Custom Home Systems

from GalCiv3 Forums

Hey there. As far as I can tell nothing has changed with Star System Defs and Planet Defs... and yet, adding a custom home system seems to crash the game on launch. Anyone know why?

PS: Obviously I have setup a mod folder, have a PlanetDefs file (append style) and StarsystemDefs file (Non-Append style, as append style doesn't work for this file both pre and post Crusade).

 

I also tried just taking the Sol system entry in StarsystemDefs, copying it, changing its internal name/display name, and just having it sit right above the Sol System entry. Again, custom home system appears and is selectable and upon launch of a game, you crash.

I have my 54 custom systems from GST working fine. I do it the exact same way you are. The only crash I had was not updating the PlanetArtDefs.xml.
