Reply to Can create Empire. Can't create character. in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

Yeah, those are some pretty wild assumptions/guesses. The metaverse system is wholly unrelated to the forums. Best I can figure is that it was a glitch in the core of the scripting engine at the time. I've tried numerous times without being able to duplicate that situation, and we've never been able to register and get control of another's empire. The mystery continues... Thanks for the info on your IE version rivak, still waiting on the others...

IE Version 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519 is the latest version of IE and the version that we test the metaverse with. If you're using a version other than that (the 6.0.2900.2180 is the important part) then please post your IE version along with operating system specs, including service packs. If there is a continued issue, we'll attempt to get setup to test that particular version.

The metaverse is tested with the latest version of firefox, you absolutely must have the latest version installed. Because they release new versions so frequently, and the fact that there are so many versions (which changes between each) we can gaurantee that the site will work properly only with the latest version (which happens to be 1.5.0.3 right now). Even though firefox builds should be identical between the many operating systems that they release a build for - since the game i

This is what the 'spaces' should each look like, with the Add Player button to the right. This screensnip was taken from an IE 6 browser, so it does indeed work

We havent seen that issue is quite some time. What links did you follow whereby you could edit someone else's empire? EDIT : Just to be sure I created a new account, created a new empire, created a new character, went to Edit My Empire and then to Edit My Characters - through the whole process, in order, I was unable to duplicate any situation where I was in control of someone else's empire. I'm definately going to need more feedback from you all with regards as to exactly how you we

Reply to Can you leave an empire? in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

Yeah we know it's a little 'backwards' to leave an empire. It's on the list of things to take a look at but I don't have an ETA for when that will be changed.

To answer #1 - You simply visit the Empire page on the metaverse, and if the empire is opening to joining, you will see the 'Join Empire' button that you click on.

Reply to Having trouble creating character in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

I would wager that by 'waiting hours on end' you're referring to the 'Processing Data' window that appears when you attempt to create a character. If that is indeed the case, then I would guess that you're running an older version of firefox or opera. The metaverse does not support opera. If you're using firefox, you should make sure that you're using the latest version.

Metaverse (Website) Update - April 26th in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

Hello Everyone! Just a quick post to let you all know that we have updated the metaverse website. You'll notice a few things have been fixed up (such has joining a moderated empire) and we've added just a few new features (such as RSS feeds). Enjoy!

Reply to Skin watch and forum watch.. in WinCustomize Site Issues WinCustomize Forums

We've isolated and killed dead the bug which was preventing the article watch emails from being sent. The skin watch seems to be working as it is right now on the server. To watch your own skins (this is a 'watch all my skins or none' implementation at the moment) click the 'My Account' tab at the top of the page, the Personal Pages tab and check the box which says 'Watch my skins'. You'll be in business after that.

Coastie74 - The bit about the test data is from an old index file that overwrote what we had up there. We'll be taking care of that soon. I have also just downloaded the latest version of firefox ( since it was updated to 1.5.0.2 recently ) to confirm that the metaverse still works properly and am unable to reproduce any processing data hang or dissappearing windows. If you're not using IE and still having issues, you can post information on your system and your browser and we c

ahsura the hegehog - I'm afraid that I will need more detail to address the issue you are seeing. Also, if you are running Firefox, please make sure that you have the latest stable version (1.5.0.1) as the metaverse website only supports that version of firefox and IE (no opera support).
