Re: Running Transcendence on Wine
Ttech, Thanks for the praise. I checked out the "edit view" of other articles to learn how to do the header divisions and stuff. I'm familiar with BBCode used in PHPBB forums, so it wasn't a big stretch. Beyond that, my day-job is as a support technician, so writing (or speaking) clear instructions ...

Re: Running Transcendence on Wine
I would be glad to do a proper write-up and place this on the wiki. How do I do that, and where do I go to get it done?

Re: [MOD] Dynamic Systems V4
Well it was lots of fun, indeed. I think combining it with Dynamic Systems might have been a bad idea on my part, though. Each system took me several hours. :P May I recommend having two keys? At the end there's only one key, but there are two dead stargates (one at the beginning and one at the end)...

Re: [MOD] Dynamic Systems V4
Ok, so the Sung are ridiculous. To take down a slave camp, I have to kill six defense satellites and the main camp. When I do that, DynSys seems to spawn a retaliation/replacement fleet for each satellite I destroy, as well as the main camp...and even spawns a Dragon Slaver. Defeating the Sung shoul...

Running Transcendence on Wine
I have it running very nicely in Wine. It almost never crashes, and performance is pretty good. I have a Late 2007 MacBook Pro with an Intel Core2Duo 2.4 GHz, 4GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT, running OS X 10.6.8. I just installed Wine according to these instructions: http://davidbaumgold.com/tutori...

Re: [MOD] Dynamic Systems V4
Sweet, thank you for the "patch."
RE: IRC...I have never used IRC and have no idea how to. I've used every other major chat network except IRC and QQ. Mostly accidental ignorance, as the opportunity/need for me to learn how never arose.

Re: [MOD] Dynamic Systems V4
I just edited the XML to remove the suns' firing events. I liked the idea, but the sun was destroying half the stations in any system, and moving asteroids all over the place. And the nonstop piles and piles of irradiated ships was getting ridiculous. Neat idea, though. I quite like it. If I decide ...

Re: How do I Beat the Dragon Slaver?
That does sound like fun. I just need to find a second one. The whole "functioning" part of it involves sacrificing a Longzhu Sphere, so...when I find a couple more of those, I might give it a try. On another note, my whole bit with complaining about losing a Patch Spider? Totally no big deal now th...

Re: How do I Beat the Dragon Slaver?
Cool, so I've got some pretty nuce guns. :) I also got an Ares Archcannon and an Ares Lightning Turret, but the turret's recharge time makes me not like to use it a lot, and I can't install the Archcannon yet. I also got this "Sodium-Cooled Device," which is apparently worth a pretty penny, but I ha...

Re: How do I Beat the Dragon Slaver?
So I was lucky enough to take down a Ventari base, and I was gifted a functioning Fusionfire Howitzer in exchange. I think I should install it and sell my Mark 3, no?

Re: How do I Beat the Dragon Slaver?
Not much has positron resistance, and I personally like the Positron cannon (after I sold them to teratons for rins :twisted: ) Is this your way of saying the Positron cannon is nice, but worth more as money? As for Nadao, I think the Nadao and Howitzer are interchangeable. I feel like I miss a lot...

Re: How do I Beat the Dragon Slaver?
Thanks for the tips. I like your strategery. When I go back for another round, I'll do my best to keep the Earth Slavers off the temple, especially if I see fighters spawning from one of them. I'll grab a lancer soon, but for now I'm encroaching on Ares space. I'm at the CSC India running missions f...

Re: How do I Beat the Dragon Slaver?
I see. My understanding of detailed game mechanics in any game is minimal, so grasping this multiple damage types and resistances thing is tricky for me. I've never been a numbers guy when it comes to games. All my friends know how to beat a game using statistics and knowing the ins and outs of the ...

Re: How do I Beat the Dragon Slaver?
Ok, so I'll just eat my stupidity with the loss of my patch spider. After I lost the one, I realised I should have uninstalled it before battle. Now I keep it uninstalled until I'm parked for repairs, and just use patches during battle if I really need to repair my armour while under fire. At least ...
