Can someone please tell me how I can get into the debug console for the game?

Since 1.5 my graphics settings always reset to Low. I have edited them to custom for a higher setting but every time I set them in main menu they reset to Low. I get the standard message that I need to restart game to hav ethem take effect but when I exit and restart game they are back to Low???? Any ideas?

Any Idea's what could be the issue? [/quote] I have the same issues. I also made sure that the folders are in their correct spots??? Any ideas?

Is the only way to build ships of varying sizes you have to have advanced in a game far enough to actually design them? How come there is a Ship Designer button on the main screen so one could design all they like without having to play the game most of the way through to get to huge and such... What am I missing?

Thank you!

There is a mod that allowed all starbases to mine. With the advent of 1.6 the mod has not been working. Wonder how to "work around" or make this mod work again. Any ideas?

My first two attempts crashed on that screen as well. I then turned mods off and a game started just fine. We must have a mod that is now out of date to the program....

Interesting. How do you bring up the console?

Why can't we access the ship designer from the main menu? Unless I have seriously missed something. It would be nice to be able to just design any hulls/ships without having to be in game.

There is a file 'StarNamesText. Make a copy of it (rename it something like StarNamesText_OLD) and move it elsewhere (if you leave it there the game will add it in and complain about all the duplicate names, and you might w

1. If you hold down the button wheel and then move your mouse you can rotate the ships. 2. I believe it is because mass drivers fire a lot faster than missile systems. He got off more shots than you.... and depleted your armor faster than your missiles took out his.. 3. Combat assignment is in the ship editor when you save ship designs... as in making the escort, capitol, interceptor... etc...

[quote who="wuphonsreach" reply="8" id="3602216"] We do still need the ability to rename things in-game, while in the middle of our play. Specifically, the ability to rename: Star names Colony names Shipyards Starbases Ships </u

I would love to be able to add race logos to ships. It would be a nice little touch to fleets.

Darnit all! Now I have to make more!

I have created 26 new logos for use in the game...

Can someone help me out on how to create the transparency on png files using GIMP? I have a lot of pics downloaded that would make great faction pics but am stumped on how to make them transparent. Any help would be appreciated.

How do you bring up the console?

Thank you, it does answer my question.

Since the download of 1.3.2 When I try to start new game I get a CTD. I have tried with nods on and off. The game goes into its motion where it shows loading map... then just exits game....

Where is the file or what file is it to adjust the starting credits for a custom race? I found where to adjust the standard races but cannot seem to locate the custom race.

[quote who="krbjms" reply="5" id="3585102"] I know there are a lot, but if you have a list of them done you should post it on here, or on Nexus for us to checkout and decide with. [/quote] I posted a text file under the readme on the Nexus for the names included....

By defaults, if you mean the home planets to the various races in the game... then no, it does not change any. Otherwise, the vast majority of names were taken out. Added are names from Star Trek, Star Wars... and other pop culture ideas.

I was disappointed by most of the user created star names in the game and so I edited the list and here you go. There are only 1117 star names on this list. http://www.nexusmods.com/galacticcivilizations3/mods/29/?

I also when first loading up 1.2 I would get messages telling me that certain races I had downloaded were missing techs.... Once I deleted the races the messages went away... Xitak Commune and Federation were the two races...
