I luv the free camera mode in the combat viewer where you can swing the camera around the action BUT I was wondering if it would be possible to get a mouse wheel zoom option so you could pan in and out while centered on various targets. Also, I know the intention was to update or modernize the ground assault graphic but I find the new animation quite boring (the older, out-dated animation was at least fun to watch (maybe its just me). Great game BTW.

How do you get to the editors??? I do not get the launch gadget but rather the main menu whenever I launch the desktop shortcut icon. I cannot find there editors anywhere.

I've been playin GC from the very beginning and marvel at how it continues to evolve. I just bought the TA beta 6b or whatever downlaod and gave it a couple of games. It is as wonderful as ever but I haven't really noticed a BIG difference b/w this and DA. I know the tech trees are all race customized but I found that effect to be largely homogenized later game due to extensive trading between races. Are their race-specific techs that others cannot acquire by any means (buying, stealin

I've played a variety of 4X games over the years and I find the key to enjoyment in just that - variety. SOTS had a rocky start but with the patch and addition of Born of Blood (BOB) expansion has matured into quite an interesting game once you get used to it. I find myself playing GalCiv2, SOTS-BOB, and SOASE (all 4X variants) for different reasons and enjoying all of them. As far as good games go - the more the better. I would recommend you play SOTS-BOB as well as the others.

I love this mod but I have one question. I find the red triangle placement indicators to be so large and become so numerous that I can hardly see my design buried in all those hardpoint sites. Is there anyway you can omit or minimize the size of all those placement markers??? THANKS!

Problem: want the expansion on my home computer but unwilling to download it via dialup modem Solution: download it at work via T1 line and then transport home for install Question: can you do this? I seem to remember that when purchasing via download, you could only install/play on the same machine used for the download Can anyone clarify this? THANX

One thing I've been disappointed by in GC II is the lack of morality checks and random events so endearing in GC I. I can understand the lack of anomalies given the large number of races competing for their discovery. But I have played through two entire games (medium maps) and have had only one morality check and zero random events. Is anyone else having this problem. Is there anyway to modulate the frequency of checks/events. <img src="smiles/Laugh.

OK - I'm logged in and registered (gc2 website). I go to the download tab and try to get 1.0X or whatever and get the following message: Error 4: Invalid Serial Number. What's Up???

Someone enlighten me please. Whenever I attempt custom ship design - no matter how careful I am - my add-ons always end up sideways, backwards, upside down, etc. I cannot seem to understand how you confirm orientation when approaching a hardpoint. Should you zoom? View top down? Also, when you want to duplicate the same weapon or item at multilple hardpoints, how do you get them all the same size - is there a copy/paste mechanism? Please Help!! <img src="smiles/Gasp.gif" border=0 ALIGN="absmi

I pre-ordered ages ago and paid for the disk copy shipment. In lieu of the 2/21 retail date, when do the hardcopy pre-orders ship and from where do they ship. Thanks (Can't wait!) Humane

OK - first I can't get the GC2 icon under the games tab when logged onto the latest version of stardock. Today, I'm prompted to upgrade to a yet newer version of Stardock (which I do) and now cannot even log onto stardock. WOW! Fifty dollars well-spent. If this is the future of download gaming, please point me to the nearest Gamestop.

Still having the problem whereby I log onto stardock games at work and see the GC2 icon just fine but when I log on with my home machine I do not see the GC2 icon (despite the fact that I am a registered beta user).

Re the laptop, no but I hope when the final game comes out it can be installed from disc or are you folks going to require an activation step ala Steam (yuck).

Here's the problem 1. I successfully download GC2 beta at work using our high speed connection. 2. I try to move it to my home desktop (dial-up) but I get an error message saying it does not accept the machines ID 3. I try to download another copy to my home desktop via dialup but the GC2 icon does not appear under the games tab despite my having registered my beta account 4. also, I would like to transfer the game to my non-internet connected laptop
