Reply to Of the Altarians in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

Thanks for the info on my favorite race from DA. Hope it's not a too long wait, or I feel I'm becoming attached to the Arceans meanwhile ;) Manipulating Dark Energy? Sounds like magic. Then gain, according to Clarke's third law: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."

Reply to Absolutely SICK of These CONSTANT Out of Memory Errors! in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Uninstall all virus scanners, firewalls, toolbars, download accellerators and whatever. They all got lots of DLLs which get loaded into every single process. Each taking a good chunk away from the available 2GB.

I found the wiki too outdated, the forums were a better source of information for me.

Reply to What does Neutrality give you? Practicly? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

"We are Grey. We stand between the darkness and the light." If you're evil, the good races will hate you. If you're good, the evil races will hate you. Neutral you're in-between. They won't like you, they won't hate you. Perfect to stay out of harm's way.

The best handheld console is still an ordinary laptop because it runs GC2 ;)

I'd love an option to just disobey the speed limit. I mean what could possibly happen. The UP giving you a speeding ticket?

Reply to Plague cure - easy way to make money in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Even if it's a 100% priority, in my last game it took ages for the AI to research it. It didn't even bother to put 100% spending on research. Industry didn't even take a drop on the graphs until way after when half the population was dead.

It's on purpose. They fully count on someone converting some planets into asteroid fields using a terror star ;)

Reply to Disappearing/inactive Turn button in Beta Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I think I've found out what's causing this. At the end of the colony rush, I set the remaining colony ships on auto explore. After a while the turn button disappeared. By chance I selected one of the colony ships and noticed it had turns left and was trying to go straight through a planet. After moving the Colony ship manually the turn button reappeared and worked happily ever after since.

Reply to Starbase Defenses in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

In my most recent TA game, the Korath had fully developed starbases with about 50/50/50 attack. Taking down those beasts usually would have cost me a few ships. But fortunately I was Arcean ;) Sidenode: Had to turn off my speakers before attacking those. INSANE noise if the gazillion guns of the starbase all fire at the same time.

Reply to Full 3d Maps in Game Ideas GalCiv2 Forums

[quote]Also rather than a cube, why not play the game on/in a 3-d surface/volume of a hypersphere. That is to say that the game area would appear as a sphere which wraps at the edges. Or, give the cat another canary, a more complex topography (can anyone say wormholes and spacial anomalies?) ^^[/quote] What about donut shape? The surface of it has a nice property. Preserves right angles and can be divided into a grid that wraps in every direction. Now take it to th

Reply to I'm a bit confused by Planets in DA. in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

[quote]I'll buy the first two, but tide-locked wouldn't necessarily be a problem for a race with advanced tech. If it was close enough to the star, there would be a narrow but habitable band all around the planet.[/quote] Only if it has no atmosphere. If it had one, there'd be extreme winds. Air heating up and rising on the day side, cold air moving over from night side, hot air going over to night sight, then cooling and falling down.

Reply to cracking sound throughout the game (GC2/GC2DA) in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I got the same problem on my laptop. It happens in almost every game I keep running for a long time and if I Alt-Tab in and out of the game many times. I don't think GC2 is to blame, rather the low quality audio hardware and drivers.
