Erm, yeah, there is. Have you ever tried? Not even orbital bombardment can take care of a capitol. That's not what I meant. I mean if the AI has built mainly factories on a world they have also placed a Tech Capital building, you can replace the factories with research buildings
And even if the wrong buildings are present when you get it, there is nothing stopping you from replacing them with the correct buildings. So, you can turn the situation around to get the full benefit.
And isn't it also one of the unused abilities? So, it really does nothing, much like Creativity.

And no ship can have 1 movement point. Ships can have any number of movement points you care to assign to them. You could assign a speed of, say, 25, to any hull you want. You would never have to add any engines if you didn't want to. Which would leave all the more room for weapons and defenses. A ship with a speed of 1 wou
Why stop at -2? Give it a -10, or possibly a -20 and stop them dead in their tracks. They'll be held like a roach in a motel.
For one thing, the population will grow faster. More people = more $$$ Especially if you can keep the taxes high as well.
Get up to Research Acadamy, then Xeno Ethics, then NLC earlier than mid-game if you really want to pull ahead. If you get them during the colonizing and early military buildup phases you should be able to pull ahead on everything else pretty quickly. If you rush buy a few Xeno Labs and upgrade them promptly it should not take that long.
Win2k was not an upgrade from 98, it was the upgrade from NT.
It is actually 5000 legions of troops, not merely 5000 troops.
Well, if you are going for a mid-range card, these days you can't do better than the Geforce 6800 GS cards. I have an overclocked version form Evga that works pretty well with this game. It costs round $175.
dale2, what the description describes and how the game operates are two different things.
Although, he is using the the same driver version I am using, so I doubt that is the problem. And if he is using Media Center as I am, they are the latest version. More likely either he is talking about the zoomed out view or it is his MX video card. The MX's don't support many of the graphics features,
All you are required to do is activate it, and that process does not involve giving any personal information. And besides that, 98 is no longer a supported OS at Microsoft, as far as I know. It will not have drivers for the new hardware. So if you do update your machine you will almost certainly have to upgrade the OS as well. New weird software, huh? You mean Vista? That is the next OS that will replace XP, which should ship next year some time. You can either upgrade
Build a machine with a top of the line video card, 3GB of ram, a 7200RPM SATA hard drive with 16MB of cache, and a dual core processor.
I don't think they can steal techs unless they take a planet. I have never noticed them getting that much stronger even if I have much more advanced techs than they have. And there is only one race with an espionage bonus (50%), all the others are set at 0. And that race, the Drath Legion, never is all that strong from what I have seen.
And altering a saved game file is not as easy as editing a .xml file.
The Xeno Farm 3 only needs one Virtual Reality Center and probably a couple stock exchanges to go along with it to keep the morale high enough. I usually try to get as many of the morale boosting trade goods as well, to help out in that regard. And a morale resource nearby is nice, too. As long as it is on a normal tile and not a bonus tile. And as long as it is limited to one per planet. And by not building farms you limit your tax income way too much, as well as limi
And you probably should have the game resolution either match or be smaller than your desktop resolution, especially in windowed mode. It should never be larger, as you have it set now. Right now your game res is set to 1600x1200, while your desktop is set to 1280x1024.
Nope, sorry. Can you replace the video card with something more current?
You might try updating GalCiv2 to 1.11 or the 1.2beta. You are still on the original version and there have been a lot of changes and bug fixes.
There is a progress indicator window in the lower left corner showing how far along you are in getting the currently being researched tech. Notice how many weeks are left for a particular research, then buy several more research buildings. During the next turn that indicator should be reduced by more than one week. If the indicator is very close to showing 100% at the end of a turn, and the next tech is an easy one, like the early defense techs, it is likely that more than
Then it does not work, or it is not implimented. I have experimented with that setting, and the game is no different with it set to 0, 25, 50, 100, or 500. Of course, there was supposed to be a Precursor Library in the game too. That never shows up either because it was disabled by the dev's. So I really wonder about Creativity also. Never have I gotten, say, a random beam weapon when researching another tech line. I often get several techs in a single turn, and this is always di
I do notice one thing about the females posts. They seem to have a better grasp of the English language, and the concepts of grammar and punctuation.
Probably just a hiccup in your system. Did you try loading up the save game to see if you could reproduce the problem?
