Can somebody point me to a decent free archiver? I had the free version of winzip but it's expired and I'm not paying for a utility I use only when I have a problem with this game (literally). TIA

Guess I'll go back and start a new unmodded game and see if it stays stable. Frack.
winrar works pretty well. You'll get a little nag popup if you don't purchase it, but it isn't that annoying.

7-zip is good... can't actually create rar's but it can unpack them, and it's completely free

Welp i tried it again.


The sim times do seem much improved.

But the game still just plays slow menu delay + having to bring up total separate menus to enter stuff like designs name or its type. And other annoying UI stuff like that. Means i can do multiple Se4 turns in the time it takes me to go threw one Se5 one..

Heck, I have downloaded, played and then uploaded SE4 turns while waiting for an SE5 turn just to finish downloading.

Also check out TugZip or IZArc - both are free and can handle multiple archive formats.
