does anybody know a good tutorial for making an online forum module? i've been trying to make one for the website of my new mod, "The Bringers of Light" (you can visit the site here [link="http://geocities.com/ddevil212000/modpage"]WWW Link[/link]) any help would be greatly appreciated. -DSep

with scenarios you cant change the races because it's a [U]scenario[/U] all of the settings are supposed to be predefined. If you want you could download GalCiv2Ide from the i-mod-productions website and make your own scenarios with different amounts of players. it's really easy. -DSep

it's probably your computer because i've got the patch and it runs fine

[B]12/27/07[/B] the first beta version of "the bringers of light" for DA, version 0.2.1 is available for download at [B]MY SITE ONLY [/B](for now)!! you can find it here:[link="http://geocities.com/ddevil212000/modpage"]WWW Link[/link] when i get up to the 0.7's i'll start releasing it on the Galactic Civilizations II website. work on the campaign and the ship styles have temporarily been stopped. right now i want to concentrate on other elements such as the races, techs and improve

the top link? all the links with X's are pictures that dont exist anymore and the last one (WWW Link) is to my homepage

you probably have a scratched CD. -Dsep

[quote] First: it might be nice if you could eventually create dual type starbases, eg military/economic, particularly if earlier suggestions regarding introducing more starbase types (morale, research, construction) were to be included. I acknowledge that programming the AI and working around balance issues might be a bit of a problem. [/quote] Through modding you could make modules with a kind of bonus and put it on another starbase. for example: influence modules on an e

[quote]I know that Xeno Propaganda is an available technology for Drengin (and Korath, I think) in the current TA beta. [/quote] i figured that that might be the case- left unfinished in DA and then included in TA. -Dsep

[quote]If you're talking about Twilight of the Arnor, that would be because IT'S NOT FINISHED YET.... [/quote] I'm Talking about DA!! not TA! For example: the omega shipyard, Pain amplifiers, artaficial satellites!!! These things all sound pretty cool and that's why i'm enabling them for my new mod. -Dsep

as we speak i am in the middle of enabling most of these improvements for my new mod "the bringers of light!" But i'm still wondering why?? -Dsep

while looking through the planetary improvements XML file i realized that there were alot of developer notes and ALOT OF UNFINISHED IMPROVEMENTS!! some of them are linked to non-existant techs like "XenoPropaganda" Is this because the developers were lazy or is it for some other reason? i mean it's gotta be kind of easy to just enter the different strings and values for these improvements. then why were they unfinished and left out? -Dsep

i dont know how those links got posted here but ignore them. they were meant for another thread

what are you talking about? be clearer.

the fact of the matter is that they've got bigger ships and probably have better weapons, so your small ships never really get a chance to fight.

i would say cut down on the amount of ships but increase the firepower of the remaining ships

since its not working, here's a link to the picture[link="http://us.share.geocities.com/ddevil212000/bug.bmp"]WWW Link[/link]

if you've got an old version of the game, maybe it doesnt work with vista

[quote]4) AFAIK the game forcibly makes any home system have five planets, so any situation varying from that is likely a bug anyway.[/quote] it's not always a bug. it depends on the map. with a regular one, you're probably right. but with a custom map you can decide on how many planets each system has, so it's possible to have as many (or few) planets in one star system as you want. -Dsep

i agree wit you, yet i'm still trying to work on hulls for my new mod (it's very hard). -Dsep

i like "text pad" best. it works really well and can edit XML with ease. [quote]I also open it after editing it in Internet Explorer to make sure there know mistakes if there is you get a error if you get one you know to go look to see what is wrong some times it is hard to see your error so take your time and try to be careful[/quote] I don't know about you, but considering you only change the values and not the strings themselves, errors shouldn't be a problem. the errors are only
