Reply to Advanced (BadPlanetType) Colonization in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

You can tell what level any planet is by a colored attached to the planet. Red = Cannot colonize - You do not have any of the extreme techs required. You can still invade, but the planet will be useless till you get the necessary extreme tech. Yellow = Colonizable - You have the first level of tech, your efficiency is 50%. Green =

Thats a great score for the style of game you played. I think anything over 100K is something to be excited about when playing the game straight up. I don't think the high score games were ever really envisioned by Brad and Cari when the did the game mechanics. Certainly i don't think they expected 1M+ games. My current game is taking very slow steps, and it's fun. I could ramp up and take everyone now, i'm still at war with everyone (bar minors) but i'm finding i

Ok sorry, i should not have said Dark Avatar, thats what i play and i'm used to saying it. Sorry. Just back up any GC2 related folders in your my games folder, (there may be a save game u want or certain ships you have designed or something) and try and play altarians then. The game will create a clean folder in my games, but at least you can be certain there are no files in there borking anything up.

[quote who="MottiKhan" reply="3266" id="3075624"] LOL - I don't remember where I built the SCC and I can't find the planet. I guess I won't be starting anything from wherever that might have been.[/quote] Double click any planet to go to the planet screen and then start hitting X to cycle through your planets, just keep your eyes peeled for the SCC. Shouldn't take too long. :) I'm going to try that terran build as my next game, might take me a while th

I'm looking forward to seeing how that goes mate. I'm still working through my epic military game atm, but them i'll start a Terran TA game and see how that fairs as well. Will post score breakdowns and such when done, but i expect that to be some time away.

You never registered the game with Stardock or on Impulse? If you did all you need is the email you registered to be able to update. I trust you also deleted the Dark Avatar folder in My Games when you reinstalled?

I see Diplo and influence going hand in hand for the terrans, in TA specifically though. I have not tried this, but... Terrans, vanilla, with points in diplo, tech influence and morale. All labs, or close to, rush your tech as usual, get the SCC and get a huge mil advantage, build the MCC and start trading tech for planets, but scout the planets and pick ones in the middle of their empire, and try and get clusters if possible. Make sure said planets have a influence structure on th

[quote who="Mikillah" reply="4" id="3075263"]the only reason i would think it isnt the sound or video drivers (ive done my research and have seen that its a pretty common issue) is that ive played the game just fine for months [/quote] I agree, i certainly wasn't trying to say they were the root of your issue, just pointing out they may need updating, it's easy to forget. And yes, Kryo is still active. If he doesn't drop by in a day or two, maybe pm him. Have
