Reply to Extreme Colonization in DA in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

I don't have DA yet, but I very much agree on all three counts, especially the first!

Reply to Cold weather @ Stardock in Off-Topic GalCiv2 Forums

How about -40 in Saskatchewan. And that figure is for both temperature scales

Reply to Enchancing combat without introducing tactical combat in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Well good-bye then. I remember the devs hinting that it *might* be present in the GC3, but with your attitude I hope they never implement it. Some of us like the way the system works right now (although I think some of the suggestions here are a good idea), but I don't want tactical combat - at least not without a major re-working of the tech trees.

Reply to Suggestion: Starbase Invasions in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

It would be very cool, but something tells me this isn't going to make it into the final release of DA Maybe in a later patch. Hopefully!

Sweet, an X3 mod for GalCiv II! Must download...

Reply to Blue screen of death? in Beta Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I don't have the beta, but I'm assuming that we're still supposed to have the newest drivers we can get. Yours are quite old for both the video and sound. Might want to update those, especially the sound, if possible.

Reply to GalCiv II does not run on screens with lower resolution than 1024 x 768 in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

If you're really determined, try creating a new interface with smaller graphics. I haven't tried it, but maybe with some smaller images it will scale better?

Reply to Names of stars repeated in stars.txt in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I seem to remember it having something to do with the name selection algo, but I could be wrong. Might explain why the ones that only appear once get used so rarely, if ever.

Reply to Revenge of the 1000 Arcean Vengeances? in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

I've seen this a couple of times. It's been so bad that I've actually abandoned a couple of games because I was sick of waiting for the AI to finish their turns :/

Reply to Suggestion for additional ship technology in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

This is already available in the strategy map - just use the decommission button. To do it during the actual battle would require tactical combat (ie, you can control your ships) which just isn't going to happen, sorry.

Reply to GalCiv II and Voodoo 5 in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

Yes, it shows a rotating ship. Why don't you just upgrade your card? It's got to be easier than hacking around like this

Reply to Abundant worlds in 1.31 in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

Problem is that the AI can't (at this point) develop their planets as well as a human can (ie: manufacturing planet, research planet). They tend to go with a more generalized approach that, while still working, isn't as powerful as what a human can do. In any case, I do agree that it's better with higher PQ worlds. Anyone know if we can mod this?

Reply to Sins of a solar empire? in PC Gaming GalCiv2 Forums

What I don't get is why they removed the old site... It used to have forums and a trailer, now there's just the one page that I can find

Reply to Defending an Ally's Planets in Dark Avatar GalCiv2 Forums

It would be cool, but I cant count the number of time I've seen the AI fill their planets with ships and then leave them there, never moving them! This also keeps them from building more from that planet. Now imagine what would happen if they tried to help you 'defend' your main shipyard...

Reply to Bonus Tile Multipliers. in Strategies GalCiv2 Forums

Be careful of your inital economy tho, with that many bonus tiles you could easily end up overspending! Very nice planet regardless

Reply to String not found on foreign stats page in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

It is: Choose the custom civ as your own, select randomize for opponents and then enable all of them. They all show up on the map, every single time. I think SD has known about this for a while, but they're haven't patched it for some reason. It is very nice to be able to play against all of those races, and it doesn't cause crashes (at least for me), so hopefully they just fix the string tables.

Reply to GalCiv II: Dark Avatar - civilization alignments in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

No comment on the respective abilities of the alignments, but what Draginol meant was that they're ballanced in numbers: 4 to and alignment (finally!).

Reply to Galactic Civilizations II: Dark Avatar Availability in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

Another expansion for GalCiv I?! Colour me shocked I honestly have no idea how it's going to turn out, but I hope you guys do really well. As much as I don't like digital-only stuff (Steam) it is much more convenient for all, so long as the authentication servers don't disappear. At least you guys will ship hardcopy too <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smiles/Smile.gif" border=0 A

Reply to New must-have features coming to KHSM after DA... in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

Are we going to be able to make arbitrary points rotate? Or are we going to have to rely on the modeler's (you) taste as to which will rotate and which won't? Excellent work either way, I've been waiting for this kind of thing ever since I realized that none of the ship bits moved

Reply to Stardock please Fix this Mod Bug [ 1.31] 1.31.049 in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I like being able to play with all of the races! Note that this isn't the mods fault either: anyone can do it by being the custom race, selecting a random number of opponents and then enabling all of the races. I agree that the string no found errors are annoying however

Reply to Minor glitches... in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

I never noticed the Yor flash until I updated to 1.3. Now I get it constantly - very annoying. Never seen the farm bug those, sorry.

Reply to Everyone using same weapons (still) in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

How many AIs are you playing against? I've noticed that the each race tends to pick a weapon and defence set, and then research those almost exclusivly. That might explain why they've gone beams both times...

Reply to Bug with all Class 0 planets becoming Habitable! in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

All that cheat does is raise the number, not the available tiles. That being said, this sounds like a really cool bug. Do you have your debug and/or save?

Reply to Suspicious Activity on SC Update to GC 1.31 in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

You sure you're using a legit copy of SDC? Could there be a trojan dropper in the wild? I hanve't heard of any, but you never know. That would explain the reboot since there's no reason to have to reboot when updating GalCiv...

Reply to ECONOMIC Bonus Tiles & some extra others in Ideas GalCiv2 Forums

You don't need 700% research or manufacturing either. We still want them though.
