You do realize this is a game forum right? You've made like three politically themed threads in the past few days.

Reply to Creating Custom Planets in GalCiv 2 in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

I'm confused ... I tried editing the mentioned files, but for some reason Custom Planets for my Custom Civ, the one I use, and my custom opponents. What are the files I need to edit, and how do I need to edit them? (You don't have to reiterate the entire first post, just, do I need to add anything in, edit something already there?) I'm kind of lost here. OKay, I'm able to edit the appearance of the planets, yet the names for the star/other worlds is still the same as my hom

Reply to What do you call your ships? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Mine is pretty straightforward: Tiny - Fighters FT Small - Corvettes/Patrol Boats PB/CV Medium - Frigates FR Large - Destroyers DD Huge - Battleships BB As for equipment, my format is usually Primary Defense/Secondary Defense/Primary Weapons/Secondary Weapons, and then M(x) where the x is the current version of the ship. (Usually Marks 1-5 or so.) For instance, TA BB SPBM M4 is a Terran Alliance battleship that uses Shields as its pri

Reply to I'm curious if anyone has problems with non conquest wins in Strategies GalCiv2 Forums

Funny, I have yet to win a conquest game. I disable Influence victory, because if you go for a conquest win, you usually end up winning via influence sometime during the war with the last civ. Most of my victories are Diplomatic/Alliance, I disable tech victory too. I'm playing on the difficulty setting above normal, usually with 6 civs on the map. Once my military really starts getting turned out, everybody's relationship usually goes to "Close" with me. I'll even attack and conque

Reply to Gigantic maps are not playable in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Have 750MB Ram and have late game out of memory errors on huge maps. I don't even bother trying to play on Gigantic Maps. This is only in DA though, used to play DL without any such slowdowns or problems on Huge. My Paging file is set to about 3.5 gigs too.

but in my normal game I took the Drengin appearance, and in gods I stayed with terrans. it isn't the race but the ship design and as was stated you have to start a new game you have to start a new game to get any upgrades OK now I am lost and confused. I created the design, in gods, before I started the normal game I am in now... and I sa

Influence lines darken and fade a few turns into game in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Hi, I've noticed that a few turns into my games, the influence borders of all races in space darken considerably. Seeing as several of my races use shades of green and blue as their racial colors, this makes their borders almost invisible, and it's hard to tell what's where when two like green or blue border each other. Red and White aren't so bad because they're brighter colors, but this definitely bugs me. I'll try to post some screenshots later, but in the meantime, is thi

Reply to Show off your ship designs 2007! in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I started with a huge hull blank...then using Kyro's Hull Mod I just used jewelry. Is it possible that being Drengin in my normal game and another model set in gods is my problem? You'll have to start a new game to get any new ships to show up. If all you used was Kryo's Mod and jewelry, all you should have to do is research huge. However, if you used a base hull from a specific race style, you will need to use that style to get it to show up in game.

Reply to kenwebb's Omega Shipyards in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Dumb question here, but what exactly do the Omega Mods 2.0 do? If I install them along with Kryo's mod, is this going to mess with my existing designs/templates? Do they do anything other than add new jewelry? Change any gameplay mechanics? etc.

Apparently there's a limit on how many times you can edit your posts ... sorry for the wasted space. :/ Anyhow, like I said, I was going for a more realistic Naval style with these ships. Some in style 1 were inspired by Croc411's ships. Styles 2, 3, and 4 are for my custom races, and so they were built with as few components as possible, as my graphics card sucks. Obviously, more time was spent on some of these than others. If anyone's interested in using these, cannon fodd

Reply to Invisible Ships Crash Game in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I figured it out - for some reason the Heavy Fighters were not appearing in the Create Custom Ship Style screen, so I hadn't set anything for them - now I have a new problem though, I went through and recreated all my custom ship styles to make sure I had something set for all of them, but now all of my custom races keep defaulting to Terran Alliance style, which is the one I altered to make the custom ship styles. (Saved them under different names though, obviously.) Even after I save, as soo

Invisible Ships Crash Game in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I'm playing against four custom opponents on a huge map, and one of them has begun producing invisible ships/fleets of the small/tiny hull size. When I try to attack them, the game will load the combat viewer, and then either the screen will flash gray and black for a few moments while damage is counted up at the bottom as if a battle is occurring, and then crash when I click done, or it will show my ships attacking air, and then crash when I click done. I've already emailed a bug repo
