why do some mods get denied? in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

specifically mine... i submitted a mod that were pictures of the cast of battlestar galactica in the format of all the leader pictures. I put them into my game and have been using them ever since i submitted this, and they have worked fine so, id like to know if stardock could tell me why it was denied, or if there was something wrong with it, what specifically was it? because nobody else has submitted this yet, and i have created those, along with log

Reply to The SciFi Channel gives Galactic Civilizations II an A+ in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

i already have 2 mods waiting to be approved (one seems to be taking forever) of the pictures of BSG characters for use as leaders, as well as race logos for each of the 12 colonies. and depending on what kind of time i have in the future i may begin trying to design bsg models in 3ds max for use in game.

Reply to embarassing question in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

just find a ship with you want to be at war with and send another ship there it will say attacking so and so's ship will result in war do you want to? and you hit yes and away you go, no alignment hit or anything, its just how it works. actually a nice tactic is invading undefended planets in the same turn to declate war, but on higher dificulty the ai will notice what you're doing and might say move those transports or we will attack, and then they m

Reply to upgrading my flagship in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

the post doesnt appear on the recent posts until the first bump, and the first page of the forum is mostly stickies and other things so some get lost, and others take longer to appear. like was said earlier, your flagship is a medium hull ship, so you cant upgrade it until you have medium hulls researched, once that is done, make a new medium hull ship, pop on what you want, and you can upgrade to that.

Reply to specific espionage in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

personally i steal lots of tech from my enemies, like has been mentioned, you have to reach the advanced level and its not specific as to what you are trying to steal, but i have stolen vast amounts of tech from them, enough to even catch up to their level when i was very, very far behind

Reply to GalCiv2 - BETA? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

seriously, as kryo basically said, inestigate and search a little before you complain about something like this, since you believe the game to be a beta it is likely you ended up downloading the v. 1.1 patch which is in fact in beta form. and users were told only to download it to test and if they were ready to experience crashes and other bugs. the former versions of the game ie the shipping version is very stable, and a solid game EXCEPT for the peop

very nice, how did you learn 3d max? were you taugh it? learn yourself? is it possible for someone to teach themselves how it works? id love to try some of this stuff, and ive been changing other htings in the game already. but great job they look good, and id say that the defiant should likely be a medium hull, i know in botf it looked a lot smaller then the sovereign and galaxy class. but great work its awesome

Reply to Noobie questions time in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

starbases cant do anything to help protect your planets. military bases can help the attack and defense of orbiting ships if you have modules installed on it, but having starbases near planets wont help protect, about the troop transports i dont know. the only thing i could say is make sure there isnt still a shield symbol on the planet because that means there are still some ships there.

Reply to mods in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

first off i think the logos and everything need to be saved as png's not sure if it matters or not. if you want to submit something go to the "library" section of the site and in the upper right corner there should be 2 buttons add mod and my mods. hit add mod and it gives you directions

Reply to no internet guy got screwed in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

kryo pretty much covered it. if you dont have the net, yet you have access sometimes, which im assuming since you posted this, you can create archives of patches and transfer them to your computer (i dont know how is done, i just know thats what people here have told people in your situation) also, you dont need the patches to listen to you own music in the game. theres no type of "player" to run your music, but if you go into the general music folder

mods in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

ok so i have a question. when you submit mods either actual mods or just pictures and logos, it goes to a pending status and eventually goes to approved or rejected, why do some get rejected, any reason then the obvious, they dont work reason? and who checks them to see? are there stardock people who just check those mods to see if they work and if they should be approved? or is it someone like brad who is doing stuff on the forums, working on the game

no offense terpfan, this isnt a forum for talk about blazing angels, i understand that by labeling it as such, people who dont want to read it can ignore it, but this is a forum about galciv 2 and about issues revolving around it, its not the place to help advertise for other games you like, imagine if every other person on this forum posted a review of something unrelated like you did, the forum would be bogged down by it and you wouldnt be able to fi
