Reply to Fatal Game error. in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

There was a version of NVidia drivers that stripped out support for DirectX 9.0c in Geforce 2 cards so you may want to check the release notes to see if they mention anything like that. It still works on my Geforce2 Ultra with the latest drivers, though. Also, when you update your drivers, you almost always want to uninstall the existing drivers, reboot, and then install the new drivers. If you've already installed your new drivers over the old ones, you may want to try un

Reply to Windows mode - as an option - fantastic. (Plus some difficulties observed) in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Reply to Diagonal Galactic Map in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

The reason that we made the angled view the default one was because you lose a lot of the aesthetic value of a 3D engine when you just have an overhead view. I can make an option for the options window that corresponds to the F1, F2, F3, and F4 keys so that your games will always start in that set angle.

Reply to The definitive GalCiv 2 feedback thread in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

We will be addressing most of those issues. As for #4, culture and borders will be determined by the zone of control as shown by the lines on the main map. I believe that when someone else's ZOC expands to include one of your planets you'll get a warning before it culture flips, like in GC1.

Also the screen scrolls really slow when moving the cursor on the map. is there any way to speed it up on the scrolling of the main map? If you mean the edge scrolling, not currently. I didn't have time to put in an option to change the speed.

Reply to Debris in Ideas GalCiv2 Forums

Well we would probably make it random if it creates a debris anomaly or not. Or it might be better to make it an actual object that can only be salvaged by a salvage ship, and since the AI could also use it, you wouldn't necessarily have to worry about it staying on the map.

Reply to Hardware mouse in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Hmmm...that's weird. Hardware mouse should always works. It just turns off the software mouse, which is the nice pretty image and goes back to using whatever your system cursor is. Can you please send me your debug.err file after messing with the hardware mouse cursor option for awhile? Be sure to include in your e-mail a description of the bug so I know that it's in reference to this issue. [email protected]

Reply to Impressions of GC2 from Beta 1 by a GC1 fan. --- Wow. in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I wasn't able to get in the new shading differences in before this latest update. It should be in the next build. It will be more apparent with these, and we also plan to add icons to show if a tech has been researched and if it is the tech currently being researched.

Reply to Galciv II on linux and standalone installer? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I asked one of the managers and he said that at some point when Gal Civ 2 is released you should be able to get an ISO of the CD, but there's nothing in place right now and the beta will only ever be available through SDC.
