I won't rule out the possibility that something I've changed in my system, be it hard or soft, is the problem. I do know how older games prefer systems from their respective hay day.
I've spoke to Mineral in the past about the ACTUAL dead screen that results in a server crash, and the response was that they're working on it. I didn't get any further information about it. So fingers crossed.
As for my system. The idea was to future proof it. After nearly 8,000 in parts it better fucking last at least 3 years. I rebuilt it shortly before making a new Gametracker account for Gametracker.
I have a good job. Not really a job, I should say. It's a passion. I build jet engines of all kinds. From turbo shaft Solarturbines Saturn 12 and 1300's, Centaur 4,500's. To J79 after burning beasts of thrust. I'm really just a mechanic that works on really expensive engines.
