Day 2 observations and feedback in GalCiv IV Feedback GalCiv4 Forums

NICE TO HAVE FEATURES or CHANGES - Add mouse-over tooltips to each setting option in the gameplay settings menu - Define the differences between each difficulty setting, i.e., what changes between easy and normal settings? Tooltip, click or mouseover for the information would be helpful - Add additional NPC images, various personalities seem to have 6+ twin brothers/sisters. Re-using the same NPC for different leader images repeatedly, breaks immersion - Fleet

Reduced the power of the Dreadlords spawned by the Fragile Rift event. Thank you, it was practically a game over when these Epic level space whales appear for someone new to the game

Thank you all for your assistance. Greatly appreciated!

Reply to GalCiv 4 in Galactic Civilizations Series Stardock Forums

I'll give that a shot, thank you. Strangely the version for the non-test install is titled 'beta'. I restarted a new game with just the defaults set, so it's a much smaller game world and it's not crashing. I'll wait a while before attempting a huge game again. Thank you

Thank you for your reply. As shown in the image below, version = Beta_0.92.2832F1a, and set to auto update. is there a version other than this that I could download and use?

GalCiv 4 in Galactic Civilizations Series Stardock Forums

GalCiv 4 crashes at exactly the same step each time the game is started. Clicking 'next turn' crashes the game immediately - Playing on the largest map, with as many enemies AIs as possible, graphics are maxed out at 4k, Sound is disabled in the settings. - I tried uninstalling, purging, and re-installing the game as well as deleting the documents\my games\GalCiv4 folder - Game seems to be complaining about finding a file that's older than expected, and that's after a re-instal

TRON dream possible? in Animated Wallpapers WinCustomize Forums

I'm fairly sure that I'll never see a Dream like this but... Can a Dream be created that has either of the following: 1. Disks being tossed around a digitized room? 2. Lightcycle on the grid riding into the horizon creating a wall behind it These would be absolutely awesome for a dream.

Deskscape install - 1! 2! 3! 4! in DeskScapes Stardock Forums

When attempting to install Deskscapes on Windows 8 Pro + Media Pack I get the following: The install starts, and asks which folder to install to, I choose the default, and then get 4 dialog boxes in series (click ok and you get another). each dialog box is basically empty but is labeled (on the top bar of the box) "1" then "2" then "3" and finally "4".. after clicking ok on the 4th box, the install continues. Everything seems to go ok, and the dreams animate on the pre

Value of being a subscriber? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Greetings, I was a subscriber for over a year, and member since 2002 i believe. I have to say, during this time, I have yet to see any real value of paying Stardock for a subscription. I bought Window blinds and have yet to see anything better than the stock "dragon" theme that's included. Has any other member created anything similar? I believe stardock depends on contributor work too much and should create some 'masterwork' designs in house. Add some value to the subscri

This is one of the better dreams out there. Simple, but looks good and the astroid movement is pretty fluid.. Great job A+

Reply to Dragon Dream by ChaNinja in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

I tried it and thought "um.. It's nice". Over all it's a decent job. The animation is strange. The wings move, but the body is completely static, (illusion of breathing?) The artwork and lighting is definately top notch.. who created the actual artwork? Rating: B

Reply to Red Giant Master Dream in Animated Wallpapers WinCustomize Forums

I bought it, and found it lacking. 1 to 10, I rate it about a 5 and should not have been a 'master level' dream. The sun looks very good but the small orbiting rocks look terrible, and ruin the whole scene. I've purchased all of Master B's dreams, loved all of them except this one.

Reply to LogonStudio Vista Arrives! in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

Please change the 'purchase' link so that it doesn't automatically take you to buying a $50 product... I almost gave up on this app until I searched for the free version. I really wasn't going to pay $50 to put a wallpaper image on my login screen. advertising something, then bundling it as a high priced package is .. to say the least.. annoying.. I don't mind paying 'something' just the sticker-shock overcame me

Reply to High CPU usage with Dream Scene en Deskscapes in Animated Wallpapers WinCustomize Forums

most of the people on here have absolutely no clue what they are talking about. Dreamscene does not 'normally' use anywhere near 40% CPU usage. CPU usage is relative to what your system specs, and the applications / services running on the machine. Dreamscene does NOT add +40% to that.. give me a break.. can't believe some of the stuff I read on here. I've downloaded and used quite a few of the dreams here, alot of them, and the CPU usage on both my desktop & laptop barely budge abo

I don't believe that my purchases were dicounted. I wonder when that discount policy was added. I've been a member for about 3 months I think, or about that. thanks for the info

sorry the for the spam - but as a subscriber to Wincustomize, paid $20 for that too.. I believe that if the price doesn't come down, members should get some kinda discount

Master dreams are too Expensive in Windows Vista WinCustomize Forums

I've purchased two dreams, and I after having them for a while, I won't be buying anymore at almost $10 a pop. I think $3 is more realistic.. I mean think about it.. you buy 10 dreams ( just wallpaper mind you ) and you've just spent about $100 or half the cost of your entire OS... remember, we're talking 'Wallpaper' Just my opinion, but the cost of these dreams really 'REALLY' needs to come down..
