Reply to Crash When Starting a Game (in TBL) in Bug Reports GalCiv2 Forums

there should be no such thing as a tech victory! it's been disposed of (replaced) in TBL. Chances are you'll only be able to achieve this "replacement" victory through the "replacement" for ascension crystals....this victory makes explosions! [e digicons]}:)[/e]

I found the bug using the "divide and conquer" method. It had to do with tech requirements in the soon to be dismantled weapons branch...My Lord! that tech tree's going to be huge!! (requiring a reworking of the tech screen) At this point, it's around the same size as a stock tree...only half it's half written at this point...the rest...or at least the rest of what's already been thought up! Have a good weekend! -Dave

like i said, those problems were taken care of. It just has to be the tree anyway because any race that uses it (custom or stock) causes a game crash when used by the player (it works for the AI oddly)

i fixed all of those minor problems and some others, but to no avail. It still crashes. The latest development in the "case" is that it works when i use one of the default races that hasn't yet been replaced. It only crashes when using my races.

quite frankly, none of these errors make sense or should force a crash.

i thought about that, but who would want to have to look through a thousand different scenarios to find the right one?

the problem with using a scenario to overcome the race cap is that you're locked into using 1 race

Reply to Adding more opponents in game. in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

editing the dxpacks will not help. since whatever object you add does not have a hardcoded name, it will not be used by the game. Instead, it'll just be an empty box like the one shown in the dxpack. There's only so much you can do when editing dxpacks ;) Technically, you could just make a ton of races and then create a map that uses all of them. -Dave

Reply to Making a player-usable custom ship style in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

go to the race selection screen, choose your race and go to the appearance tab. in that tab there is a button that says 'create custom shipstyle' or something like that and click on it to choose templates to add to the style and you're done. To create templates, just go to the ship designer and when you create the ship, click save as template. -Dave
