Automated Race Creator?

from GalCiv3 Forums

Is there a way to auto create races with random trees and perks? I want to do a 100 player match, but I don't want 15 of each race (thats boring)... i want a universe of diverse life. I could manually create the races... but that is a lot of work.

Has anyone already done this via modding? Is there a way to do this yet?

I'm super psyched for a universal war sim on INSANE map... but I don't relish the idea of manually creating a few dozen races.

Thanks!

i dont think there is a tool yet and i doubt there will be at beta6 but im betting that less then a week after release mods will start to pop with custom race packs

I want this feature so badly. Just a simply button that randomizes all features and traits.

Just pool some designed races, if I knew how I could send you like 10, and others could fill in the other 80ish. Anything of this mass is done en masse!

Yes, it would be nice if there were a handy-dandy "Export" button, now wouldn't it.

I lke the idea of a random race creator. I like the idea if being able to upload and download races. All we need for  whatcu r taljing about is a pist then the people with races s make websites with linos  to the post.

/Schema/FactionDefs.xsd + Excel (a few formulas to set random within range) + Export to XML google magic = Random Civ Generator.

I asked about this two streams ago. Paul said YES it would be something that will come. It is likely not to be available on release. However we simply need to keep posting about it here. Simply something to make random factions would be very helpful.
