First I want to thank the creators of this game! It´s a very nice game with great modifications. It´s sad that there´re are some Bugs. I write you this in hope you can help me and I can help you

- In Single Player Mode the other races (romulans, klingons...) doesn´t develop themselves. In turn 243 I found the romulans and they had no ships, asolutly no development
- The game often shuts down during the change of turn x to turn y. Normally the points, standing in the middle (processing ship building, ...) going on fast. If there is a shut down one of this points keep standing on and on and its possible to go to the main menu.
-Playing the federation i had developed the frigate III but I was unable to build the ship. I just could build the frigate I and II
- I have the version i had downloaded. If i update the game with the latest updates I am unable to start the game anymore and so I have to delete the game and use the older version again.

Maybe it´s possible to get a translated version up to german? Would be great

Welcome to the forums Hellcat87
I am sorry you are having all these problem.
The reason the other races are not developing is that the game does not yet have a artificial intelligence to play for them. It is still in a pre-alpha stage of development. I should let others answer the other issues.

Hey Hellcat, welcome to the forums!

As Kenneth said, the other Empires don't expand simply because they can't - yet. This isn't a bug, it's simply that a game feature, albeit a particularly important one, isn't yet finished. The races require an Artificial Intelligence (AI) to control them. But Mike, the developer, has barely started working on the AI yet. We don't now how long it will take for Mike to finish the AI, but it will be the single most complex update that the game will require, and we're guesstimating that it will be around a year before it's ready for release.

Random game crashes are unfortunately inevitable whilst the game is still uner development. However, it might be helpful to us if you could help us find the cause. Whenever the game crashes for a reason it can identify, it will record this information in a file called "Error.txt" or "ServerError.txt". These files will be placed in your main Supremacy folder. The files will be automatically deleted the next time time you play the game though. If you could upload these files - if they are present - to a post, we will be able to look at the cause and might be able to trace it in future.

The shiplist is currently incomplete. A number of bugs are present in the game database. Unfortunately, the game editor is broken at the moment so the problems can't be fixed. Once the editor is working again, I will be personally fixing and updating the game database. Incidentally, the ships all have different build requirements. It's equally possible you didn't have a developed enough shipyard or not enough resources to build the ship.

Why can't you play the game after it performs an update? Does it crash or something when you try? If it does, download the game from scratch and put it into a new folder. Then download This File and let it overwrite your existing HttpDownloader.dll file in your main Supremacy folder. Then, click on Start => Run and type "%temp%UAB" (Without the quote marks) in the box that appears and press enter. This will open a folder called UAB; if there are any files or folders present in the UAB folder, delete them all. Run the game and if it says an update is available, let the game download it. Then run the game again. If the game still crashes, please post about it in the Supremacy Bugs forum.

If you encounter problems with the game, i've also created a post with all the known game problems and fixes where available, Here. The link won't work after I next update it though so if it doesn't work when you click it, the post is located right at the top of the Supremacy Bugs forum.

The game doesn't have a German translation, but a lot of people have asked for one. Most of us don't speak German, but the game does support hundreds of languages. So all we need is someone to do the actual translating...

I hope this answers your questions, if you have any more please feel free to ask.

Okay, then i am going to patiently for the AI

In the next days i will play the game until it crashes. If there is a message in the Error.txt i will post it here. I also will update the game and report the problem too.

I think I developed all what is needed for the ship. Maybe there is a TechTree for the federation and the other races? then i could compare the requirements and what i already have developed.
Maybe you can say me why i just can the factory of the federation just up to typ 2 and all other buildings can be upgrated?

When i update the game i can't no more start it. There is an error text i will write you next time i will try it again. This text came during the game starts and it crashes down. If all the problems are recorded i will try to use your help with the downloaded file.

Maybe i can help u to translate the texts from english to german. My english is not the best one but learning and using it would help me too

If you're willing to help, then please contact Mstrobel and let him know that you're willing to translate the game. He will be able to tell you how to go about doing it in more detail than I can. It might take him a while to reply to any messages you send though as he's busy with his "real" job at the moment. As the game is currently unfinished, you may end up translating text that won't be needed in the final game version, so it might be easier for you if you wait for more of the game to be developed before beginning the translations.

I'm not sure what you mean about the "factory of the Federation can only be upgraded to level 2". Do you mean the construction buildings, ie Fabrication Plants, or do you mean the Shipyard? If you can't upgrade either of the buildings beyond level 2, there is probably something wrong in the game database that I will fix when the game editor is working again. Incidentally it is apparently impossible to build the Prometheus Class Tactical Cruiser (Tech 12) because of a database problem.

You might find Dafedz's Database useful if you're looking for game info, such as shiplists. Use the links on the left to navigate the pages. The Full Ship Stats And Empire specific Empire Structures links will be the pages that will be the most useful to you.

Hellcat87 your English is better than my German so no problem.
Welcome and thanks for the offer.

No problem, i contacted Mstrobel but i am waiting for his answer

Just keep checking back in. Mike is on a business project that is taking all his time for now.
