The Xendar are not supposed to be able to build districts. They are supposed to rely on population.

Reply to Adobe is now officially as bad as Microsoft. in Life, the Universe and Everything GalCiv4 Forums

I haven't been using Adobe PDF for years now. I don't like Adobe's business practices. I've been using SumatraPDF instead. It remembers what PDFs I have opened and where I was for each. It automatically opens all of them (except those I've closed) every time I use it.

Reply to Fleet building in Galactic Civilizations IV Stardock.net Forums

That sums it up. Making fleets can be clicking intensive if you make them complex. I generally make a fleet using medium ships so I don't need to click on a whole bunch of tiny ships.

I don't think the baratak using contaminant worlds will be a problem. You see, like the festron, worlds that have any population of the contaminant will get turned into more amoebas (except yor). The converted amoebas will like pollution like the rest of them.

Will we be able to customize these magic items? Lets say I like the poison from the assassin's blade but I want it on a greatsword. Could I make such an item?

You forgot to mention Impulse. FYI, for those who don't know, Impulse was an online game store that was competing with Steam at the time. As I recall, it was said that Impulse was quite distracting. Both Elemental and Impulse demanded resources and man power; so it left Elemental stretched thin.

Reply to Microsoft Finally Announces Windows 10 Support Extension Program for Consumers in Personal Computing GalCiv4 Forums

Does one need an account with Microsoft to get this? I've been trying to avoid that and other registration since I started using windows 10.

Reply to GalCiv IV: Supernova Dev Journal #75 - Terror Stars in GalCiv IV Dev Journals GalCiv4 Forums

I'm not much for terror stars. I prefer to expand my empire, not destroy what I don't have. Also, who's to say that I'm only allowed one per sector? I'm a space dictator! Anyways, I don't like using the term "races" when it should be "species". I knew what the species pack was going to be before it was released, cause I stopped to read it. I wasn't expecting a whole lot from it, but have it anyways, cause I bought the expansion pass a while back.

Reply to GalCiv IV: Supernova Dev Journal #70 - Cultural Progression in GalCiv IV Dev Journals GalCiv4 Forums

There are 2 things I think could be added that would make it better. 1. Show how many cultural points I'm getting per turn. I tend to conquer other civs (even minors) because their civ capitals give you more culture points. Some other buildings offer culture points too. 2. Let the player pick ideology traits in advance. So when they can afford them, they're picked automatically. I was going to say let the player know when they can afford a new trait, but traits tend to

Reply to GalCiv IV: Supernova Dev Journal #71 - Diving into the Ship Designer in GalCiv IV Dev Journals GalCiv4 Forums

Could we mount components without needing to place them somewhere on the ship? I don't normally care what my ships look like, but I've had times where the weapons are pointed backward, or engines on the front, and thats a little annoying. Really all I want is to control what the ship does without the baggage of how it looks. I'd be fine with the AI doing the cosmetics so long as it doesn't make the ship look stupid.

Reply to Ads in W11 weren't bad enough M$ now bringing ads to W10, as well! in Personal Computing GalCiv4 Forums

I'd rather pay a few hundred for a support extension on windows 10 than to get ads. Ads will lead to tracking your activities to better target ads. This will lead to selling your data for more cash. And so on. In the end, big creepy companies, scam artists, and big government will know a lot about you. Quite frankly, what you do is none of their business.

Reply to Unfortunate issues... Its time I move on. in Everything Else GalCiv4 Forums

As I understand it, Adobe has bought every company (or tried very hard to buy) that made any sort of competition to Photoshop. As such, there isn't very many alternatives. On top of that, they make more money on subscriptions than with licenses. The environment doesn't allow for casual users.

I think they're supposed to be protest signs, not hammers. Though I also thought they were hammers when I first saw them.

Reply to How do you freaking assign a planet as your new capital?? in GalCiv IV Support GalCiv4 Forums

I'm not aware of any means to do so. Its probably a feature that has fallen through the cracks. Also, please be polite. Its nice. I don't think being rude will help in anyway.

Reply to Conquering anybody is impossible in GalCiv IV Feedback GalCiv4 Forums

I generally find that I need to take the homeworld first. Without it, most of the planets I could take would culture flip back to the original owner. With it, most of their planets will flip to me in time.

Reply to Civ Surrendering To Another Civ in Galactic Civilizations IV GalCiv4 Forums

I agree. The delay to influence update is annoying. If you save the map and reload, it'll update the influence. I don't like that inconsistency, before saving and after loading.

I don't think retrofiting should be a tech. I think it should be available at the start.

I didn't know that treasure hunting missions can get that low. Those missions got changed so they have a bigger range of high and low results. You just happened to have got a really low result.

Reply to Potential to be a good game but needs some help. in Galactic Civilizations IV GalCiv4 Forums

[quote quoting="post"]2) Universe setup....is not fun! It is far to difficult to setup a universe to play. Galaxy size is just a guess. Small, Medium, Large...but what are the differences? What is Large? One man's large is another man's small. Also, Civilization distance and sectors is just a pain. I guess the only real way to do it is get your settings. Create the universe, cheat and remove fog of war and then see if you like it. That is not fun.[/quote]

Reply to Shipyard list of available ship types in GalCiv IV Feedback GalCiv4 Forums

I'm afraid the ship designs screen don't have a good management system. You're going to have to obsolete them 1 by 1. However, if you want to permanently delete a lot of ship designs, you could go where they are stored and delete them (or rename folder). C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Documents\My Games\GalCiv4\Designs

Have you tried the normal version of the game (on epic)? I saw it got an update that insiders edition didn't get. Someone might have uploaded the files to the wrong version.

GalCiv 2 is a high bar to reach for. I still play it from time to time. While you guys done much for Supernova, there is still much further to go. I wish you guys good luck. Godspeed.
