[quote]What about those of us who preordered? When do we get to download the beta?[/quote] I don't think you can, I looked at the purchase page and it says under preorder 'Download when released.' ~SDC~
you buy any Stardock program and you become level 3. You buy a Wincustomize subscription and you become level 4.
Delete the discussions.ini file. I've had to do it twice now, first to bring up the Galactic Council and now again for the mepires forum. ~SDC~
This is the wrong forum, this is for the Galactic Civilizations game. Try WC-General or WC-Help. ~SDC~
[quote]nEED " Drengin.net subscripion/serial key" tO dOWNLOAD oK, aBOUT $70US [/quote] It's only about $70 if you don't have Galciv. If you have it you can get a cheaper upgrade version, which is more like $36 I think. ~SDC~
How is that a recruitment ad when you don't havce to be part of an empire to go there? ~SDC~
[quote]Ok im a newbie and i wanted to know a couple of things such as how to join empires, how to get ranks, and some good play tips for a totle newb. Thanks in advance for the help[/quote] I'm not sure what you mean by ranks, if you mean like captain, admiral ect it's based on your metaverse score and how many games you have posted. If you mean citizen, veteren ect. you get promoted by being helpful on the forum, answering questions and such. ~SDC~
Stardock Forums
It didn't need to be asked in two different threads, your first thread is still on the first page too. Someone who knows will answer eventually. ~SDC~
[quote]I am populist and lost control of the senate. How do I get control back? How does one influence them?[/quote] If your empire wide morale drops below 50% you loose control, get it back above that and you'll get it back at the next election. ~SDC~
[quote]I recently had to reinstall everything, so this time I just installed stardock and did all my patching through that. It also claims to be v1.13, but it lacks missiles and Excalibur.[/quote] It's the bonus pack that has these, not one of the patches. ~SDC~
I don't get popups because of a popup blocker, but what you describe really sounds like spyware. I doubt it's the site.
You aren't supposed to get rejection e-mails anymore, the moderators got too much hate mail when people did.
theres monthly degredations, theres also a division of a square root somewhere, I don't know the exact formula. ~SDC~
when will the new system be in effect? I'm not sure when we'll get to this. It's pretty high on the priority list. <i
[quote]2) When you load a game, your influence power does not reflect the power you had when you saved the game. Whole sections of the map come up as 'no overall control'. It isn't until several turns later than you regain your full influence.[/quote] I believe this is intentional because it would take too long to save and load if it did save the influence as it is. ~SDC~
[quote]Can I disable the Minors with it?[/quote] No [quote]Is it compareable to the Civ3-Editor in a way, that you can alter the rules and still play on random Maps?[/quote] Haven't played Civ3 much so not sure, but you can edit some rules. ~SDC~
Did you download the bonus pack? I think you need it to get it. ~SDC~
[quote]Ive been playing with the new beta, i just tried to load a saved game, loaded to 100% then CTD, tried the auto save, same. It hasnt happened all afternoon, so i thought i will 'zip' it up and send it to CariElf, i just looked at the save file in a text editor, my Serial number is bang in the middlle for all to see, is this correct? I dont mind sending things to CariElf, but i know that once the expansion is released there are going to be lots of save files being passed about.[/quote]
[quote]Im sure i read somewhere, that they were going to do a bigger galaxty as well? or was that the one that was in the expanded freebie expansion?[/quote] It depends how old the information you read is, Gigantic is bigger now than it originally was. I don't remember which version it was though that the increase was made, except that I'm pretty sure is was 1.1 or later. ~SDC~
[quote]1.49[b].010 Will supposedly save games, I get the ~4Mb files in the Savegame directory. When I try and load a game however, the progress bar climbs to 100% and then i'm back at the desktop. I tried using WinXP32 and it also exited to desktop with the same save game file from WinXP64.[/quote] It's not your OS, no one (I think) can load games in 1.49. It's one of the fixes that will be in the update. ~SDC~
[quote]Is there any official word about a release time? It looks like today (Thursday) was a bit optimistic.[/quote] They practically never give times before it's released. I can't remember Stardock ever being more specific than the day. ~SDC~
[quote]also, the military expenses cannot be correct. even if the slider is at 0% and i have one planet with 0 ships and no starbases, still i loose nearly all of my income. funny thing is, its not listed when i look at stats. there, the expenses for military are 0. Cari? i hope she reads this....[/quote] Military isn't the only thing with maintence, you could have too many social projects built. ~SDC~ [Message Edited]
The updated beta isn't going to up until tomarrow, and thats only if there isn't a delay. ~SDC~
Yes, I would assume so. But also really you want to get a planet to as high a PQ as possible, and you just can't get a 13 or 14 as high as 15 or above. ~SDC~
[quote]Also you don't say what PQ the planet is(see the sticky), [/quote] [quote]I've got a class 16 planet which has 1% morale no matter what I do[/quote] Actually he did. ~SDC~
