March 16, 2016, 11:41:25 PMA recent windows 7 update broke alien crossfire. alpha centauri seems to still run. The links to patches at firsxis games produce not found errors.
This is all windows would give me for an error report:

January 02, 2016, 03:51:32 PMThanks for your work and can you please add disabling automatic prototyping in your patch? This 'feature' constantly screws up custom designs and disabling it doesn't work in multiplayer.
September 04, 2015, 03:22:30 PMYes, they will be changed back to the "default" values in the next release.
However, I do not think there is any way to update an existing download; I would have to provide a new download, and for something as minor as user-changeable values I don't think that's worth it.
May 29, 2015, 11:00:19 AMSome other thread, there was discussion about options in this release version of alphax.txt, that they were remains from some testing: ... 8, ; Drone rules code {1 to 63} ... 0, ; Bonus speed per reactor for copters {-128 to 127} ...
Will they be changed to their "neutral" values in the next release?: 0 2 respectively.
If so, maybe this release could be updated with these corrections?
March 02, 2015, 08:51:30 PMI keep getting a 'unable to allocate draw buffer' error and CTD when I start a new game. (using the GoG version, and a dual screen setup).
Now it's day and night the irons clang, and like poor galley slaves
We toil and toil, and when we die, must fill dishonored graves
But some dark night, when everything is silent in the town
I'll shoot those tyrants one and all, I'll gun the flogger down
I'll give the land a little shock, remember what I say,
And they'll yet regret they've sent Jim Jones in chains to Botany Bay.
