Reply to Civ 5 Gods and Kings expansion in PC Gaming GalCiv2 Forums

[quote who="AragornV" reply="27" id="3178517"]Yikes! Ahem, so any of you who have purchased the expansion, do you consider it full price material if I'm so so on Civ V?[/quote] I pre-ordered the expansion (at 10% off) and I am very pleased with it (though I haven't yet made it completely through my first game). I think it's definitely worth the full price. But I really like Civ V Vanilla. If you're so-so on Civ V, I really don't know whether it w

Reply to Any plans on converting GC2 for the iPad? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Not knowing anything about the technical changes of such a thing, I would definitely be interested in an iPad version of Gal Civ. In the meanwhile, my favorite iPad game is one that I used to play on a Mac years ago... Spaceward Ho! Not as in depth as MOO or GC2, but it's challenging and fun.

[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="18" id="3103571"]MSWorks isn't really worth the effort. Libré Office is a good one. [/quote] You might also try Open Office. I've tried Libre Office, which, as I understand it, is a different path of the same source as Open Office. But I've found that Libre Office always seems to pause when I begin using it. The delay is only a few seconds but it irritates me. I don't have the same problem wit

Reply to Video card issues in Personal Computing GalCiv2 Forums

I found a way to do it (in Win7), but it's a pain (and come to think of it there has to be a better way): Go to Control Panels > Display > Change Resolution to the desired resolution Click on "Advanced Settings" This should open another control panel with a some tabs. Choose the Intel(R) Graphics and Media Control Panel Under "scaling" choose "maintain aspect ratio" The problem with this is you'd have to do this each time you wanted

Reply to Video card issues in Personal Computing GalCiv2 Forums

I think that you are talking about playing in non-widescreen resolutions (i.e. 1024x768) in games that don't support widescreen. In other words, if you want to play in a smaller resolution without the picture stretching out and looking blurry, you have to change the setting using your video driver control panel. In the NVidia control panel you go to Display > Adjust desktop size and position and then apply "no scaling" under the scaling tab. (You could also choose Aspect Ratio, but the

Reply to Hey, I actually like Civ V in PC Gaming GalCiv2 Forums

I actually like Civ V as well. I've played it far more than anything else on Steam--400 hours plus... It's not Civ 4.5, which is not all bad, because there are some things I like better (maybe some of the same things that others hate). I think Civ V is less tedious and more fun in warfare. I like the 1UPT and the auto-embarking units (instead of having to build and load transports). There are some things that I miss from Civ IV, like tech trading, vassal states, the Apos
