Look at the money, researching techvictory in the second turn and the date. so how much did you edit? Or is it a bad made fake-image? Reading the whole thread FTW! The OP posted a few posts down from his first post and state he used the all tech and money cheats, thus no editing or image trickery would be required.

Well, when you reinstall windows the Security ID (SID) is different even if you use the same CD-Key. I think Stardock marries serial numbers to SID, so this is probably what is causing your issue. Not 100% sure why this would be a problem if your registry was fresh and your directory was completely over-written unless it uses a common files folder to store the check against your SID. Good rule of thumb when reinstalling windows - back up your data, and do a CLEAN (format) install. If you did

So click NEAR them and then click and drag the main window to get to them. Yeah, kinda a pain in the rear workaround, but until they fix the pointer focus it'll have to do. Although I've never personally seen the pointer focus issue. I have clicked turn instead of done, but that was a full blown case of the 'DOHS'.

Hmmm. I didn't have to activate to get the patch or after the patch. Then again, I activated when I first bought the game.

Isn't one month for release patch a bit too soon. Depends on who you talk to. You'll come across one camp that demands bugfixes once a week, and then another camp that likes monthly patches, lastly you'll come across another camp that demands everything be tested six months prior to releasing it as a patch.

I been playing GalCiv2 on a newer laptop and I never had a crash before, not even in v1.0 or any of the beta patches. This is something the vocal minority that post about their crashes needs to realize - many MANY players do not crash. I have never once had a crash while in GalCivII. I *have* run into minor bugs, most of which are display bu

Also i wouldnt care how industrieus you were if you had no military, and i had some. I would attack you. Well, the difference between you doing it and the AI doing it would hopefully be that you'd have ships in key positions and be hitting and taking planets a turn or two later. This would make you more likely to win against someone with a goo

1. Not seeing an explanation of where my military production is coming from when I mouse over the numbers while in planet tile view. This typically happens when I have ongoing social production, and I do see a little black box. (About big enough for one letter, perhaps.) When I have unused social being put towards military, I don't think I've ever seen this issue. About 95% of the time when I have ongoing social prodution I just get the black box. 2.

I think you misunderstood the OP, Marcathonas. They weren't saying they *wanted* max hps to go above max with repair, they're saying they have a high repair and a BUG makes ships go over max hps during the repair phase. Probably doesn't check vs max hps when applying the amount to repair, thus causing the overage. Also, the ships moving out of range thing is another BUG as I know I can right click somewhere and my ship will move out of its

Right click my computer, go down and click properties. From there click the advanced tab. Click the 'performance' button and then click the advanced tab. The bottom field should say 'virtual memory' and there should be a 'change' button to click. Then you specify the minimum/maximum, I'm tryin to recall what a good rule of thumb is on virtual memory. I think double what you have for real RAM, but it's been a while since I messed with my page file.

Using this would be an exploit, but I fail to see how this wouldn't be considered a 'bug'. If you go to create a ship and simply name it the same as an existing ship, it should ask 'overwrite previous version?' in order to keep this from being exploitable.

im playing on a 3 month old $6,000 alienware system ! ! What the hell kind of hardware does $6,000 buy you these days? I could probably get every piece of it from newegg.com for about 1/3 of that price! I hope they pimped your case for that kind of cash.

There is a difference between looking for anomolies and exploring. If you set it to look for anomolies and it found all of them, it will cease moving. Tell it to auto-explore and it will continue to reveal the map to you. Units that are capable of finding anomolies (both PC and player) cheat and know where all the anomolies are when you tell them to auto-find. The fact that it said it could not find any more meant that the areas it hadn't been to y

Download the updates in file format to another machine and transfer them to some kind of medium the laptop can read. The first patches I could d/l in this fashion, I don't think they've made it to where you are *required* to use StarDock for anything other than the betas.

Hmmm. You UK folks should submit to the evil empire that is Wal-Mart and let them build a few million stores near you. They seem to have sucked up most of the initial copies of this game. I couldn't get it from many local retailers here for up to four days past release, and then an employee of the company I had pre-ordered it with let me know he'd seen a copy in Wal-Mart when he was there last. I bought the last one they had on their shelves at the

Oh noes! A beta makes the game act weird! The sky is falling! Seriously, Frogboy, you need to pick about 100 to 200 mature users, make them your beta testers, and not bother releasing them to the public. I know you'll be more testers by releasing it to the public, but you'll also get more retards posting moronic drivel like this. Oh, and OP, RTFPN (read the *beep*ing patch notes). They've deliberately dumbed down the AI on eas
