Hmmm. Excessive allready runs a lot smoother. But i think immense would be big enough for me. I could allready play gigantic btw. So anyway i see why they dont want to let u play those sizes. But its fun to try anyway.
It worked. The game has started up. It took about 2-3 mins to build the map and now that i am in its still lagging alot. But it is possible. I might have to try the 2 other big sizes that i couldnt do.
Hmm. I seem to have found a solution on the steam forums. If u go to the prefs.ini file in the documents/my games/galciv3 u look foor galaxy size. And set in on what u like. Its liie the quick settings menu. If u do not touch it in game it will open an insane map. I hope. Gonna try now.
Nope it did crash on galaxy creation. Ill try the 2 other sizes just in case.
It gave me an error saying duplicate internal name found. Which i was able to skip.
Ok ive now tried to replace the original mapsizedefs file in the gamefolder. Ive made a backup of the original just in case. See how this goes.
Hmmm. Seems it didnt work. Its still a tiny map. Maybe i should try replacing the original file in the game folder isntead of using a mod?
Ive done the copy thing. Now starting the game. Ive replaced the 3 smallest sizes with the 3 biggest. Since i dont play those anyway. Wish me luck. And ill let u know how it goes!
Thx man. Ill defo try this. Bit i have an idea. Since iam not usin the smallest map sizes why dont i replace those or isnt that possible for some reason? That way if it messes up i can still use my normal biggest map size.
Thx for the reply! But can u tell me how to do that? And should i backup some files in case it doesnt work. And if yes, how? Thx again!
Hello everyone, I've been playing galciv 3 for a month now and really enjoy it! Although i have one problem, i have only 4 gigs of ram, and although the game runs quite nicely i always seem to run into other empire after only 25 turns on the biggest available map setting for me. So i was wondering if there is a mod or a way to remove the galaxy size restrictions. It says i need 5.4gb ram for the 4 biggest sizes, and i only have 4gb ram but the game
