I don't have TA, only DL & DA. I'm playing DA. The folder DarkAvatar\Gfx\Thumbnails doesn't have any egines in it, but I do find what I am looking for in GalCiv2\Gfx\Thumbnails. I did not find them as I had assumed they would subed in the DarkAvatar folder. Now I should be able to copy/mod them into MyMod\Gfx\Thombnails to use my versions in my mod, correct? Thank You again for all your help MrKorx! :CONGRAT:
I appriciate the help MrKorx, I have worked with the text definitions for the engines in GC2Types.xml, and have looked through ...\Gfx\Models folder. I take it that I am not going to find a seperate image of each engine? I was hoping to find something like "EngineX1.png; Hyperdrive0.png; Hyperdrive1.png etc. I'm guessing these images are bundled into a file. Is there any way to get to them? Thanks again for your help! :D
I can find "Shipcfg folder", and it has ship files like "S13_cruiser.shipcfg" in it. This will be the entire ship with engines. What I am looking for is just the engines alone, before attachment to a ship. Any ideas?
I think I'm being a space cadet here, but I can't find the file I want. I'm playing around with a small mod of my own, and I feel certain I've looked at the file before. What I'm trying to find is the file where the engine models are definied. Such as the Ion Engine uses " EngineX1 " the Impulse Drive uses " Hyperdrive0 ". Isn't there a file that details these models? Or is it just a colection of 3d pictures/models? If 3d pictures, where are t
I bought GC2 DL & DA about a year and a half ago, played for several months and got doing other things. Came back to it a few weeks ago, went to Stardock Central and upgraded the game. It's at 1.80, and Stardock Central says there are no more updates, so I assume I am current. I tend to play with the view backed out until the ships are shown as icons, and the planets as white circles showing quality. The problem is this, the view centers on the next ship with moves, I choose/chi
Ah, Macmatt, just the man I was hoping for! That is the kind of little detail I did not notice. Thanks! I'll try that! :)
Hopefully someone can answer a question for me. I have played other games like GC2 that are "text based" and easy to mod, and I have been reading this forum. I don’t seem to find anyone else that has mentioned this. I haven’t done any major mods, just little tweaks to my game play. I followed Macmatt’s tutorial "How to: Create a Race-specific Tech Tree [DL/DA]" (this is the link <FONT
I called tech support, and my video card wasn't up to specs. Had a new 256 meg card, just never got around to installing it. Put it in and have what appears to be a whole new game! Amazing what a little RAM will do!!!
Haven't seen this in the posts. I bought and downloaded GalCiv Gold this week, Stardock Central shows that all files were downloaded and installed. I am aware of no errors in the installs. I've been playing Dread Lords with no problem, but this morning when I tried to play Dark Avatar, there are no ship pictures, just a white outline. This was for all races and all ship styles in the game setup, and I even started the game and all started normally but only a white outline for my ships. Anyon
