Reply to Spent 2 tokens, where's my game? in TG.Net Help Stardock Forums

I just spent 2 tokens on Space Hack and now I can't download it. The Email I got just has a link to download SDC again. How can I actually get the game now? EDIT - Nevermind. It appeared in my purchased games section after restarting:p

I can only load autosave games. If I try to load my own saves the game crashes.

Did you know our own moon has water, frozen ice at the northern pole? Plus even Saturn has a moon with an ocean on it.

Reply to Gameplay, balance, etc in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Hmm... also while on the subject.. how hard would it be to include moons? MANY moons in our own system are capable of sustaining life. Sorry to go on. I'll stop now.

Reply to Gameplay, balance, etc in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

This may not seem like an issue to some.... but could you possibly have planets arranged around stars according to current astrophysics beliefs? In other words the smaller, more dense , thus more solid planets should be closer to the star while the less dense (gaseous) thus larger (because if they are less dense they must have a larger size in order stay together via gravity) much like our own sytem. Pluto is just a captured mass it probably didn't form here. I only say this because it seems str

Reply to Where are tooltips needed most? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Not exactly tooltips, but related. It would be GREAT to be able to see (while in the research screen) a description of what each new technology does, even if its just a mouse-over. For example in CIV 3 they used a web browser-like interface to see exactly what each new tech will yield. Or in MOO 2 you could see what each tech did by just clicking on it in a condensed research library.

Great! Thanks. ;)

Reply to More civs in play than specified. in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Minor civs are those that are not selectable when starting a new game. If you choose only one enemy civ, there will still be other minor civs. I'm not sure how many it chooses to add in though. Usually its 2 minor civs when I select only 1 enemy.

Confirmation on disband? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

It would be nice to have a confirmation when you choose to disband a unit.

I still have the same problem with error 13 at coreships.mdl. Anyone have any advice on how to SUCCESSFULLY get the updated game?

Anyone?

Reply to Can't upgrade to Beta 3! Help please? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I tried deleting coreships.mdl and then restarting the install because I read in another thread that this may help. Didn't change anything. Still get error 13.

I have the same problem with error 13 on uncompressing. But deleting coreships.mdl(which is where I get the error) doesn't help at all...

Can't upgrade to Beta 3! Help please? in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I orginally installed beta 2 and ran it/played it for a while. I tried to upgrade to Beta 3 today and I kept getting an error during the download stating that it couldn't find a file. I restarted the install and it continued just fine with the download. When it went to uncompress the files it got an error saying " Error: 13 Invalid Data. 13". It kept giving me this error when I tried to install again as well. So I uninstalled galciv from within the drengin game manager and redownloaded

Bugs and reasonable wish lists here please! in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I would like to start this out by saying. Great game guys! I love it very much. I have compiled a list of things I found that are bugs(in my opinion) and some stuff I would like to see added later to make the game more enjoyable. Nothing outlandish. Just more streamlined I hope. I would like to apologize in advance if any of this has been discussed elsewhere. I am sure I will get flamed by someone because I didn’t troll deeply enough before throwing this out there. And anyone else plea

Reply to Black Screen at Start of Resumed Game in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

Ok. I figured out a solution to my problem. Hope this helps others as well. I removed the prefs.ini file from the drengin folder and voila, no more black screen lockup instead of the intro movies. Thanks for the help everyone.

Reply to After playing the game a few times, can't load it anymore, and have to redownload in Galactic Civilizations I Stardock Forums

I am having the same problem as Dr. Fib. I dont have the Dart dll files in my drengin.net folder altough they are in the windows/system folder and not the system32 folder. I ran the regsvr32 on them anyways and it still hasn't resolved the problem. Any suggestions? I really don't want to download it again as the Drengin fileserver is EXTREMELY slow.
