[quote]I downloaded the "Expanded Universe" but am unsure how to put it in the game. [/quote] How this patch look like? Is it the downloadable 1.2 patch? [quote]Also, I downloaded several events and United Planets occurences people have made, but do not know how to put them in the game.[/quote] Depending of your version of Galciv, there should be a mods/data folder where to put theses files [Message Edited]

It just encourages generating a map, playing a few turns so you can find out where the yellow stars are and then reloading your game from the start so you can act just like the AI does, It could be shorter: in january 2178, save the game, activate cheat code, reveal the map (too see where AI is), get all t

[quote]Sounds like Stardock is doing an evil microsoft thing by making it expensive to buy copies online but not shipping any retail to stores thus forcing people to buy directly from them. [/quote] Well, Strategy First is responsible for the shipping to store, not Stardock. Stardock can't be blamed for shipping delays. [quote]Oh yeah, you think Strategy First is being bad to you, but screwing customers by making them pay $40+ for a game they can get for $10 or under is very, very b

[quote]went slowly to pay off my debt.[/quote] Rushbuying is very rarely a good choice. From what I read, you spend lots of money on ships (constructor ...). Not sure if it is a good choice since it prevents you from researching techs. I am under the impression you play with lots of starbases. You could do that IF you are at 100% spending. If not, having a starbase that increase production but at the cost of lesser spending rate is a tradeoff that need to be carefully envis

[quote]Each turn morale went down a couple points, so I'd knock off a few points of taxation and spending to keep it above 50%, next turn the same thing and again I'd lower taxes and lower spending to compensate, turn after turn after turn until after about 20 turns I was at 0 taxes, my moral was crap, and no way out of the hole. [/quote] If you have problem with moral, try to take some colonists off world (the colony ship is a good tool for this), to reduce population on owercrowed words. I

It isn't only the video card that can be a bootleneck. The CPU can be too. For info, gigantic is 28x28 when tiny is 4x4. So you need CPU when the AI have lots of thing to do (due to the number of planets they have or the fleets that are fighting) [Message Edited]
