What is in the debug.err file? [quote]I did already download Smart Exception, and started it before starting GalCiv, but it hasn´t produced any log.[/quote] It hasn't produced any log (ie no popup telling that SmartException has catching the CTD) or are you unable to locate the log?

[quote]Symptoms: working when reloading an older file, [/quote] don't forget that in later versions, txt files were in the savegame to prevent abuse. So modifying files works only when starting a new game. [quote]One question though... should I put everything in the mods folders or just replace the original ones in the galciv\data\ ?[/quote] It is safer to use the mods folder. So you can still have the orignal files :)

[quote]Starbase modules do not work [/quote] What do you mean? If it is the standard starbase modules, have you the starbase module files (extension .sbmodules) in your Galciv/data directory. If it is modules from a mod, then ypu must have the .sbmodules files in mods/galciv/data directory AND continuous numbering between id used for modules. BTW, there is another thread for bug linked with latest AP and Galciv release.

Reply to Hey Technician, why did you change? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

[quote]Hey Tech, why did you change empires? I'm just curious, just stupid newb curiosity maybe but why did you? [/quote] He went from Canadian Star Federation to diplomat empire since at this time, thediplomat empire was an active empire. But inactivity has struck the Diplomats Empire. So he decides to change to a more active empire.

[quote]Then, you had a Culture +20% improvement to THAT STARBASE[/quote] If you add a cultural improvement, you add a bonus for the sector and the surrounding sector. If you add a mining module on a strabase located on top of an influence ressource, you will increase your empire wide influence bonus.

Reply to metaverse recalc immunity in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

So it seems that recalc will occurs only during one month for a complete year for each user. Seems strange. Maybe they have only found this way to avoid to much computation on all inactive users each time a recalc is done.

After more investigations, I found the files referenced in the various xml files. It is really strange :notsure: Maybe the files haven't the correct date when I have updated Galciv.

Reply to Gal Civ 1.21 and Altarian Prophecy 1.51 in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I have found a problem with the files CoreModules.SBMODULES and bonusmodules.sbmodule in Galciv 1.21: it looks like that, at a time, there were removed from the list of files used by Galciv (I don't remember having removed manually these files but I may be wrong). So I have no longer them in my data directory. Hopefully, I have made a backup of the 1.20 version. So I am able to recover the files. But it is very strange.

Reply to Explanations about some metaverse behaviors in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Jaws has been hit by the recalc and I calculate the value he has. No games were dropped from Jaws record. And I obtain also the correct value for Technician. So it isn't the reason. Maybe the metaverse has a special processing for people that haven't submitted for more than a year.

[quote]In another thread on this forum, someone who hasn't played since about July 2003 noted his score dropped to zero. Sure enough, while he had games listed, his total was zero. How could this be if the maximum aging is 35%? Are games over approx 380-390 days dropping completly?[/quote] If games aren't dropped, he should have 6 614 Mpts. Now if they are dropped, I don't know the limiting day. For Shakkar, the nearest game is 443 days old

[quote]you'll notice that your score will appear to decrease more than if you'd have started submitting 4 games in the 30 day block.. but onlu until your 2-3/week games get into the 290+ days block.. then it'll level to the true 5% aging drop.. this is due to the raw total / squareroot(number of games) = average score * squareroot(number of games). because tthe number of games/block will change from 12 down to 4 which would mean that if you submitted 12 games at 60,000 the equation woul
