Again welcome Floppy!

I think XP could be the issue. Let me ask around.
I recall we are now coded for Vista Windows 7

I don't speak German, but I was able to read some of the error log. I still dont know what the issue is though.

XP shouldn't be causing an issue. The game is natively designed for Windows 7, but it runs fine on XP too - we've had a lot of people comment that this is the case, and I have an old XP computer that it runs fine on.

My best guess is that *some* component that Supremacy needs isn't working or isn't installed. Supremacy needs quite a few components installed, not just .Net Those components were posted by Iceman I believe, and I reiterated them in another post a month or three ago. That might've been on Facebook though lol. I'll see if I can find the links for you.

Please check that you have *all* the components listed here:

The game runs fine on XP, like Matress said, provided you have the pre-reqs. Check the XNA fw in particular.

You've posted the wrong log file - we need Error.txt or ServerError.txt (One or both may be present and are automatically deleted every time you load the game [And remade during a crash], so if the game crashes copy the txt files straight away).

The file you just copied was Log.txt. Note that that is a completely different file and is basically a log of the games' attempt to randomly create a Galaxy map when you start a new game from scratch. It's very rare you would ever need to look at this file. It could potentially allow you to cheat if the F12 reveal map option is ever removed though...

No luck yet?

Sorry to insist on this, but did you make sure that you have the v3.1 XNA FW installed? It's an XNA issue, so this is the most logical source for the problem you're having.

don't know but try deactivating "high image scaling" in OPTIONS

at my PC it takes around 30 sec. to get turn 1 ... a longer time could be normal at your PC (maybe it's some years old)

Hoping that this will not be forgotten or ignored, I'll bump this thread.
