Reply to Twilight : game freeze in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

lantzer if you have a problem it might be better to just start a new thread and explain your problem calmly, you are not helping jon1doc at all with his problem by ranting like this... ho and by the way the game works like a charm here : [email protected] 4GB XP64 8800GTS512 with game settings of : 1280x1024 4xMSAA and immense map size TA 1.96 (sorry jon1doc, I don't mean to brag about anything, just trying to replace the discussion on its tracks ....

Also if updating drivers is not enough to make it run, you might want to consider that any driver installation tend to leave some "left-overs" in the registry or files or whatever .... Most of the time, the procedures below are not necessary but since you told us that you just upgraded your graphic card... you might want to : -either use driver cleaner to clean your system (the free version, the paid one may be nice but it's not necessary as far as I know)&nb

Reply to Impulse problems in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

From what I understood SDC is a very patched up application, which requires too much work for several new applications or updates released... Impulse is a project rewritten from scratch... of course it's actually too young, but its scope is well beyond what SDC could ever achieve(still from what I understood) Also Virus Scanners are not GODS yeah it's true ! they are VERY VERY FAR from being perfect

Reply to Interested in game... demo not available? in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

don't be afraid by people who have problems on the forums most people don't go out crying to everyone on the forums : "ho it works on my computer" so the most you hear about are problems ... the game works like a charm here, and being out there helping people, I rarely stumble upon unsolvable problems.

Code Blocks question (not very important) in Forum Issues Stardock Forums

Hello, wasn't there a Code Block without an actual language to be specified before ? I find the code blocks quite nice for some things which are not listed here such as : autohotkey scripts, registry information... and more that I don't remember anymore... just in case to prevent some characters to be taken as other forum tags... the thing is that now we have to choose between different programming languages whereas I seem to remember there was a "genera

Reply to Umm yo Impulse, that's the wrong folder. in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

you're not the only this happened rest assured ... I think the devs are pulling their heads off to fix those issues [e digicons]X|[/e] Anyway... I wonder if the culprit of the problem is the fact that DA & TA path registry keys are relative instead of absolute ... for DA for example [code="C++"][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Stardock\Drengin.net\GalCiv2\DarkAvatar] "Exe"="DarkAvatar\\DALaunch.exe"[/code] as

Reply to Patch corrupted all apps of GalCiv II in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

[quote who="KingBobCat" reply="14" id="1941426"]I've been following this post, hoping someone would add to it, but no one has in the last week. The updating of the the Dark Whatever Game seems to have corrupted all of my Gal Civ games as well. I can't even reinstall the first two games off my "store purchased" CD. Have also tried reinstalling through Impulse w/ no luck... Any suggestions? [/quote] You can't reinstall the games from CDs ? o_O Did you uninstal

Reply to Game stopped working after last update in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

your custom race disappearing seems strange since updating/uninstalling/reinstalling the games shouldn't erase your personnal data ... but I don't have a clue as to what may have happened though you may want to search your computer for : "*.customracexml" files... second issue, could you post your "debug.err" file located somewhere like "my documents\my games\gc2darkavatar", this would allow us to be better able to help you.

Reply to Is this game for me? in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

you can also win by diplomacy and I agree with durhamTiger on that one given your post I'll say this game is for you I got the whole game + both expansions and gigantic or even immense galaxies are probably the setup you're looking for there's even buildings which allow to raise your military in the view of your opponents to keep them at peace and you can also buy wars between AIs so that they are too busy to think about you ;) .... <
