You would think that Nerfing would be better than eliminating. Also, some info about how some things have changed over time would be good. Tool tip maybe?

Well. That's disappointing. Thanks for the info!

Mod Tech Tree in GalCiv III Modding GalCiv3 Forums

If I wanted to change the bonus percentage of hyperlane streaming tech, where in the MasterTechDefs.xml file would I make that change? I have done a file search on the term hyper and can't locate it. Thanks!

Reply to Odd Tech change in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

I get that, but that tech bonus isn't the same in later games. It is in the one old save game. When I look at the specs for Dimensional Observatory it shows +500.

Reply to Odd Tech change in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

The only thing I can figure is that this bonus was changed in the Worlds in Crisis DLC. Now I need to locate an up-to-date modding guide. Edit: tested with Worlds in Crisis DLC deactivated in Steam and Hyperlane Streaming is still only +500%. So maybe it changed with 4.0?

Odd Tech change in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

I started a new game with a new modded faction and late into the game noticed that +500% was all I could get out of the hyperlane techs. Luckily, I had an old save and saw the percentage on the dimensional observatory was, in deed, +900%. Then I created a new game with a base faction (Altarians) and the hyperlane tech still only showed a +500% bonus. Okay, new game, same faction as the old save game (it was another modded faction) and still +500%.

Just my luck. I started a new game on a very large map and didn't notice until well into it that those techs weren't in the tree for the custom race I downloaded through the Steam Workshop! Thanks for the responses!

Looking for tech tree info in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

I have played a couple of games recently with two new faction mods. One has the tech to bump hyperlane movement up to 900% and to eliminate the distance penalty for shipyards. I don't have those options with another faction mod. I know that each faction has it's own tech tree, but I am having difficulty locating where the proper tech tree is and seeing the values for each tech in the XML files. This only applies to the hyperlane tech. The reason I'm asking is so I can s

Okay, that was weird. I just updated FE to 1.02 via the stardock store web page and after refreshing SC, FE shows up now.

Fallen Enchantress not in Stardock Central in FE Support Elemental Forums

I went to get the 1.02 update to FE and it is not listed in Stardock Central. I can launch the game fine and it has always been listed in SC. No changes have been made. War of Magic shows up properly in SC. Any ideas? Thanks!

Reply to FE Release this fall? Discussion in FE Beta Elemental Forums

[quote who="Lord Xia" reply="12" id="3235149"]I think FE has plenty of content, I think with good balance and polish, it could hit near a 90 metacritic. I think the pacing is a bit slow, and I don't like the fragile cities that fall to ruin to monsters that then salt the earth, and I haven't yet seen how balanced late game is, but I like what I see so far.
