Don't have any really good advice - but if you need to colonize faster you could buy the ships to colonize faster.

They are listed on page 25 of the manual. Skull and crossbones means: Culturally rebellious. Star systems that are becoming dangerously enthralled with other civilizations will receive this icon. This means that the people are thinking about defecting and that you need to do something about it.

Reply to Gal Civ I vs. Gal Civ II in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

In GalCiv II, you have 6 types of buildings - research, production, food, entertainment, culture, money. All the improvements are just upgrades. In GalCiv I you have more diversity. Fusion Power Plant, Anti-matter Plant, Bank, Exchange, etc. Accomplishes the same but less cookie cutter. I actually felt more limited on the planet construction with GalCiv II. It felt more restricted and cookie cutter than GalCiv I The tech in Gal Civ II is specific to a need. You need A, yo

I just got done with a Galciv 2 game and went back to Galciv 1. I like it better. The graphics in Galciv 2 may be better, but Galciv 1 is just more fun!

Starbase Mod Bug in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Don't know if anyone is still reading these posts, but need help with Starbase Mod. The mod file works upto ID 99 but stops working with ID 100. I can switch the IDs and change the 100 to 99 and the 99 to 100 and it will still just works to 99. I have even deleted and totally re-installed the game, but no luck. I thought it would work to at least the default boodend of 140 and I though I could even have more if I increased the bookend, but right now it stops working at 100. Appreciate any h

Reply to Mods Folder in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I will unable to send the files as requested. The power supply on my computer failed. The service center decided to replace my hard drive without copying the existing data, and not all files were backed up. I no longer have the GalCiv files, plus I must reload the base game, plus redo the modifcations. Made the mistake of trusting the serice center with my hard drive, fortunately most of the data was backed up, but still not all.

Peace Phoenix, I have the standard starbase modules in the Galciv/data directory. I do not have any starbase mods. I do have tech, improvements, and event mods. I will limit this topic to one forum (mods). Thanks for the interest.

Carielf, Thanks for the reply. When I get back into town, I will e-mail the files. Peace Phonex, Even when I start a new game with mods, the star base modules do not work. If a start a new game without any mods, then the starbase modules do work.

I am playing Galciv - the laterst version. I have Altarian Prophecy but wanted to play the basic game. It is in a different directory. I am using a mod that I have used on previous games based on input from the library. I am experiencing two problems that I have never seen before. 1. Disappearing anomalies and other like stuff - annoying but game still playable. 2. Starbase modules do not work - game not playable. I have tried everything to get this to work. Separate direc

Frogboy, I sent the e-mail along with the zipped file of the game. If you start the game, you will have to play about 3 months before you win. I am only at 96% cultural victory, but with 90% military victory and over 50% tech victory I think I won the game. I was wondering if I need to be at 100% cultural before I could submit, by why do I then win at 96%. Everyone, thanks for all the help!! ~SDC~

Ponts, I tried that and it still didn't work. Maybe Frogboy or someone at Galciv can give me a hand. I could e-mail them my game along with my screen name and registration code (if they need it). If it is something to do with AOL, maybe they can fix their upload. AOL is kinda big, I thought they would support connectivity with them. Maybe my game is corrupted? After the first time, I won and got rejected, I now have to play about 3 more months to win again, so I have played about

1. I think in the beginning the number could be based on the sector. Empty secorts can have 1 starbase, Other sectores can have 1 plus the number of planets and resources. Each planet and resource would support the additional economy necessary for more starbases. Each sector could have an economy rating, like influence. The economy rating could bleed into other sectors like influence. As you build your economy/population, adjacent sectors close to your core could have more starbases.

Since I just upgraded my PC so I could play this game and got a free year of AOL, I am not about to change. What I just did is open up stardock, go to the Galciv forum, used the link from Frogboy and registerd Jourin again. Then with IE open through the stardock screen, I won the game again, hit done, but no luck. If somebody has an idea or an answer, I will log back in a couple of hours. I really wanted to upload this game before I upgrade to 1.03. ~SDC~

OK same thing happened, no submission screen. Do I need to do this through stardock? If I am not connected, then hitting done bring up the main menu. When I hit metaverse, it logs me on to AOL and then opens up the Galciv metaverse we site, but still NO submission screen. Freddybear, how do I register with the drenigin key instead of the CD key? Where do I get the drenigin key. An no I am not going to subcrib just to upload my score.
