*SIGH* IF You had noticed!!!! It was REQUESTED That this info NOT be public... Sorry galciv devs, from now on I'll contact you folks directly with these kinds of sensitive items. :( NEXT TIME A DEV ASKS THAT WE NOT PUBLISH THIS STUFF, PLEASE ABIDE BY THEIR REQUESTS!!!!!!!!! P.S. Thrull, a 500% PQ party REALLY REALLY unbalances the game! While it may be fun to MESS with... it's just not right. I HOPE that the devs are able to modify the metaverse to

Ok, a mod FAQ has been mentioned. :) Anyone got a URL? Or is it on the CD docs? ~SDC~
GOOD! I was going to suggest that while I WILL miss making a party that has PQ of 200% (LMAO) I'd rather see them capped. Please cap the party itself though. This way, I can then go and select the extra race options I want. Maybe cap em to the same starting levels as you have choices for the race options.
I thought I read in the docs that there was a way to start a vote in game to call a UP meeting.
Ok, well, if you look at my score, you'll see I submitted one game. I just finished my second game. This time, I was using my cheat political party! I HOPE that the devs are able to detect that it had a new political party and therefore, this mod isn't sanctioned and QED, this is a cheat score. (Yes, I have NO problems at all with it being zeroed out. I WANT that to happen!)
hehe, define illegitimately modified. :) I'd HOPE something like this would be considered... NOTE: you CAN create a new political party. IE NOT modify an existing one. It's just like any other mod. Until I get word from the devs here on it, I'm not going to describe how to do it. I DO have to admit though, seeing a planet class of over 100 was REALLY REALLY funny!
Hehe... umm yeah, I GUESS this is a bug. :) IF you have a new political party that provides bonuses to 23 or 24 abilities, when you go to change to the senate voting screen and then have your political party win, GC crashes. Not sure how important this is since anyone using a political party like that is cheating already anyway!!!! :)
Ok, was playing around today and figured out all but 4 of the abilities a political party can modify. Got two questions: 1) Stardock, do you folks want that list public? (You can very EASILY cheat using a new political party!) 2) What do the following abilities mean: Interest Rates. (I assume that means a lowering of interest rates charged to you).

OK, I figured out how to make new polical parties. As an aside, modifying my planet quality percentage to 1000% was amusing. Hehe... planet qualities of 168 LOL (NO LIE!!!!) was QUITE funny. Of course, this means that I would have been able to colonize ANY planet I wanted of quality 2 or better! SOO does the metaverse score INCLUDE the political party in it's report so that you can look at those things? Also, as I have figured out almost all of the different abilities a political
OMG you guys are cracking me up here!!! LOL
Yup! Just started my first game of it... and hey.. it worked! LMAO.... AHHH I anticipate LOOONG hours ahead :D Thanks again Stardock folks! GREAT GAME!!!!!
WWOOOHOOO THANK YOU STARDOCK then!!! This WILL work under VMWare then! /me whips my brow!
Ok, question... does GalCiv require Direct 3D or DirectDraw? Please don't tell me directx, that doesn't help. :D
