Lockups during game.

September 1, 2003 8:43 AM from

When I first got GalCiv, the game just dropped out to the desktop a fair bit. I got the patch and now it only has the occasional crash but after an hour or so of play, the games graphics lock-up for a couple of seconds but the mouse still moves and the music still plays.

Here is my System
P4 2.412
768MB DDR 333 PC2700 SDRAM
GeForce4ti 4600 Ultra
2 x 40GB Seagate Barracuda HDD
Sound Blaster Audigy.

I run the latest drivers and latest directX.

Damb hard game by the way.

Not to sure if this relates to your problem but others have reported that the game gets it's electrons into a logic knot at the end of a turn. The solution has been to hit enter once and away it goes.
This seems to happen to me if I hit the skip button after hitting turn without moving the ship that has movement points left.

Best of luck.
