I just wanted to download your precious gem, but this rapid share thing makes it really hard, after two waiting cycles I must pass a captcha. I suggest you register a free account with box.net. This gives you some personal hassle free storage space. The free account has a size limit of 25 MB per file. I assume this would be sufficient.Good luck with your game.Cheers

Afraid not I can't get it to download more then 1.6 mb before it just hangs,don't know if anyone else has managed to download it.

Weird , i tried all the download site and they work.I forgot that it may be necessary to download also Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) to make it work.Someone can tell me if it is needed , i already have installed visual studio 2008 on all my computers and can't check for myself.

Hi LittorioFirstly welcome to the SSC! I managed to download your game, but upon un-archiving it, I came across this error while using 7-Zip " CRC failed in StarShipSim\CEGUIBase.dll. File is broken" Hope that helps.

This looks very cool. I'll wait before trying it til i see if others here can get it working. i've been working on a very similar game for many years. I hope to announce here by end of year when it's finally in a playable condition.

Hi LittorioWelcome to SSC and I was able to download it fine from the download area but there is a problem when extracting the file I see this error:CRC failed in 'StarShipSim\CEGUIBase.dll'. File is broken.If you want to give me the location of the archive that is fully working I can upload it again for you.

I re-uploaded the file

[Geraldine]

Ok a new error message "StarShipSim\d3dx9_43.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette" My Visual C++ thingy was recently updated. Trying to install the package you earlier linked to is older than my current install. I am worried that if I do install it some other things (mainly Steam games) will refuse to work. Any advice?Also found another error message hiding behind the first one "OGRE EXCEPTION(7:InternalErrorException): Could not load dynamic library .\RenderSystem_Direct3D9. System Error: %1 is not a valid Win32 application. in DynLib::load at ..\src\OgreDynLib.ccp (line 81)"

Try to delete the file

[Geraldine]

Hi LittorioIf you mean the d3dx9_43.dll , its now coming up with the error that the application could not be found. It is still there, I didn't delete it, just renamed it. I noticed that in the Orge. cfg file that the video mode is set to "Video Mode=1920 x 1200 @ 32-bit colour" Could changing this help?

YAY got it to download but same problem as Geraldine.

[mdaddett]

I have replicated the problem in windows xp mode and i solved it by deleting d3dx9_43.dll and installing latest directx

[sscadmin]

Littorio what is the specs for running the game?Is it safe to say that specs should be something like this:- OS = WinXP,Vista,7- Gfx = Latest gfx drivers and directx9/10 installed (redistributed package)- Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86)Because it looks like the last error was WinXP only issue? So is d3dx9_43.dll inside the archive or will it be pulled from it?

[Hypnotron]

This author seems very few on words...

[mdaddett]

I removed d3dx9_43.dll from zip.To solve the problem install the latest directx.It works on xp,vista,7Directx donwnload
