contingency40 , really? Are you sure? I thought that I did take over a nice juicy minor race planet once via infuence after I destroyed the ships in orbit. Hm. Maybe it was GalCiv 1 I am thinking of.... -Brian

Because, as far as i know, it is the only way to determine what your influence is on a particular minor race planet. -Brian

And both of those lines have errors : ) I'm up for a game-wide textual review. -Brian

I find the game’s descriptions to be very unique and refreshing, but also in need of review and grammar/spelling revision. If you plan to keep the essence of what the writers wrote, then you might be on to something (and I bet stardock would integrate your modifications into the release build), but if you are out to change all the text, then you won’t have much support. I agree though, that a game of this excellence is surprisingly lacking in textual polish. The spirit of the writin

That is actually an interesting idea. I've personally not thought of doing that, but it could be done I suppose. -Brian

vortexdr I am going to want BETA testers at some point just to play a few games with them to make sure everything runs smoothly, then release the whole thing as a pack. AdmiralZ, thx for the list. I will keep it in mind. -Brian

SwiftBoot It is a fan-based design as a matter of fact. Even searching Magallan (not magella, sorry) doesn't get you very far. It is certainly not an official ship type. I just thought it looked cool : ) -Brian

Marcathonas. Isn't the frame rate cap at 60fps? Unless the throttling went buggy, but in normal operation I dont think it would have any effect if the card is already pushing -Brian

TheSirius . I plan on releasing all the models at once as a model pack or game mod. I guess all you have to do is keep me motivated so that I finish them all : ) I will post another one soon. -Brian

Well there are two issues to deal with. The first is getting the model in X format to import to GalCiv2. You should install: http://www.andytather.co.uk/Panda/Files/3dsmax6/PandaDXExport4.6.61.0.zip to your max plugin dir. Uncompress first obviously. Then export (file -> export -> select Panda’s X Exporter) using the settings: “X File Settings” -> Top Frame Only “X File Settings” -> Left Handed Axis “X

The Sirius - Download the game models or raw meshes? I am not sure where I will post this pack yet. There are a few affiliated download portals for GalCiv2. If you mean the raw meshes, then there are a number of locations on the net that offer them. Google. -Brian

Hey chippi. Well the first thing is to know how to use a 3d package. If you’ve used max, then you can start from there. The prereq is that you install some form of X file exporter. Pandasoft’s export tool is the best I’ve seen for max. Depending on how much of max you know, I can explain the details of how to get lighting and texturing into GalCiv. Let me know where you stand. -Brian [email protected]

Well, the intention of this model pack is to bring movie quality ships into GalCiv2. There is no way you will get that feel if all the parts were generic enough to fit together. They normal GalCiv2 ships snap together in the ship builder, which is awesome, but the ships definately do NOT look like movie quality. If you want to build star trek ships yourself in GalCiv2, then fool around with the existing ship builder material. -Brian</font

All ships have mount points, so you can add whatever you'd like. However the GalCiv stuff might look a little out of place. -Brian

I would love to do a Runabout, but with what I have available, optimization would be a total pain in the arse. I do plan on putting in a Delta flyer, which will probably be my next project. Galaxy would most likely come next after that. -Brian
