A lot of the active GC2 modders are at www.i-mod-productions.com/ . They also host some newer mods themselves.

Kinda funny EA decides to do this on a game that mostly appeals to casual gaming masses, soccer moms, etc. People that aren't as likley to pirate it to begin with. Until EA shows this is the norm for all their new games, I would call it a publicity stunt.

[quote who="jacklv" reply="17" id="2111789"]DethAdder/Motti Khan how do you get the round (in my case oval) avi with no border?[/quote] This one I have now came that way, it was one of the many they showed from elemental. Usually though if your border is a solid color it is easy to make it transparent using GIMP or another Image editing program. It can be a little more involved if the border is multicolor but still pretty simple if your familiar with the proggy your using.<

Perimeter; Picked it up for 4.99 I think. After applying the officially released no-DVD patch and removing its Starforce, turned out to be one of the most unique RTSs I've played.

OMG.! I just hit a glitch from hell while playing DL. Playing along all factory, barely staying out of shut down when after a turn change I end up -14431148...bc in debt [e digicons]8C[/e] . I thought it strange I finished the entire Miniturization line in a turn with all factory so I looked at the graphs and my tech shot up to 1.8Million out of nowhere. Have to revert to save to try to salvage the game, but wish I could end it now to see what kind of score that Tech would get me in

Samurye truthfully it's not your fault and shouldn't be your place to have to try hide your threads in some spot that won't cross over. SD kinda forced the migration on us all. Some resisted and complained(I know I did for a while), some left and some just rolled with it. IMO about the two closest forums in themes to should crossover would be GC2 and Sins. Demigod and Elemental are entirely different animals though gaming sites so of some common interest. The only one I am still actively agai

I'm wondering if there isn't an overall tile count in place as opposed to planets. My last DA game had 703 planets in it, yet I was able to pull off higher pop and higher income than a previous DA game that had 764 planets. I wonder if it just all evens out with less, but better planets and nearly the same overall tile count.

Reply to Tyranny of Evil - A Metaverse Empire. in Metaverse GalCiv2 Forums

In the past with DL and DA there was always a range you could expect to get of planets on that setup, (Estimated)DL= 430-475, DA=700-765(later versions). I see no reason TA should be different as far as just having a range you can expect. Though with the nerfing of things like that you never know.
