I think it is humerous when people moan and complain about a patch from you guys messing up their games....MOST NORMAL game companies would say "hey we will get to it" and a month later, they release a patch(maybe). With Stardock it is like there are robot minions working on patches 24/7, and they are beaten severely and made to
My save/load games are still a bit slow. I previously had those 2 files that were posted (galciv2.exe and lib30.dll) that were designed to speed up the process. I went ahead and reverted back to those 2 files after I patched, and they DO help a LOT. Can anyone tell me if this is ok? Will I still get all of the other faetures of 1.11 over 1.1 using these 2 files? Thanks

here is the link for the files btw https://forums.galciv2.com/?ForumID=162&AID=115094#896594

Last night I used those files to help with mem probs and save game speed increases. They worked GREAT. Tonight I upgraded to the new 1.1b but my saves are very slow again. I did alos have a crash. Should I go back to those galciv2.exe and lib30.dll files? Are they ok to use with the new patch? If I do, will my existing 1.1b saved game work ok with them? Thx a bunch

I changed those files and the save times are great.
If by MoM you mean Master of Magic, I would literally cry if that game became available. Master of Magic is my favorite video game of all time. I believe activision had the rights but they abandoned the project due to financial difficulties. (I could be wrong though, I am just going by my limited memory, in my ancient age ~~~~ )

I just wanted to extend a thoughtfull appreciation to the developers. You guys have created an awesome game that has given me a great playing experience. I also want to thank you for your responsiveness to our concerns. Many games have been developed and just left the gaming community out in the cold. Not you guys. Cari, thank you for your emails. I enjoyed reading your article. Brad, thank you for your timely responses on the forum. You guys ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would like to see slider bars to set my spending on the colony screen, rather than the focus buttons. or even better BOTH I like flexibilty.
Ok here is my problem about updating. When I search for a driver for my integrated video card it asks what operating system I have. Well according to "my computer" I have Windows XP Media Edition 2002 service pack 2 ". Well, I often only see the choices are: Media Edition 2005, 2006 or just Windows XP . Which of these do I choose? It is media edition BUT it says 2002. Does my windows upgrade convert it to the latest (2006)? I would appreciate your clarifying this with me.
I have gotten 2 crashes in a row. What happens is my video goes blank and I have no choice but to reboot. The first time it happened when I rebooted my resolution was changed to 800x600, so I had to redo all of my desktop icons. Here is the report from the last crash. Please help if you can.

OK I played for a while last night and it ran smooth, but it's early. It is definately a memory situation. Are the settings I used for virtual memory adequate? (2688 - 5376) Should I make them higher? Thanks, and I am sorry about my frustration. Hopefully this problem will be resolved, because this is an awesome and wonderful game that I truly love. Also, thank you devs for being so responsive to us and truly trying
Oldstatesman: Well I"ll give it a shot, but my patience will be quite limited. (just being honest) MarthDaul: How do you do that? (nice name btw...thought you would get that one by me didn't ya ```` )
I have always tried to be positive and helpful when I have posted on this forum. Any criticisms I have made have been constructive. Unfortunately, I cannot enjoy this game any longer, even though I love it so much. It has a fatal flaw. This game slows to a crawl once I am no more than midway through the game. This is happened very badly on a large sized map I was playing, so I thought I'd try a medium (5x5) map. Same result.
I have noticed when I invade an AI planet it will often have mulitple starports. Is there any advantage to having more than one on a planet? PS I wouls also like to know how to transport citizens from one of my planets to another, if that is possible. THX!!
I have a jpeg image I would like to use for my race portrait. Can someone please tell me or direct me where I can learn how to do this? Thank you.
Oh yes, I see it DOH!
I have seen that some of the items can only be built by 1 race, then no other race can have them. Is there a list of these somewhere so I'll know what they are? thx
I would like to also add to your post a request that instead of those focus buttons we be given slider bars up ther so we can more manipulate individual planets, like we can on the domestic screen which impacts all planets.
OK I see what I need to do. You attack the planet with an attack ship. Didn't know that. Here is my log (hope I did it right): Debug Message: Version v1.1 BETA-2A last updated on: Thu Mar 30 21:37:53 2006 Debug Message: Could not find a TGN Serial No. Debug Message: *********DXDiag info follows.********* System Info Time: 4/12/2006, 06:36:27 DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904) Machine
OK So I need to upgrade apparently. Im pretty sure I am using the 1.1 beta. Will my saved games still work? Also, I believe there WAS a shield, but I saw NO ships. What do you do if there is a shield to see and then subsequently attack the ships? Thank you SO much and I will look at the file and post the info when I get home. <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smiles/BigSmile.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmiddl
The first thing was I built a construction ship in 2 different places. Whenever I tried to build a starbase, the game crashed with both of the ships. This happened with both of them continuously. I was able to only use them for upgrades on existing stabases. The next thing was I was unable to attack a planet. 1) I had researched planetary invasion and was researching planet bombardment. 2) I had built a freightor class ship

Noone : yes the box is checked. Mooncusser: Thank you for your kind support. Dev Team : This game is truly remarkable, and I salute you for your magnificent work. I also appreciate the resposiveness to our suggestions. PS. Sorry to post an issue that was already being adressed.
Will my current game be playable after the patch release after I upgrade? and PLEASE fix shipbuilding.
