[quote]Hi! This seems like yet another fairy tale You need to remember the game changed A LOT. Those "fairy tales" were real games at some point in that history. There's also the game difficulty level. I've seen posts of faily new players bragging about things I know don't work at maso+ level most of the time. So before you cast another "baron Münchausen" accusation, please ask two things: what game version? What difficulty level? When you'll

Curious about what the T.A. expansion will do for D.A. in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

Hey guys, I bought D.A. and never did upgrade (still on 1.5) - figured I'd wait for T.A. to come out. I can't imagine going back to D.A. after I get T.A., but I'm curious about something: When I install T.A. - is it going to automatically upgrade my D.A. from 1.5 to the newest? Or is the T.A. EXP simply going to make it's own folder/etc just like D.A. did to the vanilla GalCiv? Thks a lot people, Chr*s

Reply to What would you pay good money for in an expansion? (The unofficial inquiry) in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Afternoon guys, I apologize in advance if this has already been suggested (surely, it has)... What I would LOVE to see in GalCivII would be an option to take to my ships during the fightscenes just like one would in a Flight Sim. I think this is how it should work: A. basically give the player the option to have the fight pan out in the normal fashion as the game is played now or B. give the player the option to jump into the fighter of his c

Reply to HUGE Morale question in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

[quote] Basically, what I'm getting from this is that I need to mod a morale building to have a crazy positive percentage. I'm assuming this is an easy task. I printed out all of the 'how to mod stuff' guides. I guess I need to look at the 'make a custom structure for a specific race' guide?.... yea, it is really easy. if you want to keep the other AI from getting at it, here's what i suggest. create a new tech, and make its pre-req "impossible tec

[quote] One thing that I did differently in my latest game was instead of conquering planets in my first war I convinced my first opponent to 'give' me (using high levels of diplomacy and military rating) 30 of his planets with pop already established.[/quote] Pardon me for sounding like an a**, but what?????????? Dude, I don't see how in the world you could get 3+ planets, much less 30 (lol). In every late game I've played w/ALL the Diplomacy techs teched up, I could

Reply to HUGE Morale question in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

WOW :D THKS for all the indepth responses, guys.... I sure do appreciate it and now things are making more sense. In regards to the "planets can only hold so many people because of space issue" - I understand that concept and it makes sense, BUT: Not only did I give my custom Yor race a 500% to Home Planet, I also gave a 300% bonus to 'Planet Quality', so my planets have LOTS and LOTS of available squares... that should cover that issue in my opinion.

Reply to HUGE Morale question in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

Imgaine having a 300% bonus to Planet Quality.... ;) With ALL that extra room, I'm basically dedicating about 60-70% of my planets to be 'money makers'.... nothing but VCRs, Farms, and sh**loads of Banks (I never go up to Trading Centers... don't like the extra cost). You're right though, I was making SO much money before I hit 20 bill on my planets. Even with the 300% bonus to Morale, how is the game making my morale so low past 20 bill on the planets.... the 300% b

Reply to HUGE Morale question in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

Great questions: Yes, I'm going over the 20 billion mark so I can make lots and lots of money - I thought that was the darn point of the game... in order to sustain badass navies.... ESPECIALLY if you're playing a small galaxy w/hardly any planets... I think the player 'needs' to try to have as big a pop as possible on ALL of his planets to maximize income in order to sustain more powerful and larger navies. 2nd question: yes, all of my planets are going haywire in the modified

HUGE Morale question in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

Good evening everyone, After about 3 months now: I'm considering myself an avid player of this game. I have the basics downpat, and am pretty decent overall I would say. The ONLY thing I'm still not understanding is the morale of this game. Recently, I made a custom version of the Yor that has rediculous stats. I simply edited the custom .xml file by changing all the property values to be positive in one way or another - all purely for fun and to see if I could figure out

Reply to Capital World---really that vital? in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

[quote]Homeworlds do have a use. The Civilization Capital building generates 24 TP of research, 24 MP of manufacturing, a 20% Influence Boost, a 40% Morale Boost and food for 16 Billion people, for no maintainance. That's enormous compared to the Initial Colony building which generates 10 TP of research, 16 MP of manufacturing, 5% Morale, and food for only 6 Billion people, costing 12 bc of maintainance. So that means you can use farm spies or morale spies to invade a colony with relati

Reply to possible to buy planet structures on multiple planets in one shot? in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

[quote]All they need is an upgrade manager. I've posted so many times, and have yet to understand why there isn't more support for it. A prioritized list of what should be upgraded would be a great start. Ideally the answer should be more like the old GC, where you have 3 or 4 different names for governors. Then you assign your planets to one of those govenors. You could have one that is research focused, another for econ, another for production, etc. All it would do is re-orde

[quote] B) more importantly, is there some way i can "buy for all of these planets" where i can either select every planet that i have, or select a series of them. That way, i don't need to click on every single planet and hit the 'buy' button which gets long and annoying[/quote] This should be fairly easy to implement I would think.... and would be VERy beneficial to most players. Make it like when someone groups more than one unit in an RTS, make this the same thing for p

Making a truly "custom" Race by editing some of the games files...... in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

Good morning everyone, I know I know... (why), but please... just let me be a dork for a couple weeks and help me to understand how do I go about editing the files of the game to make my own "mod"? ALL I want to do is simply take a look at one of the races, and willy nilly change values for THEIR buildings/etc... is this an easy venture? The reason I wanna do it is simply for fun.
