He re-posted a topic that wasn't in caps, to comply with the rules of the webboard. It was the title line that got the previous topic locked, not the content. It's certainly possible that somebody will come along with an answer to his question.

Good point Starkiller. I thought that was kind of weak to lock out that topic.
nOOb, I can't recall if you mentioned what kind of system you are running. Could you elaborate on that please?

Try setting the monitor resolution to 832x624 and 256 colors - I think that's EV's native resolution. This fixed the problem for some emulator users that had your problem.

Escape Velocity doesn't particularly have a native resolution - it was built for 640x480, but built to use whatever screen space was available. 256 colours is the game's native bit depth, however.

I play at a somewhat higher resolution -- 1152 x 870 -- its cool cause I can see a lot more of who is near me. Also, doesn't it automatically switch color depth when you launch the game?
I Would suggest any the following:
Allocate more RAM Throw away your EV preferences file. Reinstall EV Download a new copy - yours may be corrupt Zap your parameter RAM 5 times If you're running any weird extensions, etc., create a new extension set just for EV.
just try these things one at a time. If it still doesn't work move to the next
Ty guys i appreciate it. I will give a try to everything. Thanks again
i got it to work by fiddling with the gui files ty guys
