Yes they turn colors when you get DS points. You can turn it off in the options. Dark side corruption.

I think everyone else has Video cards covered. About the trackballs. Here are two to try. I use this one. http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-910-001799-M570-Wireless-Trackball/dp/B0043T7FXE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1324659354&sr=8-1 If you want to use your fingers on the ball instead of your thumb, try this one. http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Cordless-Optical-Trackman-USB/dp/B00006B9CR/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1324659483&sr=8-1

When your in a group and have a conversation choice, only one of you can have their choice acted out on screen. Those numbers are your "rolls" to determine who wins and gets their version of the conversation shown. So I choose to Kill the captain, and you choose to let him live. I roll a 100, you roll a 140, and he lives.

I can't believe people don't do this, especially since its FREE. No food/water costs!

I had this problem yesterday. I couldn't see party chat. I made sure I had party chat enabled in the general tab. I even Turned it off and then back on. It didn't show up. I Changed to a character on different server and didn't have a problem with party chat.

There is a setting in the preferences to show the choices when you mouse over the dialogue options.

You can map the left and right bars. Its in the preferences, keybinding tab. Scroll through all of the options for the action bars. Its there.

Yes, this is what I experience, also. At least I can tab target some of the mobs. In the beta it didn't work at all for me.

It was wrapped in Tissue and was fixed to the styrofoam on the upper left side near his head.

Activate your account by entering the code that came in the DVD case. Then activate your subscription by entering a payment method (credit, debt or game time card). You will have a 30 day "free" time added to your account.

Your "pets" are in your general tab of your abilities (P). I don't know about the vehicles, but I assume they are in the vehicles tab of your abilities (P).

Every character you have or make should get the items.

No you can only move the chat window (Hold the general tab and move it) and the operations (raid) frames. They are supposedly workign on a moveable, scalable UI.

Check your in game mail. Even if you don't see the "you have mail" icon in the upper left of your screen, click on the mailboxes to check.

I also have this issue on the two characters I have crews skills. It didn't show up until a couple days into head start though.

No it doesn't effect movement, etc. You should equip the heaviest armor your class can wear. This isn't Skyrim. :-)

No he can't fight for you. When you first get your ship and meet him there is a dialogue about him not being able to withstand combat. He is there just to take care of your ship and craft for you.

There is one that sells 7 different packs for the starter companions. He is in the cantina on Balmoora. Pricy, though (at lest for a lvl 16)....12K credits.

I had this the other day. My wife and I play together much of the time. Her inventory was full and she couldn't get her companion to sell her greys. She would hit the go sell button and the companion would blink out for a sec and then reappear. Nothing was missing from the inventory. We were in a class instance at the time. Bug?

Umm.. you mean just like the global search in WOW?

I have noticed this, also. Perhaps OP have just done all the dark side missions?

This is for Armor/weapons. Biochemistry only goes Green=> 1blue=> 1Purple..correct? What about Mods?

I am pretty sure its a bug. I have seen nodes that are on the map, but you can't interact with them. Once I see that it is broken, I haven't seen it become functional. It is not because someone has harvested from that node and they are respawning. I have harvested a node, and then stood there chatting with some one and watched the node respawn. I have I am curious to see if they become functional after the server reset tonight.
