I just want to ask why cant I change the map ive bin passing the first level 5 times trying to figure it out and i just cant change maps so if any one can please tell me how to change maps i wold rely apreciate it
I'm not sure exactly what you mean. Do you mean that you only see one map in the Map List when after you click on <Single Player> from the main menu?
I just loaded up the game and all I need to do is click <Single Player> and then choose a map to play from the menu. (I think there are about 10-15 small maps to choose from.) You can change the map size category and see other maps by clicking on <Change Map> at the bottom of the map list window.
If you can really only choose from a single map then you might have some sort of an issue with your installation. If so you could send an email to [email protected] or maybe read through older threads in the Technical forum.
yes i can only chose one map in (single player) you might be right maybe it is my installation anyhow thank you for helping me i just tryed looking for what you said no button that says change or chose map and i bely noticed my version of the game isnt up to date its Entrenchment V1.01 but i still cant chose a map relly sad not even my brother that has the up to date version can chose a map
Find the galaxy folder in your C:\Program Files\Stardock Games\Sins of a Solar Empire folder. If you have plenty of maps in that folder, it is probably your galaxy.manifest file that is not working correctly.
Yeah, that's a good idea. He should check the Galaxy folder. If it's the Manifest.ini that's messed up, if he were to move the Manifest file out of his Sins folder and then start the game, wouldn't it just create a new Manifest.ini for him that would allow him to see all of the maps?
I'm not sure if the game generates a new galaxy.manifest file or not. I was going to suggest trying Harpo's galaxy manifest generator, but if it does indeed do that it could work.
If you are playing on a map with more than one solar system, you need to research a long range jumps (different name depending on the race) located in the second or third level of the civilian technology tree. After that, you can jump from the star in your home system to the star in any other solar system.
