If you ally with someone who is allied to your NEW ally..how does the alliance work if someone gets attacked? In my latest game, only Me, the Altarians and the Arceans are left. The two have been allied for awhile. I recently allied with the ALtarians. What would happen if the Arceans attacked me? DOc

It's been sent!
I've been stuck at a 95% plus cultural victory for about 10 years now!! WHat gives!! Doc
No rhime or reason..it's later on in the game. Just thought I'd mention it. Doc
If I may add... I NEVER played MOO anything. SOme of us bought GalCiv because of Galciv. And from what I've read, there still isn't a successor to MOO1 which appears to be the best of the 3. I HATE RTS games. If this game had clickfest ship combat I wouldn't have bought it. The combat as is DOES require strategy in how you use you ships...most of the people saying it doesn't appear to be playing on low difficulty where it's easy to get huge fleets on the spot and waste t
I don't agree with 1 base limit. I have had sectors with 3 resources in them, and I'm not letting some other civ get 2 of them. Maybe 2 in an empty sector, and possibly all on resources.
I thought the windows version allowed for higher res...I want to know if it can be installed on one machine, one windows install, on another HD. The game works without a windows install which is why I asked. When I reinstalled WXP the other day the game on the D:\ still worked just fine without a reinstall. Doc
Install the windows version on the same CPU and use either or? I'd like to try it at a greater res. If I can...I have 2 HD's...are savegames interchangeable? Thanks Doc
I also had an unexplained crash to the desktop last night...nothing special about what was happening. It was my first full play attempt with the retail version. I was just cliking out of a planet screen when it went to the desktop. Doc
It does seem silly that on a new planet which needs alot of social programs, thatit cannot funnel it's over-production into what it needs. Would it really be building a battleship on a ceta-alpha-3 type planet? Think it would be putting it all into planetary improvements....
I had a problem with XP. Somehow I lost the NTLDR, and since, for some reason, XP looked for a Password...I had to reinstall XP and everything else! Use a startup recovery disk, and see what startup files may have ben changed or lost, double check the bios as well. ~SDC~
Thnakyou...I am trying another DL now, seems a bit speedier. Just wish the MMpack had downloaded to a file!
Are people that ordered the WHole Dregnin package and the beta going to get the cd? I can't figure out who is and isn't. I haven't received a email asking if I wanted a cd, so I assume that means I am? LOL Thanks
Somehow, last nights downloads and installs caused a major CPU problem for me. I lost the NTLDR file, and could not boot. I also could not restore my C: drive so I had to reinstall WindowsXP. My Galciv was on my D drive. I deleted it, and tonight proceeded to download Galciv again...after forever..it failed to install. DOn't ask me why! Anyways, I took restored Galciv from the trash and it appears to work just fine. BUT the STardock program doesn't recognize it...is there anyway I can get
GREAT...Chat caused an IE error, everything closed down AND the install DID NOT pick up where it left off...this has NOT been my night..and of course the download rate is 1/4 of what it was crusing at! 50megs down the drain....oh well... :sniff!:
I reinstalle Stardock to my C: drive. Now it is downloading. There appears to be a problem with Stardock installing to the D drive. Like I said, I set my install paths to D:\ whatever...but the erro message shows that Stardock did not see it and left it at C:. Really wanted it on the D: drive but I'll take it! Gonna take awhile though (:( Doc
I downloaded the one from your link...it's in the meassage above... Name: Stardock Central Path: D:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral Exe: sdcentral.exe Version: 0.99a.139 I'm deleting and reinstalling everything. ll I can see is I configured the game to install on my D drive, but the error message says my C: is the install path...don't get that one. Doc
I cannot download at all...keep getting an error message Anyone help on this? Name: Stardock Central Path: D:\Program Files\Stardock\SDCentral Exe: sdcentral.exe Version: 0.99a.139 -- [System Information] --------------------------------------------- Running: Microsoft Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1 System Dir: C:\WINDOWS\System32 Time / Date: 20:08:15 -- Monday, March 24, 2003 -- [Installing] ------------------------
If I may ask...how does the AI use the Civ tweaks? Does it tweak? All, some?

What a difference a day makes...everything's good as I polish off the known universe! ;)
I can't wait!!!!LOL....I've been losing my mind for 2 days trying to figure out what's wrong!
the executable date is 2/13 if that helps.
Off the top of my head I'm not sure, but I got it about 10 days ago, supposedly after they pulled the beta. I'll start it up and check.
