And to help you to post it here in a nice way i suggest you upload them on [link="http://www.imageshack.us/"]Imageshack[/link] and use the "Thumbnails for forums" link that looks this way: [URL=http://img150.imageshack.us/my.php?image=testingur9.jpg][IMG]http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/3457/testingur9.th.jpg[/IMG][/URL] you just delete both of the "URL"`s and insert the word "link" instead and you set the webaddress in exclamation marks: [link="http://adressofyourpicture.jp

Yesterday i have exchanged 2x256 Meg of PC2700 Ram with 2x512meg pc3200, now having 4x512megs of pc3200 RAM, not slowed down anymore. I tested performance on Immense with cheats, enabled as much planets as possible, as much opponents as possible (masochistic) and used cheats to reveal the map. It took a few seconds but then performance was acceptable, only slight delays (maybe a half second) when i cycle through menus. How much performance drop will i have to await in the later game, if i start

The only thing you can do is play a quasi-hotseat game on one computer. You basically use a cheat to be able to control enemy races as well. So you activate this for another race and when the other race makes it moves you just let it be done by a friend of yours. This way you can play kind of multiplayer games on one computer. BUt basically GCII is not thought to be a multiplayer game. Look at these links to find out how cheats are enabled: [link="https://www.galciv.wikia.com/w

[quote]It would be quite costly for germany seeing as just for UK its £20.International shipping is USD$20. That's quite a bit different from £20.[/quote] Plus customs charges as i told him already. I paid additional 17% of the price for the game. Thats for germany. And one question - if i already ordered TA, paid, downloaded it and would decide to get a CD sent to me - would this be possible if i pay the 20$? Will it then be possible to declare it as a "present", so i do not have

[quote]Does anyone know the shipping cost for germany?[/quote] Ich hab mir die GalCivII Gold Edition von Stardock zuschicken lassen. Ja, es sind 20 Dollar Versand, macht wegen des beschissenen Dollarkurses 12€, aber du darfst noch etwa 17% des Warenwertes (ohne Versandkosten) draufrechnen für Zollgebühren. Bei 30$ also etwa nochmal 3-4€ drauf.

[quote]Lol, i wonder if this guy is a pirate. Not saying you are but many pirates come on and say this on other sites.[/quote] Would i have a metaverse profile if i were one? btw, do YOU have one??!? ;) [quote]Not that Stardock pays much attention to pirates, but that just hands them the game on a silver platter. The archiving functionality works pretty well, and I suspect this will be the method they continue to use.Just like some other popular electronic

[quote]I strongly suggest that everyone with an NVIDIA video card update their drivers to Forceware Version 174.74 or higher (aka 7.15.11). This version of the driver is entirely rebuilt (for GeForce 6, 7, 8 and 9 series cards) with lots of bug fixes.[/quote] I tried to download and install it, it says that no compatible hardware was found and aborted the installation. On Nvidia homepage it is listed as Geforce8/9 driver only

[quote]Not being able to get back into the game is not acceptable. It works here but can you give me your OS and video card so I can try to reproduce that? Also, one thing everyone should be careful to do is if they had the beta, to delete the gc2twilight directory in my documents\my games so that your settings are fresh.[/quote] Same here every time i use alt-tab and then want to get back to the game. debug.err: (btw completely fresh install with formatted hd, clean new w

I thought it would be really cool if you can upload a downloadable copy for owners of the digital version of TotA we can download and burn on a CD by ourselves. The backup option is not as "elegant" as an installable disc version. But i also do not really want to pay 20$ shipping costs for a cd in a paper sleeve. So maybe you can provide owners of TA like me with the ability to download an installer version of TotA to put on physical media by themselves.

[quote]When you launch the game, one of the options is the manual.[/quote] drish311 has stated this before: The options are only available with the TA Launcher. The shortcut created with the installation is a direct link to the game executable. So if i would not have known what TALaunch is (because i know what DALaunch was) i would never have seen the editors. Only a small thing but maybe you can fix the Installation in the next update to create a launcher shortcut, not a game shortcut

[quote]I can create a custom race to play myself, but the "create new opponent" button on the opponent selection screen is greyed out. You're saying your "create new opponent" button is working?[/quote] Oh, sorry. Didnt check that. I have the same problem of course - greyed out opponent button.

I thought to start an immense game, but was wondering if my PC may be too slow. I played gigantic in Dark Avatar and those tended to slow down to the end with wait times when windows needed to be closed etc. Is this improved in TA as well? The new textures use less memory - but does this matter if you are in tactical zoom, not displaying any of them actively? The new galaxy is much bigger than the old one - is the performance acceptable? My system specs are AMD Athlon XP 3200+ 1,5gb

[quote]Hopefully you're noticing the new distributed downloading system that is exclusive to Stardock Central and Impulse. Those of you with ridiculously fast connections who are downloading the expansion pack should be getting extremely fast throughput on the download. Let us know what you think. Is it worth the extra cost (it's expensive for us to run this)? Does it make you more likely to purchase software digitally in the future? Any feedback welcome![/quote] Look at the s
