Why dont you just zip up your full install, and get the latest (rubbish-ware) StarDock install, and rape your registry for the GalCiv and SDC settings. [1] Install SDC [2] Copy galciv files [3] copy in old GalCiv and SDC keys [4] Edit registry install location Voila - you can play. I was forced to sort it out due to the incompetence of the SDC coders. >:(

Hmm... don't like this StarDock much. [1] CRC only performed when file is finished downloading. This is extremely inefficient. Can you guess what happens if a 50MB file is corrupt somewhere at the beginning? [2] MSI - ever heard of it? With a little playing with custom actions, it could be a much neater and simpler way of installing and patching the game. Why reinvent the wheel? [3] Any way of fixing corrupt files aside from reinstalling the whole monster? [4]
