Reply to [.51] Autoturn while level up & Research stops in LH Support Elemental Forums

[quote]2. After researching my 1st or 2nd tech the game didn't continue to research and it took me many turns to figure out that it said "No Research". I don't know if the player can choose no research, but this shouldn't happen and the player should be forced to select a tech before the turn is allowed to end.[/quote] Have also had this happen as well. I "think" it's occuring when reloading a save that coincides with finishing a research project, but wi

Reply to [Bug 0.51] AI Magnar Not Collecting Lost Library Goodie Hut in LH Support Elemental Forums

Yea, they definitely ignore too many freebies, though in my current game they are doing a better job of defeating the spawns.

Reply to [Bug 0.51] AI Magnar Not Collecting Lost Library Goodie Hut in LH Support Elemental Forums

It's not just Magnar, and it's not just the libraries. Several times now I've witnessed custom AI faction champs sitting on goodie huts/lairs, without clearing the square.

Reply to Trying to remove custom faction and character in LH Support Elemental Forums

Correction. Not all of the earlier created factions returned, only those with different names. However, sovereigns with the same name did reappear.

Reply to Trying to remove custom faction and character in LH Support Elemental Forums

Well, bugger. Just started up Steam, then started LH, to discover that all of the factions I'd deleted have been added back. This needs fixing.

Reply to Trying to remove custom faction and character in LH Support Elemental Forums

I must agree, this is something I greatly disliked in FE, and had hopes of seeing fixed for LH. Until I read this thread, I had no idea you could delete custom leaders by right clicking, so that is a start, at least.

Reply to Trying to remove custom faction and character in LH Support Elemental Forums

I've just tested this, and you can delete custom factions, by first disabling the cloud save mechanic, then manually deleting them from your MyGames folder. You can also delete custom units and leaders in the same manner. A bit too much aggravation, imo, but it gets the job done. As I only play with custom factions and leaders, I end up with several that don't work out as intended.

Reply to Betrayers - not worth 2 points anymore? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

Agreed. IMO the character and faction traits need reworking, and a few new choices wouldn't be a bad thing, either.

Reply to Fallen Enchantress is still unstable in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

[quote who="Sanati" reply="3" id="3308484"]Been playing a lot of 1.12 and the only crash I've seen is caused by the memory leak related to saving and loading or using Ctrl-N. The game doesn't clear properly when you load a save or create a new map from within a game, and if you do it enough times the game will bog down and eventually crash. If you are reloading a lot, just remember to quit and restart the game every once in a while, how often probably depends on your machine.[/quote]<

Reply to Convince me to buy this game please. in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

FE is worth the investment, both in money, and time. It needs a little TLC, but overall I think it's a game with a lot of potential.

Reply to Fallen Enchantress 1.20 update is on its way in FE Support Elemental Forums

[quote who="baddl" reply="21" id="3308232"]I can only repeat that this is the buggiest game that I've ever played (and I could even add a "by far") and Stardock is the most unresponsive company I know.[/quote] Yea, I gotta interject here; no offense dude, but you must have been very lucky in your choice of games, or pretty new to gaming if FE is the buggiest game you've ever played. As for SD being unresponsive, can't agree with that e

Reply to [Major nuisance] Race flavor text erased when chosing sign in FE Support Elemental Forums

[quote who="Sanati" reply="1" id="3306810"]You can edit the text after creation. Custom factions (and sovs) are stored as fairly easy to read and understand XML files under "Documents/My Games/Fallen Enchantress" (for Vista anyway, probably similar for 7/8). You might have to start a new game to see the changes. I mean the issue you reported should certainly be fixed, but for now there's at least a way to salvage any races inadvertently mucked up by it without recreating them from scratch

Reply to Stupid Q concerning usage of selfmade troop designs in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

[quote who="Kongdej" reply="7" id="3306963"]If you want to be completely rid of a custom units in a game, you will have to locate it in your documents folder and delete it by hand.... (this have always bothered me)[/quote] Agree with this, a lot of my enjoyment comes from creating, and playing with and against, customised factions and units. Streamlining the process for the player would be a good thing, imo.

Cripes, get a room., you two. j/k I hear ya about getting fired up at the OP. After witnessing Brad and co.'s amazing support for several years now, it really chaps my ass to see some putz without a clue talking weak smack.

Chill Marcathonas, I believe that Zippyriver was giving you props for your comment about the DNF devs sitting around playing GC2. I'd respond to the OP, but, my mama always told me tht if ya can't say nuthin' nice, shut the hell up!

Reply to How did you find out about Galactic Civilizations II? in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

First learned about Stardock on the old "Atari" MoO3 forums, where I was following that nightmare's arduous journey into gaming infamy. After a week or so of playing that, I decided to give GC a try, and have never looked back.

Thanks Damoose, now testing.

Reply to The Galactic Diplomats in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

Howdy Diplomats. Just finished my 4th game, using Beta3, Large, abundant everything, fast research, custom race, challenging. Time to step up the difficulty, cuture win in 3 years was too easy. Hope to have game 5 done by Sunday. Edit: Curious, my medals aren't showing up, any ideas?

Reply to Bug in 1.1 Opponent mining nothing in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Saw this same thing in a game I submitted to the MV over the weekend(which was flagged as "cheat codes detected?). I think it was the Torians, they built a mining base near my homeworld, or I may not have noticed it. Suffice to say, there was definitely no resource visible there.

Reply to AI Surrendering in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I'm kinda undecided on it currently. In the game I'm playing now, I got a pretty good start, colonized about a half dozen worlds, and shortly found myself top of the heap, playing with the max allowable civs. I controlled a sizable chunk of space, and was doing about 40% of the research. Once I'd built up a bit of a fleet, I began taking out my neighbors, beginning with the godless Yor, of course. Upon taking a couple of their worlds, they surrendered their remaining ones
