my last english lessons are several years ago. (i m european)

I just loaded the 1.71 upgrade and started playing a saved game and now there is a limit of 100 Satilites per sector that was not there before. Is there a way to change it back without starting a new game? Is this a bug I should put in the bug forum?

I get an Access Violation Error when I check the Empires Comparisons screen.
Access Violation at address 00542469 in module 'SE5.exe'. Read of address 0000004A

I am using ver 1.71 with Balance Mod 1.14 FQM 14. with 2 Star Trek races.

I want to install a second copy of SE:IV in another directory for a pbw-mod game. Despite being a long time player, I'm not sure if I'm doing it right and don't want to mess up my original install.

Actually, my original CD has that bug where autoplay wants to reinstall it every time I put it in, so I guess I could just designate a new folder, but if I want to patch it up to Deluxe, will the patch know where to go? I don't want to overwrite anything I've had installed since the dawn of time.

Thanks.

Okay..

1- Im playing in a game with about 8 CPUs (in a large cluster map i generated an placed only 6 start locations in.., no neutrals, medium number of CPUs, galaxy already explored for everyone, on hard), and i allowed in the game settup that all players could see everyone else score.. (i wanted to see how i was faring against the CPUs) and whenever i try to look at the comparison chart in the empires "page", the game crash to desktop with an access violation to XYZ file. By the way, i got the game via steam.

2- For some reason.. maybe because i reduced the game in the taskbar, whenever i go in my ship design page and i take a peek in the space simulator.. all the icons for my ships vanish, are replaced by various pics of random races (that change frequently if i go in and out of there), then all the pics of my ships on the leftside of the ship designs are just gone, only the name remains.

Can you open more than one warp point in the same sector in SEV?

In SE4 you could.

Hi guys i've done a search and coulden't find the answer for this one, so here I go.

I have worked out how to set waypoints and tell a planet to "move" to it by selecting the planet and pressing "1-9", but once I build ships from that planet the ships don't move anywhere. I am odviously doing this wrong, can anyone shed some light on this?
