I installed the game from the CD (French), downloaded the files here, then translated all those which were in English I used the Galciv Writer to verify string lenght http://www.ctuit.com/bill/galciv.htm extremely useful who's nobilis ?

sorry, problem of communication (who said laziness ?) I think the score submission problem comes from games started in one version and ended in another - in addition I was meddling with the data files, translating them mainly, so the metaverse refused the submission thinking I was cheating ? so : english -> start and finish a game without changing the version seems to be what funcioned with me ; french -> j'ai l'impression que commencer un jeu et le finir sous la même v
i'm actually using combat transports to raise morale on some colonies, at a certain point population growth seems so high that i HAVE TO get rid of some of them, otherwise morale and production go down depending on PQ, between 30B and 50B i have to start either building transports or morale bonus improvements i think it is a good thing, as my colonies seem to grow really faster than the AI's ones i'm looking forward to finishing this game, i chose a universe too large,
I read somewhere the cost was 100 bc :SURPRISED:
thanks for the link, already visited :D the working of morale is a mistery for me, but I think the "capping effect" is even more puzzling I tend to low taxes / sell techs to avoid deficit / research for morale bonus improvements and so on another point : a planet with 30 B people, I take away 5B of them on a combat transport, morale was 100% at the beginning, it stays 100%, I only lose some production points, but if I ever put them back on the planet the morale falls
excellent site, it was my first contact with the tech tree, had time to learn a little before playing ;) hem ... how much is the maintenance cost of terror stars ? and http://webpages.charter.net/trevorpowdrell/82.htm this is OmniScience (with an "s") (please don't hit me too hard)
hello, can I use this post for a few questions ? :) what is the maintenance cost of DeathStars ? I read somewhere 100 bc, is it right ? if I build an improvement on a planet I expect the spending to go up the amount of the improvement's maintenance, e.g. : I build a stadium, http://webpages.charter.net/trevorpowdrell/Stadium.htm the spending for the planet should increase by 2 bc, and the profits from the planet increase 5%, but things seem different, spending increases muc
je tente de finir cette partie (galaxie "moyenne", c'est long !) pour envoyer un autre score j'ai bien fait attention de mettre tout à jour AVANT de commencer la partie, et je croise les doigts ; jmforhan > tu peux envoyer deux fois la même partie sous le même pseudo, pas plus, c'est assez logique ; je crois qu'il faut continuer ou commencer un nouveau post au sujet des soumission des scores, sinon on va polluer celui-ci ...
will you put a heading to the library page so as to explain how to create / activate / use mods ? congratulations for the promotion :CONGRAT:
maybe this has already been discussed, but in the Minor Races windows Scottlingas have one symbol, if I click on it to trade, the symbol is different, same thing with the I-League, I have a saved game on this one first time I've seen the invisible ship, disappeared from the building list - time to go to sleep, I guess
which means probably here C:\Program Files\Strategy First\Galactic Civilizations\Mods (yes, I was also blind)
fracasse > je ne sais pas, le dernier jeu que j'ai terminé il a été accepté, par contre les sauvegardes que j'avais faites en fin de partie avant continuent à être refusés Pax Protector > je peux t'envoyer les fichiers de donnée de la version 1.10A en français, si tu as la version 1.13 il faudra attendre, je viens seulement de la télécharger et je n'ai pas le temps de travailler dessus la version 1.10A est assez stable j'ai traduit les modifications que CariElf propose
the metaverse accepted a score from me for the first time, don't know why or how because I changed nothing, so what manip have you done ? (just in case ...)
ok, this time the score's been registered I changed nothing whatsoever, simply the metaverse took it into account ... in a few weeks I'll switch to DSL, hope this won't mess it again :D
mmm ... the article describes BOTF as a "franchise casualty", Star Wars made a franchise 4x game, tried to play it a little, but it was essentially void of interest , (I'm not such a great fan of SW after all) "eXplore eXpand eXploit eXterminate" ok, nothing to do with strategy strictly speaking, or turn based then Pax Imperia (1997) took some of my time :)
darkspire > you forgot Master of Magic :D sorry for the silly question, but how do you read "4X" ? (that's turn based, ins't it ?) "four ex" ? do you have a link for Birth of Federation ? it's Microprose, I found Atari support for it, but no screenshots or the offical site
happy new year to everybody LOL
the lockup is always while playing since updating to 1.13 the game goes english but not completely, is my french version the issue ? I have a new one : if I click on the planet "details" after loading a game I'm back on the desktop, but ONLY if I try to read the details immediately after loading :) are there problems with W98 SE ? I'm on my first normal AI level game :D
in France the game is almost nowhere to be seen, bought it from amazon after a very small article on Gen4 www.gen4pc.com, the article gave it a small 65/100, but on the internet things were different, most important when I visited this site and read the forum, then I was convinced definitely ready for galciv2 :)
they NEVER tell who is destabilising me (:( and I do not click away, I'm still young and inexperienced !
tried again, first time got a "Echec test d'envoi" (submission failure), then a load of "ÿ" and then test=1 error=0 nothing for my player :( finished the game again, send it by clicking twice on the button, failure again, but twice the failure message last time I clicked on "forget my password" I received the password and pseudo I am using at the address I am using, so I think I am well identified ? I have two computers, one for the kids which I use when gu
thanks, I used the "forgot my password" and it sent me ... the login and password I was trying to use in fact I registered from one computer but confirmed from a second one, is this an issue ? good to see that it is possible to login from different computers for you (:( if I try to create a new identity and player, what will happen when they see the game id number is the same ? I'll try a research on the forum (again) lorenzo [Message Edited]
also, I think that if you search for a nonexistent player the metaverse should answer "the player does not exist" or something I ask for my scores (lhetre) it says there are no scores to show, I ask for a non existent player (pippoeminni) with the same answer
hello, what are the mods Lord Megatron made to the tech files ? I mean, I would like to make the same in the french version if possible without translating everything again :)
tryed to login from my second PC, although I entered the good e-mail and password, the forum sent me on a page to create a new account, so I'm stuck to post from only one PC ? I'm still unable to submit scores to the metaverse Fracassa said on another thread that when his submission is successeful, he has "submission test (or whatever) =5" and "error=0" I have submission=1 subsidiary questions : - if I save a game before winning, I load and win then I try to s
