Uhm, first battle, first ship explosion = "STBC Has Stopped Working, Windows is looking for a solution."
And, I never allow more than 1024 x 1024. And that's the pain in the ass, If I want WC, then I open up PixBuilder Studio and resize. And, a lot of mods, if you think about are a bit cheater. Like the AI doesn't know to boost/redistribute shields, or order you to self-destruct.
The reason for my original question regarding DS9/BCS was that maybe, try again with that mod .. .. Even though the transporting of the enemy to my ship had ALWAYs pissed me off.
