Metaverse Downloads

from GalCiv4 Forums

I was browsing the Metaverse and I see that there seem to be custom ships available for download, yet I don't seen a download button.  In-game, for me at least, the mod manager button is grayed out.  Is there a setting I am missing?  Appreciate any advice/ideas.

You should be able to download from the mod manager in game. Where are you seeing a grey button?

At the main menu when I launch the game.  If I mouse over to the Metaverse button down at the bottom center of the screen, it says "Metaverse is unavailable, please try again later".  I also get the same message if I mouse over the mod manager button.  I don't see a button to log in to stardock, if that makes a difference.

Not the metaverse button the gear button at the bottom of the main menu. What version of the game are you on?

I am on version 1.01.  I did a complete uninstall and reinstall and it worked.  I was able to download some content from the metaverse.  I exited the game and loaded the game, and it looked like this.  It's not a glaring concern right now, I just wanted to make sure I didn't do something wrong.

Go to Epic library and verify your files all the buttons on the bottom should be lit.

If this is persisting we might need liveops to take a look at it.

For me, those two buttons are like that and like the screenshot when I'm not connected to the Internet.  Perhaps that's the problem.

Damn your good spidee. That makes great sense as the metaverse as I understand is online. 👍

Apologies, for the delay in responding, my neighbors decided that they did not want the entire neighborhood to have power.

I restarted the computer, verified the files and it seems to be working now.  I had created a custom civilization, with a custom icon and background, but the verification seems to have fixed it.  If it keeps happening I will reach out again.  My sincerest thanks to everyone for their time.

I can't find the button too. Gameclient is Steam 1.51

Is there any other way to download the ship mods from Metaverse?

I am likewise struggling the same as Maya there... On Steam, updated and verified files (several times), and I cannot access the Metaverse and download other user's ships.

They are not available on Supernova at this time.

Thanks Spider! Out of interest, where can I find that info?

I really don't mind not having access to it - it is early access! I just don't want to bug people with these questions if I can help it haha!

Currently there is a roadmap linked on steam which is subject to change, I also recommend the early access guided tour found HERE
