I haven't really been playing lately as work has been keeping me really busy.Working 7 days a week gets you kinda tired and the little time I do get I have other things to take care of.I still try to get by the community every day time permitting.Hopefully at end of month things should be back to normal. I haven't heard from Anton lately and don't know what he's up to either.I will try to post another game this week. I'm also trying to work on a new set of ships but again not much t
eradicus
What link?
Sorry game is doing exactly as it supposed to.On maso aliens wont buy any techs,but will trade other techs,tradegoods,ships etc for techs. On levels other than maso the it would be a bug.
Theres more than one way to skin an alien!!(I meant cat.) [Message Edited]
I want mine to use isometeric views so you can see wheels and side mounted weapons platforms.You can also tell the direction they are going but for this I will need a left and right side view.I have a program that can flip or rotate views as neccessary.
That looks really good.I haven't had any time as of late.Working 7 days a week plus parents just left town.
Kevin out of all my games I have only played a couple that were UNMODDED.I look to keep the repetative events out by having as amany as possible to give each game alittle more randomness.The one anomalous I have was from tech whoring early in game and I had way to many bcs.I have added every single mod from library plus ones that I made.I wouldn't worry to much about 0 scores.I have heard that some are very legit games that something on the code itself caused,not the mods.Some people have 0 scor
So far I've only played 2 trial games.The galaxy is a bit different in that you have to use warp points to go from system to system.Each system is made up of asteroid belts,suns,planets and anomalies that can help or hurt your ships.There are three main types of planets,rock,gas,and ice.Depending on your racial picks determines which type you can colonize.This also goes further by what type of atmosphere each planet has which also limits your expansion on each type of planet. The research is
If you dont have alliance victory checked then get an alliance with the drengin and then switch all trade routes to minors and culture bomb away.
Go to the directory that contains the movies usually galciv/movies.In it you will find all the movies.reame the couple called sf_intro and intro.bik to old and the name.Ex. oldintro.bik and oldsf_intro.bik
The only thing you get addicted to around here is mountain dew or coffee to keep playing one more turn before I go to bed!
Has anyone here ever played Space Empires IV by Shrapnel Games?I have just downloaded the demo version and it has alot more stuff to it than galciv.Based on the trial version game I played both galcive and space empiresw are very similar but space empires is alittle more fleshed out and has a few more abilities like ship design and tactical combat.Just looking for feedback whether game is worth buying.

If you lopk at the diplomatic screen on the minors tab find the one for the fundies.This will give you a rating for their military but not on the graph like the majors.Also instead of getting the majors to fight them then try to buy their starbases that affect either military or influence.Also try buying/trading for ships from the majors.
From what I know the morale only has to do with planet population.If morale at 100% then you get double reproductive rates.anything less is regular reproductive rates.Any ships built on that planet do belong to that planet,along with any constructors sent out to build starbases.I don't know if the cost of starbases gets split across all planets or the one that built and sent it.
Hope to not see any "good steves"showing up,cause then the world is definately ending!
Lord Vader from world wide wrestling?Ooh that was VanVader.Nevermind.
Supposedly makes the hull harder.I think it should raise hitpoints.Something tangible not some calculation in the background.I have also wondered about this and have since quit building the ship improvements as all seem to be the same from whatever planet built on no matter what improvements are there.
Also find his best planets,pq wise and take these first.This will help you crank out the better ships faster and cause him seriuos problems as his best tax planets just was aquired by you.
Stydracos Hey dude.Found another link that has some more detailed instructions about the order of precedence.IOW the order that you need to do things.CDG creations has a couple ppl that do some mods and from time to time I go there to read.Hope this one helps.

What flavor is grand admiral?I was approached by a Drengin and he told me to ask you.
Stydacos On the mods page some pulled the star trek mod thread up and in it about half way down is some help about alpha channels if you use paintshop pro. What programs are you using to do your ships? So far I've tried paint to make the basic bmp but looks very poor.I dont have paint pro but can get it from work. Mike
I believe on the main forums there is a sticky about the star trek mod.
I wonder if Hawaii 5 0 can make his galciv writer program use the merge files portion do what you were asking about the mdl book?
This aspect of the game is hard coded if I'm not mistaken.You can only follow them on minimap and have absolutely no control over them.To bad you can't move their routes somewhere else specially when at war and going thru enemy sectors.
I wish they would give Kramer his own show again.Hes great.
