For the record, about the onlythings that *should* get rejected are obscene or blatant copyright/IPinfringement (i.e., photgraphs of actors, soundtracks, video clips, etc.). If it is anythi...

HELP!

ktip09 — Sun, 05 Jul 2009 20:07:46 -0400

I downloaded the first edition federation ship-pack from nik Dystolic and was able to have the ship names show up in the list of available ships in the ship designer, but the images don't show up. why is this and where do the picture files go? I was instructed to place the ship and ship templates files into my gc2 games my documents folder. I have galciv ultimate edition and wonder if there is some kind of incompatibility issue here?

Did I download a version that was too early? maybe I ...

map editor questions

Valakov — Sun, 05 Jul 2009 10:26:24 -0400

Hello!

2 quick map editor questions - ive desided to start messin' aound with the tools a bit, and ive got it im my mind to set up a long, slow, Minor Ascendant type map, giving the Minor's significant bonus's in the race file, and new personality types so they will better be equipped to spread out.

anyhow, questions!

1) is there a way to Disable the nebula / star backround in the map editor? replaceing it with a flat black backround would go a long way to ...

Metroid Mod Coming!

Scoutdog — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 22:41:25 -0400

I have always been a big Metroid fan since 4th grade, and I have had the idea of creating a Mtroid game or mod for nearly as long. When I got GC2, I realised that it would be a great platform for a Metroid mod. Originally, I thought I was the only Metroid guy on the forums, but an odd little conversation over at Elemental convinced me to go public:

Set at some point between Prime: Echoes and Prime: Corruption, this mod enables you to control any of the major players in the Metroid universe:Ga...

Is it possible?

Polistes — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 18:03:39 -0400

As I stated in my title is itr possible to make the Dreadlords a playable faction? I am also looking for where all the races info is stored and cant find the dreadlords at all. How would one go about doing this? I assume that the dreadlords info is already there and all one needs to do is just make it accessible as a race to select in ther startup screen.

My modding skills are not that great so far all I have been able to do is make it so you can use the Pirate ship styles..

New Mod Star Trek Vs. Star Wars

jordo21 — Sun, 28 Jun 2009 19:42:47 -0400

A brand new mod just came out called Star Trek Vs. Star Wars. This mod is only compatible with TA. It replaces all major and minor races and each race has its own unique ship style, Tech Tree and Planetary Improvements. This mod focuses on conquest victory so you start the game with most of the techs enabled. This mod includes components already made from kryo, AF_Ronin, and Master U.

Star Trek Mod

Renfl — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 17:09:36 -0400

Hello,

Well this will be a very strange request - does anyone have a copy of the Star Trek Mod? the more recent the better...I've seem to have lost mine...Real life got a hold of me and kept me under quite a long while. If you do, or know how I can download it, please let me know. I really need the files from it.

I-Mod Stefan — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 14:10:36 -0400

Some of you encountered problems to access the I-mod sites in the past months.

If you encounter problems, we can work it out and make I-Mod accessable for you with your help, please go to the last page and help us tracing it!

Sry for the circumstances.

None of my mods involving RaceConfig work

Ichimaru — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 12:45:32 -0400

I'm running the gold edition of the game (came with DL, DA and TA). On both machines I have the game installed on the mod selection folder in the options menu is buggy and doesnt display mod names, just a selectable gray bar but Ive managed to enable them anyway.

All of the other mods I have made work perfectly 100% of the time so dont link me to the wiki or FAQ like the last site I asked this question on dispite saying this, I read them both already and cant find a soluti...

PlanetGen 4.0

Kontana — Sun, 21 Jun 2009 10:20:46 -0400

For those who are wanting to make your own planet surface images, there's a good planet generator program here:
http://www.gharat.net/

It's upto version 4.0 now. I've been using it since v1.0, about 9 years. These are some I've done for my own system, done on PlanetGen v1.0

Last one I set to grey-scale and messed with a few colors.

This year, we will start a project we have long waited for,a Fan-Expansion Pack for Galactic Civilizations II : Twilight of the Arnor.

It will be a community Mod, so the whole community can participate on the development.

Star Wars: the Fleet packs

AggieJohn — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 15:12:25 -0400

I have always loved this game because just when its gets stale the sandbox element allows you to do something new and its like a whole new game.

I have to thank Ronin for the newest reemergence for me, his Federation and Empires mod has inspired me to go back and create some ship packs of my own. I think I will, of course make them available here soon, and include them as a option in the Star Wars mod, that we have been working on, sorry it has taken so long, but you can apprecia...

Creating Custom Planets in GalCiv 2

CaretFarmer — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 14:41:11 -0400

If you've been itching to make your own dream planet and don't mind doing a little minor surgery on the game's data files, read on! It's not difficult, but it does require rudimentary knowledge of XML and basic file editing skills. For this example, I'll be changing the appearance of the Yor's home star system and planets, but the steps can be applied to any of the game's races (including the custom race). I won't cover every little detail, but by the time you've finished reading this article, y...

Model Help (texture, hardpoints)

SHodges — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 23:35:52 -0400

Thats a picture of a model I'm trying to get into Galactic Civilizations II. I'm really only concerned with it working in Twilight. As you can see, I've got some texture problems. The majority of the ship has been covered in what I assume to be the default Terran texture. This appears MOST of the time, however the ship has appeared totally gray twice, and I haven't been able to replicate that problem as of yet.

You'll notice silver-gray outlines on the do...

Can anyone help? I can make a custom map easily enough with the editor, but the planets don't have the custom textures from the custom planets file. how can i tie the two together?

Is it possible to completely mod this game?

KOP007 — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 02:40:09 -0400

I've only just got GC2 and think it's one of the best games ever.

Having played the likes of the first game and another personal fave of mine 'Star Trek: Birth of the Federation' - this game is right up my street.

However, I was wondering if there are any 'complete patches' out there that change the game into a Star Trek universe? ie. races, ships and so on...

I used to love modding Star Trek Armada and even Birth of the Federation back in the day...and although my enjoyment of GC2 is g...
