You're not the only one alone that thinks that. ;) ~SDC~

I'm sure you could recieve any random event in the game happen to you. In fact you might want to try picking 'luck +25%' to see if it helps increase your chance of random events happening to you. ;) ~SDC~
Oh, and I forgot to add... I'm running XP Home ed. with it fully updated as well. ~SDC~
Here's my most recent crash in the game (Logged by SE). NOTE: ALL of my video drivers (video card, DX, etc...) are all updated. This crash happened during loading a saved game. I also have experienced a couple more crashes (they wern't logged by SE) that seem similar, but they happened during gameplay. It always seems to happen when there's too many 'sprites' or things going on in my game. My computer memory is fine. Here are the specs if ya need them: Pentium 4 2
My game is fully updated (as well as my saved games) to ver. 1.03A.57 ~SDC~
I remember mine coming from a space zoo as well. They broke out of the zoo, and really started tearing stuff up. :( ~SDC~
Oh, and btw, if this extra info. helps... It crashes when I was loading a saved game. ~SDC~
Here's the latest crash I got. Logged by SE: (Any remedy is appreciated, thanks) Stardock SmartException Logging Information ------------------------------------------- OS Version : Windows XP Video Card : NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 (Microsoft Corporation) Application Exception code: C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION Crash Addr: 0042D507 01:0002C507 C:\Program Files\Strategy First\Galactic Civilizations\galciv.exe Processor Registers (x86): EAX:CCCCCCCC<b
Well not +1 to all their abilities, just +1 to a RANDOM ability. Hope this helps. :) ~SDC~
Cool, I'm in then. Welcome me aboard! :D :CONGRAT: ~SDC~
Would it be a demonic empire bent on control of everything? :) ~SDC~
It happens to me too, along with trying to destabilize/spy on minor races (it doesnt work :sniff!: ) ~SDC~
Hmmmm, I still need a copy of MOO3, I've been looking forward to it...but I doubt it would break my addiction from GalCiv ;) . ~SDC~
TS = Terror Star ~SDC~
...Hahahaha, okies thanks Zorlond (but I thought copying people was different :notsure: ) And btw, thanks Astromarine for that definition. ~SDC~
If you need a more detailed description of what I did, I can e-mail you. ;) ~SDC~
Gotta love the redundancy on these fourms! LOL ~SDC~
I don't mean to bump this topic back up, but I felt it was necessary especially for ppl who were having lock-up/crashes ...or in my severe case, auto-comp-reset. I downloaded DirectX 9.0a (I had 9.0). And I went to the website that made my video card and updated those drivers as well. Then I went to the device manager, and updated my video card (display drivers). Apparently the problem has been rectified, and I haven't had a single problem with GalCiv since then. (Even after
Wow...that helps me too, cause I thought when something was 'nerfed' that it was taken out completely... While on the topic (sorts) what does imho, imo, however its spelled (i forget, too lazy to look it up either), what does that mean? ~SDC~
The difficulty was beginner, with all AI's (yes, I had all the AI's play) on sub-normal intelligence (and they were set to their default alignments). I played on a small galaxy with loose clusters. Currently I am playing again with the same settings...seems liek I'm not so lucky this time :p . ~SDC~
I just played a game that I won in less than 3 years (via cultural victory). I found it unusual for me to win so fast seeing how I only colonized a good part of the galaxy (small), and the only improvement built was just a soil enrichment on one planet (and my morality was evil). So I am just curious if anyone else experienced this, and I wanted to know how many ppl play games tha are relativley this short. (On another note, the unfortunate thing is that my score was 7 :sniff!:
That's a little redundant, don't you think? :notsure: ~SDC~
Blah....thats what all of this stuff sounds liek. I just think the Chixie Dix...or whatever they are called, are hot, but I would never listen to their music. (I'd disembowl myself before I listened to country LOL ...but thats just my 2 cents). ~SDC~
Ugh, don't remind me of re-boots....im still afraid to play GalCiv because of that re-booting issue. Speaking of which, I just d/led DirectX 9.0a (I had 9.0)...this weekend I'll be doing some extensive testing, blah blah blah, etc... Thanks for the reminder CarilElf ;) (I'll post my results, etc... on the post I had made a while ago...sorry if I took this post a little OT from what it was). ~SDC~
Maybe I'm on crack...but I swore I read in the last update the Battle Hammer was nerfed. :notsure: ~SDC~
