Galciv in a window?

November 7, 2003 10:40 AM from

I saw in the tutorial stuff on-line that you can run Galciv in a window. It mentioned something about a pack you can download off of SDCentral, but I can't find it. How can I run in a window?

Ability to run in a window is part of the newer patches. all you need to do is go into the shortcut properties for GalCiv and put a w on the end of the target path. For example, mine is:

"D:\Games\Galactic Civilizations\galciv.exe" w

Also you'll need to be running your desktop at 16bit color (or the game will not start) and a resolution higher than 1024x768 (or the window will be bigger than your screen!).
