Q. You guys are not trying to load a saved game up from before a patch update are you? If so .... dont as it will cause a CTD. If you have implimented a patch update then start a fresh game, do not reload an old one. This has, as far as i can remember, been the rule of thumb on GC1 & 2 upgrades. May be wrong on this but try and see. If its your first game and it is still crashing please be patient help is on its way <img src="http://images.s
Not sure on this build of the Metaverse as to how the points are calculated. I am sure once all the 'hiccups' have been ironed out of the system the nice people at Stardock will let us know
Can't seem to get them past friendly until I smash a few heads and build up my military substancially. Try BC's that swings em round to your way of thinking
Try pressing F12 in Opera and switch to IE view. Works for me DG
Ok as a common rule dont upgrade Galciv II until you finish the current game you are playing. Most of the upgrades are fine to integrate, however since the days of GC1 there have been more errors than not if you upgrade and then try loading a saved game. You should be fine to start a new game, save and then reload that. Might be an idea to test this as if that doesnt work then you will need further technical advise.. DG
Metaverse is down at present time. i believe it is being worked on as soon as possible. Please be patient
You need to get them to 'Close'. (Hint) Wont happen unless you are trading with them as well!
Hi Try here: - https://www.galciv2.com/Journals.aspx?AID=104908
Draginol I would just like to say you guys have done a hell of a good job on GCII. As a member from the begining of GCI (windows version ) i have seen the amount of effort and time you have put into the past game and are continuing to pour into this one too. Whilst there are aspects of the game i dont exactly like (ship design screen not scrolling for instance) the majority of the game is outs
HI all With this forum becoming less and less used i figured that there may still be a few people out there that have just purchased this game, are returning to it, or just have a technical issue. If you fall into the above criteria it can be very frustrating posting a message here and not hearing a response for a couple of days or so because we are all at the Galciv II forums . So to make things faster for you, if you
Nice idea but not sure if making it more like MoO2 is a good idea for copywright reasons
Try going into 'options' and disabling the Anti-Aliasing. that should do the trick for you!
The Metaverse is currently down for maintenance should be back soon we hope
Ok here goes 1) Portrait = 265x265 png 2) Logo = 128x128 png 3&4) Click on my account at top of page, then images and the info is there for you. Images will be resized automatically but it is better if you do it first. If you are looking for a quick resize program try Irfanview (http://www.irfanview.com/) as it is so simple it hurts <im
We really are going to have to have a 'Spot the Frog' competition soon LOL Love the frog in your posts Frogboy Nice review too
Fonts used in the game are : - ARLRDBD.ttf BankGthd.ttf They can be found in C:\Program Files\Stardock\TotalGaming\GalCiv2\Fonts. If they are not running correctly try loading htem into windows manually bu copying them into the windows/fonts folder.
Indeed I only use Screenshot utility as i am too lazy to Alt+Tab out of the game each time i want a screenie , SU also sits in your sys tray and can be activated at any time without having to open up a program first. Handy if you want a quick screenshot taken.
One fix i found to not get the ships back again if i am playing a different race is to take the saved ship dsigns in my games\galciv2\metaverse\ships, or my games\galciv2\ships folder and move them into a differnt location with the race name as a header for the folder. That way if i am playing as the humans one round and the drengin the next i can easily move the custom ships out of the GCII folders for the Humans and in for the Drengins <img src="http
The easiest way to capture a screenie is to press the PrtScn button and then Alt-Tab out of the game and open up an image editor (I use Irfanview as its quick, easy and good) and paste the saved image. PrtScn saves the image to the clipboard. As for third party programs, i am using Screenshot Utility (http://www.screenshot-utility.com) which comes with a 30 day trial ($20 to register). This program can be configured to take an image with a pre-defined hotkey combination and also save
Hi Simplicity2 These have all been noted before but it is good to see people like yourself who obviously enjoy the game come up with some ready fixes for the problems found Keep up the good work and enjoy the game <img src="http://images.stardock.com
Never had them show up on the main screen, however i have had them show every time on the colony info screen (the one where your denziens tell you how much you suck at being their leader ).
I believe that it is lost as you do not get the chance to switch the prodution over it just stops and all money spent on it is lost too. Thats why you need to pool your resources together when you build a Galactic Achievement
1. Just take a fully loaded battlecruiser and park it on the square that has their homeworld parked on it. I find that having an alien race turn up and sit a bloody great battlecruiser in your own front yard tends to move them into declaring war on you LOL If not hit them with everything you have.. Hard and fast
Not sure about the deletion thing but try emailing [email protected] about the empire deletion. The other guy to speak to is Andrew who is on #galciv most of the time ove at irc.stardock.com. Sorry i couldnt help more DG
