This "1.2" reveals as galciv120_update.exe from 24Feb04 16:35 At home I can install SDC, but have only a 28.8 bits/sec connection. In the office we have fast Ethernet, but I may NOT install anything like SDC. I don't think a protection scheme, which forces me to install software & to use a really low speed connection in order to update more than once a year (if ever??), to be more comfortable than the usual "musthave CD in drive". I LIKE GALCIV, but am waiting now

@Walldorf2000 Ich wollte lediglich einen Denkanstoß geben - und unterließ deshalb absichtlich die Übersetzung. @jmforhan I think, it would be more polite to use the more common language English in a thread, which is opened "officially" for support by CariElf and targeted at French & German people. Also it might be more effective for all people, if the american developers of the game can read about the problems directly. Nothing against any "normal" francophone-

Thanks, CariElf, for your sustained & dedicated help! As I see you publishing different (new) "sets of the unmodified english data files" I wonder why ... Do they contain anything else than what one gets in the \DATA folder if he applies the corresponding patch to an galciv-installation with any old (say V1.3 or the first you released) "set of the unmodified english data files" ??? Am I missing something? [Message Edited]

As I descibed in this thread (post #5 & #8) http://www.galciv.com/forum.asp?BID=GF&id=100087 for me the monster crashes went away only by replacing the german text files with the english ones. QUOTE>>>> [...] Ie. without changing monster.mdl. So probably the single reason is monster.ship. The german version doesn't look corrupted, but rather modified.

CariElf, this seems wierd to me: When I got the Bad Request, the link to anomaly.zip worked, while the link to data 1.1.zip malfunc'ed (both alternating 3 times in a row). :) But now ALL IS WELL. :) That's the content of the 'german' monster.ship: //------------------------------------------------------------------------ SHIP SpaceShark //------------------------------------------------------------------------ Name "Raumhai" Model

Thank you a lot CariElf , for this sticky Thread providing access to the unmodified English Data Files. I haven't noticed this thread earlier :( dividing the forum in subforums "problems with downloading, installation, crashes ...", "tips & tricks about playing the game", "suggestions/discussions for new features" etc. would surely help tremendously to follow specific aspects. For me the "crashes when a survey vessel encounters an anomaly" went away by repla

Michael Wieland, da gebe ich dir 100% recht: "dass es für Modern Games eigentlich gar keinen Grund gab, am Spiel herumzupfuschen. Wie zum Beispiel dieser unsägliche CD-Check. Und wo, wenn nicht hier sollte man die Leute vor der deutschen Version warnen? Glaubst du Modern Games würde eine Kritik dazu veröffentlichen?" Ich hab vor 4-5 Monaten mal die MG homepage angeschaut, und beschlossen, daß ich nicht die deutsche Version spielen werde. Dennoch glaube ich, d

Fudi25, instead of downloading hundreds of megabytes ("the whole game"), you need only 1. german CD 2. text files from an old english installation (140Kbyte), carielf gave in the thread 'Bug report for 1.10.072' a link (on joeuser.com) 3. patch1.10 (18Mbyte) to have the latest RUNNING (english) version!

Michael Wieland, was ist daran so schwer zu verstehen? "That strategy involves being responsive to your customers with frequent updates and instead of the game dying out after a couple months, it can keep growing its user base over many months. This keeps sales of the game going for longer. Everyone wins this way -- the developer (us) has happy customers and continued sales over a long period of time." Das bezieht sich doch völlig offensichtlich auf das (englischsprachige)

Natürlich wäre es hilfreich, wenn diejenigen, die weiter oben Probleme beschrieben haben, nun weiter in diesem Faden ihre Ergebnisse bzw.

Thanks a lot, Frogboy, for showing up. Alle mögliche Probleme des Spiels werden generell vom Programm in einer Datei namens "debug.err" (im GalCiv Hauptverzeichnis) aufgezeichnet. Für deutsche Unterstützung und/oder deutsche Patches ist www.galciv.de bzw. www.modern-games.de zuständig. Die verkaufen das deutsche Spiel. For german support and/or german patches is www.galciv.de respectively www.modern-games.de competent. They sell the german game. In

Hi Joeeeeee, ALL the files in the 'data' directory (except prefs.ini, reflecting your personel preferences) contain german texts. You may recover them all. Of course there are no german textversions of 1.1 yet. You can contact the german publisher for any plans or dates: modern-games.de / galciv.de. Good luck. :D On the other hand: The texts sound sometimes as if they are translated by native people whose grandfather had once an german shepherd's dog.:D So I

Es würde aber schon reichen, nach der deutschen Installation und vor dem aktuellen Patch (1.1), alle Files im Ordner 'data' durch die englischen zu ersetzen. Dazu müßte stardock nur die Textfiles (~160 kByte) getrennt verfügbar machen. Glaubt ihr, daß jemand der relevant ist, dies hier lesen kann?! -- It would help A LOT, if stardock would make the english text files downloadable as standalone package. Does anyone belief, that some 'official' c

I try to summarize: When galciv1.1 is patched onto a 'german' installation from CD, it may help, if this installation was fresh (containing no saved games etc.) and/or made to another as the default path. @Darklor "game crashed after a survey ship explored one of the new planetoids" Seems to be the same status as #10 by Citizen shaffer "New games abort whenever a (new) expansion pack anomaly like green bubble or golden red sike ball are being explored or surveyed"
