I am convinced that the AI cheats and is not affected by things that the player suffers, like discontent. The AI also seems to play like an AI programmed for the task of "making the player lose" rather than being programmed to act like a space-faring civilization. I also question how the AI's even on Beginner can churn out tons of builders, colonizers, etc... yet still do other things. I'm playing now and I can only really do one thing at a time because the mechanics don't allow m

What is with these idiot thread titles? Personally I find that using high number of opponents doesn't work because the game does not have the resources(planets, systems, etc...) to support them. I'm playing with 40 factions with Insane Galaxy Size, Abundant Systems, Habitable Planets, etc... and there just isn't enough space and resources to go around, everyone has a couple of systems and spends so much time competing for things that you can only have one but lose all the others.

I think might give the Collectors, Yahg, Protheans and Reapers a try at some point, if someone else doesn't do it before me. I'm also trying to come up with some crossover lore regarding all these races place in a fictional setting where they all exist together. Like in the Hanar background info, I say their religious philosophy has grown to include any ancient proginator races known to have uplifted, aided or nurtured younger races during their evolution, including The Old Ones from

Here's my Hanar Illuminated Primacy thus far. No custom background or ships, though, used a generic logo. If you or anyone can improve them then go ahead.

Could I interest anyone in some Space Orks from Warhammer 40,000? A bit crude, but they function for now. No custom ships, though.

Giving the Hanar pic I was using a Transparency job is proving very tedius and time-consuming, mainly because of the tentacles and the silvery sheen of their bodies combined with the illumination of the background making it hard to see where their actual body outlines ends and the glow of the background begins. here is the portrait I used in GCII, though. http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/Evil_Emperor_Proteus/hanar.png

Better then nothing i thought [e digic

Arg! I literally just finished my own Breen Confederacy and now I find someone else all ready did it! >_ Anyway, I all ready have a few resources for Star Trek races I made from GCII, I will post the one's you don't all ready have.

I was considering making a thread similar to this myself, but focused entirely on simply adding factions. I'm not so much concerned with giving them unique tech trees and such as I am simply having them visually represented in the game. Here are the races I plan on adding, but a group of us working together would make it much easier. I actually all ready had most of these personally made for myself in GCII, but I lost most of the materials I used when I reformatted my computer. &n

[quote who="Sorentoft" reply="8" id="3557374"] Do you have any suggestions regarding the Hanar and their logo? Maybe the Drell as well? I would love to add them, but I refrained from doing so due to the logo situation. Also added installation instructions! [/quote] I just used a Logo I had lying around all ready that I thought suited them. I don't remember which one, though, it was either a stock logo from the base game or one of many that

Where do the XML files go? Also I made these races myself in GCII, including the Hanar. I lost a lot of my stuff though after reformatting my computer, including my warhammer 40,000, Endless Space and Sins of a Solar Empire races. Remember to back things up folks. :( http://i752.photobucket.com/albums/xx164/Evil_Emperor_Proteus/Races_zps0919060c2.png
