  1. I assume you got this working. If not, pretty much all the top threads discuss how to get it working in Windows Vista/7 or 8, 32 bit or 64 bit. If you can't find any resources try my post which I tried to make exhaustive, http://forums.swrebellion.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=28193&p=549885#p549885. If you still can't get it working send me a PM and I can try to help you.
  2. I am not a developer so I can't explain the technicalities of the why, but sometimes rebooting does result in a change because the environment that the application is operating in is "cleaner". Case in point: Neverwinter Nights 2 will run dog slow/stutter if you play it on the most powerful hardware available today in Win7 if the OS has been running and used for months without a reboot. Once you reboot it the stutter goes away. I imagine that whatever resources are getting used, corrupted, or otherwise not responding the way they should be would be similar between a regular environment and a VM environment. Glad to hear things are working again
  3. Have to ask: did you notice any strange behavior in the guest VM? Or was it just the Rebellion application?
  4. Are you playing windowed or fullscreen? The instructions that I've found on the site for playing the game in Windows 7 do not apply to Windows 8. I am not sure if it's because they are incomplete, or there are additional steps for Windows 8. In any case, it can't hurt to try at the bottom of the thread here. Trying in a virtual machine will work for the base game, the TC will not install if you are running it with any virtualization technology. If your game is freezing while playing the movies but working when you delete the folder, what that tells me is that either Slocket's right in that the videos are fine and you can't decode them OR there may be a problem with your version of those files. You may want to try getting fresh copies of those files from your CD. If that doesn't work, maybe you need fresh copies from someone on the board.
  5. Hi, I was wondering if anyone else gets this problem when trying to load a card in rebed: I see no way to actually load the card. Here is what I see: http://i.imgur.com/j0Au0Wu.png I see no way to load the card. It looks like the window is too small (rebed does often spawn windows that are too small for me), so I tried to expand it but I cannot do that either. Double clicking and right clicking doesn't do anything. Is this a bug with rebed?
  6. I played around with it for about 2 minutes. The only thing I wanted to ask was: the interface seems too large for the container, i.e. the galaxy map + frame is large enough to require scrolling. Is this intentional? I just realized that it may be that the intent was to have a "zoomable" map, but in that case, shouldn't the frame itself remain fixed while the galaxy changes size? OR, am I just noobing it up?
  7. I apologize if this has been asked and resolved before, but do the numbers on the top of your screen, for any values of raw materials or refined materials (let's assume you have enough maintenance) impact how soon production starts on your queues? I have noticed that often I will see something like: "production time is 12 days" but the queue will not actually finish in 12 days, leading me to suspect that it either started late or paused and then resumed at some point during production. Is this related to having no refined materials available (second number across the top being 0)? Or is this something else like system support? Semi-related: I noticed that you can right click on your production facility queues and set them to "reserved". Does anyone know what this does? TYIA.
  8. To add to DarthTex's post, I believe this happens in windowed mode regardless of OS (I have tried on XP, 7, and . Through reading this forum's many varied posts, it looks like this is just an artifact of running in windowed mode and because this game was created at a time when the graphics engine was...confused to say the least. I don't remember seeing this in XP fullscreen, but I could be mistaken. TL;DR: if it's not preventing you from playing, I would just ignore it.
  9. EDIT: Ok, I got everything working. The nature of the problems that I was having was that files in the Program Files folder (both 64 and 86) are read-only and Rebed writes DIRECTLY to those folders. This is a little misleading because of the phrasing on the two buttons: "Save Configuration" and "Load Configuration". "Save Configuration" is "save to file", or an export function. "Load Configuration" is "apply configuration file to rebellion". Again, I think the terms are generally misleading because "save" and "load" usually mean "save to disk" and "load to memory", whereas in Rebed they both imply writing to disk. So, there are two solutions to this: 1 is to unlock all files and folders in the rebellion directory from read-only. The other is to place rebellion in a location where it never gets the read only attribute in the first place (this requires some registry tweaks). My personal preference is the latter, but should you prefer the former all you have to do is select the rebellion folder and right click > properties and uncheck the read-only box. Double check everything to save yourself grief. Then run rebed. If you wish to do the former, I have edited the instructions above accordingly. Happy hacking.
