User created data files and preferences are in the %mydocuments\my games\galciv2 folder Ugh. How do I change this? I don't want game data files on my system drive where they'll clog up my system
I'd just like to add, I'm not going out of my way to find these odd bits of behaviour. They're finding me. I really do like the game, and if I can help exorcise these gotchas from the code, so much the better.
Here's another one: - start a new game - click Done on the research screen and on the planet screen, so that you're looking at the map - click on the Research button - press the Esc key to call up the Options menu - click Main Menu - click New Game At this point, you're looking at the map screen of your existing game. The map will not be scrollable. - press Esc twice. You're now in the setting
First of all, I want to say: The game looks great. I can't wait to play some more. Before I dash off to work, here are some minor issues I'd like the development team to consider: - Should ownership appear in unrevealed parts of the galactic mini-map? It does now, which seems a bit odd, and defeats one of the purposes of exploration: Finding where your opponents are. - Tool tips don't appear if you hold the mouse st
Here's a series of steps to reproduce the problem easily: - create and save a tiny hull design with no other components - build one of these, purchase the ship so it will appear the next turn - click on the Turn button - you'll see a GNN message, announcing the ship's construction. Click on the Go To button - click on Shipyard - select the tiny ship design - click on Delete - click on Delete again - click on Done - dismiss the GNN message
I went to delete a ship design that I'd made in a previous game. So I went to the Shipyard screen and clicked on Delete. Then I realized that I'd tried to delete the colony ship design, so I clicked on my custom design and then on Delete. Nothing happened. So I clicked on Delete again. Nothing. Then I clicked on Obsolete, which at least made the design disappear from the list. Then I clicked Done. Leaving that screen, I got a GNN repo
Cheats? Cheats!? The game's been out how many hours? Sheesh!
Ah, never mind. The movies are there and working properly. I was looking in the wrong place.
Hello, everyone. I preordered the download version and pulled down the archives last week. Now that the full game has been released, I'd like to know how to get at the tutorials. When I 'restore from archive', I see files end up in SDCentral's temp directory, but I don't see anything going into the GalCiv 2's installation directory. Any clues?
