A-M-A-Z-I-N-G...but no movies?

from GalCiv2 Forums
Well, I just played my first game today and I must say that the official release is ten-fold better than the BETA. I was worried about getting the same lag issues, but I didn't get any. The game is as smooth as it can possibly get and I really enjoyed some of the tweaks that was done graphically.

My only concern is regarding the movies. I didn't get any...not even the intro movies. Is there an option that I must enable? I searched for it and didn't find anything.

PS - I ordered the CD version of the game and I am wondering when it is being shipped? Are we going to be notified via e-mail when it is shipped?

check if you have the movie files under galciv2\movies\

if not you would need to install the multimedia files from SD

You need to download the movies separately.  In Stardock Central, click on the '+' next to Galactic Civilizations II to display the list of (optional) stuff that you can download.  You should see a Movies folder there.  Click on it and then press the button labeled "Install" (or "Update").
