Reply to Why do they pick on me? in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

America good. LOL.. ROFLMAO .. newsflash, we're evil.. EVIL!!!! We're the type of villain that are so completely insane, we think we're good and do stuff for the good of the people. Very much like Bin Laden, so twisted we think we're doing the world a favor. Don't get me wrong, I love this country. And I love the fact we're so evil we are blinded by its magnificent brilliance. We are the Jeffery Dahmer of the world, Osama is Ben Volonovich, the bully that picked on you in High Sc

Chaining Events in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

I was wondering if it ws possible to chain events in the game. For Example: A race of aliens calling themselves The Vorl has contacted you asking help in the form of 2000bc. option: a - give them the cash. (-2000bc, gain moral) b - hang up the phone and pretend it never happened. (no change) c - have the money scheduled to be transfered to them in person, but once they show themselves, you suprise them with an all out ambu

Reply to Major problem w/game in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Paid off the reviewers? C'mon... Just because these reviewers have taste and you don't does not make them wrong. Seriously, maybe you have bad taste. Just kidding, don't go crying now. Anyways, have you played Master of Orion 3? You can't even compare that to this game.

Reply to Sample Ship models and Textures in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

Hi all.. Its been a while since i've done any 3d modelling. My experience in it was limited to AutoCAD 2000 (yeah, old school and I did mostly architectural drawings.) What I would like to know is where can i get my hands on a tutorial for beginners that can show me how? or better, is there a step by step tutorial on using a 3D program say (maya or 3d studio max) and creating a simple model and putting it in the game?

By the way, is there a random map generator in that? I kinda don't want to make each system. It'd be so cool if there was, then all i'd have to do is generate it randomly, then edit it.

Reply to A Way to Keep Ship Designed as Hulls in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

Yep, that's what I usually do. But I wanted to redesign some of the other races' ships designed. Especially the Torian. I was thinking of modding them out and replacing them with a less ugly race with some ships I created that has some inspiration from the Klingons. I'll probably post some pictures and show ya what I mean later when i get home.

A Way to Keep Ship Designed as Hulls in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

I was wodering, is there a way to save the ship we designed as a hull. Or if not, how bout a way to do it. I have some nicely designed hulls that i want to use to replace the core designs. I want to also use those hulls for the other races. There any way to do that with the ship design feature in the game without having to use programs like 3D Studio Max?

Reply to Minor race tactics in Game Talk GalCiv2 Forums

This happened to me in my current game. The Dark Yor, which I have a close relation with was under attack by the Torian. (I really hate those bug eye ugly MoFos, but have to be nice since i'm "GooD". I don't wanna ally with the Dark Yors since they are an "evil" race and I can't be seen with them.) Anyways, I gave the Dark Yors some of my advance Draco Class Battleships (which is the most advance ships in the game so far). The idiots Dark Yors just

Reply to Notebook graphics cards are scarce! in Galactic Civilizations II GalCiv2 Forums

You can't really upgrade graphics card for laptops. There are some, but IBM line is for sure not upgradable in most part. The graphic chip in most laptops are soldered in. Its similar to a built in graphics card in motherboards. The only option is to replace the motherboard for that laptop and your better off buying a new laptop. One option you may try is a USB 2.0 graphic card. I've only seen that once, but you can try googling it. (I hate google, but damn, its so useful)

Reply to GalCiv II: v1.1 preview in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

YO BRAD.. How bout the captain idea. Since we can already name our ships, give us some extra space so we can put a captain's name in there, say at the bottom of a ship name. i don't know about you all, but I like making my ship personal. SINCE I am the God and Overlord of my entire Empire, I would like to know the guy who's in charge of my ships so I know what family to hang if he dare loses a battle. (makes for an immersive rp

Reply to GalCiv II: v1.1 preview in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

How about a new line on each ships option where we can add a captain's name on that particular ship. And maybe an admiral option where we can add an admiral's name on a fleet. I don't know about everyone else, but i do like to personalize my own ships. Sure, naming the ships is good enough for some, but being able to name a captain for that particular ship would be even better.

You got my support on this project. I would love to see a full blown editor. Maybe you can even open up a paypal account where we can donate something for your hard work. For sure if I use it, i'll donate something.

Sorry Vanir, didn't see that link. Its great to hear that there will be heroes for Galciv III. But 2009 is a bit too long to wait for a feature that can be added into this game. on finding that post. That should stop those people who thinks that the dev isn't interested in a character/hero feature. We now know they are. But thats' for Galciv III and I would like to see something like it in Ga

Teri, no offense taken and I understood that you were Generalizing. That part of the post was intended toward the people who had no contribution to this discussion except to say, "I hate the idea. Stop making it into a MOO ripoff." I like Noxins idea of implementing heroes, and he's right about the limitless exp gain on ships now. That needs to be fixed. But as far as the captain idea. The captains Would NOT cary over the experience when transferred to another ship s
