I was wondering...

from GalCiv2 Forums
Is it possible to mod a custom race so it starts with ALL the technologies? (with tech victory off.) Please tell me if it is possible WITHOUT all the other races starting with all the tech as well.

Thanks for the quick answers. look down for the next question.

I've made an empire named The Triforce, any one want to join?

Yes, it is possible.
Just add the techs you want into your custom races' .raceconfig file in My Documents\My Games\GalCiv2.

It is not a good idea with certain techs, however. For example, if you give yourself Xeno Ethics you will not be able to choose an alignment. Completing the research on that tech triggers the alignment choice screen, and if you have it going into the game it will not trigger the event.

it is very possible, but it takes a VERY long time. Here is my list.


































































































































































































































































For some other reason, some of the tech must be researched. Titanium is an example, but most of them work....

Huhh, the tech thing doesn't show up on the forum.....

Thanks. Next, can you make the techs free?

If you mean, can you make the cost of the ship components like engines and lasers free, yes you can.
But not just for yourself.

To do that you would edit GC2Types.xml, changing all the costs to 0.
And if you are going to do that, make sure you backup the original file first.

As far as the choice in alignment, you can go in to the your civ control screen and choose it from there.
