Ok maybe i should list some annoyances because i do have high hopes for ES based on their previous game releases. My Engineer sitting drinking coffee on the skunk whilst subsystems eventually get repaired refuses to repair my hull. Take a trip to a station find another engineer and he repairs it ins...

Since 1999 i have very much enjoyed all of the X Series of games and Egosoft should be congratulated on providing a unique experience to the games market. Like many i have stuck loyally to ES despite many bugs and problems, i have always known there is a dedicated and interactive team behind the tit...

Once the ship is claimed, how do i sell it ?
One i claimed just sat there and got killed, another i assigned to my miner lasted about five minutes with only 5% hull.
As they are clearly useless i'd like to repair then sell it and recover my pilot ??

Oops no worries it appears to be explained in video number 8 !! Legacy main menu !?!

Been watching the training vids in a last ditch attempt with this game, this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_4242692265&feature=iv&src_vid=JXQijj2-DEw&v=1eLxA6cV-m4 , shows a large menu of options sliding in from the left hand side of the screen (at 54 seconds in and oth...

Ok using all the tips you all gave i have managed to dock with the damaged red ship, unfortunately whilst wandering about on deck i fell through the graphics and died !! So now i'm doing it again but, my mouse cursor has err... gone. As i was using fire at cursor i now can't even hit the station let...

Thanks guys, it's reassuring to hear that it's not just my stupidity. I think in part my anguish is caused by the extremely clumsy interface. I always prefered to play X games with mouse keyboard and an intuitive setup for the keys, for example i only ever use the 'target object in my cursor', 'next...

Maybe it's because i'm old, maybe it's because i'm stuck in the old X'er ways but i have no idea what's going on ! Having finally (thanks tech support) got the game to run without crashing and playing the campaign there seems to be nothing fluid or intuitive about the game. The menu system makes no ...

After several game hours i think i can consider problem fixed (see above).

Update: ASRock website has a 210mb download for what they call 7004 audio drivers. After download and install, altho' early days, so far no problems. Here is the relevant bit of the new dxdiag: ------------- Sound Devices ------------- Description: Speakers (Realtek High Definition Audio) Default So...

Sorry yes first thing i did - verified successfully.
Just checking the ASrock site for sound drivers now, will report back.

That's very possible but please note my problem is not a crossfire one.
freezes occur with single card usage.

Having bought and setup a new pc just to play Rebirth i'm unable to get very far before the game just freezes and looking for some pointers. I'll try to provide as much info as i can as being a veteran X'er (since 1999) i know of the importance. Version Lastest X Rebirth v3.10 english Unmodified Sta...

Second Edit: Realized that my only fix was to just suck it up and complex the two Silicon Mines that were rubbing, and then assign traders to ferry and supply the Silicon to the Complex. Not perfect but it will work. If there is any rubbing they will eventually blow up, check their shields are not ...

Gravity, now that really sucks !

I have experienced a similar thing, in Omnicron Lyrea after killing a few Terrans and all is quiet and blue i engage seta to wait for the next wave. Suddenly the whole sector turns red even tho i'm on good terms with Argon, still have my license and my f/f is set to friend. It has happened a few tim...

Note that Xenon (and Khaak) are the most difficult of all to capture, you will need all your marines at least 4* (preferably 5*) in fighting to stand any chance. I've tried it with 4* and 3* and they all die ! Spacewalk boarding an M6 from a defend station mission is a good way to give them fight ex...

Does this still work with vanilla (current patch) and BP ? I have added the Repair Laser to my hub and tried but cannot get it to work, the line jumps but it changes the item that i first selected ??

I had one like that last night but, as i already have an Aran for hunting i always carry spare Kestrel's with me to house Seta's. Using the Seta trick i used a repair laser until i had 12% O2 left then used my Cobra and 15 marines (5*) with no losses. As for repairing once you get it back to a safe ...

Well i checked every sector manually and no joy. It must have been many, many game hours ago and since the property menu does not show him other than the count of (1) in the title i'm guessing it's some kind of bug. If by any remote chance he made it to a station or ship i would expect the property ...
