  1. Whoa!! Look who dropped in!! Hey Gordon, how's it going man?
  2. This patch requires the November 2008 (or later) DirectX runtime Use the game Updater to download and apply the patch. The online VCF has also been updated.
  3. This patch requires the November 2008 (or later) DirectX runtime Use the game Updater to download and apply the patch. The online VCF has also been updated. NOTES: The patches use a different installer. So be sure to confirm the location of your install in the dialog which appears!! If you use the game's Updater, it will download the patch and apply it. If you don't want to use the Updater, then you have to check one of the public mirrors for a link to the full patch. NOTE Games supported: UCCE v1.00.03 (or higher) Full (Take2 DVD-ROM retail version) UCCE v1.00.03.01 (or higher) Full (Direct2Drive or Gamers Gate version) * UCCE v1.00.03.01 (or higher) Full (Digital River version) * UCCE v1.00.03.01 (or higher) Full (BMT Micro UCSE to UCCE upgrade version) * * IF YOU BOUGHT THESE VERSIONS BEFORE 11-01-07 - OR YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY DONE THIS FOR A PRIOR PATCH - YOU HAVE TO EDIT YOUR SETTINGS.INI FILE BEFORE USING THE GAME UDPATER. THIS IS BECAUSE IT NOW SUPPORTS ALL THE VARIOUS DRM VERSIONS. FAILURE TO DO THIS WILL RESULT IN YOUR DRM SIGNATURE BEING INVALIDATED (DUE TO AN INCORRECT PATCH BEING DOWNLOADED AND APPLIED). Go to your game install folder and make a backup of the SETTINGS.INI file. Then load the SETTINGS.INI file in Notepad. Go to the UPDATEINFO section and make the following changes depending on which version you have. If you have the current version, no changes are required. When done, save the file, exit Notepad and run the Updater. If you run the game and you are prompted for license info, then you messed something up. In which case you will have to rollback to the previous patch and do it over.

  5. One of my all time favs!!!
  6. I have no clue what you're talking about. The PSU should either have a 6-pin PCIe cable built in or it should have a standard Molex to 6-Pin PCIe connector. Either way, the idea is to power the card from the PSU. So if your PSU only has a Molex connector, you are going to need two of either one. Then you're going to need two Molex to 6-Pin PCIe connectors and connect one into each 6-Pin connector on the video card. When in doubt, contact your PSU manual. And if you don't know if your slots are PCIe 2.0 or not, consult the manual for your computer or motherboard. Seriously, READ the manuals!!!
  7. The Radeon HD4870 (comparable to the GeForce GTX 260) is a very capable board and you probably won't need to upgrade for awhile. If your PSU is 750W, then it probably has the required connectors. You need 500 Watt or greater power supply with two 75W 6-pin PCI Express power connectors or a 600 Watt and four 6-pin connectors for ATI CrossFireX. The connectors are what power the card and go from the PSU into the card. ATI has a page for recommended certified power supplies The fifth image over here shows you what the 6-pin PCIe connectors look like. They also come in 4-pin on some boards. So your PSU has to have two of those 6 or 4 pin connectors depending on the board.
  8. A KB update has been released. Download ucce_kb081226.zip* and unzip into your current game folder, overwriting files when prompted. Updated fpitems.html appendix file entry for GLE22 The prox grenades in the GLE22 have been replaced with flashbang grenades * Was previously released on 12-14-08 as ucce_kb081114.zip. This is now obsolete.
  9. Its published by 1C, not developed by 1C
  10. Of course they have a US publisher. Deep Silver distributes worldwide. The reason its not in retail is because, well, there's no money to be made. Thats why you can buy it online e.g. on Steam. A games doesn't have to be at retail.
  11. Merry Christmas everyone!!!
  12. THere is no program that is going to give you your Power Supply Unit (PSU) rating. You can just open the machine and look at it. The wattage for all PSUs is listed (e.g. 430w) on it. For $250 US, your choices are plentiful and limited (depending on your PSU, its connectors etc) all at the same time.
  13. It would be a lot more helpful if you actually indicated what your budget was. You also need to know what your PSU rating is. Also if you have one or two spare PCIe connectors on the PSU because some high end cards (like the nVidia GTX boards) need two connectors, not one.
  14. Not sure where you've been reading that because UCCE is no more buggy than the average game. If you've been listening to those tits on the Net, they're going on about the original Battlecruiser game. Pay no attention to them since they can't tell their ass from their elbow, let alone one game from another. As to the DirectX error, you will ONLY get it if your DirectX runtime is not the same ver that the game requires. This is why there is a warning in each patch update that uses an updated DirectX sdk. The runtime has to match the sdk used or you will get that error.
  15. Apart from the fact that we've canned all plans to bring any space game to the console, Excalibur was never designed to be anything like UCCE or any BC/UC game for that matter. And neither is KnightBlade. I think I've said this before, but I'll say it again, there are NO plans to EVER make another BC/UC style game again. Ever. That niche genre is dead and gone and the closest we're ever going to get to that is our MMO (which comes after KB) in the next few years. Even so, GCO is designed to be accessible and not a niche game like the BC/UC series.
  16. heh, you beat me to it. I was just about to post one my Another One Bites The Dust posts. http://www.edge-online.com/features/source...dical-locked-up Sad news. Haze was horribly received, so thats probably what did them in.

    This is probably the most hilarious reviews I have ever - EVER - read http://www.aintitcool.com/node/39450
  18. OMG!!! Thats looks all kinds of bad ass!!! http://www.myspace.com/x-menorigins
  19. No. I don't even recall that ever being considered, given the type of game that it is.
  20. I hate XBLA. 'nuf said.
  21. LMAO!!! Yah, I think the appendix or manual mentions NOT having high levels of certain mix (e.g. URANIUM,STRONTIUM,KRYPTONIUM) of minerals in your cargo bay for an extended period of time or things will go BOOM!. If things don't go boom, you will get massive radiation.
  22. This is by far one of the most comprehensive and well written articles on video game piracy that I have ever seen. The author deserves a Pulitzer. I have touched on all his key points ranging from the much maligned Starforce, to the nonsense being written about SecuROM and of course the [artificial] popularity of Steam. http://www.tweakguides.com/Piracy_1.html
