1. Played a game as Gaians, every time I was attacked by native Spore Launchers, game would crash. If I attacked them, game would crash. "terran.exe has stopped working.." Transcend'd victory anyway but had to reload from autosaves multiple times randomly.

2. Checked the version of SMAX ingame, says its 1.0. Went to download official patch 2.0. when I tried to load SMAX after installing the patch, it says "CD not found", so I reverted to the 1.0 version (downloaded as-is from gog)

3. Is it necessary/even possible to install these patches:

These fixes seem fairly helpful, would be nice if they were included in the gog download or if it is possible to even install them.

4. Will try getting windowed mode to work tomorrow...

i dont know why the website keeps deleting my thread
