That sounds like a pretty normal exit, Pants. Yeah... I was wondering about this: "D3D not cleared. 1 counts left." However, SmartException seems to be concentrating on this: Application Exception code: C0000005 ACCESS_VIOLATION Crash Addr: 005857A5 01:001847A5 C:\Program Files\Stardock\TotalGaming\GalCiv2\DarkAvatar\GC2DarkAvatar.exe Doesn't that sound bad? <

I may have a problem with this build. I am developing a mod, so I am in the process of teasting it out. I will get SmartException and report when I have more details, but this is the (weird) endd of my debug.err file: Debug Message: Shutting down sound system. Debug Message: Clearing sound and music handles. Debug Message: WorkAreaBack.png not cleared 1 counts left. Debug Message: GameUninitialize end Debug Message: Device not cleared. 35 counts left.

BTW, I don't know if this is affecting anyone else but reply #6 borks up the thread. Sorry 'bout that!

Not that it makes too much difference or anything, but the next release of my version of "my" abilities mod (MrKorx + the rest of the abilities) has the government ability removed, because it doesn't do anything, according to CariElf's modding guide. D'oh! Jon

The "insurgents", as the liberal TV and newspaper media like to call them, are Islamo Facists supplied and funded by Iran. Listen to intelligent talk radio on AM, sometimes FM, Satellite, and internet. While I enjoy a good "intelligent" (i.e., conservative) talk show, I think you are probaby better off thinking for yourself than buying into either medium wholesale. Specifically, I don't think your characterization of Iraqi insurgents is ent

Ok, I've made the changes, and I am reposting the mod. For some reason, it doesn't work if you put the AbilitiesBonus.xml in the English folder of your mod. If you just put both in the Data folder and not in a subfolder, it works. Thanks for the suggestion MrKorx, and for the input Kryo. Jon

Mr. Korx, Good point! I'll play around with it. Updates are a problem regardless, because if English.str gets changed, we've saddled the user with an obsolete version. Do you think there's a chance I could just alter the relevant parts of English.str, and just put THAT in the mods folder? Thanks! Jon

Well, thanks to the generosity of MrKorx, the abilities mod is being resubmitted. Hopefully it will be approved, and might be up next week.

Many many thanks, Mr. Korx! Uploading now, hopefully it'll be approved by next week. Thanks again, Jon

Because I regard my mod as a mod of MrKorx's mod, I am afraid I cannot distribute the files without his permission (already requested on another thread). If MrKorx will allow, I will either post my version or hand over the files to him for posting.

(a little off topic) Shadow Hawk, I wanted to contact you privately, but your account does not permit e-mail. I recently completed a political parties mod, which added 20 new parties, and incorporated several previously created ones, including yours. I tested them all, and tweaked some values.

Kryo, Your account won't permit e-mail, so I guess I have to do this publically. 1) I am very very sorry for my transgression! The whole thing is pretty embarrassing, and I appreciate your patience. My only defense it that I have a lot of other things to do in the "work" category, and so sometimes I don't quite pay attention to details in the "entertainment" category. I certainly never meant to misapprorpiate your work! 2) I am formally requesting permission to impleme

MrKorx, I wanted to contact you, but you're profile won't accept e-mails. I've been working on an update of your mod, and I need your permission to post it. Ok, actually, I already posted it, and Kryo pointed out how big a no-no that was, so I took it down. Sorry about that! The new version also implements the colonizing abilities, Government, and Interest Rates, has the latest new english.str and abilitiesbonus.xml files (your current version uses older version), and incorpora

My bad for not paying attention. I will pull the mods immediately, and seek permission. Thanks, Jon

Brian, Download MrKorx's Logistics and Miniaturization Mod, and see what he did. Just don't use his files... his files are from a MUCH older version of the game. Anyway, this is what I did, and it has worked wonderfully. Jon

This week I uploaded three new mods to the Library. One was published for just a few minutes before I found a bug, the others have yet to make it up. It seems that new mods like to go up on Monday, but I won't have much time this week, so I am pre-announcing the mods now. I wish I could take credit for these, but all three are updates and expansions of other people's mods. I hope the folks involved will forgive my rampaging through their work (I have credited everyone involved). MOD 1:

"Tesla Snake." Ahhh, these are what I name 'Widowmaker', for obvious reasons. Me like! Another supercool name is "Hellbender." I didn't make this up, it is the common name of a species of giant salamander from the Appalachians. BTW; In case anyone needs cool names in a hurry, I've been using British battleship names recently. The Battle of Jutland order of battle has a very good selection. There is a copy

Seems Stardock never really fixed this, they tried with GCII but couldent seem to crack it, very frustrating when your machine has loads of memory and others with little memory have no problems, shows there is a real big problem somewhere in the code which I'm very surprised hasent been fixed yet. Have you ever programmed? Even a very simple program can become so complex that figuring bugs out can take days. I just spent a week getting a #^$@&#$@* 100 or

Could this be a MetaVerse-onl issue. I always play on Gigantic maps... I only have 800-odd mb RAM. I do have a 2 gb pagefile, but even when it was 700 mb I didn't have this problem. And my machine is OLD!
