Jenna Casey was a smaller part of the story(how long was hers, about 1o years?). He developed a condensed story of maybe billions years, or at the least, if we count in that the new old Yor start year if that is a parallel to our years, about 2ooo years. However that couldn't be true, cause we already know that for instance the Drengin took about 7oooo years of time to build and put in place the Torian Stargate. I would appreciate a GC series related book for fleshing details ou

Yeah I remember the time when there where different AIs and Techtrees for each of the core races. Good times. Though I'm a lore guy myself, prefer to develop species looks, lore, planetary conditions, other stuff(haven't tried actually on stabases and ships other than for a specific runs, but have various ideas on those too) etc. But they often if not usually, do go hand to hand with a seperate Tech Tree. Like Nations tend to see things differently and develop different technologies and not s
A slight change in Yor lore I think? (From -GCII events- Memory), Wasn't it that the Arnor had developed robots for the Iconians, which where also one of their protegee/servitor races, NOT the Iconians themselves? And that the Dre'nir(then only known as Dreadlords) infused sentience into the Yor to create chaos during their war with the Ele'nir(then known just as Arnor) which resulted in their mutual annihilation(or so the Elder races thought till the events of GCII). -The Talananth u
Usually I use Paint Net or PSP or both. What they can't do(which is not much), only then I load Photoshop. But one can do wonders with stuff if they experiment and invest time. Back when I started I'd work(for Fallout Tactics, Civ3 modding) with PSP 5.02 and Poser 3 free version and it had a learning curve. When we gotten PSP 7 and PS CS2 for free and Blender went free as well, it was like heaven for us(just remembered I also bought Poser 5,7 versions about that time, so the industry gave us
Yeah that's accurate(As I believe I said on Discord at some point, this is my main program for image touch ups these days cause it's very easy on resources. It's also close to PSP 7.0 in functionality and might superseed it within a couple of years. Has active community and its own plugins and brushes filters etc). If you happen to have Paint Shop Pro(ver 7 I think was a giveaway 1-2 decades ago so maybe you do), it obviously can use PS plugins too(at least for those versions, not sure if the
Yeah the Star Systems editor would be good. I can't remember if that was there in GC2,3 or I was modding it in. And I forgotten that we could add advisors with your mod much prior to Species Editor Pack. I wonder if there is flexibility to add option for Portrait associated Citizen Leader Profile and Name+Surname. I don't get why it isn't an option yet. Sure we'd need 60 protraits or so(20 for the fixed, 20-40 for the random as is now) but we can make that many per race now.
While there is a .dds plugin for photoshop I cannot reccomend that since Photoshop is an extremelly pricey tool for the average, non professional, not using it for profit, gamer. Unless you can do what you need with the trial version. If that is the case, by all means go for it. PS is an excellent program. There is a version of .dds that works with GIMP, apparently it is included with GIMP latest version. I'm not using GIMP currently, so can't verify for you. But in any
Ok, just asking to know which one to get. Thanks for the reply!
Well, how about now that it is released? And I doubt it is useless in its current state. the appended stuff should probably work.
I bought it this September early 1st half I think. I believe it was active then and for a few days after. I didn't fiddle with it since I was still downloading or creating stuff and other everyday life related matters. Thus I noticed it only recently.
There was. It's gone. You can try open the leader pic the foreground and the background pic you want in any image editor like PSP, Photoshop, Gimp, PaintNet and combining them in one and use that in place of foreground. Not sure if it works but I think it does. The leader pic has to be exactly where it would be in the image, since there is overlaping and it will look bad if you're not precise.
It persists cause I got it too. But I don't think it's a bug. Probably requires an event trigger that happened to be very rare. They should add some code for events, like "if event is not triggered within X amount of events, trigger when next event happens". It happens to other events as well.
(Again, not necroing for reason it still aplllies imo as a question) I'm thinking of this seriously: How about an "exceed their programming in succesfully re-integrating themselves into galactic society by actually befriending, trading and peacefully co-existing with non Yor?" It all starts with a glitch event that miraculously hacks into their mainframe units and makes a lot them behave like in the aforomentioned scenario which was an existing scenario they had stored and re-
(I don't think this is necroing a thread as it is still relevant) I think the Gaseous got turned to Ammonia as best it could? I've been thinking "Code-based". It's not Synthetic or silicon. It's not made of material, it's based on re-generative adaptable coding which has absolutely no limitations and doesn't have a specific form, shape or optimal environment. It can generate whatever form, shape and durability a world needs to function. It can also survive into objects for an
Ok, maybe I'll think about giving it another go. The tool seems ok, but it doesn't seem to offer many options for languages. It might help with streamlining eventually though which is what I always go for in most projects.
Thank you! It was the least I thought I could do for all of the people that have an association with one of the best companies I enjoy getting games from for the past 20 years! [e digicons]|-)[/e]
Hello all, have a nice month! Since this is the month GalacticIV is being released, so it's been 30 years of incorporated existence for Stardock and also 30 years of GC in existance in any platform. I thought up, what is really what makes a company great and long-lasting? I figured it's the people. People as in CEO and leadership. People as staff and contributors to the products. Bust most of all people that are fans and buyers of the products, keeping the cash flow for a comp
Good update, especially the workshop. I wanted to see what it was since it wasn't active when I bought. I wasn't aware of the Ionians existance as a civ in GalacticIV. I run a country under that name(amongst others) in a country simulator game. The Korath were amongst the best baddies of GCII so it's interesting to see what they'll be bringing in combat heavy sessions. I always thought it would be very interesting to incite wars between them and the Drengin when playing as top Spies. Li
A lot of certainly and also seemingly usefull additions and alterations. Should mostly benefit the game.
[quote who="PaulLach" reply="3" id="3903722"] Quoting gypsy2299, reply 2 Did you verify files? Do not get mad for me asking, if you did. No, I did not "verify files" because: I do not know how to "verify files"<
Looking good. Good to have more traits for variety purposes. I think Korath vs Festron would turn interesting. Maybe they could add a "hover over" kind of tip for star colors.
Hello, I'm searching the game files to see what I can get out of it and I have come up with some great finds for my purposes. Will post some info I found on the game periodically, when it seems interesting. It might be of use to those updating the wiki, so you can post your finds too if you'd like. Mine so far: -The Galactic Senate image has seats for 416 civs. I counted one segment that had 104 ones, so it seems to have 4 of them and it should be symmetrical, since they usual
I had this problem yesterday. I knew portions of it existed before. Like, when ACGPT searches for leader pics there are certain rolls for it. "More pics like this one" has rolls. And "More pics" has rolls. So I found this pic yesterday and on the same roll there was another one I liked. So I chosen the other one and thought, "yeah, whatever I will find this one later since it get's repetitive"... And then I didn't. And I wanted it really much. I rolled and rolled and rolled and rolled
The game also handles this(sending request), auto. When you search and search, there is a limit. "More pictures" and "more like this picture" eventually runs out of rolls(I estimate there are like 20-30 rolls per). So if you run out of rolls and didn't find something, probably is when it sends a request. To my understanding, the pics are already pre-generated, but hosted in Stardock's cloud or something, so you can't see them(like you know how they get a logo from the logo area but you can se
Well, imagine asking it of succesfull ways to colonize the Moon and Mars and the solar system. Also how to counter a very advanced AI/ASI and make it cooperate with us instead of perceiving us as potential adversaries. What kind of adjustments would be needed to its programming for such reasons, which laws to apply, how to compliment Asimov's Robotic ones, etc. It's like putting it to play with itself for a goal, like Brad often talks that it will be able to provide answers and
