Excaliburs & Antimatter missile Missing?

I can't find the Excalibur or antimatter missile ships in my ships file and the tech to get the excalibur is missing from my tech files. Have they been taken out?

Excalibur and Anti-Mater Missle are in excalibur.ship and AntiMatterMissile.ship, respectively. Excalibur Technology is in bonustechs.tech.

Usually they are missing because the bonus pack is not installed.

I did have all expansion packs and all other updates installed. It just happened I was missing those.

Do you still have this problem, or did you figure out what was wrong? There's a sticky thread with links to the data files at the top of the forum.

GoblinCookie, do you actually have no .ship file with the definition for an excalibur (they're text files, you can open them in any text editor) or are they just never showing up in the game?

I just ran into this problem.

The first time I installed GalCiv, I downloaded the v1.1 patch, and then installed the stardock stuff and got the 1.13 files.

I recently had to reinstall everything, so this time I just installed stardock and did all my patching through that. It also claims to be v1.13, but it lacks missiles and Excalibur.

Sounds like one update package has them and one doesn't.

Quick addendum: some of the starbase upgrades (e.g. the speed enhancers) are also missing. So far everything else seems to be there.

It's the bonus pack that has these, not one of the patches.

There's a link to the data files for 1.13 in the thread about UP sharing issues.  You can download that, which should take care of the problem.

I have Gal Civ 1.13.080 and BonusPack 1.0.010 and am researching the final tech. Currently, I can only build these ships:

Battle Cruiser
Battle Hammer
Battleaxe
Colony Ship
Combat Transport
Constructor
Corvette
Death Knight
Defender
Excalibur
Freighter
Frigate
Scout
Sensor Drone
Star Fighter
Star Hawk
Survey Ship
Transport

I looked and I appear to have all the correct data files. It looks like I'm missing the ability to build the following ships:

Anti-Matter Missile
Avatar
Excalibur
Dreadnaught
Phoenix
Overlord

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks!

You have Excalibur on both lists.

I guess that's much, much worse then. You have a bug in the game where you do not have excaliburs. My game has a bug that is equally as bad but different.
