I am also behind a University proxy server setup.. Stardock Central automatically detects the proxy settings I have defined for Internet Explorer, but Galciv2 doesn't seem to have that ability.. I always get a 'Cannot connect to the internet' message within game when I try connecting to the metaverse. Would be great to have some feedback here if there is a workaround that I can use or if I'll have to wait for Stardock to add this

Carielf I sent you the SDC log that you requested... I haven't tried reinstalling SDC yet. But I'll do that shortly and hopefully it might fix the problem. As stated in my email - my issue seems to be general with SDC, and happens with anything I download on Objectdesktop or TGN... However now someone else has a problem with the Galciv2 install as well?? Hmm..

Woot! Someone heard my prayer! Downloading now. YEAH!! Edit 10 mins later: Crap! SDC has buggered up on me and won't install it! *sigh* I hate it when this happens, Now I have to uninstall SDC, reninstall, update SDC, THEN try and redownload Galciv2 and hope it works... Good news though, Stardocks servers absolutely nailed the download speed - I got top rate for my connection. Edit A further ten minutes later: And I can't uninstall SDC because Windowblinds 5 Beta has an iss

Out of curiosity will this activation system be present in the final release of Galciv2? If so then how will the potential effect of formatting the system and having to reintall the software or the purchase of a new PC over time affect these 'licenses to activate'?

Galciv is setup to support widescreen monitors like you find on some laptops... I see no reason, if you configure the graphics options the right way, that Galciv wouldn't work over dual monitors. Although everything is always a little hinky in a beta. To make it work you may have to run it in a windowed mode of some sort, as I don't know how dual monitors work. When a program runs 'fullscreen' that's fullscreen on ONE monitor - so to get the spread you desire you may

Yup, I got this problem too. The Survey ship nearly always drives sideways. Funnily enough though I've noticed the behaviour very little in ships I have created as opposed to the ones you begin with. Dunno if that's just happenstance or not... A theory I have is that ships that move only one space a turn will often drive sideways, while ships that can move 2 or more spaces seem to come right and animate correctly, they draw smoothly when they move instead of jerking

I have noticed this issue as well... I believe it could be a race relations screen of some sort which pops up - because I swear I am seeing an image of a Drengin with text beside it. But it flashes up briefly then disapears before I can really see it or do anything about it.. and as the above poster said, it also is fairly regularly, like an auto-save dialog. The funny thing is though that anomoly dialogs popup fine. Anything that is a direct result of an a
