The game loads up and i join a game but the starting screen just stays forever after everyone is ready. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?
2 possible issues. Your graphics card drivers are a tad old. You may want to update them. Also you have a 32 bit system. Any custom game with multiple planets will use much more RAM then you have available. Try to set up a game yourself with only one planet (size 2 or 3) and start it immediatly (no other pople have to join) and see if that works.
32-bit Windows systems won't let you allocate more than 2GB of RAM to any one process, so this trick is your only option. You'll likely get crashes mid-way into game. It really doesn't make sense to be running a 32-bit OS these days.
Oh i know, unfortunately i need to upgrade but i was a bit slack and so now i have to spend a lot in one go which i dont have to hand. i will get round to it at some point though. Thank you for helping. My computer is just a bunch of **** at the moment so the one planet game worked but the multiplayer game didnt. thanks guys
