Game fails to load in GalCiv IV Support GalCiv4 Forums

Hi chaps. I have validated my game files, installed the latest graphics card drivers, reset the game settings, reinstalled DirectX and that other exe as mentioned here https://support.stardock.com/space/SHC/1370587141/GC4+Game+Loading+Issues and renamed the GalCivIV folder. I have the latest Windows Updates. I'm not knowingly overclocking anything. All my other Steam games load okay. Only this

[quote who="AdamMG" reply="5" id="3708124"] A ship will not enter sentry if there is an opposing ship already in its sensor range, as well. [/quote] Not an issue with the bug in this case, as there are no ships in range. Someone else confirmed on the Steam forums that they have the same issue, so they don't use Sentry.

Official Galciv3 soundtrack in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

Did anyone else buy this? It's really excellent, sometimes I just put it on in the background. You hear lots of stuff and details you don't normally get to hear when playing the game. Highly recommended, the composer did a great job.

[quote who="Rhonin_the_wizard" reply="1" id="3708057"]A ship set to Sentry will wake when an opponent's ship enters sensor range. Use Guard if you don't want it to wake up. [/quote] Thanks. What you've described, though, is how Sentry is supposed to work, not what it actually does.

Bugs/issues(?) in latest Crusade (2.8) in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

- Sometimes I cannot build shipyards - the option is just not there for the planet concerned (playing as Drengin) - Annoying issue with "Sentry". I issue the instruction to set my ships to sentry, but it doesn't work. Instead, I keep having to press "Pass" every single turn for all ships I instructed to be on sentry in order to move on in the game. Frustrating. Love this game btw. Thanks!

Reply to [Need Help] Mod text.xml files are not recognised in GalCiv III Modding GalCiv3 Forums

I also wanted to ask a related question: I made textual changes (fixing typos) to the following files (Crusade 2.21): [ DiplomaticModifiersText.xml ] [ FlavorText.xml ] But when I loaded the game and checked the diplomacy screen, the typos were still there! Anyone know why? Thanks.

Bug [Crusade, 2.21] in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

Diplo screen mouse-over pop-up when I try to trade with the Onxy or Slyne: "Currently trading with another player" - this message has been active for many turns. Later, I get a pop-up message saying the Onyx leader is busy trading but wants to trade with me, should I decline or wait? If I say wait, this message and the ability to proceed in the game are stuck in an infinite loop. I eventually declined and the loop cleared.

[Crusade 2.2] Diplomatic typos (immersion-reducing) in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

Have noticed the following conspicuous typos in the diplomatic screens. Have fixed in my local copy but thought I would share: [ DiplomaticModifiersText.xml ] "You proclaimed friendship my enemy" "We have an common enemy" "You are allied with infedels" "You have treaties with infedels" Also, a few statements have unnecessary periods at the ends of them. [ FlavorText.xml ] "W

[Crusade] 4 things I would like changed/improved in Galactic Civilizations III GalCiv3 Forums

Nothing too complex or in-depth that the real knowers of the game are talking about. Just a few simple things: 1) Have morale stats tell you whether morale is falling or rising (v. useful) 2) More variety/greater number of citizen/character names (it's a bit embarrassing to have "Sarah Karim" and then "Sarah Karim 1") - this should be easy to do and improves immersion 3) Option of whether to garrison transported legions on invaded planets or keep them in the transports

Reply to New morale / pop system is driving me nuts in GalCiv III Support GalCiv3 Forums

I find I'm building at least two, sometimes three or four, Entertainment Centres on each planet just to keep Morale above the magic 65% number (I believe it is). It sure is tougher than it was to keep folks happy, but overall I see that as a good thing, as it was too easy before.
