1.05 - the network show no newer update available Just upgraded to this version. It is eating my XP Pro system a new a$$hole. Three times the machine has crashed with this message: "Device Failure" and upon reboot, "system recoverd from a serious error". How can I get the the older 1.04X back? Home early and wanted to Play but only got hassels ... YES, all MS XP updates are loaded. (:( (:( (:( (:( (:( (:( (:( (:(
I have even sold off Star Fighters and Corvetts to lowere Maint fees, make friends, and get $$. In my last game, I must have sold 15 ships. That triggered a "Close" relation, which ended the game with an Alliance Victory. :CONGRAT:
There is not reason to push research spending past the Next month level is there? And has 1.05 bugs gotten better? Time to upgrade? Llaamaboy
Are not there a lot of problmes with the new version? :notsure:
I had enough medals to post here I would echo RayChua and say thanks for making the game better and better - it was great at 1.02! :CONGRAT: :CONGRAT:
Not sure anyone mentioned Ultra Drives, a 50% speed bonus for good .. at least I think they are for good only.Also thought I read something in the hyper drive tech which stated that the person who invented the drive would not have been allowed to live in an evil society because of the disabilities... (which allowed him to "think outside the box")

Well there ya go ... the link took me to a MSN area which I need a password to get, and then had the nerve to tell me I did not have permission to view the page after clicking on the first link. :CONGRAT: Will Galciv ever come out in Linux? Or Mac?
[quote]I'm not sure I will ever beat it. The buying star bases strategy is the best idea I have seen. I plan to spend my time at lesser difficulty.[/quote] :) Know what you mean ... I went from 1.02 hard to 1.03 Painful. It was touch and go for a while. With just now upgrading to 1.04, think I will stay at Painful for the next game. ;)
For what it's worth: Speed +2 Bonus Econ +2 Party I have submitted three games, the last one at Normal. All under 1000 points (:( Current game is on Challenging level - Huge - Loose Clusters 100 % Military to build Colony and a few scounts Earth colony ships only loaded 100 mil. Expand, Expand, Expand.

Thanks for the idea!! While I love the game how it is, Im going to try (test) this just for fun! (No I WONT submit the game). LOL
In latest version as updated by StarDock. XP Pro, 786 Ram After playing for a few hours this morning ( and doing well I might add)the srceen went blank as if a system event had kicked on GalCiv to the Task Bar ... well it kept going :( Task manager only showed my clock sync as a running process. (Thank gawd for auto save ! :CONGRAT: ) So the question .... I have added some mods, actually most of them and am wondering if maybe reinstalling and updating the orginal w
Thanks for the replies. After looking at your stats, it looks like: Good - Curture, Tech Wins - stay nice enough and sell lots of levis and movies while fighting off the bad guys. Evil - Hack and slash - military win. **Grunt** pass the red meat... :CONGRAT:
Im passing up a lot of bonuses playing good ... what exactly is gained? :notsure:
Im only on my third game. Just got my head handed to me on a plater two nights ago - put too much on the time payment plan and suffered with a weak econ. In any case, I get the survay ship out early as possible and actually look for the "rocks" because they give ships. In the current game I had a Corvetts before anyone has gotten to research them. With it, I greatly hampered my cloest opponent's growth by attacking every colony ship I could. So far, I have expanded into "his" territory and h
During production cycle, in the upper right color is an x,y location of the first system in the production. To my knowledge, it does not reset as the system changes in the screen. Sure would be nice to know the location of the system when ordering the production.
I agree! I hope StarDock scoops in the $$ for the next installment.

"Why is there this stupid limitation of 16bit? Who uses this color depth nowdays anyway. it should also work in 24 and 32 bit. They are more then capable of displaying all colors from 16nit pallete." No so sure you eyes can tell much difference between the 26 and 24 bit. Until my new machine, I used 16 bit for speed. ;)
Even with the pronouncement of "no stacks", any way of limiting the stacks to like .. of the value of the best ship in the fleet... :notsure: Yes Im new at this and its my first post. (love the game BTW)
I have looked...is there anyway to change my account? :CONGRAT:
