Have you played from positions #3 or #4? That's when I have the problem. The turn counter never advances beyond #1. They are looking at it. It would help to know if some devices do not have this problem.

Have you seen if the research project "Improved Resource Production" actually does anything? I completed it but see no change in resources.

You have to complete the research, then build an Improved Resource Production Facility (it's the icon on the top row, third from the left).

By the way, in any of the emails you've received, did the developers tell you when this week to expect the update?

I was not told this week, only "soon."

Today I got this email from the devs:

Quote:

We have the fix for the Player1 issue but still finishing up other issues and new features. Should be this week.

(Player1 issue is if you set Player 1 to "none" and play from positions 3 or 4, there's no AI or research progress.)

Can someone please help?????

I need the .NET Compact Framework Redist v2 BETA for my x50 and Microsoft has removed the download for some reason. Can someone provide a link for me to download?

They removed the link because the version is no longer in beta. Here's the link to the new version, but I don't know whether it will work or not:

On Thursday I was told their email and FTP was down, and that problem would delay completion and delivery of the patch.

I've moved on to other games for now. I've played this at expert level repeatedly and the AI is easily crushed. And I'm no strategic genuis by any means. Hope the patch improves the AI, but I'm not hopeful.

Next time.... wait for demo... wait for demo... wait for demoooooo :rolling:

Did you play with all 4 computer opponents in the smallest galaxy (smaller means fewer resources and so more competition)? I was going to, but then Pocket Plus wiped out my BIS, and upon re-installing everything, I decided not to re-install P4kAD until an update comes out.

Now my WM5 cd comes out, and I've done another complete re-install :) .

Yeah, well... it seems they're releasing software with it still not even out of the alpha/beta stage. At the very least, they should provide a demo. (sigh... ).

Yea, even on Expert its a cakewalk. My strategy is simple: land rush. I grab planets as fast as I can and resources build up quickly. I devote little to research. Then I attack and can overwhelm everyone with sheer numbers. Its boring after a while, but the AI can't stop it.

Still nothing on the patch. On to other games....
