been doing that T-Man... It wasn't going through even with the firewall and adblocker turned off... hell, i tried turing off any program that seemed non-essential in order to see if they were problems and still nothing... :(

Choice of Race would be nice for the GalCiv expansion (or GalCiv 2... or would it technically be 4? ;p ) I'd rather not have ship customization unless it was made simple like in Ascendancy... Some looks into the Altarian/Human/Precursor mystery... I know Brad had some backstory somewhere and it was sounding pretty interesting, so find a way to incorporate it. I'd also like to see the Diplomacy Aspect evolve more... its amazing already but throw in some events that deal with Race-Poli
if i knew how to put links in these posts i would've but i don't so i didn't so there... actually if anyone does know how to put in a link, could you put it in so that way people can just click instead of copy/paste. ~SDC~
i believe all the trainers are for earlier incarnations of GalCiv and that they don't work with the 1.05 patch. ~SDC~
Not to criticize the people at Stardock... but it seems that the one thing that is really lacking in regards to GalCiv is support for the Metaverse. I've only played 5 games of GalCiv so far but have had 3 problems with submission... all of the stupid things that just required me to update registration or reinstal sdnetlib.dll ... this are stupid errors, if it were the server down that would be one thing but most of these submission problems seem to be minor errors that could be fixed in a few

Chantillary: there is a fleet command... on the right side of the screen there is a 'stacked ship' list... i believe the top button is to fleet and the lower one is to unfleet.... its a small greeninsh button i believe. ~SDC~
i still haven't run into any space monsters... even after encountering the Space Zoo event. ~SDC~
Think of Minor Races as the Third-world countries of the GalCiv Galaxy... but yes, It would be nice if i had the ability to turn them off and on... especially the Carinoids, somehow they always get ahold of trade goods and wonders faster than the Major Races in my games. :notsure: ~SDC~
For anyone who doesn't know about the CDG Forum... go to www.cdgroup.org/forums/site/main/portal.php We have a good deal of mods/events/etc. there to choose from including the ones that Orangebear posted, some of my own, ones by Duglis, and more. It's a good place to find events that aren't up in the GalCiv library and really good if you want to get into event writing and need some constructive criticism (that's why I'm there). ~SDC~
there is some sort of security measure in the Metaverse... if something looks amiss in the game file i believe they have a real person to look it over and double check. So, i'm pretty sure save state hacked games are impossible to submit but if you're just doing it for the fun for personal games it is definitely okay.... just don't try submitting them cause i think your IP can be locked out of Metaverse submissions if you submit too many games that look hacked. ~SDC~

Once again... I like the Red Drengin ship look... think you could do new colors for the other races... make it easier on my eyes to know who is who... not saying that the current colors of all the race's ships are bad but I like a little variation and making their colors bolder/more noticeable/etc. is a good form of variation... Or not... but I just wanted to let you know once again that the Red Drengin ships a cool and I've yet to see anything amiss with them. ~SDC~
The 'Total Route' button isn't a bug or a glitch.... I talked to Cari about this cause i did the same thing. Cari said that the 'Total Route' button was not meant to be included in the current GalCiv and that it was supposed to be included in the expansion. On accident the button slipped through and if you click on it a CTD is caused because the screen it is supposed to link to does not exist in the game. So in essence... the button should not exist and should be treated as if it is not there
Alliances are gotten through the research of the tech 'Alliances' and then you have to get the races to like you more until they are on a 'Close' Relationship (i think). Galactic resources are the odd shaped things floating in space that only constructors can be built on, like the red cone thing and the yellow cylander (sp?). Also, even if you are researching a lot, the other races could be researching the Techs you are not and trading amongst each other.... making it seem that you have fallen
Come on already.... not to sound impatient but i've been trying to submit this game for a day now and would rather not start playing a new game yet as I might forget to resubmit the score once the problem is fixed... ~SDC~
still a no go for me... my submission just won't go through... ~SDC~
i've never been able to shut off a major... clicking on the picture doesn't seem to change anything... unless I'm just not noticing it.
Hey T-Man... it started up again.... Once again I'm unable to submit scores to the Metaverse... they just won't update... tried three times already.... even turned off my Firewall and AdBlockers which were causing the problem last time. ~SDC~
the only problem I have now, and this is only the first instance... in the stats screen for the other races, if i click on 'Total Routes' i get a ctd. I'm currently using 1.05.071 patch. ~SDC~
there a way to link events to recieving items... like the events that give ships? or is that part of the hardcoded stuff? ~SDC~
i have a bug/glitch to mention, last night when a started playing a new game I noticed that at times i was able to trade techs that I had not actually researched and were still on my list of things to research... i wish i had a better example but i'm writing this post long after i had play some and decided not to continue and to delete the save. ~SDC~
i've done a similar method and i've also learned that when near to all of the other races are in debt they will more easily accept you asking them to attack another race. It helps to smooth things out a bit when they do all the killing for you; you know, just in order to get rid of the dissedent races that won't respect you ;) ~SDC~
I could probably rip a flat pic of the Gorn from Starfleet Command Gold... i still got it installed on my comp. No clue where to get the 3D pics from. ~SDC~
[quote]1) Numerous times when I hit the turn button, the button would change to the "clock" but nothing would happen. I could still move around the map and such, so the game hadn't crashed. I ended up just going into the Domestic Policy screen and then the game would continue.[/quote] I've had this happen to me also... i don't mind it though... i just figured that maybe the game was thinking so put up the clock to let me know not to mess with anything while it was their turn.
as of this post i have just turned 21 years of age.... ~SDC~
hmm... my submission doesn't seem to have been approved (or maybe no one even looked at it yet) but i posted it on that other GalCiv forum... check it out there and tell me what you think... remember i'm new to making mods so they may be complete crap. ~SDC~
