Reply to Galactic Civilizations II concept thread in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Suggestion 1: How about giving selected cities their own 'go to' sticky icon on the main screen. You might like to have A, B and C have a 'go to' icon, where A is the most productive, B is the most researchy (is that a word) and C is the one closest to Race X. In the end game when I have 50 worlds, I don't really mind what my baby planets are doing. But that one PQ 80 planet that I've nurtured through the game, that one counts! Hmm... maybe I should be evil... Sug

Reply to Object Dock - newbie learning the ropes in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I'm more and more getting into Object Dock - love customizing it. I'm interested in upgrading to the Plus version. The major concern for me is that it seems to crash my system on a reasonably regular basis. I've tried hard to narrow down when it crashes and I am not able to replicate any one event. However, I note that crashes tend to be more slightly more frequent when: i) I have WinMX running and I attempt to play partially downloaded mpegs through WinMX ii) I attempt to change th

B'ah... Australians are not ones to use dictionary definitions. We sort of just grunt and moan and pretend we know what each other are talking about Waiting for Galciv and Alt Prophecy icons...

Object Dock - Icons for Stardock games e.g. GalCiv, Altarian Prophecy, Celtic Kings etc.? in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I was punting that games available through Stardock would almost certainly have ObjectDock icons. I don't seem to be able to find such. Do they exist?

Reply to Object Dock - newbie learning the ropes in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I have unzipped the contents of various animaed icon packages into my docklets/animations directory. When I that icon, I get a garbled pic. This happens with all the animations I try. Regarding windows explorer, I've searched my hard-drive and can't quite find a prog with an appropriate sounding title. Where does windows keep explorer (as opposed to internet explorer). <img src="http://imag

Got it. Thanks for the headsup.

Object Dock - newbie learning the ropes in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

1. I'd like to be able to directly 'explore' my hard-drive in the way that 'right click on the START button does things'. Can I make an 'explore' button on the Object dock? 2. How do I use the animation icons? I'd like, for example, to use the animated WinConfigure and Musicmatch icons that I have downloaded but can't seem to get working. I put them in my animations folder and they don't seem to come out. <A HREF="https://www.wincustomize.com/index.asp?Cmd=full&Ne

Hotkey to access overal military, social and research for each planet on one list in Strategies Stardock Forums

Is there such a button? It would be nice to see that Colony X has 23 military production, Colony Y has 10 social and Colony Z has 13+5 research in one consolidated list. Andrew ~SDC~

Aha! My thanks. Is there supposed to be a 'you have fallen bellow 500BC' message? If not, might be a good improvement. ~SDC~

Altarian Prophecy: Production, research and tax seems to lock up in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I have a save game in which I'm screaming along miles ahead of everyone else. Suddenly, although I am able to change the values of the various options in the domestic menu e.g. military, social, research, tax etc, all my colonies are producing 0 of everything. Obviously, this puts a bit of a crimp in my empire. Also, I have just purchased this great game.. I'm getting the feeling I should be hearing music? I have no music at all in my game - all the boxes I believe I should be checking
